Can intro into cinema fulfill a visual and performing arts requirement for core college classes? I am trying to get all my core classes out of the way and I have an A89 visual and performing arts requirement lacking. I think it was something I was suppose to have from high school. The intro to cinema will fulfill my literature requirement, and I don't see why it wouldn't work for the A89 class. I know that I need to speak to my adviser, and I plan to, but this seems like a simple question to someone more experienced in college classes than I am. Thanks for the advise and Happy Holiday's!

How old should a kid be before you start taking them to the cinema? My nephew is only a little baby at the moment but I go to the cinema almost every week and I’m looking forward to when he’s old enough to bring along with me. But how old is old enough. The first film I saw at the cinema was Jurassic park when I was 6, I wasn’t scared of the t-rex but my older brother was. I understand that it mostly depends on how mature the child is and what type of film your seeing. I saw some very terrified looking young children at dark knight the other day. I’m guessing that 4 is about old enough to see a film aimed at young kids and maby 6 to see other films depending on maturity of the child But what do you think is about an average suitable age to take a child to the cinema?

connecting a LCD television to an old DVD home cinema surround system.? Hi I have a LG LCD television with built in Dolby digital surround built in. I've connected it up to my old surround sound home cinema system which runs through a dvd player. Its great for watching DVD's with, but thats the only time I can get the surround sound to work when its using a DVD. My mate has connected his surround sound system to his lcd tv and it works all the time when watching the footie for instance. Does anyone know if I could do this with my System, or is it to old and only designed for use with DVD's. Its only a cheap ALBA 5.1 home cinema system by the way. Cheers. How would I do this then?, Would I have to have the DVD player on, or could I connect the tv straight up to the subwoofer?. I've checked in the back of the DVD player and the connections that are not connected up are: Video out 1+2, S-Video out, Optical-coaxial digital audio out. And on the back of the subwoofer all that is free are 2 chnl L+R. Any ideas cheers

Academy of Canadian Cinema and Television film school, is it expensive to attend? I am looking for a good film school in and around Toronto, Canada. Is the Academy of Canadian Cinema and Television very expensive to attend? I think DrlG might be right, maybe I am using the wrong name for the school. The list LeeT provided is helpful, but since there are no links to any of the sites it is just a lot of school names. HUMMMMMM Maybe if I contact the Academy of Canadian Cinema and Television, they will know the name of the school and its location that is similar to their name???? Puzzled...
Do you get annoyed when people bring their babies into the cinema? A couple of weeks ago, I went to see The Transformers and one couple brought their baby along. It didn't cry all that much, but I thought it was very ignorant of the couple. Your supose to turn your phone off and not talk loudy so you dont disturb other people watching the film, but you'd bring a baby along whos screams are as loud as a drill? Bit of contradiction. I'm surprised the staff at the cinema even let them in. A baby can't watch a movie, and it's very loud in there, must be quite destressing and I can't imagain it been very good for their ears. So you can't say they were there for the baby's pleasure too. Does anyone else get annoyed by this?
Would you or have you ever worn a shirt and tie to the cinema? I have and no it wasn't a big movie premier either :) Women often wear smart clothing, heels and skirts etc to the cinema so I think why shouldn't a man also be able to dress smartly for it. Jean D - no I am not joking :) Like I said, women often wear smart dresses/skirts/shirts/heels etc to the cinema so why shouldn't I dress smartly?
Why does my radio signal have a lot of static when I go to a drive-in cinema? I have a Toyota Sienna and the radio works great when tuning in to normal radio signals. I go to a local drive-in cinema and it appears that I really have to drive around several spots to find a good signal as most of the spaces appear to cause my radio static. Why is that? I don't think it's my radio cause the normal stations work fine and clean with no static. There are other vehicles that go to the drive-in too, but they seem to have a wider area of parking without experiencing the static issue I am having with my radio. Would appreciate any good suggestions to eliminate or decrease the static when tuning in to a station broadcasted at the drive-in cinema.
