  • Yahoo! Movies to Unveil Special Preview of Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle
    Yahoo! Movies To Unveil Special Preview Of Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle LOS ANGELES -- Oct. 28, 2002 -- Yahoo! Movies, the Web's leading movie site in terms of audience size according to Nielsen//NetRatings (September 2002), will offer film fans their first glimpse of Cameron Diaz, Drew Barrymore and Lucy Liu in Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle five days before the trailer's debut in movie theaters. The much-anticipated preview of the Columbia Pictures movie premieres today at http://movies.yahoo.com and at http://www.sony.com/charliesangels/. The release of the trailer for Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle on Yahoo! Movies reflects a fan-driven trend emerging in the online marketplace, with 40% of all ticket-buyers hearing about a film via the Internet (NRG, 2002). Whether trailers, outtakes, extended sequences or bloopers, film buffs are seeking exclusive footage weeks or even months before the film's release date. Filmmakers are responding in recognition of growing consumer appetite for this type of content and the ultimate potential impact on ticket sales. "We're proud to host this special preview of Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle, already a fan favorite on our site," said Doug Hirsch, senior director of Yahoo! Movies. "Yahoo! Movies has a tremendous track record for debuting the kind of footage that gets fans excited for the film's release. We've produced over one hundred online exclusives in conjunction with Hollywood's largest film studios, but we think this will be one of our most popular previews." The Angels trailer is the latest in a series of Yahoo! Movies Exclusives, a program of pre-release content that debuted in 1999.

  • The Edward R. Murrow of Docudramas and Documentary
    Media History Monographs 12:1 (2010) ISSN 1940-8862 The Edward R. Murrow of Docudramas and Documentary By Lawrence N. Strout Mississippi State University Three major TV and film productions about Edward R. Murrow‟s life are the subject of this research: Murrow, HBO, 1986; Edward R. Murrow: This Reporter, PBS, 1990; and Good Night, and Good Luck, Warner Brothers, 2005. Murrow has frequently been referred to as the “father” of broadcast journalism. So, studying the “documentation” of his life in an attempt to ascertain its historical role in supporting, challenging, and/or adding to the collective memory and mythology surrounding him is important. Research on the docudramas and documentary suggests the depiction that provided the least amount of context regarding Murrow‟s life (Good Night) may be the most available for viewing (DVD). Therefore, Good Night might ultimately contribute to this generation (and the next) having a more narrow and skewed memory of Murrow. And, Good Night even seems to add (if that is possible) to Murrow‟s already “larger than life” mythological image. ©2010 Lawrence N. Strout Media History Monographs 12:1 Strout: Edward R.

  • “Why So Serious?” Comics, Film and Politics, Or the Comic Book Film As the Answer to the Question of Identity and Narrative in a Post-9/11 World
    ABSTRACT “WHY SO SERIOUS?” COMICS, FILM AND POLITICS, OR THE COMIC BOOK FILM AS THE ANSWER TO THE QUESTION OF IDENTITY AND NARRATIVE IN A POST-9/11 WORLD by Kyle Andrew Moody This thesis analyzes a trend in a subgenre of motion pictures that are designed to not only entertain, but also provide a message for the modern world after the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. The analysis provides a critical look at three different films as artifacts of post-9/11 culture, showing how the integration of certain elements made them allegorical works regarding the status of the United States in the aftermath of the attacks. Jean Baudrillard‟s postmodern theory of simulation and simulacra was utilized to provide a context for the films that tap into themes reflecting post-9/11 reality. The results were analyzed by critically examining the source material, with a cultural criticism emerging regarding the progression of this subgenre of motion pictures as meaningful work. “WHY SO SERIOUS?” COMICS, FILM AND POLITICS, OR THE COMIC BOOK FILM AS THE ANSWER TO THE QUESTION OF IDENTITY AND NARRATIVE IN A POST-9/11 WORLD A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of Miami University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Department of Communications Mass Communications Area by Kyle Andrew Moody Miami University Oxford, Ohio 2009 Advisor ___________________ Dr. Bruce Drushel Reader ___________________ Dr. Ronald Scott Reader ___________________ Dr. David Sholle TABLE OF CONTENTS ACKNOWLEDGMENTS ..........................................................................................................................
