Plot Blackadder Goes Forth is set in 1917 on the Western Front in the trenches of World War I. Captain Edmund Blackadder is a professional soldier in the British Army who, until the outbreak of the Great War, has enjoyed a relatively danger-free existence fighting natives who were usually "two feet tall and armed with dried grass". Finding himself trapped in the trenches with another "big push" planned, his concern is to avoid being sent over the top to certain death. The show thus chronicles Blackadder's attempts to escape the trenches through various schemes, most of which fail due to bad fortune, misunderstandings and the general incompetence of his comrades.

AMERICAN MASCULINITY AND HOMOSOCIAL BEHAVIOR IN THE BROMANCE ERA by DIANA SARGENT Under the Direction of Patricia Davis ABSTRACT This study examines and reflects upon the current “bromance” culture that has emerged in American society and aims to conceptualize how media texts relate to masculine hegemony. Attention to current media portrayals, codes of conduct, rituals, homosocial interaction, and con- structions of masculinity in American culture is essential for the evaluation of the current era of American masculinity. Mediated portrayals present an ironic position on male closeness, dictate how men should behave towards women and other men, and create real life situations in which these mediated expectations are fostered and put into practice. Textual analyses of the films Superbad and I Love You, Man and the television series How I Met Your Mother were conducted, as well as an ethnographic study of cult film audiences of The Room to better understand mani- festations of homosocial environments in mediated texts and in real life settings.

Free from their parents’ rules, their idyllic summer quickly becomes a test of friendship as each boy learns to appreciate the fact that family - whether it is the one you’re born into or the one you create – is something you can't run away from. ABOUT THE PRODUCTION The Kings of Summer began in the imagination of writer Chris Galletta, who penned his script during his off hours while he was working in the music department of “The Late Show with David Letterman.” After some false starts in screenwriting, Galletta shunned his impulse to write a high-concept tentpole feature and craft something more character-driven and personal.

  • Black Adder II: “Bells”
    Black Adder II: “Bells” UK TV sitcom: 1985 : dir. : BBC : ? x ? min prod: : scr: Richard Curtis & Ben Elton : dir.ph.: ……….…………………………………………………………………………………………………… Rowan Atkinson; Miranda Richardson; Stephen Fry; Rik Mayall Ref: Pages Sources Stills Words Ω 8 M Copy on VHS Last Viewed 5659 1 0 0 453 No April 2002 In successive seasons this sitcom followed the fortunes of the Blackadder dynasty at different epochs of British history, the second (and best) series set at the court of Elizabeth I (Miranda Richardson). Blackadder himself (Atkinson) is a callous, world-weary courtier with a dungheap of a personal servant, Baldrick, and a witless aristocratic sidekick. In this episode a young woman comes to seek service with him disguised as a boy, rather than turn to prostitution to prevent her aged parent being turned onto the streets. Blackadder finds himself uncomfortably drawn to this page boy, “Bob”, seeks medical help and finally consults an old mystic woman for a cure. Nothing will mitigate his lust for the lad, but his masculinity is salvaged when “Bob” finally comes out to him as female. Ecstatic, he makes wedding plans at once, only to have his bride snatched away at the altar by a hellraising sea captain and ladykiller (Rik Mayall). This might as easily have been written for Frankie Howerd’s bawdy “Up Pompeii” series, except that in the intervening decade it had ceased to be kosher to make lewd fun out of men screwing boys. In the seventies “Monty Python” contained frequent risqué allusions to pederasty without anyone raising a disapproving voice, but by 1985 it had become a topic decidedly off-limits to humour.

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?
