Ultimate Movie-Goers Experiences: From Cruises to Alaskan Resorts

August 20, 2012 /

Even as cinematography reaches new heights never before dreamed of by movie goers or movie makers, many modern theaters lack what the aficionado might refer to as atmosphere. Gone are the grandiose 18th Century theaters with elaborate molding or fabulous Art Deco architecture that reigned when live performances were the norm. Go into most any theatre from Baltimore to San Diego and it’s virtually impossible to distinguish one from another. If ambiance is an important part of the movie going experience for you, consider one of these venues.

5. Cine Thisio in Athens, Greece

Many outdoor movie theaters call Athens home during the summer months, but for the most spectacular view, try the Cine Thisio. Opened in 1935, it is also the oldest outdoor theater in Athens. Patrons enjoy the night viewing the best, but at any time of day or night you can see the Acropolis and the Parthenon.

4. Alamo Drafthouse in Alamo, Texas, United States

This theater combines a guaranteed quiet viewing along with great food and excellent beer. No children under the age of six are permitted, and there is a zero tolerance policy for interruptions during the film. Patrons also enjoy no advertisements before the film.

3. Prasads in Hyderabad, India

More than just one of the world’s many entertainment complexes, the Prasadas boasts the unique title of being the largest 3D IMAX theatre in the entire world. Not to be confused with the largest IMAX screen in Sydney, Australia, the Prasads is in possession of a 3D IMAX screen that measures a whopping 72 x 92 ft. This venue is also great for children of all ages.

2. The Castro Theatre in San Francisco, United States

Among the palace theaters that became popular during the first half of the 20th Century, The Castro Theatre entered the scene in 1922 and remains as one of the few relics of this grand era of architecture. Its Mexican cathedral-inspired styling embodies detail rarely seen in today’s buildings.

1. Celebrity Cruises

To see the latest blockbuster films as well as enjoy live entertainers like musicians, magicians, vocalists and more – the best possible overall experiences are Alaskan Cruises. Here, guests can enjoy days of dancing, listening to music, seeing the best films, dressing up, partying, dining and generally having a blast. The joy of celebrity cruises is how guests are pampered. This is an experience that truly must be enjoyed to be believed.

For movie and cinema enthusiasts, these venues offer the best experience possible – adding the benefit of ambiance to an already spectacular flick.

You Don’t Have To Be A Millionaire To Make A Difference

June 9, 2012 /

A lot of people operate under the silly belief that you have to be extremely wealthy to be able to help people. While it is true that the people who produce astonishing wealth tend to have the habits that make charitable efforts the most effective, you don’t need to be rich to make a big difference. In fact, if you take on and model some of the habits that wealthy people tend to have, both your giving efforts and your earning efforts will receive a boost.

Thinking Ahead

When you think ahead, as Christine Gibbs does, you can plan for things that may happen instead of thinking only about what has happened and what is happening right now. While a lot of people don’t put a lot of thought into the future beyond preventing problems, with a little bit of positive foresight you can accomplish some great things.

What a lot of folks don’t realize about the wealthy is that this is one of their biggest advantageous traits over most other people. Instead of just focusing on today, focus on what your contributions can be doing tomorrow; even next year or several years down the line. With a long term goal, today’s efforts seem like time well spent.

Providing Value to Others

Some people believe in the zero sum mentality that comes out of scarcity. If you think scarcely, you’ll naturally believe that everything you give to someone else will hurt you in some way. Interestingly enough, the wealthiest members of almost every society in the world understand that when they give to others, they’re also helping themselves to gain more in life.

Providing value is the same as giving to others. When someone starts a business with the intention to serve others, that individual can make a fortune simply by providing value. When you give to others, you can experience the same emotional benefit, and possibly advance society as a whole. While there’s no guarantee that giving to a charity will make you or society richer, it almost never hurts.

Sticking it Out

One of the other major advantageous traits that wealthy people have is the above average ability to stick it out regardless of initial failures or problems that come up. Life is full of problems and no one has ever been able to escape all of them. This is a fact of the adult world. However, the more problems you can push through and overcome, the better you tend to do in life.

Maybe you aren’t making as much money as you’d like to make. Maybe you aren’t experiencing much fulfillment at work, and you feel like a zombie. But when you give to other people and keep making the effort, ultimately it pays off.

May 25, 2012 /

Anyone who has ever had a dream or even ounce of interest in looking or acting like a celebrity knows how much work is involved. Not only do you have to work on perfecting hair and makeup, but you have to look good physically and have an extensive fashion collection. While it might not be possible to make a supermodel or celebrity overnight, some mobile apps have tried to achieve the impossible and help others become “pseudo” celebrities or supermodels.

The following are some must-have mobile apps that every person needs to consider downloading. So grab your phone, choose one of the many no contract cell phone plans, and start working on becoming a celebrity or supermodel look-a-like.

Touch Closet

Celebrities have personal assistants that personally go through their wardrobe and catalogue when they’ve worn certain outfits. While you might not be able to afford a personal assistant, the Best Wardrobe Organizer can help you catalogue your outfits so you never wear the same outfit twice in a row. Just snap a picture of the clothing you are wearing, place it in the calendar and you can see what you’ve worn in the past or plan on wearing in the future.

WhoWhatWear

If you want to pick out fashion ensembles that are similar to the celebrities, the WhoWhatWear app is a must-have for you. This mobile app shows you photos of celebrities from all over the world, and features a how-to guide on how you can recreate that look for less. Style suggestions are updated daily, so you’ll never have to worry about sifting through old, outdated fashion ensembles.

Ask a Stylist

Ever wonder what you might look like in a certain fashion ensemble or pair of shoes, but have no one to ask? Ask a Stylist is a free mobile app that allows you to upload photos of the fashion accessory or fashion ensemble you choose to wear, and ask a professional stylist to the stars their opinion. All you have to do is pick a personal stylist who matches your likes and interests, and send them a quick photo of what you want to wear. You’ll receive honest, straight-forward advice that allows you to pick fashion ensembles that have you looking and feeling your best.

Style.com

You can’t look and feel like a celebrity or supermodel if you don’t know what is hot or not. The Style.com app is a great way to stay on top of all the latest news and trends in the fashion industry. This information is instantly downloaded to your smartphone, and you can use it to make judgments on what to wear.

Perfecting the supermodel or celebrity look can take years and lots of money, but with the help of these mobile apps it can take just a few minutes. If you ever had a dream of becoming a celebrity or supermodel, then download these apps and you will be one step closer to looking and feeling like one.
