STS Ch-44
“If markets are supposed to aggregate information, then a lot of what we call market failure looks more like an information failure. The price is wrong because the knowledge behind it is incomplete.” I finished answering the question my economics professor had posed to the class, one that no one else had managed to satisfy him with. I wasn’t entirely sure this was the response he’d been fishing for, but I knew one thing for certain. Everything I’d said was factually correct. “Perfect!”…- 231.0 K • Ongoing

“Okay, where do you want to go?” I asked, my hands resting on the wheels of the Porsche 928 as I drove at a relatively slow speed for practical reasons. “I don’t know, Josh. I haven’t given it a lot of thought,” Daryl said from the passenger seat before turning around at the sound of a honk. “Oh, shit! Here he comes,” she whispered exasperatedly. “Here who comes?” asked Ron from behind me, turning to look out the back window. “My manager,” Daryl replied casually, as if…- 231.0 K • Ongoing

“Oi! Wanker! I need those lights o’er here!” A man came rushing over with the lights toward the first AD, who was coordinating the crew on set. “Did he just call a crew member a wanker?” Tom asked in bewilderment. I shrugged. “Could be his nickname or something. I really don't wanna ask.” Tom laughed and shook his head. We admired the view of Northern England spread out before us. Away from the bustling environment of a big city like London, this was the real deal. Sure, the…- 231.0 K • Ongoing

December 2010, USA Patty stared at her screen restlessly, refreshing the page every few seconds. “You know, refreshing the page won’t change the timer,” Claire commented idly from behind her. “The video will still be released in ten minutes. No need to keep refreshing it.” Patty turned to her friend, a little incensed. “Do you have any idea how long it’s been since one of Troy’s songs was released? And this time it’s with Rihanna. ‘Closer’ and ‘We Don’t Talk Anymore’…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

The movie began with Noah Hunter waking up in bed with a start. He didn't seem to be wearing anything, but a sheet covered him from the waist down. He rubbed his face tiredly before looking at the other side of the bed, where an equally naked redhead was lying on her stomach. Only her back was visible, and her lower half was similarly covered by a sheet. “Shit!” he cursed out loud, and then the movie went into a flashback. “Bill!” one of Noah's friends called out to the protagonist and…- 231.0 K • Ongoing

Chicago Sun-Times — Review by Roger Ebert is a surprising entry into the growing slasher genre, one that demonstrates far more craft than its lurid premise might suggest. While clearly inspired by the success of , the film distinguishes itself through confident direction and an unexpectedly effective narrative misdirection. The film’s greatest strength lies in its manipulation of audience expectations. By positioning one character as a likely suspect, only to subvert that assumption in a…- 231.0 K • Ongoing

“Thank you for coming here to see me,” I said, shaking hands with the man in front of me. John Landis gave me a nod. “It’s okay. I’ll do anything for my film. It’s my baby.” There was something in the way he said it that made me feel a little uncomfortable in his presence. Nonetheless, I indicated for him to take a seat on the couch opposite me. “So,” I began after a few moments of silence, “Why do I have a feeling that you came here not just to discuss the script with…- 231.0 K • Ongoing
