Blockbuster is ligit!




Personally I view blockbuster films as legitimate entertainment. I think films such as star wars, Indiana Jones, and E.T are fantastic movies that are now timeless classics. Some view the films as just way to sell products and tickets. Is this wrong? I don’t feel that it is wrong because selling products is only a fragment of what these films are all about. I feel these films bring real insight in to what it is to be human or a part of the universe. On another note these films like all good art took lots of time and energy. Directors such as Steven Spielberg but lots of passion in to these pieces of art. These films play a significant part of child hood they were basically mile stones. Going beyond the view of theses films being good or bad, they have merit. They absolutely deserve some respect for actually going threw and making these historical masterpieces

The media

1. I believe that media is very important for me because it allows me to access news and other information from around the globe.

2. Three types of media that i feel are most important to myself are the Internet, the radio, and news paper. These three types of media are important to me because they allow me to obtain the information i need quick and easy.

3. My thoughts on modern pop culture are pretty laid back, I don't have a problem with culture but i believe that its important to experience many cultures and to create culture rather then to just consume culture. I enjoy the new technologies on our planet because its allowing humanity to become more united, and besides that media is entertaining for many reasons.

4. I feel that I have strong connections to the Internet because it is so diverse because its the peoples media. Every one can go online to look up information and also put out info. The Internet doesn't have many limits. The great thing is even know there are all sorts of stuff online that might make you out raged or uninterested you have control of what sites you want to access. Another great thing about the Internet is that it has almost all types of media with in it. I listen to albums, watch movies, check out the news, chat online, the Internet is great. The Internet has influenced me greatly with its ability to give a wide variety of entertainment and information I feel very fortunate. The time we all live in is very thrilling and exhilarating
