Know How To Download Movies Immediately

By Katina Conley

Home theaters are the rage these days. Every home wants and needs a room just for watching movies. Home theaters endeavor to replicate the theater experience with quality audio and video meant just for the home. The visual part usually includes a larger screen or a high definition television. Sometimes it even includes a projection system. High quality audio output is typically accomplished with a high fidelity surround sound system.

When Hurricane Katrina practically wiped out the whole city of New Orleans, Brad Pitt started the "Make it Right Foundation". The foundation was formed to aid in the redevelopment of the Lower 9th Ward in New Orleans. They build affordable and sustainable homes that are true to the diverse culture of the city of New Orleans. The goal was to complete the building of the homes quickly so that the residents could return to their homes as soon as possible. These things have been Brad Pitt's true success.

Brad Pitt has been branded for his pretty boy good looks since he first came on the scene in the 1991 film "Thelma and Louise". On the contrary he hasn't always played the role of the good-looking boy. If you remember "Seven" and "Twelve Monkeys" both from 1985 you know what I mean. While the tabloid press seems to take his personal life and overshadow his movie roles, what is the most commendable thing about Brad Pitt is his vow to humanitarian causes throughout the world. He always donates sizeable sums of his riches to help people that are less fortunate.

Tom Hanks is an amazing talent. It is rather shocking that he got his start in a goofy TV show called "Bosom Buddies". Later he played an amazing role as Andrew Beckett, a gay lawyer who was infected by the AIDS virus and took on his own conservative law firm for firing him because of the fear that they may also contract the disease. Tom won his first Academy Award for that role in 1993.

After that in 1994, he became only the second actor in history to win back-to-back Oscars as he again took home the award, this time for "Forrest Gump". Certainly, there are also many other great movies from the funny and sweet like "Big" to the more serious like "Castaway" where his co-star was in fact a volleyball.

It's fun to exchange opinions on favorite movies and favorite actors. Every person has an opinion and none is more right or wrong but everybody has their own favorites that they like. Some actors astound us with their huge talent, some actors are pretty to look at and then of course some are both of those things. Every so often we admire an actor more for what he does away from the movie set as for what they do onscreen since some actors are just impressive people who use their fame and fortune to aid others who are less fortunate throughout the world.

There is another great actor who is deeply admired for his philanthropy. Paul Newman passed away this past September 26, 2008 but he will long be remembered for great movies like "Road to Perdition" from 2002, "The Color of Money" from 1986 and "Absence of Malice" from 1981. He also played Butch in the well known and ever beloved "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid" from the year 1969. And then of course, the list of great Paul Newman movies goes on and on.

However it is his philanthropy that we can all appreciate. In 1982 with a colleague he created a line of food products that he dubbed "Newman's Own". It started with simply a salad dressing and rapidly expanded to other products including pasta sauce, lemonade, popcorn, salsa and more. When he started the company he established that all of the profits generated after taxes would be donated to charity. In early 2006, Newman's Own had donated over $250 million.

Our favorite movies and favorite actors and actresses may vary from time to time. We may love them for their talent or for other reasons but now that we can download full length, high quality movies from the Internet instantly we don't have to miss any more of the movies that we want to see.

A simple home theater system may only contain a television, a Blu-Ray or DVD player and a set of surround sound speakers. But there are also especially intricate home theater systems that include a number of multimedia options and a generous variety of technological features. - 18780
