and Audio Links
Internet
Movie Database http://www.imdb.com/
The Internet Movie Database is the quintessential online movie guide.
All Movie
Guide http://www.allmovie.com/
The All Movie Guide, while not having as complete amount of movies
as the Internet Movie Database, allows for more ways to cross-reference
and gives a better plot summary and production credits.
Rotten Tomatoes
http://www.rottentomatoes.com/
This website combs all of the movie reviews available and assigns
each film a “freshness rating.”
If a movie is “fresh” it has over 60% positive reviews.
If a movie has less than 60%, it’s a rotten tomato.
AccuRadio
http://www.accuradio.com/
Touted as the “Internet radio YOU control” this website allows
you to stream for free your favorite music genres.
Choose from such channels as A Flock of Eighties or Country
Twang, or such sub-channels as Boy Bands and Blondes or Two-Hit
Wonders. |
