Most entrepreneurs when they enter into business, they usually focus on getting more money but in the two films “China or Bust” and “Big Dreams, Little Tokyo” the entrepreneurs seeks to ensure that the people first accept them.

The fact that the two negotiating partners were from two different cultures majorly American and Japanese culture made gives a worry that one is going to be ...

While watching the play “Our Lady of 121st Street” , I could not stop laughing, the events in this play were staged or rather developed in a way that exemplify amusement and mirth. Though the instigating event of the missing corpses was rather a sad event, other events that unfolded subsequently were in essence funny and amusing.

Documentary Food Inc., directed by Robert Kenner, is telling a story about food industry that is in control by huge corporations. Documentary itself is divided in several smaller portions that are connected. Every topic is well covered and explained, with appropriate witnesses and facts. Sometimes documentary is shocking and hard to believe. Shocking to see enormous fields full of cows that are waiting to be slaughtered and transformed to products. Fields full of corn, so long and wide that seems as there is no end to it. Hard to imagine how is possible to keep human population in dark and ...

Race and ethnicity have become rampant in most of the countries; thereby fuelling hatred and conflicts among the people. It has become a norm to identifying a person not by his name that on the basis of the ethnic community where they come from.

Reflection on Globalization: Yesterday and Today

Reflection on Globalization: Yesterday and Today was a talk delivered by known economist Paul Krugman at Princeton University. The talk focused on the phenomena of Globalization and what it did to the world and its role the ‘mess’ it caused.

People were replaced by machines, he mentioned, because longshoremen were replaced ...

The film is a great expose about the story behind the supermarket foods. It educates the viewers about the misconception and sometimes deception being employed by the supermarket giants. It tells the story of the very few big retailers that controlled the supermarket business and the control they have at the farmers and price. Aside from the animal welfare issues that are raised by the film, labor practices are also questionable because the workers’ right and safety are also put in danger.
Most chicken farms are being subsidized by giant food companies. These farmhouses chickens in a tightly cramped space ...

I do believe that legislations like SOPA, ACTA, PIPA, TPP, and ITU should be there in the online world. They help reduce piracy and promote creativity. With these legislations in place, there is increased protection of content creators. The cloning of products from the United States by China and India is not right because it will kill the economy. In the end, the social aspect that these technologies wanted to bring forth will still be achieved. The laws on copyrights should be implemented and in place. With the strict implementations of these laws, I strongly believe that a free economy ...

The business world today depends on building their businesses to meet the expected targets. One sure way of achieving this is through advertisements. Advertisements can be in the form of television commercials. Many people at times do not subscribe to the commercials on the television. Billboards on the streets are sometimes not preferred, yet people would take longer to view those that have funny elements.
The movie “Art & Copy” gives a different view about advertisements. The movie indicates that people have no problem with the advertisements. However, they have a problem with those advertisements that do not meet their expectations. ...

My first impression of America’s food system after watching America Revealed: Food Machine was amazement. I was amazed and awed by how much Americans eat and how the farming industry has tried to cope with this need – and successfully, too. However, I guess that saying that the farming industry has coped successfully is quite questionable in that while it does effectively and efficiently meet the dietary needs of Americans, as well as of people from other countries, it doesn’t come without a price.
Watching the video made me realize how powerful technology is. This is very evident ...

In the summer of 1974 a then 26 year old Steven Spielberg is going about his business of making sure that his movie about a shark that had overshot the expected $3.5 million budget does not sink his career in Hollywood.

The narrator in the film stated, that: “a corporation is one form of business ownership; group of individuals working together, to serve a variety of objectives, the principal one of which is earning large growing sustained legal returns for the people, who own the business” (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y888wVY5hzw).

The whole idea of a woman’s body being used as an object and how the advertisers use it to market their products is shocking. It is sad that we enjoy such adverts and not really understanding what they imply. Some of the sections that stood out is trying to replace the attraction that men have towards women to the products being advertised. Realizing that sex and passion are one of the main things that men look for in men, sexually erosive parts have been used and replaced with products such as beer and cars. This definitely diminishes the role ...

The movie “Killing Us Softly 4” shows the various ways of scrutinizing a woman’s body, and how the women are ridiculously represented in the advertisement industry. Jean Kilbourne the speaker in the movie has collected a lot of evidence on how a woman is portrayed in ads since 1960’s. Advertisers always target to persuade the customers to buy products, and Kilbourne displays the manner in which the companies create ads for various products and trade morals and ethics, way of life, and measurable things, and the most common perception displayed in the advertisement portrays the female gender as a quiet, delicate, ...

Trade Liberalization in Jamaica began in the 1970s following the International Monetary Fund stabilization programs and further accelerated by the World Bank structural programs in the 1980s.

For the CEO position, I choose “Gordon Gekko” from the movie “Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps”.

Asian horror, as a genre, carries with it a generous mix of scathing subtext and grotesque images. Whether witnessing the wrath of an uncanny ghost girl, seeing people murdered in mountains of gore, or the many subtle avenues in between, many of the best Asian horror films combine shocking sights with potent messages in order to convey an anxiety present in that society at the time. "Setting aside the moral ramifications of such manifest extremities, we can identify the current boom enjoyed by Asian horror and extreme cinema and discern a complex nexus of local, regional and global relationships in play" (Choi ...

Senator Jay Billington Bulworth decides to commit suicide by staging his own assassination and takes out a $10 million life insurance policy.

The opening sequence of the film features Velma Kelly (Catherine Zeta-Jones) alone on stage singing "All That Jazz," while Roxie Hart (Renee Zellweger) watches.

By taking ownership of her femininity, Roxie finds the courage to kill Fred and try to make it in the business. In the closing sequence, in which Velma and Roxie are performing together, Roxie finally reaches the level of strength and poise that is contained by Velma, and they both exhibit it on ...

It also labeled this as environmentally and economically unsustainable.
The other evidence used in the film is ...

Personal Reflection

The movie was a real eye opener for me. Until I saw it, I never really understood what happened to cause the 2008 meltdown. I never understood what the big deal was about home mortgages. All I knew then was that the U.S. and the world were in a financial crisis.

The movie made me realize how complex and complicated it all was. It was quite surprising for me to learn that the fate of the American economy – probably even that of the world – lay in the hands of a few powerful men. I was especially struck by what Timothy Geithner told ...

At 22, Hughes inherits his family business of aviation tools and is directing his maiden film Hell’s Angels. It is perhaps an early influence of the onset of OCD that Hughes becomes obsessively compulsed ...

Corporations have been blamed for so many problems in the world. Chief among these is air, land and water pollution.

Unfortunately, this influence has been used in a bad way, mainly for the benefit of the corporations especially their owners and senior officers, leading to the abuse ...

Watching the movie, “The Corporation” is an eye opener for me. One of the things that struck me is the statement made by Michael Moore that the main motivation of corporations is the bottom-line, that is, to make as much profit as they can. It is saddening that most corporations only take into consideration their stockholders, without concern for their other stakeholders such as their employees and customers. Moore mentions further that for corporations, “there is no such thing as enough”. From the movie, I also learned that it is legal for corporations to put profit over the public ...

Any person can acknowledge that sex sells, particularly Carl Jr. Considering the commercials done by Mr. Carl Jr., it is clear that he uses models that are extremely sexualized for more than ten years. There is no exception to the advert where Charlotte McKinney, a model was the center of everybody’s attention for the approximately 50 second commercial. After a closer look at the advert, this essay is to give its presentation more into what goes in the commercial rather than just boobs and burgers. Consideration is given to the distribution of characters (femininity versus masculinity), text and ...
