Blade Runner

1. What do you think the film is about and what might the story line be?  This film may be about a man fighting for survival as the he may have something that everyone wants.

2. What genre do you think this film belongs to? I think that this films falls under the genre of action because there is a man holding a gun. This film could also be sci-fi because of the futuristic looking building.  

3. Who do you think is the target audience? I think this film is targeted 80% male and 20% female. This is because the genres of sci-fi and action portrayed on the poster mainly appeal to the male audience. 



Scary Movie 2

1. What do you think the film is about and what might the story line be? I think this movie could be about a group of friends in a haunted cinema running away from a serial killer. This film revolves around the killer and how he kills his victims. 


2. What genre do you think this film belongs to? I think this film is a thriller because of the title being a 'Scary movie'. Also by the 7 characters seen on the poster not looking too serious, it can suggest that it can be under comedy too.

3. Who do you think is the target audience? I think this film is targeted equally between male and female but aimed towards the older audience being 18-30 years old. This is because the women on the poster could hint the film not being appropriate for children.

Uzak

1. What do you think the film is about and what might the story line be? This film could be about a young man that is released form prison and now has to deal with people who have held grudges against him. 

2. What genre do you think this film belongs to? This film definitely falls under the genre of mystery because on the poster there is a figure looking at something that the audience cant tell. Furthermore, there are little clues on the poster as the title, 'Uzak' doesn't give any clues nor does the image. This film could also be a thriller because the figure on the poster looks sinister. Also, the background of the city and the pollution in the sky could also show that there's something more to find out. 

3. Who do you think is the target audience? I think that the target audience for this film is equally both male and female as the genre of mystery appeals to both genders. But the film is mainly aimed towards people between 16-30 years old because the mystery doesn't really appeal to the younger ages.

In the hole, its where his fears lurk. In order to get out he need to face his fears and not be scared. The contrast between the blue sky and the dark hole he is looking into suggests that what he is looking at is not good at all.

2. What genre do you think this film belongs to? I think this film is a horror. This is because the title suggests that there will be something scary. Also, the concerned expression on the boy's face suggests that its a horror too. 

3. Who do you think is the target audience? The target audience for this film are 60%male and 40% female. This is because horror films appeal slightly more to males than women. This film is also aimed particularly to the age group 18+.  

Sin City

2.      What genre(s) do you think this film belongs to? I think that this film is an action thriller. This is because majority of the characters shown are holding guns. And the hint of the film being a thriller comes from colour scheme of the poster being monochrom colours. However, the title is in blood red showing how there will be blood shed which further shows the film is an action.

3.      Who do you think is the target audince? I think that the target audience is 70% male and 30% female. This is because the genres of action and thriller mainly appeal to the male gender. This film is also probably aimed towards people who are between 16-30 years old because of the image seems to appeal to the more modern viewers.

This turns out to be a struggle for them because the bride’s parents don’t approve of the groom because of their social prejudices.

Million Dollar Baby

1.      

What do you think the film is about and what might the storyline be? I think this film is about a girl who had been growing up in an orphanage and was adopted by a kick-boxing coach. In the story, it shows her growth in the ultimate fighting league. She gets better and better and ends up to be the number 1 in the world. I assumed that the plot would be something with sports because the woman’s attire seems to be something an athlete would wear. (hair tied back and a vest)

2.      What genre(s) do you think this film belongs to? I think that this film is a sports as well as a drama. This is because the facial expressions on the faces of the characters shown seem to be gloomy which made me assume that this film could be a drama.

3.       i Who do you think is the target audince? I think that this film is 60% male and 40% female. This is because even if its sports with the sub-genre of drama, it appeals to women. I assume that the protagonist is the woman because the other two characters on the poster are looking in her direction and by the protagonist being a woman, it appeals to the women. This film is aimed to 12+ because some scences in this film could be violent as im assuming she is a kick-boxer.
