Ben Kendrick's Rhetorical Analysis: Hotel Transylvania

She describes how Huston faced some difficulty getting people at Metro Goldwyn Mayer (MGM) to greenlight the picture. The novel the film is based on has “no story,” Mayer consistently bemoans. Aside from the lack of conventional plot, Huston also plans to cast no stars in the film, further hurting its chances of turning a profit. After setting up this initial conflict and how she gained entry onto this project, the book dives some of the work that went into the movie’s pre-production. Ross details the casting of the film’s star Audie Murphy, a war hero who never acted before The Red Badge of Courage, along with the rest of

Moves can show emotion in ways real life can not and Tim Burton’s films do this by creating emotions that are contradictory. An emotional state or reaction is a feeling and movie directors use them to help create stories. Some of the best movies make you feel multiple ways at once to make your movie going experience the best it can be. he uses close ups, music, and low key lighting to create comidikly unnerving feelings in the audience. Charlie and the Chocolate Factory(Charlie) was a children 's story that Tim Burton adapted and turned it into a slightly darker story than the one we knew.

He introduces his idea in the most shocking way possible with his claim that one-year-old babies are “delicious” whether they are stewed, roasted, baked, or boiled. The image of a baby being cooked is very alarming and disturbing. The idea is so extreme that it demonstrates the overall satire of his essay. Swift suggests that he is not the only one prejudiced enough to support the idea of eating Irish children. He gladly states, “A very worthy person was lately pleased in discoursing on this matter to offer a refinement upon my scheme.” This person suggests eating the flesh of fourteen-year-old children in addition to infants.

Emile Ardolinos creation of the 1987 Dirty Dancing showed the world the hidden and shamed upon dancing styles of the 1960s.While watching the film, the scenes create a feeling of wanting to get up and dance along with them. Both the writer and the director made the movie work smoothly with connections between the different frames that did not leave the audience questioning what just happened or wanting them to have more. With watching Dirty Dancing throughout my childhood, I can say that it is one of the most exciting and well-organized films of the 19th century. IMDb explains, “With an estimated budget of 6 million dollars, with the release date of August 21st, 1987 the total gross worldwide hit 170 million dollars. It also won 1 Oscar with another 11 wins and 6 nominations.

The sound effects are wonderful, and the voice acting is excellent and perfectly fits the characters. Epic background music is brilliantly integrated into the scenes that involve intense dialogues or confrontations, contributing to deep emotional engagement by the viewers. Naruto also has an outstanding quality of artwork that remained consistent for a decade and half. Facial emotions are captured quite well, the fights are greatly descriptive. However, the animation has gone downhill at some parts of the series, especially in episode 167, where the Kyuubi literally hammers down Pain (a villain) with a piece of rock in a similar cartoonish fashion to Tom & Jerry.

You can clearly see things in his films Edward Scissor Hands, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, and Alice and Wonderland, that these outsiders are scared of change. He uses cinematic techniques such as close up camera movements to show emotion and to display facial expressions of the characters, using non- diegetic sound to make the films seem like everything isn’t as it seems, and lastly, he uses flashback and lighting to establish mood. In many of Tim Burton’s films, he uses close-up shots to display facial expressions of the characters. He mostly used close-up shots in his personal film,

When exploring Shelley’s novel and how its themes can be maintained when transported to film, there is an extremely important problem that every screenwriter and producer must overcome: the novel doesn’t ever visualise Frankenstein’s monster, instead briefly summarising its appearance. The horror and repulsion that the creature evokes stems from each character’s reaction to its visage, rather than the visage itself - such as Victor’s account of its creation, where ‘now that I had finished, the beauty of the dream vanished, and breathless horror and disgust filled my heart.’ \footcite{Mary Shelley, 'Frankenstein or The Modern Prometheus' Ch. 5 pp. 50} As James Heffernan points out, ‘A faithful recreation of the novel’s central narrative… would

One review, written by Gary Arnold states, “‘Apocalypse Now,” despite flashes of excitement, remains a colossal egocentric blur”. This showed that Arnold, a respected critic, thought the film could be better, although it had points of action and excitement. Arnold also goes on to state, “The movie…commences straining for greatness and never lets up”. Once again showing that he does not have much praise for the film. Another review that came out, takes a different view on the film.

Formal Analysis of the movie, "Passengers" (2016) It’s a bit of a shame that the new Jennifer Lawrence / Chris Pratt movie Passengers got so slammed by critics. It’s not that I disagree with the consensus take on it, but I didn’t see as much engagement with what the movie was saying prior to the collapse at the end as I might have liked. It is indeed true that the movie instill a feeling of “being lost”. The end is a huge mess that undermines the rest of what has happened to that point, but through the first and second acts, it’s a pretty interesting movie with some provocative and intense ideas. It balances dark and terrible notions with a sense of fun and an identifiable, resonant humanity.

He repeatedly calls Caesar’s murderers honorable men, despite his actual feelings toward them. (4) Additionally, on TV, an award winning show the Big Bang Theory uses sarcasm in its script but never acknowledges it. In an episode called The Big Bran Hypothesis, Leonard has to hold up a sign to signal to his roommate Sheldon, who claims to be immune to sarcasm, that Penny used sarcasm, and that he should probably stop talking. (5) Disney’s The Lion King also features sarcasm when Timon jokes “that worked like a dream”. This confuses Pumbaa which leads to Timon asking if sarcasm is foreign to him.
