Yeah, but their parents can get one for them, can't they?
It was lucky for them all that it was a slow day at the alley, with only six or seven other kids bowling when they walked in. Emily took the lead and was about to pay for the whole group when Troy overtook her and pressed his credit card forward.

Thank you! You just made my day.
Also, Warner is not the label, it's the distributor. Troy is using his own label. It basically means that he himself is responsible for promoting his album.
He shook his head in reminiscence, "Anyways, what these record labels do is that initially they will bear all the costs of recording sessions, music videos, everything, but in exchange, they give you only 15-20% of what they earn. So if your album earns them, say, a million dollars, you will get only $200k at max. But if you were to record and promote your songs on your own, leaving out the distribution part, it may cost you around half a million initially to record an album and promote it, but over time, you can earn much more than you ever could with an outside label. Not to mention, you will retain full rights to your songs for eternity."

He said he will start, but he never did because he didn't have the time.
"She tried," I said honestly. "She tried hard. But I didn't let her. That reminds me, I want to restart my martial arts training. If I hadn't stopped all those years ago, the situation would have been much better today."

He is. I do realize that, and this would have consequences that you'll see very soon.
Chill out. I knew what you meant.

No. When it released it was the greatest movie, far superior than the first two (and it still is IMO as far as moviemaking is concerned.) It's just a small minority of dedicated HP fans who don't like it, but I don't think anyone can satisfy them.

FYI, this is a real review to the original GoF that I found on RT.

Troy Armitage knows that he was someone else before his birth in 1989. Yet, that didn't help him much when he was dealt a bad hand in life. A chance encounter led him to path that would make him the biggest superstar in the world. A showbiz story starting in 1997 and (hopefully) going all the way forward to 2020s if the readers keep supporting.

Yeah, but it was revolutionary for 2007. That movie started the whole slo-mo trend in movies.
"Zack Snyder." Troy went silent for a few moments, so Tobias explained further, "He's mostly done music videos and short films so far, but he's got a good reputation in the industry. His work is well-acclaimed. I can send you a rough script of the idea—"
