  • “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 ..........................................................................................................................

  • Generic Transformation in the Superhero Film Genre by Noah Goodman
    GENERIC TRANSFORMATION IN THE SUPERHERO FILM GENRE BY NOAH GOODMAN Reaffirmation of Myth: Humorous Burlesque: • Questions the • Pokes fun at the traditional heroic overused tropes of the values of the genre genre • Lighter, comedic tone • Reaffirms traditional • Graphic violence as heroic values as comedy being true • Non-heroic protagonist • Enforces the idea of • Satirizes interconnection (i.e. interconnected the MCU) superhero films INTRODUCTION: According to film genre theorist, John G. Cawelti, there are four modes at which a film genre can undergo generic transformation. Cawelti states these modes are “humorous burlesque, evocation of nostalgia, demythologization of generic myth, and the affirmation of myth as myth” (Cawelti 295). Despite it being a relatively new film genre, the superhero genre has already had a multitude of films to already fit these four modes declared by Cawelti. However, no other films express these four modes as greatly as Tim Miller’s Deadpool (2016), Patty Jenkin’s Wonder Woman (2017), James Mangold’s Logan (2017), and Joe and Anthony Russo’s Captain America: The Winter Soldier (2014), respectively. DEFINITION OFTERMS: • Humorous Burlesque: tropes used in the genre are situated in a way to invoke laughter and are satirized • Evocation of Nostalgia: uses genre conventions to recreate aura of the past while establishing a relationship to the present • Demythologization: invokes the traditional genre conventions and demonstrates them as inadequate and destructive • Reaffirmation of Myth: questions genre conventions and ultimately reaffirmed at least partially Demythologization: Evocation of • More realistic tone Nostalgia: • Reference to myth as • Repisodic nostalgia being inadequate and based around pop false culture • Disillusioned • Traditional, heroic protagonist protagonist with • Shows the violence of unwavering beliefs super heroic actions • Thematic mending of • Darker promotional past and present material societal issues.

Admission was often free and cinema.” Films were produced by one of a handful of state-owned film studios— tickets were distributed to employees of various hospitals, factories, schools, and Changchun Film Studio, Beijing Film Studio, Shanghai Film Studio, Xi’an Film other work units. While these films were an important part of popular culture Studio, etc.—and the resulting films were dubbed in pitch-perfect Mandarin during the height of the socialist period, film was also a powerful tool for education Chinese, shot entirely on location in China by a local cast and crew, and produced and propaganda—in fact, one could argue that from 1949 (the founding of the almost exclusively for mainland Chinese film audiences.
