1. Id X.

X is one of the greatest movies ever made, and also one of the most divisive among

critics. In 2003, it topped the list of "Best Endings Ever" in a poll, while simultaneously

topping the list of worst movie of all time. This is one of the best examples in

hollywood, how hype surrounding a particular movie, led to disliking of that particular

movie among a huge group of people, who want to dissociate itselves from gentry.

The British film magazine Empire reduced their rating of the film from the maximum

five stars and an enthusiastic review, to four stars with a less positive review in a later

edition. Empire eventually reinstated its original five star rating of the film,

commenting, "It should be no surprise then that

it became fashionable to bash X at approximately the same time it became clear that

this was the planet's favourite film. Ever. Them's the facts."

Page 66: Inter-Departmental Finals

2. Id X.

Joan Jett and Cherrie Curry were the founding members of The Runaways. The

Runaways was an all-female band, spawning couple of hits, Cherry Bomb, Queens of

Noise. Though they never became a major success in USA, they became a sensation

in Japan. The band soon split up, Joan Jett later went to found another band Joan Jett

& the Blackhearts, and produced many hits.

A movie was based on The Runaways with X playing Joan Jett. Even though X's

portrayal of Joan Jett was received positively, career of X was marred heavily by her

association with a hugely popular franchise. X's acting in that franchise was panned

by critics universally. It took a lot of effort for X to shed her image(or did she?). X was

awarded Razzies award for reedeming herself by playing another character in a 2014

movie.

Image related to Runaways movie on next slide.

3. Give me the interpretation, which is being talked about.

X is one of the most loved and followed movie franchise ever. There is one

interpretation, which usually takes the blame away from all mediocre alterations of X,

as it usually tops the list with it's no-sense variation on the original story. Some of the

reviews are:

"Size vanquishes both substance and subtlety in the overhyped, half-cocked

and humorless resurrection of dear old X. It might well be titled Iguana Get You

Sucka."

"Throughout X, New York endures the most sustained rainfall in all of movie

history. Most of the action takes place at night, but even the daytime scenes unfold

under darkly overcast skies, which, of course, makes it all the easier for Y to obscure

X's features for the maximum amount of time to generate the maximum amount of

suspense."

X is one of the most successful porn(read disaster porn) director ever. His movies are

an epitome of box office glory. His movies are destined to success, promting one

reviewer to say:

Are there any ideas here? Other than to make more than $1.5bn, what is the

point of a X movie?

X doesn't seem to care about critics, and his classic "haters gonna hate" attitude

always add to that. He said about critics, that:

[Naysayers] love to hate, and I don’t care; let them hate. They’re still going to

see the movie! I think it’s good to get a little tension. Very good.

Even X's crew(not everyone) hate him, one of his regular(recent) collaborator,Y

compared him to hitler. X didn't cared about this comparison, but producer,Z of the film

got Y fired from his project, prompting

X to hire Y on one of his other projects, on which Z was not the producer(obviously).

born with a higher awareness of the Force than humans. Their brains

are different; they have more X in their cells.

Origin of X was supposedly inspired from mitochondria. X have had

some negative reception among fans; some see them as adding hard

science to the alleged "mysteriousness" or spirituality of the Force and

dislike what they see as a new concept. Anakin Skywalker is

considered to be conceived by X.

X is one(?) of the despised superheroes in Marvel Universe. Neither the character is

properly development nor proper explanations is provided for his superpowers.

Some think that X was designed just to prove that there is someone in Marvel

Universe, who can stand upto Superman on power scale or can stop Superman from

defeating all Marvel Superheroes single-handedly.

X is a poor imitation of Superman, in Marvel style, take a great character, mess up his

personal life and add mental unstability. Eureka!, you get a marvel character.

Even his tagline, “power of million exploding suns” is a jab on Superman's power

source and his emblem is a poor kryptonian's shield.

1.

Song tells the story of a man who time travels into the future, and sees

the apocalypse. In the process of returning to the present, he is turned

into steel by a magnetic field.

He is rendered mute, unable verbally to warn people of his time in the

future and of the impending destruction. His attempts to communicate

are ignored and mocked. This causes him to become angry, and drives

his revenge on mankind, causing the destruction seen in his vision.

Page 102: Inter-Departmental Finals

2.

Narrator was very tired of his relationship, as he was in it for a very long

period of time. So, narrator wanted to venture beyond his marriage,

after seeing an ad in the newspaper put by a woman to approach her, if

the suitor matches given criteria.

Narrator began communicating with the woman. They later decided to

meet each other in a bar called O'Malley's. When narrator meets the

woman, he recognizes that woman is his wife.

He later learns/accepts, the fact he shares similar interests with his

wife, that's the reason they got together for the first time and given a

second chance, he again chooses his wife.

Page 103: Inter-Departmental Finals

3.

The song is a salute to high school football and focuses on a junior varsity football

player (who rarely, if ever sees action in varsity games) and his father, a blind man

who sits next to the press box – where the speaker is located. The father longs to hear

his son's name be announced.

Later scene shifts to the final night of the regular season and the regular fans puzzled

at why the boy's father didn't show up for the game. At halftime, with several players

injured, the boy takes an emergency phone call and is late to the field. The coach,

unaware of what's going on, begins to scold the boy but the boy insists that he's going

in on the next play. He does, takes the pitch on the first play and immediately runs for

a touchdown.

Post-match the boy becomes emotional and – when asked to explain why he played

so well – reveals that his father had died earlier in the evening (why he wasn't at the

game), thus presumably can see him play.

Page 104: Inter-Departmental Finals

4.Robert's just about to start shooting. He is hanging around with a shifty

look and a revolver and no one suspects a thing.

He's probably going to shoot everyone, but still tells everyone to run, as

his dad father is bringing home surprises. Dinner is all cold, since he is

waiting for a long time.

Classical composers who have utilized it in their music are: Paganini, Berlioz,

Mozart, Liszt, Respeghi, Britten, Saint-Saenz, Tchaikovsky, and Rachmaninov.

Ligne claire (French for "clear line") is a style of drawing pioneered by X. It uses

clear strong lines of uniform importance. Artists working in it do not use

hatching, while contrast is downplayed as well. Cast shadows are often

illuminated while a uniformity of line is used throughout, paying equal attention

to every element depicted. Additionally, the style often features strong colours

and a combination of cartoonish characters against a realistic background. All

these elements together can result in giving strips drawn this way a flat aspect.

"Dies Irae" (Day of Wrath) is a Latin hymn attributed to either Thomas of

Celano of the Franciscan Order (1200 – c. 1265) or to Latino Malabranca

Orsini (1294), lector at the Dominican studium at Santa Sabina, the

forerunner of the Pontifical University of Saint Thomas Aquinas, Angelicum

in Rome. The hymn dates from at least the thirteenth century, though it is

possible that it is much older, with some sources ascribing its origin to St.

Gregory the Great (d. 604), St. Bernard of Clairvaux (1090-1153), or St.

Bonaventure (1221-1274).
