Improved Essays
It’s official, the “Ghostbusters” trailer is out and the reboot looks epic with easter eggs ripe for the taking. It looks like Melissa McCarthy and the rest of the ladies have successfully rebooted the original film.

The world has finally seen video footage of Paul Feig’s reboot of the classic “Ghostbusters.” If you’re a fan of the original then this all-girls version could just make the ghost hunting much more sweeter.
Easter eggs were all over the place when the video was aired and Feig didn’t neglect to include the firehouse which was the base of all ghostly operations from the original movie. The first shot of the firehouse with the graffiti’d classic logo was a homage to the first movie but the all-girl squad would not be making a home

    The use of this technique was so essential to the scene because it makes us as though we are following Danny riding his tricycle in this empty area where he is about to enter a dangerous place and this creates tension and terror. Furthermore, the disturbing music starts to get louder and he used a low angle shot which builds more thrill and suspense then it cuts to a close tracking shot following him from behind as he approaches a turn in the hallway. As soon as he makes a turn, he immediately stops and we see an extremely long shot of the ghosts of the identical twins standing from afar away. This scene where the twins appeared unexpectedly definitely sends shivers down any viewer’s spine. Both girls were dressed in a light blue doll-like dresses with frill sleeves and ribbon belts and they were very pale looking.…

    Gun Crazy Sociology

    The film Gun Crazy gives an important example of characters being consumed by several damaging fixations, namely the allure of femme fatales and possessing a dangerous gun fetish. This film is a psychological tale, as film author Foster Hirsch notes in his book The Dark Side of the Screen: Film Noir, “Gun Crazy makes passing stabs at a variety of meaty subjects: the place of violence in American life; the link between violence and sex; the emasculating obsession with masculinity” (Hirsch 195). The crime wave of the past decades (1930s and 1940s) during which the film takes place left an indelible mark on American society, the lure of easy money by simply robbing people with using a loaded gun, and the lure of sexually charge women coupled with…

    The primary image of the poster creates a strong visual attraction to viewers with the contrast between the background of dark night and the occult, cold, blue bright light coming from the car’s headlight and the ghost sign in the air. The colors that the poster is adopted with are also in stark contrast: characters’ dim, dull clothing versus the bright, alarming red and orange stripes on ghostbusters’ uniform and the ghost sign. Such overall tone of the poster is indeed strong pathos in that it creates a sense of mystery and evoke viewer’s curiosity into the story. The ominous foreboding color implies the intensity of the story, a sense of urgency of how crucially needed the ghostbusters is to save the general public in the movie. It also help strengthen the story’s essential character (ethos)—the ultimate inexplicable supernatural…
