Why Marvel Should Replace Halle Berry with Beyonce As Storm Entertainment: Why Marvel Should Replace Halle Berry With Beyonce As Storm Author : Robert D. Cobb With a recent report from ComicBook.com—via the Daily Star—about Marvel reaching out to Beyonce about a possible role in Marvel’s up-coming Phase III slate of movies, I feel that she would be the perfect replacement of long-time X-Men actress Halle Berry as Storm. While some may think it may seem unfeasible that Marvel would even consider severing ties with the Academy Award-winning actress, with rumors per DishNation.com of Berry being “shocked and hurt” that he screen time was serious cut in the recent “X-Men: Days Of Futures Past”, and Marvel may in fact consider going in a different direction entirely. Enter Beyonce. This wouldn’t be the first time that Marvel has re-cast a veteran actress, as they recast Jennifer Lawrence for the role of Mystique, that was previously held by Rebecca Romijn. Obviously, this was due in part to the X- Men reboot and the need for younger characters for the sake of continuity, but if Marvel were to re-cast and replace Berry with Beyonce, it would not be unprecedented. With the recent Chadwick Boseman-‘Black Panther’ movie set to be one of the major tentpoles in Marvel’s Phase III due to open in 2017, the need for a younger Storm—as she and T’Challa do eventually marry—then, if I were a betting man, that would be the role that Marvel is likely going to approach the former Destiny’s Child singer about. While it may seem to be a reach now due to the very sticky issue of 20th Century Fox owning the rights to the X-Men and Marvel recently being acquired by Disney, but if the aforementioned reports of Berry being unhappy are true and Beyonce being approached, it wouldn’t be all too shocking if there’s a new storm coming soon to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. 1 / 1 Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org).

  • Alternative Portrayals of Anorexia Nervosa and Its Symptoms on Pro
    Alternative portrayals of anorexia nervosa and its symptoms on pro-anorexic websites: a thematic analysis of website contents A research report submitted in fulfilment of the requirement for the degree MA by coursework and research report in the field of Clinical Psychology In the faculty of humanities at the University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, 21 November 2008 By: Lisa Nicole Cardoso Da Rocha Supervisor: Dr. Carol Long WORD COUNT: 25 828 1 Abstract The internet has become an invaluable source of medical information in the twenty first century. How some individuals have come to use this medium has created a stir among parents and the mental health community. One such use has been the promotion of anorexia nervosa as a healthy lifestyle choice on Pro-Anorexia (Ana) websites. These have become controversial spaces due to their presumed influence on both the initiation and maintenance of anorexia nervosa. Despite growing concern regarding the contents of Pro-Ana websites, limited research has been conducted in this area resulting in a lack of awareness of the role, contents and unique perspective contained on these sites. Therefore the purpose of this qualitative study was to explore how anorexia nervosa is alternatively portrayed on Pro-Ana websites and how this portrayal either maintains or challenges eating disordered symptomology. Thematic content analysis of the text contained on two of the most popular Pro-Ana websites yielded five major themes: perfection and control, pain and suffering, secrecy, exclusion and medical and psychological knowledge. The results suggested that there is a large discrepancy between the portrayal of anorexia nervosa on Pro-Ana websites as a healthy lifestyle choice and the current clinical perspective which views anorexia as a dangerous and fatal illness.

Revenue is also the most important and intuitionistic feedback to producers, directors and actors. Therefore it is worth for us to put effort on analyzing what factors correlate to revenue, so that producers, directors and actors know how to get higher revenue on next movie by focusing on most correlated factors. Our project focuses on anaylzing all kinds of factors that correlated to revenue, for example, genres, elements in the movie, popularity, release month, runtime, vote average, vote count on website and cast etc. After analysis, we can clearly know what are the crucial factors to a movie's revenue and our analysis can be used as a guide for people shooting movies who want to earn higher renveue for their next movie. They can focus on those most correlated factors, for example, shooting specific genre and hire some actors who have higher average revenue. Reasrch Question: Various factors blend together to create a high revenue for movie, but what are the most important aspect contribute to higher revenue? What aspects should people put more effort on and what factors should people focus on when they try to higher the revenue of a movie? http://localhost:8888/nbconvert/html/Desktop/MyProjects/Pr_085/FinalProject.ipynb?download=false Page 1 of 62 FinalProject 25/08/2018, 930 PM Hypothesis: We predict that the following factors contribute the most to movie revenue.

  • “Isn't It Swell... Nowadays?”: the Reception History of Chicago On
    “Isn’t It Swell . Nowadays?”: The Reception History of Chicago on Stage and Screen A thesis submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Music in the Division of Composition, Musicology, and Theory of the College-Conservatory of Music by Michael M. Kennedy BM, Butler University, 2004 MM, University of Hartford, 2008 Committee Chair: bruce d. mcclung, PhD Abstract The musical Chicago represents an anomaly in Broadway history: its 1996 revival far surpassed the modest success of the original 1975 production. Despite the original production’s box-office accomplishments, it received disparaging reviews regarding the cynicism of the work’s content. The musical celebrates the crimes and acquittals of two murderesses, and is based on Maurine Dallas Watkins’s coverage as a Chicago Tribune reporter of two 1924 murder cases, from which she generated a 1926 Broadway play. The 1975 Broadway production of Chicago: A Musical Vaudeville utilized this historical source material to comment on contemporary American society, highlighting parallels between the U.S. justice system and the entertainment industry, which critics and audiences of the post-Watergate era deemed as too cynical. Although Chicago initially achieved a mixed reception, the revival’s producers made few changes to John Kander’s music, Fred Ebb’s lyrics, and Ebb and Bob Fosse’s book, aside from simplifying the title to Chicago: The Musical. This suggests that the musical’s newfound success can be attributed to a societal shift in the perception of its subject matter. With further success from Chicago’s 2002 film adaptation, the originally dark and sardonic material became a smash hit and found itself as mainstream entertainment at the turn of the millennium.
