How does violence, sex and drugs in movies affect us? Violence, sex and drugs is something that exists in several movies. Many people do not mind it but the images research shows that it has a huge impact on society, especially on the younger generation. Can violent movies make a person more aggressive? Studies have found that the individual reaction of the person depends on how aggressive they were to begin with. Therefore if a person has an abrasive personality to start with, watching violent movies can affect the person causing them to become more aggressive, a study shows. One example of a movie containing a lot of violent content is “Rambo” 2008. Movies for young children have become more violent in recent years while children are increasing amounts of time watching movies. Studies have shown that teens are more likely to get affected by sexual content in films. Researches and scientists from the University of Missouri questioned over 1,200 kids between the ages of 12 and 14 about how many movies containing sexual content they have watched and followed up, years later, with the participants about their sexual behavior. The results – the study showed that the teenagers and young adults who had been exposed to the most sexual content in movies had become sexually active at younger ages and they were more likely to engage in risky sexual behavior – such as not using condoms or having multiple sexual partners. A recently popular movie is “Fifty Shades of Grey” and the movie has been said glorifying sexual assault. Most of the recent films does not portray safe sex. Young teenagers watching these movies can get an unrealistic portrait of how sex should be and how they

Many TV Shows and movies portray drug use and alcohol as a normal part of young adult life and necessary in order to fit in and be cool. Teenage substance abuse often starts as early as age 14, according to a 2012 survey. It is believed that celebrities and pop culture play a significant role in the teens’ life and the development of drug and alcohol use. Many television shows are aimed at younger viewers, such as teens and young adults. Many celebrities are engaging in illicit activities and posting stories and photos online. Teenagers are copying this behavior and sees it as a normal, everyday activity. In the movies and TV Shows, the drugs and alcohol are glamorized and seen as something fun. However, in real life abusing these substances is dangerous and affects your health. Studies show that alcohol and drug abuse during teenage years can permanently alter brain function. Marijuana, one of the most common drugs amongst teenagers, has been shown to cause lowered I.Q.’s in thirty-year-old adults. It also affects short-term memory and concentration levels. Statistics also show that kids on drugs do not perform as well in extra-curricular activities and do poorly in school. This can determine what college they will attend as poor grades will prevent acceptance or scholarships thus preventing them from getting the job they want. This is however not often shown in the movies.

The most expensive movies ever produced So, which movies are the most expensive ever made? Blockbusters are the most expensive productions today, with budgets ranging from $100 million and upwards. Many of the most famous blockbusters we have seen, has been movies with outstanding sales and ratings, like “Star Wars” or “Jaws”, which had a total revenue of $471 million. However, what does “a blockbuster” mean today and can only high-budget movies be called blockbuster movies?
As mentioned, a blockbuster today is a movie with a high budget and is highly marketed. The history behind the word begun back in 1975 with the movie “Jaws” that set new box-office records. It was called a blockbuster because of how much revenue the movie generated. The term and its meaning later became something that other film companies tried to achieve with their own movies. However, movies like “Godzilla”, which had a huge budget and was heavily marketed, was a box-office disaster. It was, however, still called a blockbuster. To make a blockbuster movie today, a huge budget is required. Why? Action movies for example, contain slow-motion sequences, explosions (can be both visual and auditory (sounds)) and futuristic technology just to mention a few factor. Experts then create these sequences and they are using very expensive equipment and computers. It is also typical for mo-
05
dern blockbusters to have very high-profile actors in them, and they cost a lot. All these costs build up; therefore, the budget has to be high. Movies that have many of these criteria and that are well made are in today’s meaning blockbuster movies.
A couple of recent blockbusters are “Passengers” and “Suicide Squad”. “Passengers” had high-profile actors such as Jennifer Lawrence and Chris Pratt; it also contained many special effects because it was a sci-fi movie. “Suicide Squad” had Margot Robbie and Will Smith in the cast, two very high-profile actors. It is, compared to “Passengers”, an action movie and not sci-fi, but it still uses as much, or even more, special effects as “Passengers”. Looking at the box-office data on “Suicide Squad”, it actually did well. The conclusion from that is that a blockbuster, in the modern era, actually can be a real blockbuster in the old sense of the word. “Passengers” can compare in some degree to “Godzilla”, a huge budget but not much in revenue. A low budget movie can also be a blockbuster. A blockbuster movie was after all back in the day a movie that created a lot of revenue and broke box-office records. The original “Star Trek” movies and series were low budget productions, and they became one of the biggest sci-fi titles throughout history. That was the kind of production that became called blockbusters, productions that people watch thirty years after release date and still find very entertaining. Both the editorial staff and I agree that a movie does not need to have those sky-high budgets to be called a blockbuster. For us, a blockbuster is simply a good movie or series, no matter the production costs, budget or A-list actors. It is like a car, you will not necessarily have more fun in an expensive car than a cheaper one, it all comes down to personal preferences, just like with movies.

Batman vs superman.
The title of the movie can already tell us a lot of the movie’s plot. You could read it as “Batman vs Superman” and you could also read it as “the dark knight vs man of steel”. By the time, the two superheroes are fighting, a new threat rises and destroys everything in the city. The two superheroes must now work together to defeat it to save all the people The rating on this movie is about 6,7 stars out of 10. The movie is not classified as high as it should, but on the other hand, it has many viewers and to a big part of the viewers did not even rate the movie so that is a problem.

After playing many rolls in roles in teen-oriented movies, he had his first handful of great collaborations with Tim Burton. He played the title role of the iconic Edward Scissorhands in 1990. After the success of the film, he had developed a somewhat dark, idiosyncratic persona for himself and constantly selected roles that surprised critics and audiences alike. After that he kept on raking many memorable roles in movies, such as lead role of Ed Wood (1994). He played the role of an undercover FBI agent in the movie Donnie Brasco (1997), and in 1999 he was in the science-fiction/horror movie The Astronaut’s Wife and in the same year he played the role of Ichabod Crane in the movie Sleepy Hollow. Some of his other memorable characters are Fred Abberline in From Hell (2001). He stole the show from Antonio Banderas in the finale of Robert Rodriguez’s “Mariachi” trilogy. Once Upon a Time in Mexico (2003). The fantastic and marvelous Pirates of the Caribbean (2003). He played the central character of the Stephen King-based movie. Secret Window (2004). He played in the movie adaptation of Roald Dahl’s novel, Charlie and the chocolate factory (2005). And later in Alice in Wonderland (2010) and Dark Shadows (2012). Depp’s life started to lose control as he dabbled with drugs and went into a deep depression. Around the same time he started a destructive relationship with Kate Moss. Depp has also dated several female celebrities, he had been engaged to Sherlyn Fenn, Jennifer Grey, Kate Moss and Winona Ryder. He was also married to Lori Anne Allison in 1983 as it was mentioned earlier, but divorced her in 1985. Johnny Depp has two children with French singer and actress Vanessa Paradis. A daughter and a son named Lily-Rose Melody born in 1999 and Jack, born in 2002. He then married actress and producer Amber heard in 2015 but then divorced her as well in 2017. Johnny Depp is just such a charismatic and unique actor with his own special style, and I think that’s what makes him the best.
