Movies and Television and How they follow us

Movies and Television follow us in our daily lives just about everywhere we go. Today's technology allows it. from mobile devices like our cell phones and ipads we can stream live tv events like football and basketball games, to movies like Avatar and Transformers right to our phones. We no dont have to rush home to catch the game or to catch our weekly programing we can see alot of those programs right in the palms of our hands. just like i have the game pulled up on my cell phone while im typing up this blog, brings a new meaning to couch potatoe. Movies and television is a big part of all of our lives its one of the biggest sources of our daily entertainment. everywhere we go theres something on the televisions from sitting in a dr's office waiting room to sitting at a table waiting on our burgers and fries. I took my son to McDonalds a couple months back and he was even able to catch a new episode of spongebob while we ate. Another example was last month my wife and I went to the philadelphia eagles and jacksonville jaguars football game. We rode the water taxi from our hotel to the landing and during the ride we watched the pre-game on my cell phone and when we got to the landing we watched espn at the bar while we had a few beverages. After that we took another taxi over to the stadium and while we stood in line we watched highlights of the games that have been played earlier in the day. Movies and television is an even bigger part of our lives now than what it was when i was a child and it grows more and more everyday!

  1. It's so crazy how tv is really everywhere. I don't get a chance to watch a lot, but no worries because between my DVR and Hulu, when I do get a chance to watch something, I can pick exactly what to watch. We are no longer limited to hoping something good is on tv. Even new HDTVs have apps. All you is an internet connection, but you don't even have to have your PC hooked up to the TV. There is a device that does it for you. And one more thing... The best things about watching shows online or on your DVR--limited or no commercials.
