----Brought to you by Yahoo! (Nasdaq:YHOO), there is now a better
way for consumers to find movies they'll like before heading to the
theater or popping in a DVD
. Truly personalizing that experience and making it as
relevant as possible for each consumer is a
significant step forward
and we're very excited to be involved. Greater variety improves the consumer
experience
and directly impacts the retailer's bottom line by surfacing
profitable back-catalog
and other 'long tail' inventory for
users who might not otherwise be exposed to it. That advice
is according to the editors of
MovieMaker, who in its winter 2005 edition, evaluated the top ten
best cities
for independents to live and make movies.
"We congratulate the filmmakers on their
nominations, and we take
great pride in their loyalty to the KODAK films that help bring their
stories
to life," said Eric Rodli, President of Entertainment Imaging
