In the film, I have heard of the film Jennifer's Body , however, I have not viewed it. The film has been on my list of movies to watch for awhile. Since I have never seen the film, I took advantage of watching the trailer to get an insiders look at the theme. After viewing the trailer, the film looks funny. It is a comedy with a mix of horror genre. In my opinion, there seems to be a parody off of the movie Mean Girls . The movie seems to be a typical high school comedy. The characters host a hot and popular cheerleader and then the typical odd and nerdy girl. They are complete opposites of each other, but they are best friends. The popular girl is named Jennifer, and she only seems to care about herself. The dorky friend Needy, seems to care about Jennifer and helps her out. After watching the trailer, Jennifer has a secret, that she likes to kill boys. This becomes a huge plot twist within plot the movie. The movie really seems to mirror the   Mean Girls film, but Jennifer res...

Superbad looks like an extremely hilarious movie. Personally, I have never seen the movie, but now I want too. I could see why so many people enjoy it. I watched the trailer and even the trailer was hilarious. The movie is about a group of boys, who are not the most popular in the school. The group of friends seem to be incredibly awkward. The friend group gets invited to a huge high school party, and they really want to go to impress the girls they like. One of the boys offers to bring alcohol to make themselves look cooler. One of their friends has a fake ID to get the alcohol, but they really struggle to retrieve the alcohol. Throughout the movie they go through difficult obstacle courses to try and be cool. The movie seems to be funny. I ended up watching a clip of the gas station scene. One of their friends with a fake ID goes to buy alcohol. He looks nothing like his fake ID and his name doesn’t even match on the ID as well. The lady asks for his ID and acts super nervous an...

The show Tom and Jerry is a classic. Tom and Jerry was a show that appeared in my childhood. Although it was not my favorite show growing up, it always gave me a good laugh. If you didn’t watch Tom and Jerry growing up, you were crazy. The show, Tom and Jerry , is a short series made up of short animated episodes that are about 15 minutes. The show is quite simple. The cat, Tom, likes to chase and create conflicts with the mouse, Jerry. This cartoon is based off of cat and mouse play. What truly makes the show funny is that the characters, Tom and Jerry, are given human abilities. They are smart characters for being a cat and mouse. Most of the show is made of the incongruity theory. The fact that Jerry the mouse can react and respond to Tom’s teasing towards Jerry is so funny. The back and forth satire that is displayed between Tom and Jerry plays out the friction between cat and mouse. One of the best moments of the show is that Jerry the mouse like to use violent weapons against To...

Lead Blog Post- Deadpool

The movie Deadpool is one of the funniest movies I have seen in awhile. When I am looking for a good laugh, I usually turn to this movie. I mean who couldn’t like it, its a superhero movie and it is a comedy, and come on who can’t love a good movie with Ryan Reynolds in it. The movie follows the character Wade Wilson, who works as a mercenary. He is just a man living his life, finally he is happy in a long time he even has a girlfriend and he finds out that he has Cancer. He starts to give up in life, and turns to an evil scientist named Ajax who says he will cure his cancer, but he actually tortures him. He becomes a guinea pig and is an experiment. This is how he is transformed into Deadpool. He receives his superpowers through this experiment. You may ask to yourself, what is his superpower, being ugly? Well, his superpower is being able to heal very fast, so pretty much he is indestructible. He also has a twisted sense of humor. With Wade’s new superpowers, he transform into De...

I have never heard of the TV show, The Good Place , but its sounds very entertaining. I watched the TV show trailer and it looks like a very good program. It seems like a very funny show, and I kinda want to start watching it. It is about this women who finds out that she has died and has been sent to this Good Place which represents heaven. But in reality they have been sent to the Bad Place which represents hell where they will suffer. Each character goes through different struggles and suffer in different ways. The main character is trying to find out why she is here. The Good Place seems to have a diverse amount of characters living there including a robot, named is Janet. She knows pretty much anything you need to know. The program seems to show a lot of incongruity theory and benign violation. In the scenes described, its seems that there are many lines  that may offer a double take, making you think twice. The scene where she mentions the advice that her mother gave her i...

Since the winter season is coming upon us, I also am excited that Christmas is around the corner. Christmas in December is one of the happiest times during the year. The best part is the the Christmas cookies, decorations, and of course the holiday movies. One of the most popular Christmas movies is Elf. I would have to agree with you on how it is one of the best Christmas movies around. It actually took me awhile to fall in love with the movie Elf. I always thought it was corny and tacky and I never really understood it until a couple years ago. But now that I watch it every Christmas, I have to agree on how it is one of the best Christmas movies around. The movie itself is quite funny. Buddy the elf, is an orphan that Santa has brought back from the north pole. He doesn’t look like all of the other elves because he is a human. The whole point of the movie is that he goes to New York in search of his dad. One of the funniest things about the movie, is that buddy walks around downtow...

The Vines that Nikoleta posted are quite hilarious. It brought back some nostalgia to when Vine was the thing of our generation. Vine was the place to get a good laugh and was a place to make fun of people. I would have to agree with you when you say that almost every conversation with friends groups at the time used to always have a Vine reference in it. Now that Vine may not be as popular, it still is somewhat alive through other social media. Personally, it was never my go to social media but I enjoyed it at the time. Every now and then the Vines find a way to pop up in a newsfeed, and there even still being made as you mentioned. I watched the Vines that you provided and they are very funny. I think my favorite one is the Eggs one. It was about this “chicken” laying its eggs. The man came up to the “chicken” to take the eggs, and the “chicken” gets very upset because he took his eggs. It seems so stupid but it is so funny. This video is a prime example of the theories of humor. M...
