A national corporation that rents and sells movies and games. Also will take trade ins and can pre order prouct you wish to own in the near or distant future as long as you give the company a down payment. Typically known for ruining your night by attempting to stick a bendy straw in your wallet and sucking the life out of it when you just want to rent the movie "Teeth" or perhaps "Next Friday"... your preference. Either way, the purpose of this company was once to give you two bags of popcorn, a candy and a drink with 2 movies for just $9.99. Say goodbye to that because now a customer must....
Buy playguard: Put a quarter on your disc in case you want to play frisbee, feed it to the dog or sit on it because your fat. Then you wont need to pay for it.
Trade ins: Buy a game for $60 and bring it back a week later to trade it in and recieve $20 store credit so you can buy something else. But don't think about buying that game you just traded in because its back on the shelf for $50. Also, if you're elderly and seeking VHS tapes, Hollywood will still harass you for your game trade ins.
Buy Powerplay: Want to rent something for one night for $4.85? Especially when the last time you rented was 3 years agao? Nahhh... buy Hollywood's monthly charge program where you pay for so many rentals ahead of time (for a little cheaper), but they'll still hit you up for extra charges when you come back in.
Concessions: They're going to save you $.20 to buy a popcorn, candy and drink all together. What a save!
....Well aside from the great experience you'll have while checking out you may also experience such things but not limited to....
Employees fighting with recylced printers and computer monitors and vaccums.
Employees getting fired and humiliated by life sucking district managers.
Old senile men and women who look like men complaining about late fees of movies "they never rented".
Movie screeners that play over and over and over the same damn music and movie advertisements that get wicked annoying.
Ocassionally, employees that ARE morons and have no lives. Apologies to those who get the crappy person who rings you out.
..... Hollywood Video. A company that thinks Netflix and Ondemand is inconvenient and stupid. Well, I have a feeling Hollywood will not get the last laugh. Enjoy your entertainment experience while it lasts :-)

There are three paths of burnout for a celebrity: Revolving door rehab, paycheck roles in bad movies, and, if you lose all self-respect, Hollywood Squares.

D-Celebrity, who failed at being a part of the Royal family, enjoys grifting off of vulnerable people but offer nothing back to society. Anything they touch, turns to shit.

The act of intentionally, maliciously, and unethically, screw someone out of compensation from rightful gains. It originates from the early days of film production when studios would use accountants to give credited actors/actresses and production crew the bare minimum amount of compensation based off of box office sales.
Actor 1: Hey, why did I only receive $15,000 for a key role in a film that grossed over $7,000,000!?
Actor 2: HA! Hollywood Accounting strikes again!

the phenomenon of young beautiful girls, who get their fame and money by essentially being passed on from an NBA player to a rapper/singer to an actor. Dating around and eventually getting pregnant and becoming a baby momma, securing a bag for themselves and living off of someone’s money for having a child with them .
“oh shes a hollywood whore, she dated half of the people at this event.”
“she has a benz from her baby daddy. dont u know shes a hollywood whore”
“i’m a hollywood whore, i don’t ask names” (straight out of drunk face by MGK)

Hollywood Stage is something that when presented seems to work or seems to be something it really isn't under the hood. Someone presenting a Hollywood Stage intends on getting a deal made to purchase their product and rectify the issues under the hood while negotiating or after closing a deal.
The 1963 Lamborghini 350 GT was a Hollywood Stage. It had no engine and a sealed engine compartment at the 1963 Turin Motor Show.
