Although cinema is now a priority, some feel as if cinema is no longer the cinema when it was first established. Movies no longer have that special feeling like viewers once had. Today, films are not only shared within a theater, if one pleases they could always have the same experience elsewhere. Moreover, with technology expanding, it takes away the importance cinema once had. “The

Stockbroker on the verge of turning thirty is on a quest. Set in 1960 New Orleans during Mardi Gras Binx, an upper class southern gentleman sets out to find out about himself. Answer questions that have tugged at his soul. Questions about despair, everydayness, religion and romance. Binx is stuck in a quagmire. He must break out from this cloak of ennui and find the essence of being. But how? How can people, a person with a soul and a world at their fingertips be so inept at finding what makes them alive.

Do you think it’s okay to sneak food into the movies? I sure do think it is okay. It is very tempting to bring your own snacks to the movies. The movies have many reasons to kick you out if you do. Although, there are many reasons to bring your own food because the movie’s snacks might be too expensive, or maybe they are just too unhealthy for you. If you bring food in, then do make sure you don’t get caught. If you do, then just hope you don’t get banned from the theater. I told you what I think, but what about you? What do you think?

Although the best reasons for “going to the movies” are to be entertained and eat popcorn, understanding a film is actually quite complex. Movies are not only a reflection of life, they also have the capability of shaping our norms, values, attitudes, and perception of life. Through the media of film, one can find stories of practically anything imaginable and some things unimaginable. Movie-makers use their art to entertain, to promote political agendas, to educate, and to present life as it is, was, or could be. They can present truth, truth as they interpret it, or simply ignore truth altogether. A movie can be a work of fiction, non-fiction, or anything in-between. A film is an artist’s interpretation. What one takes away from a film depends upon how one interprets what has been seen and heard. Understanding film is indeed difficult.

The Narrative “Confessions of a Shusher” by Phillip Lopate creates a vivid image of the atmosphere of a movie theater that contains an annoying or irritating person or couple. The purpose of this writing piece is to express the frustration of the people surrounding those who do not partake in correct movie etiquette and also how society has possibly lost its sense of respect for other persons. He is trying to convey the struggle between those who consider themselves to be “shushers” and those who do not like to be solitude in public.

Field claimed this was probably the most important act, as within the first five minutes it is assumed that audiences will be able to tell if they will enjoy a film or not and whether they will continue watching it at all. Field states that this act was extremely vital for any filmmaker to perfect, this is because it makes sure the audience’s interest is invested. It should introduce the theme of the film, protagonist, why the audience should care about said protagonist, film style and the problem affecting the protagonist.

As I walk into the theater room I notice the feeling of popcorn crumbling beneath my feet which gives me the funny mental image of me being a giant and then I feel the spot where someone had spilt a little of their soda and the floor is a little sticky I then proceed to a seat that fits my likening and sit down and patiently wait for the movie to

When I entered into the theatre to take a seat, I noticed the stage was set up with showers, lockers, and small baseball field. The showers were placed in the back of the stage, the baseball players' lockers were placed on the sides, and there was painted baseball field in the middle of the

They are two very different settings, but like other things, they also have similarities. No matter where you go, you’re still watching a movie. You can still eat and still spend time with your friends and family. Hopefully when watching a movie one is watching something that have been looking forward to seeing, the movie is enjoyable, whether at home or the theatre. Another thing that doesn’t make cinemas less appealing is that one can whisper in small amounts, as long as no one is being bothered. Finally, similarity is found in both settings, nobody likes their movie to be interrupted by either a phone call or a text. One has to immediately turn of their phones.

Watching a film on TV is better than watching in theaters this how I’m going to prove my comparisons. It's annoying when you hear from friends what happens in the movie and it ruins the whole thing. It just isn't the same! It depends on, how good your surround system is and how big your TV is, and economic hardships today. It does not mean that the enjoyment of watching movies needs to be sacrificed.
