Illicit liaisons, romantic fairy tales, or just plain goofball mishaps take place on any given day and can serve as cinematic fodder. That's precisely the idea behind a new partnership between <a href="http://www.massify.com/">Massify</a>, an online network of filmmakers, actors, and crew members, production company Killer Films, and New York's <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/Ace+Hotel+New+York/local/1313">Ace Hotel</a>. "One hotel. Thousands of stories." reads the tag line to a recent contest sponsored by Massify, Killer, and Ace.

The Amanjena is, as the name suggests, a part of <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/tag/amanresorts">Aman Resorts</a>, a luxury hotel collection with truly exotic locations. And it's so exotic that there aren't even standard room accommodations here. Just "Pavilions and Mansions" which start at $1,050 a night (and that's before taxes.) So we're guessing that this hotel might just be a filming location and not a place where the cast and crew are shacking up juliana 2009-11-16T09:41:16-05:00 Los Angeles: Celebrate Halloween Where 'Ghostbusters' Was Filmed http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2009/10/16/175843/91 <![CDATA[<img src="http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/32083/millenniumbilt1.jpg" class="top"> 'Tis the season for a parade of hotel parties. Holiday dinners in the hundred dollar range are just around the corner, but it's <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/tag/halloween hotels">Halloween</a> that precedes the hanging of tinsel from marble-tiled lobbies. Most of the upcoming events we've heard of are the standard ballroom/costume/D.J. affairs that attract crowds of 20-somethings. Raucous fun, maybe, but they also tend to bring out scenesters in droves, which leaves those looking to celebrate over classy cocktails in a lurch.

It looks like an epic war film shot in the desert where hes carrying a small boy to safety. There were about 200 extras and Samantha was wearing a short, silver body hugging number with a cream wrap.
