The television season is 9 months. It’s like having a baby, except the baby is hiatus.

Give it a rest
May I be the first to say that while I like the judging system on American Idol Paula and Simon need to give it a rest.
All those two can do is argue and interupt each other. While they both need to stop I have to say Paula needs more help than Simon. Simon will argue with Paula's critiques, but all Paula will do is take pot-shots at Simon. Was it really nessecary to tell Simon Kanye's "Heartless" is about him? Paula is totally covering her lack of wit with bitchiness. So much fun could be made of her - last year she judged David Cook on a song he hadn't sung yet!
Seriously though guys - give it a rest. It's bad TV.

Sucking the fun out of it
I feel a little bad for saying it, but I just can't not. Some people are just film snobs. The worst part is they don't even know it.
While I will be the first to argue for the phenominal film that no one in the mass audience likes, I also have to champion the big movies that so many film buffs are so ready to dismiss. Just because a movie comes out from January to October does not make it by rule a bad movie, and the critics that like it are not delusional. Some of these movies are genuinely good if not great.
Too many people I went to film school with lost the ability to have fun at the movies. They lost the ability to realize that they could sit back, have a blast and just enjoy where the movie they are watching take them and you can still keep your brain turned on while enjoying it. Behind the flash, special effects and hundreds of millions of dollars some of these movies are well written, thought out and genuinely good.
These are the movies that remind me why I got into the movies to begin with. These are the movies that excite you on a whole different level than an art or intellectual film can. They make you feel like a little kid who has discovered the movies all over again.
Please, when you watch movies this summer remember that yes, there are the Michael Bay's of the world, but there are also the Ron Howard's, JJ Abrams & James Cameron's. Try to let go and have some fun again.
