I've compiled a list of some of my favorite movies that I've seen 'On The Lot' if you want to check them out. There are a lot of short films uploaded on the site and it is time-consuming to get thru all the bad ones. So here are my favorites so far, they are only 5 mins each:

'On The Lot' Favorites
The Pop of King
Stephen King is my new hero.
For anyone who does not get Entertainment Weekly....his almost-weekly column on the last page is the best part of the magazine. Here's his latest article and genius idea on adding a Department of Fun to the US Government. He is my hero.

Sugar Reviews
Girls are made of sugar and spice... unless they have roommates who drive them crazy... oh, and lots of emotional baggage and such.

Sugar Reviews:
Witty dialouge, sharp performances, interesting editing, and fun camera angles.
"Three's Company" on the rocks ;)
great movie! Great direction! I loved the quick pacing, and edits, FLASHBACKS, and, especially -- great performances from all your actors.
SUGARSOMELY SWEET!!!
Very quirky sense of optimism with a slam of reality at the end. Loved the humor and loved the pace.
You had me at "retarded puppy"
Great music, and some of the best acting on here.
Great sense of story telling, and you got three fantastic actors, which is so important. Awesome sense of timing.
This so BLEEPin rules! It's like gumbo but better.
There's some nice funny spots in Sugar; oddly enough most of them involve another language: the Spanish phone conversation and Katie's boyfriend flashback scene.
You sure know how to sap it.
Really good movie... I mean really good BLEEPin movie.

Fun.... On The Lot
The website has been a lot of fun. Watching movies, emailing actors and filmakers. Fun fun.
Yeah there's a lot of crap too, like those filmakers that create fake profiles and post 2 pages of *obviously* fake reviews. And then there are those filmakers that post reviews on other film sites with 1 star saying something rude and unecessary. I honestly never post anything that I didn't like about a film. What's the point? That's my opinion, but I'm not an expert by far. And if it was an artistic choice, it's not my place to say it was "wrong" or "what I would have done..." blah blah.
But overall, so many people on here are supportive and friendly. That rocks! In the end, that's what is going to take you far in your success....being supportive and jealous-free and encouraging to others. It only shows the Universe what you are striving for in your own life. If you don't get on this show, it's not the end of the world. Just being on this site, with the chance to be seen by everyone is cool.
Find your audience! That's the goal. If you have 1,000 views, that's awesome! That's 1,000 people that would see your movie if you made another one. If you 10,000 views, but you don't get on the show, whatever! 10,000 people will watch your movie when you make another one. I think that's major.
...anyway....just some quernzy thoughts for today.

Sugar....On The Lot
I acted in a (very) short, but sweet film “Sugar” that is now up on the The Lot website – for Steven Spielberg’s reality show… http://www.thelot.com/. It's basically American Idol for filmmakers.
The director is a good friend of mine and I believe he rocks the film world in a huge rockin’ way. So please take a few minutes to go to the website and watch the film. The more views the better. And for icing on the cake, sign up and add a rating and comment on this little bit of “Sugar” coming your way.
