@Obravo5115 It's highly uneasy. The movie has many correlations to modern systematic oppression, as well as tensions between ethnically diverse communities. I think thats why this film is so valuable when analyzed at a deeper level. Though it certainly can be outdated in some ways aswell.

[Austin White @austingw17]

@Gretadmedia Agreed. The movie quickly changes mood frequently, activley maintaining the viewers sense of immersion with its many cinematic effects, and high-low/low-high tensions between characters.

[Austin White @austingw17]

The scorching heat is also displayed with the color schemes (added bright fiery oranges, and the absences of cool blues) that are used, create a more realistic immersive feeling.

#Media1801D04 Do the Right Thing creates a feeling of new perspective. The Character development used with Sal exposes the different depths of prejudice, specifically racism, that exist within multicultural/ethnic communities.

[Austin White @austingw17]

Additionally, the cinematic tool Canted angle (an uneven horizon of the frame/tilted frame) are found. This is used to display a kind of shakiness by implementing the tilted POV, instilling an effect of instability upon the characters/scene being displayed.

@1eesauce @hannah68665232 Exactly. The internet allows all people with access to it to share and express their opinions freely. It's important that giving regulatory authority to the FCC wouldn't jeopardize the American publics ability to practice freedom of speech.

[Austin White @austingw17]

@hannah68665232 I completely agree. Misinformation seems to be one of the internets greatest downfalls. If the FCC were to find a way of preventing misinformation, this would be the kind of regulation I would stand behind.

[Austin White @austingw17]

However, I don't believe it should be regulated the same way as Television. Maintaining the internets accessible nature does come with risk of letting questionable content & misinformation being spread. I think the focus rather should be to educate people to use responsibly.

[Austin White @austingw17]

#MEDIA1801D04 I think there is great freedom in the decentralized structure of the internet, and the capabilities it possesses. However I think the FCC could regulate the internet by overseeing applications that utilize it and profit from it, VS regulating the Individuals use

@zhixi857 I love this approach, so true! People are no longer limited to "what's playing" and now watch what they want to. Wether this be a comedy show, or an informative docu-series, the possibilities are endless nowadays, giving people far more options then ever previously imagined.

[Austin White @austingw17]

@JuanHunter101 I agree. When people have access at all times to watch what they want, it's easy to loose the "what do you want to watch tonight" aspect of tv. Peoples taste in television may become more narrow when friends and family don't have opportunity to broaden what you watch otherwise.

[Austin White @austingw17]

For the most part, with broadcasting, you watch one thing that is playing at a given time, which is likely dictated by parents, older siblings, or people with "status", in a family, or social group. Ultimately, It depends on the parameters people are watching in.

[Austin White @austingw17]

#media1801D04 I believe cable has given us much possibility with its versatility in comparison to early television. I believe the question is more complicated than just a simple "good or bad". for some, broadcasting may have created social bonds, and also distorted them.

[Austin White @austingw17]

@nottheoneno Nowadays there are so many forms of media consumption to choose from, however, I think paying attention to which classes of people consume what medias is interesting, because we see what medians are considered to be dominated by the "quality audience", at different times/eras

[Austin White @austingw17]

@jed_wedder59480 I think it's interesting to think about the way certain ads create stigmas about certain products. Although these products are very harmful, and consumption should be avoided completely if possible, who knows if guilt tripping nicotine users actually influences them to quit

[Austin White @austingw17]

I believe this is a way to secure profit off of the immediate purchase of the happy meal, as well as secure a loyal customer base in the companies futue. This is done through this influence, then kids grow up and continue buying McDonalds.

The link above is to a website on Happy meals, and the themed toys that come with them. These ads use likable characters to lure kids to McDonalds happy meals, exploiting their developing brains to highly processed/addictive foods.
