Dynamite

authors of satirical cartoons such as The Boondocks and Black Dynamite have emphasized these events in a satirical manner to try to get the American public involved and stop the racial oppression that is occurring. However, many audience members do not take these types of shows seriously and view them as a joke rather than a serious topic. As the majority of audience members not taking satirical shows such as The Boondocks and Black Dynamite seriously has led to the support of racism instead of the abolishment

Hot Rod vs. Napoleon Dynamite On one hand, Hot Rod is “cool beans”,on the other, Napoleon Dynamite is “flippin’ sweet!” Both these weird-humored comedies have various “on the surface” aspects that generate similarity, yet different components of each film set the two apart. The plot of these movies are more different than they are alike. Napoleon Dynamite is set in a small town and has a fairly insignificant plot: Pedro for class president. Napoleon, himself, is an awkward teenager trying to help

group enjoys the newer media of our times, I tend to enjoy the older movie titles of the 20th Century. While scrolling through the channels on my T.V., I happened upon an older Western film called “Duck, You Sucker!”, also known as “A Fist Full of Dynamite”. The leading cast includes James Coburn and Rod Steiger. The plot is about an Irish I.R.A. member befriending a common Mexican bandit as they accidentally become involved in The Mexican Revolution in 1913. The bandit, Juan, wants the Irish revolutionary

In the small southern town of Macomb, there are different citizens and personalities that make it up. There are the Finches, Cunninghams, Ewells, Hecks and many others that add to the unpredictable town itself. They bring songs to the musical of Macomb County whether they’re light and positive or dark and dangerous. The main character and narrator Scout is all about not caring what others think, doing what she feels comfortable with, and unapologetically being herself. I think she would sing the

In The True Blue Scouts of Sugar Man Swamp, by Kathi Appelt, a pair of raccoons, Bingo and J’miah, become the Official Scouts of Sugar Man Swamp (Appelt 3). Bingo and J’miah go on special missions to serve the Sugar Man, a creature that rules over the swamp, and heed to the “Voice of Intelligence” that comes from a junky old DeSoto car abandoned in the swamp (Appelt 3-4).

My goal for this infographic is to represent the stereotypes that are shown in the television series The Boondocks and Black Dynamite by using offensive pictures to induce the shock factor in my audience, but not so much that they lose sight of what is being depicted and why. For example, when determining what image to use for “Support Racial Beliefs” I was tempted to use a clipart image of the KKK, but realized that it would be too offensive. Instead, I settled for an image of Riley from The Boondocks

It was hard for me to watch this movie and separate Napoleon’s behaviors from his friends and family members. Many of the things he does and says are like those of the people around him. His overall weirdness was not behavior that I immediately would have identified as Asperger’s, rather someone who is simply a little odd. However, as I continued to watch the movie I was able to find certain examples that could be red flags for Asperger’s. From the very beginning of the movie, it seemed like Napoleon

The movie I picked to do this culture analysis on was "Straight Outta Compton". I had the opportunity to watch this film a few months ago, and I completely loved it. I was not raised in the United States so, my knowledge about the group N.W.A was very little. I had always heard about them, here and there. I even recognized a few of their members like Dr. Dre and Ice Cube separately, but never imagined their history and why their impact was so big. N.W.A and their members had to go through a tough
