Science fiction films can tell a lot about how Americans think about the environment and the entanglements between them. Science Fiction and disaster films are not a unique phenomena in American cinema. These films are also in cultures that produce movies. Japan would be one of these cultures with the films like Godzilla and The Sinking of Japan. Movies provide an insight into what these people fear while also giving commentary as to what people think of the world. Ever since the 1950’s Science fiction

While popular and widely watched the movie Pocahontas is an innaccurate portrail of a signifigant historical event. The Disney Corporation is not known for it’s accurate portrails of historical events and when producing the animated film Pocahontas‚ Disney did not fail in it’s nonchalant attitude concerning historic fact.

A picture is worth a thousand words‚ but is it really? A picture to me is not a thousand words‚ but a thousand ideas. The idea of a picture itself is so simple‚ yet so remarkable in the way that we can look a picture and instantly relive a previous memory or experience.

I had no idea back then that I would be who
