“SpongeBob have you tried “wumbo”?” “Patrick I don’t think “wumbo” is a real word…” “come on, you know, I wumbo, you wumbo, he, she, we, wumbo, wumboing, wumbology, the study of wumbo…. Come on SpongeBob, this is first grade!”. That is one of my favorite scenes from SpongeBob square pants one of my favorite shows. My taste in shows and stories of any kind is more on the practical side. I like reality. I’m down to earth, so I think. Hearing a story that I know can happen to someone in real life interest me like no other. So why would I start out with a quote from SpongeBob? The most unrealistic show maybe on Tv. Well:it is funny to me. The only way I can sacrifice reality is with comedy. Cartoons usually make me laugh a lot. For example SpongeBob, …show more content…
I just like what I like in a way. Although I’m picky, I still end up watching a lot of wide verity of movies anyway. I still end up watching movies that I go into thinking I won’t like but end up likening. I still end up being crazy picky about the movies I even consider. Even after all that I still end up watching a bunch of movies whether I like them or not. Movies are just a fun time in general for me. Just relax and enjoy the show that people created. Whether I like the movie or not I always respect them because I know a lot of people worked hard to create them so I will never trash a movie. Whether I watch it again is up to …show more content…
The movie I saw most recently was “IT”. That movie is terribly fake and not real at all but the horror movie feeling I get I enjoy so I continue to watch them. I don’t like surprises but in horror movies I do for some odd reason. My favorite horror movie of all time is “Halloween” the movie about Michael Myers. That movie I love so much because of the suspense of it. The movie isn’t really that scary but the plot and the way it was filmed was good to me. I guess that’s maybe that’s the type of movies and stories I like. The ones with good stories and plots with good acting. Cause at the end of the day that’s what it’s all about. If I see that Denzel Washington is in a movie ill watch it only because of him because I know he is A1 in terms of acting. He’s one of the best today and one of the best ever. If I see that the director is Quentin Tarantino I will look into the movie because I know he is a great director and the work he puts in to movies will always be high
Children across the world enjoy the television show Spongebob for its loveable characters and humor. The most prominent of these characters is Spongebob Squarepants, a personified sponge who lives in a pineapple under the sea, in a town called Bikini Bottom. He spends the majority of his time working as a chef at the Krusty Krab, a fast food restaurant run by a greedy crab named Mr. Krabs. Spongebob’s neighbor and co-worker, Squidward Tentacles, has a very cynical view of life, constantly complaining about Spongebob and praising the clarinet and other arts. Across from Spongebob lives his best friend, Patrick Star, a starfish known for little intelligence and extensive sleeping. Most episodes, he and Spongebob act on a new idea which leads to various consequences. Sandy Cheeks, a squirrel from Texas, sometimes joins Spongebob and Patrick in their adventures. While the show is marketed to children, it has many qualities suitable for teenagers and adults including occasional sophisticated humor and philosophical references. Two philosophies referenced in the show are Epicureanism and Existentialism. Epicurean beliefs are shown through Sandy and Mr. Krabs, while Squidward and Patrick showcase Existentialism.
I usually do not watch horror films, however, it is mainly because they just do not appeal to me as much as other genres do. Furthermore, I normally do not watch many movies. However, in the past, I played a horror game called Outlast which was much scarier than I am comfortable with.
Night Of The Living Dead a film that was in my opinion the first of its kind. It didn’t have the biggest budget when they filmed it. Yet a film I would watch again and again. The 1968 original film is a classic I really enjoyed. It didn’t have the most famous actors and actresses or the greatest acting in that case. It didn’t even have great film quality, yet I was glued to the film from the first minute to the last. I saw it as a change of scenery from the films we see today, and if you’re someone who likes black and white films you’re going to love this one.
It is an attractive idea that as humans live our lives out rationally, making decisions based on our logic and reasoning. Underneath our consciousness lies our primal instincts that originate back to when our ancestors and earth both primitive. These instincts are what shape our emotions and the actions people take, whether good or bad. Horror movies reflect our fears and our irrational thoughts, giving us a method in which people can experience these emotions. Whereas in our daily lives no such stimulation exists. This is why people have a fascination with horror movies. People crave horror movies because they put the fears, our irrationality, and the deep seeded emotions people have on the spotlight and gives people the ability to release
First and foremost, the way I pick movies have changed. I am now a little more open to watching an older, black and white film. I am also more likely to select a foreign film with subtitles. However, I still have a hard time picking films that aren’t critically acclaimed. I am more willing to watch a black and white film but only if it is directed by Alfred Hitchcock or Orson Welles. The same goes for foreign films. I have also changed the way I analyze films. Now when I critically looks at a movie I find that I judge a movie based on more than the story and acting. I will looks and what goes on to getting that shot or how hard it must’ve been to edit some of the scenes. I think that it has made me a little more lenient when I review a movie. In the past I would think a movie wasn’t good if I didn’t like the story but now I can look past things and judge it by the cinematography and set design. I think I have started to understand that film is an art form and deserves to be treated more carefully than most people treat it. I now understand just how hard it is to make and be a part of a movie. I am still working on fixing my flaws as a viewer and I believe that it will come as I take the time to view more
One of the essential qualities, I believe, a true cinephile must possess is an ability to enjoy the not so finer things in film. A movie lover must be able to watch a stupid, poor quality picture and still have a good time. Otherwise, that person risks becoming a stereotypical, pretentious, snooty film nerd. Thankfully, I have not yet lost that indispensable feature. I can still enjoy clearly mediocre (or worse) movies, such as Nacho Libre.
First of all, why do I watch horror movies? That is actually a really good and very heavy question. I often times try to understand why I watch films tha...
Across the globe watching movies started as an asylum for the working class, but slowly the ideas being portrayed onscreen have evolved resulting in movie going to become almost religious. Movies have the ability to leave us in awe as a result of their ability to give us a glimpse of a dream, however unrealistic. I myself am a huge fan of the film industry. I started to feel a certain reverence for it because of the way it inspired me to dream and gave birth to my ambitions. This ultimately led to me to go into an in depth investigation of whether I was the only one who felt this way and what affects had been created because of this feeling.
Would you rather be horrified beyond repair or thrilled to the point of no return? In horror, the main purpose is to invoke fear and dread into the audience in the most unrealistic way. Horror movies involve supernatural entities such as ghosts, vampires, teleportation, and being completely immortal. As thriller films are grounded in realism and involve more suspense, mystery, and a sense of panic. Though both genres will frighten the audience, it will happen in two different ways. Whether the horror thrills or the thriller horrifies, a scare is always incorporated.
(Thesis restatement) There are a number of reasons we like horror flicks. There are also various roles our body chemistry play in how we react to our fear of scary movies. (Clincher) Weather its thrill seeking, a confidence boost or just a companionship you’re looking for those spine tingling thrillers are always there for the fear and excitement you need
When the movie is finished, all your friends were saying how much they liked it. In this instance, if you were to suppress your own opinion and say that you liked the movie, you would be conforming.
Many people go to the movies. The movies are an escape into a fantasy world. Everyone has a different preference on what kind of movie is the best. Romance, horror, action, and comedy are different types of movies. The kind of movie someone goes to see can give clues to what kind of person they are.
Every since I can remember I have liked to watch movies, I would never watch a scary
It’s always hard to pick a single favorite movie, because there are so many good ones. If I had to pick a favorite it would be a toss up between Gladiator, and Old School. I have a hard time choosing between comedy, and action. I would have to say that Gigli staring Ben Affleck, and J-lo is the least favorite movie of mine. In my opinion Gigli had a bad plot, bad acting, and was to long. I recently have seen the Client which was writer by John Grissim. The Client was originally a book, and like a lot of his work was great. The Client had a great plot, and incredible acting. It’s easy to say I’m a movie buff I love to rent movies and go to the theater as much as possible. I recently stop renting movies, because the late fees were killing me, so my thing now is to just by the new releases I like. It just makes sense if you consistently have late fees it is cheaper to just buy the movie.
The answer is beautifully summarized by Academy Award winner actor Jack Nicholsen, in one of his speech during Oscar award ceremony, “… they entertain us; they offer hopes (and) give traumas; they take us places, we never been, just even for few moments; they can take us away, when we want to get away; Movies inspire us; they challenge us and despite our differences, they are (the) common link to humanity, in all of us.” In my opinion, this statement is the true reflection of the reason, why people love to watch movies. Movies allow us to escape. But there is a value in this escapism, its more than simple eluding.
