Kevin Feige has the fans trust, and he knows that the fans will love anything he puts out, because he has been in their boat before as a fan of the source material(Weekend Warrior, 2016).

Transmedia can be several different forms of media like games, books, movies, and shows(Menard, 2014, p. 28). Transmedia gets amped even more with the coming digital age(Ruppel, 2012, p. 4).

Transmedia gives more perspective to characters that the audience are invested. Transmedia is about the discovery and the choice of how much the audience is willing to discover about the story the author is trying
Interest Convergence theorizes that due to racism the interests of both Whites and people of color exist as institutionalized racism. Although, both parties may aim for a similar purpose and interest, people of color will constantly receive the lesser of the deal. The self-interest of whites will continue to hinder the relationship that people of color may truly believe to exist between themselves and whites may only be imaginary.
The Australian film industry is currently in a point of crisis due to the lack of audiences attending Australian films, hence creating a decline in the revenue received towards our national industry. However, this is not due to the lack of creative talent, it is rather the many underlying issues that don?t allow the Australian public with the awareness and accessibility of these films. These problems are within the distribution, marketing and funding of these Australian films, allowing the national Australian community to not seek for films made by people within their nation due to negative pre-conceived notions and the convenience of going to see a Hollywood Blockbuster. These issues are seen through the poor release of both critically received films, Jennifer Kent?s The Babadook (2014) and Hugh Sullivan?s The Infinite Man (2014), both not gaining a wide audience. Through these issues within the industry, Australian filmmakers have not been able to create the revenue needed for these films to branch out to be easily attained by the public.

Superhero Movie industry has been introduced to recently profound success as well as being exposed
With Captain America: Civil War being the blockbuster to open the summer market (in the States anyways), expectations were set at what Edelstein believes to be another average film in the money-making-minded Marvel franchise. Trying to build on the (monetary) success that the Avengers films have made, Edelstein criticises that the studio spent more money on the appearance of Iron Man and the second tier heroes than an inventive plot. This is something
In May 22 2002 fans are shocked by the first Marvel film The Amazing Spider-Man which was given a five star rating i host as the best movie of the year. After that more and more highly rated movie has came out every year like Captain America : Civil War, Guardians Of The Galaxy, and Deadpool.
According to Barbra Dozier’s blog, movies play a significant role in the entertainment industry. They are appealing to the viewer’s eyes and ears because they combine both video and audio and they can be watched at home, in theatres, and thanks to the latest technology one can even watch movies on the go. Just like many individuals, I too spend my time watching movies as a form of entertainment. The latest one I watched and enjoyed was a comedy named The House. Although the movie may have had mediocre reviews, The House was still funny and enjoyable to watch. The plot and conflict revolve around two struggling parents who cannot afford to send their sure-to-succeed daughter to college after the town's scholarship program no longer had funding. As result the parents and a friend started an illegal underground casino in his domicile in order to make money before the time to pay their daughter's tuition came around. The rated R movie directed by Andrew Jay Cohen contains many well known actors such as Will Ferrell, Amy Poehler, and Jason Mantzoukas.
The film industry, like all industries, is an economical institution that strives to make money out of their creative projects. In the early years of Hollywood, studios were still trying to figure out methods that would turn the most profit. Vertical integration allowed companies included in the Big Five to produce, distribute, and exhibit their own films, but they needed to find a way to maintain the public’s interest of attending theater viewings. The strategy of packaging their actors’ “personas” and selling it to their audiences started to become popular and yielded positive results (VanDerploeg 24). The star system was one of the key economic strategies that helped production companies find new talent for their movies and helped audiences differentiated movies from competing studios. While it was primary created to effectively promote their movies, the star system was also the “basis for a hierarchical division of labour in the Hollywood film industry”. This meant that it allowed Hollywood executives to have power over both their actor’s career decisions and their general lives (Holmes 99). Although all actors were affected by this, women were the main victims of exploitation and trauma in the work place. Throughout the “Golden Age of Hollywood”, actresses have been highly mistreated by studio executives. Components of the star system left a physical and emotional toll onto female performers, and it was only through their plight that certain workforce were developed.
In today’s society, superhero movies have become an enormous franchise with millions of fans. From superheroes like Spiderman to The Hulk, people have a strong connection to them and they follow their stories extremely close. The Marvel movie Captain America: Civil War hit theaters on May 6, 2016, and had praising reviews. The movie made nearly 1.15 billion dollars after opening. What makes a good movie is having well-known and well-awarded actors playing the story’s characters. Having an interesting and relatable plot is something else that is crucial in having a successful movie. In addition to having well-known actors and an interesting plot, good execution of special effects is key in a good movie to make the impossible seem possible. Marvel’s Captain America: Civil War movie is good because of the large cast of very famous actors, the attention-grabbing plot, and great special effects.
A movie product is the intellectual property that can be ported to a variety of deliverables: theatrical exhibit, non-theatrical exhibit, video tapes, DVDs, CDs of the soundtrack, collectible editions, television and cable broadcast, Internet-served etc. Then there is merchandising such as clothing, toys, games, posters. Another product dimension is that of franchise rights, endorsements, product placements and a host of offshoots that are bought and sold, leased and rented. The movie business is one of the most complexes in the communications industry because of its creativity, its diversity and its continual explosions of technological delivery options.
This did not happen overnight, however. From the first Iron Man movie, Marvel had a plan. They were going to create their film universe, and slowly expand the number of heroes that they include in this film universe so that they could make more and more movies. By having these heroes come together in their Avengers titles, they are able to bring a wide variety of fans to their biggest blockbuster and have everyone’s favorite stars come together on the screen. Before The Avengers was released, Marvel had already produced Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk, Iron Man 2, Captain America: The First Avenger, and Thor. In a few of these first movies, Marvel did something genius by introducing this idea of the Avengers, thereby priming their audience for when Marvel would eventually bring together all five of these movies into one cinematic experience. Essentially, Marvel was marketing for their biggest blockbuster through their films, and this strategy had a 1.5-billion-dollar payout.
