The document discusses the 2005 remake of War of the Worlds, directed by Steven Spielberg. It questions whether the film would have been as popular and successful without the context of the 9/11 attacks. While some critics thought the film drew similarities to 9/11, the responses indicate that the original book and film were already popular franchises. Additionally, it was noted that 9/11 may have been incorporated for commercial purposes rather than out of actual necessity for the storyline. The document concludes by discussing the appropriate usage of 9/11 as a thematic device, stating it can be justified if handled respectfully and based on facts, rather than being exploited.

The document discusses Steven Spielberg's 2005 film "War of the Worlds" and the role of 9/11 in its reception and themes. It notes that the film was released just 4 years after 9/11 and had visual similarities to the attacks that bothered some American audiences. However, the document argues that the film's popularity wouldn't have been significantly affected without 9/11 references, as most viewers would be from other countries unaffected by 9/11. It also states that using 9/11 merely as a plot device or for emotional impact, without being crucial to the story, is unjustified and exploits the tragic event.Movie music for romanticism

The document provides an overview of the representation of women in films from the 1940s to 2010s. It discusses the Bechdel test and how few films pass it. It then summarizes some of the common tropes and roles of women in American films for each decade, such as the femme fatale in the 1940s and Marilyn Monroe's roles in the 1950s. It notes that the films only represent white, slim women and calls for further research on a more diverse set of international films.Representation of women in film - very basic overview 2015 update

The document is a collection of images and text snippets related to presentation design best practices. It includes recommendations such as using no more than two fonts per presentation, keeping fonts above 24pt if possible, and limiting the use of bullet points as they can kill an interesting presentation. It also warns against putting too much small text on a single slide, as the audience will not be able to read or write it all down and their attention will shift from the speaker.2. research

Here are the key strengths and weaknesses of each research method:
Product research:
- Strengths: Provided concrete examples to analyze and draw inspiration from.
- Weaknesses: Limited to existing products so can't get original feedback.
Questionnaires:
- Strengths: Gathered quantitative data from a sample of the target audience.
- Weaknesses: Response rate may be low, answers can lack depth.
Interviews:
- Strengths: Provided qualitative insights directly from the target audience.
- Weaknesses: Small sample size so not generalizable, responses vary in quality.

This document discusses generalizations and how to identify valid versus faulty generalizations. It defines a generalization as a broad statement about a group that identifies something they have in common. Faulty generalizations are not supported by facts and use absolute terms like "all" or "never." Valid generalizations are supported by facts, agree with common knowledge, use logic, and provide multiple examples. The document cautions against making generalizations that are not sufficiently supported by evidence.2. research(2)

The document discusses Steven Spielberg's 2005 film adaptation of The War of the Worlds. It provides budget and box office details, and asks why American audiences responded strongly to the film. The film starred Tom Cruise and was set and released in the US only a few years after 9/11. This likely contributed to its popularity and box office success, as Americans could relate to the fear of attack depicted in the film during a time when they still felt vulnerable after the terrorist attacks. While some may criticize using 9/11 as a thematic device, the film did not directly portray 9/11 but rather exploited the climate of fear that still existed in the US at that time.War of the_worlds_worksheet

The original had a budget of $2 million while the remake had a significantly higher budget of $132 million. Unlike most remakes, Spielberg's version was inspired by and sought to portray the emotion of 9/11, comparing the terrorist attacks to an alien invasion. The remake used big-name stars like Tom Cruise and advanced technology to attract a wider audience while still conveying the devastation of events like 9/11 and the Cold War through the science fiction concept.Five Films Re-Edited for American Release

- 1. Conduct your own research and find:  Release Date  Budget  Box Office Gross Read the following articles: http://www.today.com/id/10549050/ns/today-entertainment/t/steven- spielbergs-obsession/#.UuZWe2TFJ1M http://www.theguardian.com/film/2005/jul/04/usa.world Why do you think American audiences responded to War Of The Worlds like they did? Think about the casting of Tom Cruise, the film’s location and time of release. Do you think the contemporary remake of War Of The Worlds would have been popular or successful without the events of 9/11? I think the reason American critics reacted the way they did to war of the worlds (2005 remake) was because they thought it was roughly based on 9/11 because of similarities. I still think the remake of War Of The World would still have been popular without the events of 9/11 because it was already a popular book and film before 9/11. I just think the makers of the remake used 9/11 as an excuse to fit in the 9/11 concept for money. I also think it still would have been popular because I have never seen War Of The Worlds and I know it’s popular, but I never knew it had any indication of 9/11.
- 2. How do you feel about American Producers using 9/11 as a thematic device in film? Can it be justified? I think 9/11 can be used in films, depending on how tastefully it is done. Using 9/11 as the main theme and storyline of the film is ok to do as long as it is done with respect and sticks to true facts. Whereas if 9/11 is put into a film where it’s not really needed, I think is disrespectful because it’s just using the 9/11 events to get money.
