Facts
 The film industry is one of global proportions. Production, film distribution and
exhibition reach around the world and continue to adapt to varying political,
economic and technological changes. Hollywood however continues to be
dominant factor in our film viewing experiences. Even if we choose not to
watch Hollywood movies, the chances are that we will encounter Hollywood
marketing through accessing other media (trailers on TV, internet, videogame
tie-ins), walking through town (posters), listening to radio (film adverts,
'exclusive’ interviews/promotions), listening to music (‘official’
soundtracks),catching the bus (advertising hoardings), eating breakfast cereal
(free toys/promotions inside), going to bed (‘Spiderman’ pajamas) etc.
Considering that Hollywood remains a suburb of Los Angeles, California, its
reach and saturation remains global and unavoidable. Our own experiences
will play an important role in this study: the magazines and newspapers we
read, our conversations with friends and family, the DVDs we buy and films we
watch and download. These experiences confirm the presence of the film
industry as a worldwide commercial fact. •
