The total number of films currently being shown is 26 films or 32 including the 3D versions. 23 (28 including 3D's) out these 32 films are being shown at the Odeon cinema showing the multiplex’s desire to show as many films as possible from the list of blockbusters. Furthermore the types of film shown are those designed to draw in as many people as possible showing the higher interest in profit more than anything else. The majority of these are aimed at a male audience between the ages of 10 and 18. this is shown by the majority of 12A and 15 certificates and male based genres, namely comedies and action films.
Of these 32 films 2 are British and 30 are American.
93.75% are from the USA
6.25% are from Britain
0% are from other countries
These statistics show that Hollywood completely dominates the film distribution with a meagre supply from our own country compared to the massive amounts coming from the USA. Moreover the lack of foreign language films is a significant drain on our culture while at the same time we are drip fed on the American view on everything from attitude to war to our ideology on life.
Cinema city is currently showing 5 films of which: 1 is American, 2 are British, 1 is Argentinean and 1 is French. This is starkly contrasting to the Odeon listings as it instantly shows a far more cultured selection, and while there is less on offer the types of film being shown appeal to a far more sophisticated audience who wish to see a film for its achievements rather than because it’s been excessively advertised. These factors create a far more pleasant ambience and the fact that they also show films from any year (rather than just the new ones) means that a lot of the films will be on show due to public demand meaning that they are what the people want. Finally cinema city also changes its listings far more often than the other cinemas meaning that in effect they have more on offer than other cinemas.
This research was carried out in the cinemas of Norwich between the 5th and 10th of October.
Would you please post your work under the correct labels. This is urgent.
ReplyDeleteYou need to head this work up properly and include the date of the research and explain the city where the research was carried out.
You also need to set this out in a more organised way as requested in the document I gave you.
Avoid being slap dash and minimalising the impact of some of the interesting points you have made.
Patrick I asked you to post your work under the corrct labels a month ago. Could you please sort this without delay or email me if you are having problems.
