I believe that TV can rot your brain because it you already have a sickness that it can push you into this that you might not do if it wasn't for TV. Today's society watches alot of TV and depend on the information that is given out. Between reality TV and scripted TV people watch probably between 40 to 50 hours of TV a week. That is alot of TV waves entering your brain. Today more people have electronics in their hands then a book. With DVR and Netflixs people have the TV at there beck n call. They can record or just click a button and their favorite shows are there in an instint. Between Ipads and Kindles books are at peoples finger tips in an instint too. So between the TV and the electronics are brains are toast.

My paper was about why are society needs to have remakes. I feel that is was about the article of Movie Fantasy vs. Classroom Reality. I dont remember if we actually read this article but I feel that the movie Footloose, which is the movie that i wrote about, has to deal with school problems. It also has to deal with political problems. In the movie it has to deal with bullying and peer pressure with is what high school is all about.

I see the difference between cinematic heros and superheros means the defination of the word Glamerous. Glamerous can mean getting into the right party or wearing the same dress that an actress wore on the red carpet to an important event or it can mean the guy that saves the city from the meteor or saves the city from the villian. Glamerous can make you feel that you are invinsible. In the superman movies you actually believe that you can fly. So the line between cinematic heros, which means physical and superheros can be blurred.

I chose Voldamere from Harry Potter. He lies, steals, and will stop at nothing to kill Harry. He appeals to contemporary audiences because todays society has to deal with lies and dicete everywhere they go. They also have to think on their feet and decide what step to take next with out getting caught. I dont know if this is what you are looking for but it is the only out law that i could think of that would be even close to semiotic analysis.

Sebastian is suppose to start a new school, beings he has been kicked out of three schools for skipping. Violet comes up with the idea to be her brother and attend his school being him. She has a plan to make the boys soccer team and play against her school and beat them to prove that she is good enough.
