loading speed. From the popular television network is E! Online, arranged to be visually-stimulating. An extensive search engine breaks down results into the site’s many unique departments. There are scattered advertisements for the network’s programming, and some even discreetly blend into the headlines. Empire stems from the magazine counterpart and features most of its front-page news with high-quality graphics. Along with these graphics, though, are animated advertisements that can be distracting. I Watch Stuff delivers the latest news material in visual form. Constantly new trailers, production stills, or promotional posters for highly-anticipated films are updated to the main page. The large visuals might make it difficult to load the site, but the waiting creates anticipation for discovering the news. Metacritic.com is a dependable source for various film opinions. Reviews from well-known magazine and newspaper critics are scored and ranked using a simple color categorization. Movie Blog is similar to "I Watch Stuff" presenting posts with large pictures or videos. It provides more of an opinion toward the material, making it worth the read. Navigating the site, occasionally a sponsor page disrupts the flow into another area. An additional movie review site is Rotten Tomatoes. Like "Metacritic.com," this site takes the reviews of established critics and scores films. Although a large advertisement takes up almost a third of the front page, "Rotten Tomatoes" has established itself as the number one Internet movie review website. The largest database for film and television is IMDb.com, and almost every aspect of a production can be searched for. However, the site should change its novice font choice; it would visually exemplify its reputable status on the web. Variety is another site that comes from its own magazine and provides an immense amount of entertainment news. There are numerous stories on the front page, but there is no separation among them. I will continue to visit these resources, as all of them provide valuable news to attribute to my future posts.

Entertainment News: Some Like It Hot
Headlines are created every minute in Hollywood, and the Internet is the first place to deliver the breaking news and rumors. Because my blog focuses on the current events in the entertainment industry, I recently searched the Web for outstanding resources that provide up-to-the-minute information. The resources I discovered have been added to the linkroll on the right of my blog. In selecting these sites, I not only applied the Webby Awards and IMSA criteria, but also examined the pro's and con's according to my own tastes. And the Winner Is... is simplistic, with blog posts on the left and credentials on the right. A large empty space at the bottom of the page is detrimental. ComingSoon.net might steer visitors away with its amateur, 80s-looking logo, but the content of the site attracts attention. News stories are categorized (e.g. horror, super hero, DVD, etc.), making specific articles easily findable. There are a number of large distracting advertisements on the pages which also tend to slow down the loading speed. From the popular television network is E!
