MICHAEL DEMBS, who does video critiques for the Detroit Free Press on Fridays, owns Video Zone in Warren, but throws caution to the winds insofar as business is concerned . . . and gives honest, true-feeling opinions about the very videos he rents out. For example, Die Hard II, still making millions . . . "Plot holes. Webster defines them as lapses in logic. I can accept a plot hole or two. But by the time the 87th rolls in I'm headed for the exit. "This sequel to the 1988 hit is exciting and some may say it's entertaining. Sure, if you're willing to overlook 87 or so plot holes. I am not will- ing to do that. It's a cheat to have a character overhear a conversation in a crowded room, a conversation that if he didn't hear it, the rest of the movie couldn't exist. Or a major character happening to see a piece of luggage in a crowded airport and auto- matically knowing who and what that piece belongs to. It's lazy and we as an au- dience should be outraged. "Instead we're too lazy to complain and we accept it and that gives the moviemakers the green light to produce more imbecilic stories. Let's complain. They could have made this an intelligent ac- tion picture. Instead it's an exciting movie for knuckleheads." BEGINNING THIS spring, the new Pine Knob is expected to have 50 to 70 events per season . . .
