Pop Culture: TV & Movies⭐

Star Wars, Black Panther, Harry Potter, Game of Thrones, The Office and Flavor of Love. All of these movies and shows have made their mark by either breaking box office records, having enormous fanbases, making cultural impacts and bringing in iconic and classic gifs for years to come. Some other movies that are important in pop culture are The Wizard of Oz, The Godfather, and Scarface. The Wizard of Oz is significantly important because it was one of the first movies shot in technicolor. What makes a movie and show enjoyable is the basis of a good plot, if it doesn't have a good plot then would you really want to watch it? An example is in the 1977 hit film Star Wars: A New Hope, the plot in this movie was that a young Luke Skywalker alongside with the help of some new friend Han Solo and Chewbacca, must go and help save Princess Leia for Darth Vader at the same time helping the Rebel Alliance, while trying to restore peace and justice to the galaxy. As you can see this must've been a good plot because in 325 we will be getting what maybe will be the last movie in the Star Wars Saga. The filmography also plays a huge part in a film. How good a certain backdrop looks, the scenery, the CGI, this all plays an important role to grasp the viewer's attention. An example would be in Speed Racer where to me the CGI was superb also The Great Gatsby is a movie where the filmography was amazing.

A good show/film must have a strong fanbase or how else will you be able to see your favorite characters on the big screen? It must have memorable moments and characters such as Tiffany "New York" Pollard who in my book is the queen of reality tv. Without memorable moments and characters, we wouldn't have some of our favorite gifs such as these!

Lastly, the use of iconic quotes and amazing casting leads to the creations of great entertainment.

Pop Culture: Anime

Pop Culture: Anime Edition⭐ Father and Son duo Minato and Naruto alongside the 9 tails fox Kurama in the hit anime Naruto. Naruto, Dragon Ball Z, Sailor Moon, Yu-Gi-Oh, Pokemon, and Bleach are just a few amongst the plethora of popular anime. Anime is defined as a Japanese style of cartoons that are mostly aimed at adults and children. I remember when I was growing up if you liked anime, you'd be deemed as a nerd or weird. Now flashforward 10 years later, anime has gotten a pretty good reception amongst American culture. What makes it influential is its amazing story-telling, growth amongst characters, aesthetics, and cool graphics. Movies like the Matrix and Ghost In The Shell were heavily influenced by anime. The anime characters would go on to influence American cartoons by cartoons introducing characters who now had big round eyes and facial expressions. Some examples of these would be Teen Titans Go, Nickelodeon's Avatar The Last Airbender and The Boondock...
