In director Roland Emmerich's world, the fleet can flee disaster...for decades. But Emmerich, I believe, made it safe for Hollywood to consider the outrunning of truly insane things - a breeze ("The Happening," 2008), a sunrise ("The Mummy Returns," 2001) and a black hole ("Star Trek," 2009). He also imbued... In this article: Roland Emmerich, Indiana Jones, Tarzan, Orson Welles, Bruce Willis, Sean Connery, Cary Grant, Harold Lloyd, Arnold Schwarzenegger, and Sylvester Stallone |

More on Hollywood, Los Angeles, California
Description from Wikipedia:
Hollywood is a district in Los Angeles, California, United States, situated west-northwest of Downtown Los Angeles. Due to its fame and cultural identity as the historical center of movie studios and movie stars, the word "Hollywood" is often used as a metonym of American cinema. The nickname Tinseltown refers to the glittering, superficial nature of Hollywood and the movie industry. Today, much of the movie industry has dispersed into surrounding areas such as the city of Burbank and the Westside, but significant auxiliary industries, such as editing, effects, props, post-production and lighting companies, remain in Hollywood, as does the backlot of Paramount Pictures.
Many historic Hollywood theaters are used as venues and concert stages to premiere major theatrical releases and host the Academy Awards. It is a popular destination for nightlife and tourism and home to the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
As a portion of the city of Los Angeles, Hollywood does not have its own municipal government, but does have an official, appointed by the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce, who serves as an honorary "Mayor of Hollywood" for ceremonial purposes only. Johnny Grant held this position for decades, until his death on January 9, 2008.
