...with a movie trailer company, where he worked on various films' media campaigns. The company had sponsored a film festival that year, and Wilson found himself forced to watch around 250 movies slated for competition. "When you see that many movies, the odds do not favor the stuff that the Oscars or Globes are talking about," he says, looking back on the hundreds of hours he spent wading through mediocrity. "The odds favor the opposite: it's far easier to make and finance, and therefore far easier to see, a bad movie...
...past two years. Chicken McNuggets now consist solely of white meat, which has less fat and fewer calories than the darker-meat mix of old.

The following year, when Biggie made an incursion onto L.A. turf to promote his new album, he was shot and killed. (Neither murder was officially solved.) In 2003 Shakur got a zazzy docutribute, Tupac...
...argument in favor of a new National Energy Council. And while much of the book delves into government bureaucracy to an almost molecular degree, all Americans (even those who don't lean left) should flip through. You'll learn about your government (you'll re-learn all that stuff you picked up in high school and quickly forgot) and you'll have a guide for how the next four to eight years might look.
