Block III Media Literacy
Megan and I have been trying to focus out Media Literacy Project even further, but we are realizing that we are having a difficult time doing this. We are setting time aside towards the end of the week to specifically work on this and get a good portion done. Currently, Megan and I want to compare Remakes and Originals of movies/TV shows. For example, Charlie's Angels and The Dukes of Hazzard. We will focus on why the remakes were made, how they are different/why they are different, the violence that was changed and why it would be changed, sex appeal between modern day and the original makes, and why the sex appeal is different, which version the audience seems to prefer and why, etc. So, that is where we are heading.

Hey, that's a great idea of how to use the media literacy project. The first idea that popped into my mind was The Brady Bunch--the television show turned into the movie. The more recent movie even, in a way, made fun of the earlier one with how they portrayed the "perfect American family." I like your idea though; I'll definitely have to keep it in mind for the future...
I like THE BRADY BUNCH suggestion. Thanks Jami. Whatever you focus on women, be sure you narrow that focus.
