I don't remember when last time Hollywood experienced such a dip? Believe it or not it's not only the box office numbers down by almost 8% but also, whatever, presenter or nominee in the award functions was also paid in gifts.

The new ad campaign is titled, "Movies: Just like DVDs, but Larger." Dan Glickman, who now runs the motion picture association of America, felt that (earlier he was U.S. Agriculture Secretary) campaigns "Got Milk?," "Pork: The Other White Meat" and "Beef: It's What's for Dinner" can reverse the falling trend at box office.
