Hi guys,

Not sure if you're aware of the Hollywood Stock Exchange. It's an online game where you 'buy' (fake money of course) shares in movies and celebrities and music bands etc...

Plenty of stuff there. I just started playing it. I own 1000 shares in Bond 20 :)

http://movies.hsx.co...ail?symbol=JB20 is the Bond 20 link
http://movies.hsx.co...il?symbol=PBROS is the Pierce Brosnan link

Take a look. It's quite a fun game!

I'm so glad someone else is playing it Zencat, and you of all people :) Fantastic!! ;)

I started playing a few days ago. I've made only $14,000 so far :) Not too much but hey I'm just getting started. I have bought shares in Bond 20 of course!!

Anytips for a newbie like me?

I got some in Serendipity which opens tomorrow. Kate Beckinsale, wow!! :)

And I just added you to 'My League'. Guess what, you're first :)

Yes, I play the Hollywood Stock Exchange, Blue Eyes. Thus far I've made $152,648.40 on BOND 20. (I've lost money on my Pierce stock, however.)

My username there is, you guessed it, "zencat." Ad me to your league if you like and I'll ad you to mine. Great fun. Just wish the money was real as I've made just over 1 million dollars.

One word: sequels. Just like the real Hollywood, it's about the only sure thing. It doesn't even have to be good to make money.

And buy early. If you buy near the opening weekend you're gonna pay the top price.

Excellent Trevelyan! Great game isn't it :)

I've added you to My League. Which I don't think is quite up to date. My networth on this page is $10,000 lower than on my movie page. :) Oh well!

My shares are up in general, especially Bond 20!
