1. When walking into a movie theater and choosing a seat, the appropriate interval all depends on how full the theater is. When a person pays for a movie ticket, they understand the possibility of not receiving the ideal seating. Most movie theaters operate on a first come first served basis. In my estimation, the appropriate spacing between people at a movie theater is one seat. I don’t have a problem sitting next to a stranger in a movie theater with one seat separating us. I understand sometimes sitting next to a stranger in inevitable, I have had to do it many times. Movie theaters become very dark once the movie starts, which causes people to feel uncomfortable because they are vulnerable without sight.
I feel that the appropriate

Most people are not going to be able to experience wizard magic, space, or getting stuck on a sinking ship. A lesson can be learned from any situation, whether it’s what to do, or not to do. Another positive is that movies teach diversity. These popular commercial films are full of different ideas, people, and elements. When people watch diverse movies, it allows them to become more open and accepting in our everyday lives.
A negative aspect is the violence that is included in these movies. Children and teens have seen these movies and get the ideas in their heads that it is okay to emulate these actions. Young minds are malleable, which could lead to different problems in the future of these young people. Another negative aspect of these movies is that they distract from life. This could also be a good thing because people need breaks sometimes, but we can’t be distracted all of the time. If we had a choice between working and entering a world unlike our own through movies, most people would probably choose to be somewhere else mentally.
3. I chose the very beginning of the Bourne Identity (2002) to look for camera techniques because this portion of the film will be the first seen by the viewers. In the opening scene the viewer is underwater looking up at Jason Bourne floating on the surface of the ocean. I feel this camera angle was employed by the filmmaker to show the audience that Jason Bourne is not a bad guy. We do not know who Jason is at
Films and movies hold much than we can guess, they reveal a lot of vices and rots that are happening in society. Others give a history of a particular society, its beliefs, culture and their standard of living in the society. Films are used to disclose the social responsibilities in a given season and customs, moral values, societal worries and other cultural practices.
Nevertheless evaluating movies on things such as plot, theme, and the protagonists’ moment of true exposure, opens the viewer up to many other reasons besides entertainment to watch movies.
Having to plan on whether or not to see a film in theaters has always been a hassle for movie-goers all the time. Today, movie theaters aren't always the most tempting choice with all the obstacles
“Movies can and do have tremendous influence in shaping young lives in the realm of entertainment towards the ideals and objectives of normal adulthood” -Walt Disney. Throughout our day to day lives people don’t quite realize how much influence the media and in particular, film, affects our thoughts. In fact, film has a much bigger impact on culture than we give it credit to have.
Snacks make watching movies at the theater more enjoyable, but are they worth the price you pay? Snack prices at the movies are extremely high. Most snacks can be found much cheaper at regular stores. Many people believe that it is ok to sneak food and drinks into the movies, while others are strictly against it. Customers should not bring their own food into movie theaters because the rules should be followed, it maybe rude to others, and ticket prices could incline.
The two most common negative aspects of video games are the physical and the psychological effects that it has on children. There are numerous bad effects of video games but it is the same with anything, too much of one thing is bad for you or so the saying goes. I will now look at both the physical and psychological negative effects of video games;
Being comfortable is another big factor for me in determining whether watching a movie at home or at a movie theater? At the theater, comfort ability is not an option. All chairs in the theater are made in a certain way only allowing you to sit in a position in which the chair is made. Comfort ability at home is another story. When watching a movie at home, you have the choice of sitting on the floor, couch, and soft chairs or lay down.
Movies have had an influence on the American culture through the content of various issues. In American movies, the characters take on such issues as social reform, political views, and emotional turmoil. Movies have changed people's attitudes about consuming information. Today, movies quickly give us a visual picture of where and what the characters are doing. Most movies neatly package a story into less than two hours of carefully edited material. Movies have made current generations used to this way of consuming information and can often make reading a book seem to slow for them.
Since the beginning of time, movies have always been a way to display social conflicts in a certain period of time to a large audience. Movies can evoke various emotions from different people, thus making it a great medium for directors to get their point across. For instance, movies can provide a feel good mood, but can also provide a lesson at the same time; Finding Nemo perfected this through a feel good moment when Nemo was able to reunited with his dad. One of the director’s point was to display a father’s love for his son, and that he would fight to the very end in order to find his son. Movies such as Finding Nemo are classics because of the emotions that it can evoke and the important theme it displays. Each renowned director throughout
I think that the qualities of a good movie are for one, having a good story to base it off of. I think this is important because if you don’t have a good main story then the movies just not good. I also think that putting a lot of different emotions in one movie is an important quality for a movie to have. One of my favorite movies is When the Game Stands Tall. This is one of my favorite movies because it has a really good story. In this movie it has a whole bunch of different moods throughout. It makes you happy, excited, but, it also makes you sad and mad at times. I think all good movies have the ability to do that to whoevers watching.
Film acts as a medium for art, and for information. We are entertained, as well as
In life, there are many ways citizens choose to be entertained. Whether it’s by playing a game system, watching T.V., or even going out to watch a sports game, people are willing to pay a good price for entertainment. One service for entertainment that has been going on for years dated back since 1896 is a movie theater. Theaters attract a huge variety of attendances by showing the latest movie being released which you get to watch on a big screen with somewhat comfortable seats for a certain amount of money per ticket. Unfortunately, movie theater tickets prices have been outrageous over the last couple of years. By raising prices on the tickets and already having high concession prices, theaters have prevented themselves from being able
Movies are the modern great escape. People of all ages, genders, races and religions all watch movies and are all influenced by what they see on the big screen. American culture and values are most definitely intertwined with movies. For over 100 years movies have been shown to the people to capture their hearts and imaginations. As we see things displayed in movies we begin to accept them more. The more violence we see on screen the more we become numb to it. Theatre has changed dramatically over the past century. From small Nickelodeon machines to IMAX 3D screens movies have always been about entertainment.
According to Redbox, the average person will watch 5,000 movies in his or her lifetime (Smith). I believe the reason for that is because a movie is the art of one’s imagination coming to life on a screen. The two most common places to see these masterpieces are either in someone’s home or a movie theater. Depending on the person, where they watch a movie can change their opinion on the film itself. A movie theater and a home can have similarities, but when people decide where to see a movie, the decision is based on differences such as costs, comfort, and immersiveness.
Through exposure to various types of people on screen, children will be also be educated on the culture at hand. They will be given accurate portrayals of people of colour rather than the usual flat character derived from stereotypes. The common tropes of a black character who is good at basketball -- Chad of High School Musical -- or the intelligent, nerdy asian student -- Baljeet Tjinder of Phineas and Ferb -- need to be demolished. All “token” characters need to. Stereotypes of cultures like that of Native Americans -- being mystic, shaman people who are one with the spirits and talk to the earth -- are still widely accepted as common knowledge. And while such stereotypes may hold
