The movie Gravity is a thrilling must-see movie of the year. He talks about how everything perfect and is a little bias.

he doesn't critsize the performance. and uses vague adjectives like "Jaw-Dropping".

although he compares it to his personal life, he uses accurate facts. his facts that he uses are specific and detailed.

he combines facts and reactions. i dont like how he brags about the actress\actors and says the movie wouldn't be half good without them.

it took 4 years to make this movie and he said it was worth the wait. he says George Clooney is the perfect actor for this movie.

The Russians demolished and obsolete satelite which is sending fragments, shards flying through the air.

Bansky

The film we watched is based on Banksy and Thierry and their street art.

I believe this film can be shown as journalism.

This is journalism because he has interviews about his art and all of his films can be also recognized as journalism.

Banksy could also show that this is journalism because the documentary was based on him telling and asking his opinion about Thierry's work.

Journalism is the profession of writing something. this can be seen as writing because Thierry shows films of him doing street art and recording all of his spots and art work in progress.

I also think some of Thierry's art work wasn't all of his. some of the art work i saw looks like i've seen it before.

To me journalism means a professional piece of writing or something that is written that can be proved by accurate facts and notes. it must also have some quotes or and interview would count to.

Banksy is a journalist because he is telling a story about how Thierry was just a street artist and turn into to something more because Banksy gave him some advice.

The part of the documentary i liked the most was when he painted the elephant.

The Falling Man

The video clip we watched was horrifying. On September 11, 2001 The World Trade center was crashed by a plane on a normal day.

The first plane hit the northern side of the building. As soon as the plane hit it exploded and made a lot of smoke and people could not breathe and were scared for there life because the smoke was toxic and it was really hot in the building.

About 30 minutes later a second plane hit. the second plane kind of hit the lower north side of the building. When the second plane hit people really knew now that this was no accident.

There was so much smoke that people tried hanging off of the building so that they would have some oxygen to breathe in instead of disgusting smoke.

People were so desperate that they jumped out of the 110 story tall building but they obviously knew they werent going to survive that jump.

if i were in this situation i wouldnt have known what to do either. i would not have had the guts to jump of a 110 story building or even hang off of it to get oxygen because i am so afraid of heights.

i believe that the people who were in the building were really scared for their lives and i would be to. but the people jumping out of the buildings are really brave and bold people.
