Not so hard. There are lots of ads for movies, etc. There's also a subscription portion where, if you're in the entertainment industry, you can get additional information, features, etc.

This is becoming a bible of the Industry, FWIW. There are also a small number of startups in Southern CA creating similar sites based on the premise that what producers, agents, and talent REALLY need is a website for them to connect and form a holistic online community. I sense that those VC dollars are unlikely to ever find a profitable exit, but whatever.
