Ben Affleck Honored

 Next week Ben Affleck will be honored by The Casting society Of America. they will be awarding him with the lifetime achievement award during its 28th annual Artios Awards.The CSA also is giving Lora Kennedy its Hoyt Bowers Award and Harvey Fierstein its New York Apple Award.
This article was important because it shows that other people in the industry recognize your achievement. Your hard work is also seen by other in the field not just you.
 As a future filmmaker this was important for me because you can be given many awards or little but a lifetime achievement award means a lot. Yet does it also mean that you already pasted your peek and did all you could do.
 The question that rises in my mind is what is to do now?With this award do i just fade away or is there more for me to create, more to do?

Walking Dead NA here's a movie

 So Dish has released a statement on there Facebook this week saying”DISH understands that ‘The Walking Dead’ on AMC is a very popular series. To show appreciation, customers will be provided ‘Tales of the Apocalypse,’ a free scary movie fest every day in the month of October." Really DISH you can't just distract people with a free movie fest.
This caught my eye because being a Walking Dead fan of both the show and comic, would still be upset or already be with another television provider to watch the channels i want to watch.
As a consumer it terrible that your paying for this company to watch TV but the company really decides what will be aired so why chose.
The question that raises is DISH practically insulting viewers with this i mean we don't want want to see some horror movie we want the walking dead. I mean come on people it's not the same.
