is not the latest excuse for the federal government to harass us at the airport but a Samuel (Star Wars, Pulp Fiction) Jackson movie that is a shoe-in to sweep next year’s academy awards. Okay, it might not sweep the Oscars, but this film does demonstrate how the Internet can empower audiences to effect the production and marketing of movies.
