Comments on: Paramount Invades Facebook with “VooZoo” addon http://themovieblog.com/2008/03/paramount-invades-facebook-with-voozoo-addon The Official Home of Correct Movie Opinions Sun, 22 Nov 2009 04:48:58 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.5 hourly 1 By: Roger Minh http://themovieblog.com/2008/03/paramount-invades-facebook-with-voozoo-addon#comment-132120 Roger Minh Tue, 22 Apr 2008 18:46:05 +0000 http://www.themovieblog.com/2008/03/10644#comment-132120 Rodney, Never claimed to be an avid reader of this blog. I was simply referring to this post. Perhaps, I should have replaced "blog" with "particular post." How do you know I'd agree with you if the post were about Paramount starting a "lame youtube channel"? If the post were about that, I probably wouldn't have responded. Well, I guess we agree that our opinions are different. I'll go read everything ELSE on the site now. Best of luck. Rodney,

We have been asked to stop giving them free publicity with less than polite alternatives more than once. If you read the post, or anything ELSE ever written on this site, we have no problem with studios taking every advantage to promote their films. Hell, just talking about them (good or bad) gives the studios free promotion. I do find a certain amount of irony that you think this is better than some "lame youtube channel" when if the post was written about Paramount starting a YouTube channel, you would be agreeing with me. But if I dont think Facebook needs another addon, then I am just bashing Paramount? Kettle? Black? We are "the outside" since we are and have always been regular movie fanatics who just happen to share our opinion on the movie news on a website. So we are just as "outside" the movie industry as you are, and we like it that way. I take it as a compliment that you think we are no better than you are. I am not a "hater". I simply have an opinion that is different from yours. Actually my opinion is the same as yours, but in a different flavour. Happy Reading.

The writing. 2. Bashing Voozoo and Paramount. I don't see how you can blame Paramount for trying this. It's better than trying to go through a lame YouTube channel. Sure, there are way too many apps on Facebook...but this is actually a cool one. Sure (again), it's in it's infancy, but that's to be expected with any new endeavor. I've used it for about a week now and I'd rather post good movie clips on a friends page than an image or emoticon or something... So, in closing, I like it. I don't think they are "vengefully wrathful," although I would say they are increasingly intuitive when it comes to being genuinely regarded as harmonious with the masses...or something writery like that. -Guy who is sick of haters of the studio system only because they are on the outside Wow…great conversation about VooZoo here. haha

It works pretty well. Some of the clips are just one sentence or even shorter, like Eddie Murphy laughing, but there are some LONG scenes from School of Rock and the entire hanging-upside-down scene from Mission Impossible. Pretty cool. I’ve sent VooZoo clips, received them, and posted them on my FB page. It works pretty well.

The author is on the main page, to the right and just above the topic. I think John's statement that they're working on it is for the actual thread page itself... Am I correct there, Gio?
