21 (The Movie) Stuff

ORIGINALLY POSTED ON THE TWELFTH EDITION OF "THE BEAU ZONE" ON THE HARD ROCK HEROES WEBSITE FROM NOVEMBER 2008 TO FEBRUARY 2010.

Regarding the movie 21: I was confused and dumbfounded at Laurence Fishburne's role. He's doing surveillance for several casinos at once? Doesn't each casino have their own surveillance personnel? And face-recognition software is coming in NOW??? You mean it hasn't been around for years and years already? Or have I been watching too much Las Vegas (the series)? I always wondered if the degree of technology that Danny McCoy and Mike Cannon were using was really as sophisticated as what the casinos use. But I always figured it was to SOME degree computerized, for the TV show to even suggest what they were presenting. Laurence Fishburne's job and character reminds me in so many ways of a '70s movie. Oh, and one more thing: Too bad the gang didn't play blackjack at the Mirage - once Jim Sturgess saw all that Beatles Love paraphenelia around, maybe it would have inspired him to break out into Beatles songs!
