DOS Ch-333
May 2010, Los Angeles, CA, USA I held the phone close to my ear as the man on the other side explained how things stood. “We’ve finished pre-production on , and we’ll begin shooting next week,” Tobias said, his tone almost clinical. “Lily Collins has been cast in the lead role, opposite Henry Cavill as the prince, with Charlize Theron playing the evil stepmother. We’ve even cast seven real life dwarf actors as the dwarves. Once filming begins, , , , and will follow shortly after, in that…- 963.2 K • Ongoing

“Please welcome the biggest superstar on the planet. One of the best singers working in the industry right now, and the recipient of multiple Oscars, Grammys, Tonys, and Emmys. Troy Armitage, everyone!” The studio exploded the moment my name was announced. I walked out from behind the curtain, lights flooding the stage as the band struck up its familiar tune. I waved enthusiastically at the crowd, their cheers crashing over me in a wall of sound. The standing ovation was honestly a little too…- 963.2 K • Ongoing

“Are you serious?” I asked incredulously. “They’re offering me a knighthood again? Despite everything?” William nodded minutely. “They are. But this time, you have to accept it if you say yes. You can’t back out at the last moment.” “Of course,” I agreed. “I have no quarrel with the Crown or the government now that they are doing the right thing. Don’t forget, if I pulled a stunt like that again, it would look bad on me because my reason for rejecting it has been fulfilled…- 963.2 K • Ongoing

“It’s so cool to see you two together, doing a movie!” the woman in front of me gushed excitedly. “Don’t tell this to anyone, but you two are my favorite celebrity couple of all time.” I laughed and pointed at the camera placed behind her. “Thank you, but I think you just told everyone yourself.” She turned back to the camera and said, “Sorry, Brangelina, you two came second by just a single point. The competition was neck and neck.” Scarlett laughed at that and added,…- 963.2 K • Ongoing

Scarlett stared at me with her mouth slightly open, completely stunned. For a moment, she looked frozen in time. I stayed on one knee for almost a full minute, waiting patiently, but she still didn’t say anything. The silence felt heavier with every passing second. "Yes, no, maybe?" I asked finally. "Come on, say something. My knee is hurting." "Get up then," she instructed, sounding composed again. "Let’s discuss this before I answer you." That was not what I expected. I hadn’t ever…- 963.2 K • Ongoing

“I want to make a feature-length film for this year’s assignment,” I said, keeping my voice steady as I sat across from my film teacher. “I’ve got my own camera and sound equipment that I brought with me to Harvard, so that part shouldn’t be a problem.” Mr. Gardner leaned back in his chair and inclined his head, considering me over the rim of his glasses. “Usually, students go for the two short films. Ever since this class started, only one student tried making a thirty-minute film…- 196.3 K • Ongoing

I stepped into the store after deliberating about it for days. The place was quiet, almost too quiet, which made sense considering how niche the product I was after was. “Whoa,” Peter murmured beside me, spinning around slowly as his eyes widened in awe. “I think we’ve come to the right place to find you a camera.” “I think so too,” I said, equally taken aback by the rows of cameras lined neatly along the glass shelves. Every wall was filled with vintage bodies and gleaming lenses, some…- 196.3 K • Ongoing

“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!”…- 196.3 K • Ongoing

The End of a Magical Era Is the Most Beautiful Thing You Can See in a Theater By Rod Meyer The New York Post is the best thing you can watch at the movies this year. After experiencing it in 3D, I felt like the film was made with a checklist in hand, delivering the best possible experience in every department. From acting and direction to sound design, VFX, makeup, costumes, set design, action, editing, cinematography, and music, the movie excels across the board. I wouldn’t be surprised if…- 963.2 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…- 196.3 K • Ongoing
