Another Nice One

Friday, July 18th, 2008

There is such an appetite out there for great nonfiction films. I think we have hit a sweet spot. Check this one out.

Some more nice words about our new project.

Double-edged Sword

Friday, July 18th, 2008

We are pleased to be the host city for the NCAA Frozen Four but the booking of that event did come with a cost. We have a longer trip on the road at the end of the season than we wanted but so do many other teams in the NHL. We won’t complain. We are happy for our fans that championship collegiate hockey is finally coming to the district.

Creating a schedule in a building that hosts more than 250 events per year is an art and a science. There is a lot of work that goes into it; a lot of give and take. Both leagues both have to be coordinated while concert promoters and Georgetown basketball all have to weigh in.

Overall, I think everyone does a great job and does the best we can with the windows of availability. I am happy with the schedule.

Here is the new schedule for our upcoming season. I think it is reasonable and I hope to see you all at lots of games.

Day One Was a Success

Friday, July 18th, 2008

Yesterday was quite the day. Check out SnagFilms now. Drive around it; watch some films; snag one and embed it into your page. It is easy to do. And thousands of people are doing so with tens of thousands of folks already watching films. Let’s build a new way to watch films together.

Good news to legitimize the industry. We were first with this accreditation and we believe in transparency so advertisers know that their dollars are being well spent.
