Shattered Glass This was the best movie ever. I just have to say that. It almost boggles the mind exactly how in depth the journalistic verification process goes in an effort to bring the public true information; the amount of editors it takes‚ how many revisions the writer makes and the number of times each article is read and reread before print.

Have you ever wondered why is there so much "empty space" in space if there are no other intelligent beings we can communicate with? If this would be true‚ the whole universe would be a complete waste since humans will never be able to explore not one percent of it. Also‚ there is so much evidence about aliens‚ so many sightings and encounters that it is very hard to disprove them all. If the theory of evolution is taken into consideration‚ the possibilities of intelligent life forming only on Earth

In the novel‚ Full Tilt‚ Neal Shusterman uses the gothic element “altered senses‚ screams‚ and bloody hands” to establish the depressing mood and atmosphere. Altered senses was the first gothic element I chose. “there were times that he sort of slipped out of phase with reality- a holdover‚ I guess‚ from those early years when he was so locked in his own private universe. It wasn’t just that he didn’t see the big picture. Sometimes he saw a different picture entirely.” In this quote from the book
