When I saw this movie for the first time I could not understand why the movie is the so called ''masterpiece'' of movies. I thought it was very long and boring at first but then I realized and understood what the storyline was and how it can relate to anybody. My thoughts changed about the movie quite a bit, I think it was actually a good movie because it shows the rise and downfall in life that can happen to anybody. I think it also shows to cherish the good times, for example when Kane was a child and had nothing to worry about. Times when all you could care about was your sled for example, Kane enjoys his sled and as you and I saw in the movie he had tons of fun with that sled out in the snow but then he was taken away from his childhood and turned into something we may like to think he never wanted to be. I liked the movie after I understood it, I think the ending was actually good. Others were stating how it was a waste of time with the ending because it made no sence but I think the message was clear, enjoy your childhood time while it lasts. Overall the movie was great but I do not follow the fact that it is called a ''masterpiece'' just for the certain fact that audiences do not like sad endings, people love the endings of movies to be happy and enjoyable, not leaving them upset. So overall I think the movie is not a ''masterpiece'' but I do think the movie has potential and has a strong way of giving a message out to cherish your time when you have no responsibilities and your biggest problem was to figure out what color the sky should be in your drawing.
This song relates to me because I recently went through changes and I felt the chorus matched with me because I feel like im on my path and there were people trying to hold me back from making a decision that I recently made. The chorus says ''you gotta let me go'' and thats exactly how I feel against the people that tried holding me back, they gotta let me go and continue on in my life, im on my path, they need to let me go.
1) The artist of this song is T.I and he is featuring the singer ''The Dream''
2)
3)
4)
5) This video would appeal to teenagers because T.I is a popular singer and everybody likes him so they would follow what he has to say and the song relates to teenagers around my age because it is the time in their life where they are gaining responsibility and have to choose a path to take and let go of the stuff that holds them back.
6) Overall I think this video is good but it has it's downsides because the video does not show much of a hint towards showing what the music is about. It just shows T.I and the Dream singing and standing beside eachother, not much of a clip to show that there letting go of stuff and moving on. Other then that the song is clear and the message in the song is clear and It is one of my favourite songs cause it can relate to many people around the world.

I believe that media is really important in my life. I believe it is really important because without media we would not have movies,music or videogames and that would create alot of bordom among alot of teens.
The most important media to me would be videogames. It is my favourite type of media because when im not doing anything important I am playing videogames or watching a movie so both are equally important to me because without them I would go insane from bordom.
I think today's technology is great and im happy that we do not live in the old days where their was not any kind of this technology we have today. Everything is much easier to communicate with others and find out information you want and need to know. I really like the facebook technology we have because it is the most popular and easiest way to communicate with others and see what they are up to and what their plans are for the day. One of the things I do not like is formspring. It is a type of technology where you communicate but it is a cause of fights and other serious problems because you can comment on other people without showing your name, so you can be as rude as you want. I usually only use media for entertainment because that is what media is mostly used for but when something important comes up and I need to know information about it, I use media technology to find out the information im looking for Desert Island Choices - Music - my favourite type of music is Hip-Hop. My favourite singer is Eminem. He is my favourite because he sings about how he feels and what is real and not fake like most other singers. Eminem ( Rap, Hip-Hop singer )
Movies - My favourite movie is Resident Evil Afterlife. It is my favourite movie because the storyline is perfect and it is action packed with alot of good actors and monsters. Also the director of the movie is one of the best directors in are world today, so you know it is going to be a good movie.
Resident evil afterlife - 2010
T.v Shows - My favourite T.v show is family guy. It is my favourite because you can not watch one episode without laughing atleast once. Every episode has a simply storyline that they try and follow with as much jokes as they can. The characters in the show are all funny and have that one perk about them, that is messed up in a funny way. My favourite character is Stewie just because his life plan is to kill his mom Lois but fails at every attempt.
