In his essay “Why we crave horror movies”, Stephen King said even though horror movies are scary and send irritating vibes to the audience, they are still craved. Mr. King mentioned three reasons why people crave horror movies, to prove they are not afraid, to exhibit emotions and just to experience the concept of violence. Most people get scared, annoyed or uncomfortable and frightened while watching horror movies, but they still want to watch them because they are enjoyable and thrilling. People watch scary movies because they are somehow considered a way of experiencing fear in a controlled set, which turns into an enjoyable experience once over since it’s not a real threat. Some horror movies fans see the enjoyment of scary movies similar to riding roller coasters, a thrilling ride.
Explain why or why not. I think there are many reasons a person will laugh at a joke that will put down other people. One such reason is immaturity. Having worked with teenagers I think that this is their favorite way to joke around. I think it makes them feel better about themselves.
Shindler and Goeth. The performance by Goeth really shows what a real Nazi acted like back then. The film is also very graphic and I like that it has a beauty mixed with its gruesome side. Shindler really was a great character because he was funny, mysterious, flirtatious, but he had a darker side that he showed superficially. Gattaca was the best in terms of entertainment.
In order for a sitcom to be great, it should be re-watchable. Seinfeld has a number of inside jokes including catch phrases and character flaws which are repeated throughout the episodes. The inside jokes are generally only picked up by dedicated viewers who realise that they’re funny, hence they are necessary in re-watchability. Another factor in a great sitcom is chemistry among the characters. The characters of Seinfeld have such great chemistry that we love to watch them, and feel like a part of it.
For those of us that seek adventure, TV shows offer programs that vary from actors to themes to genres and have one of two purposes: to entertain or to inform. While informative shows are regularly watched, most of television viewers prefer entertaining shows. Comedies are the most familiar TV shows watched and
Hitch was a funny movie that can be described as a comedy but also as a chic flick. This movie was hilarious and had a lot of different events that would grab attention an audiences’ attention. This movie showed various relationships and how well they were established. It also showed how effective communication can be if you know and learn how to communicate with your mate. I selected this film and will identify an interpersonal conflict that was not handled effectively.
In his essay, “Why We Crave Horror Movies,” Stephen King tells us that some reasons we like a good horror flick are: to prove that we aren’t afraid of things that go bump in the night, to make us feel “normal,” and to have some good old-fashioned fun. Upon reading these assertions, I began to reflect on my own attitudes about the horror film genre. I have never considered myself to be a horror film fan. I tend to shy away from movies with extreme gore, violence, and gratuitous blood shed. They aren’t fun.
Although using humor might be considered scandalous to some critiques, everyone can admit that Chaplin made a remarkable film based on his famous sense of humor. As Enid Welsford (2008) said, “comedy evokes a critical and thoughtful reaction from an audience because it challenges symbolic orders.” The way Chaplin chose to present the characters in the movie is very special, because every person who watches the film knows who they are; however, one did not think that someone can present them in such a foolish way, which makes this portrayal so special. Although it was a controversial decision, Chaplin chose to portray these figures as clowns, which enabled him
These shows and movies help the acceptance into society. For example, when people watch these shows and movies, they understand the differences of society. Some people may not understand the differences and may be scared of someone different from them, so with these shows they provide character and may even change people’s minds about cultures and diversity that did not know about.

Comedy can break through all the red tape and say what others cannot. Secret thoughts are observations that society as a whole might feel or want to say without the fear that usually follows. Comedians are able to speak freely and be honest about their opinions. People laugh at something funny not only because it’s entertaining, but also because the context of the material used by the comedian.
