i feel almost guilty that i haven't made a blog for so long, but if I'm totally honest i missed bills first lecture and no one could give me any idea of what it was about, apparently it was rather pointless, so obviously i didn't write a blog for it... sorry... half sorry... not very sorry at all... lol
however im not always so lazy as to miss a lecture, the first lecture of bills was missed because of a deadline and a stupid printer lol, but alas i went to the second one... i really have NO IDEA what it was about. in fact no one i spoke to about the lecture knew what it was about even though we were all there...
very unfortunate hey? because now i'm at odds with the blogs and i'm thinking, what am i going to write my blog on? i do remember one thing about the most recent lecture. we were told to say what genre we though a film to be then we were told we were wrong... fairly pointless, apparently blade runner isn't sci-fi its film noir and starwars also isnt sci-fi its an old western... i could see the point of this, basically he was saying films have multiple genres! lol lame way of going about saying it! but there we go! lol
films have multiple genres... i dont really know what to say about this, its true we all know it is, and essentially the things pointed out were essentially large cases of intertextuality... fuck, genres are essentially a huge form of intertextuality... how do you know a films a horror film? because theres a bad guy and people running scared? how do you know if your watching a slasher movie? the black guy dies first... weve all seen these movies, its all fairly obvious stuff... scoreone for intertextuality i guess?
