I have never seen or heard of the Jennifer's Body, but I can relate to it because I have seen the iconic movie Mean Girls. I think that the storyline that Lola explained in her blog post was very intriguing. The idea of a typical high school mean girl is everything that Jennifer embodies, and the idea of a a high school mean girl is still relevant to many of us because we are not even a year out of high school. When reading Lola’s blog post I’m sure that every one of us had that particular girl come into our minds that reminds us slightly of Jennifer. The movie is such a relatable movie especially for our ages. I found it interesting that Lola talked about the benign violation theory because Jennifer seemed to not always have a filter on what she was saying. The benign violation theory is all about not coming off too offensive, but still taking a dig at someone, and with Jennifer's comment to Chip she definitely accomplished that. The extra aspect of Jennifer’s Body that diff...

I had not watched Superbad until this past summer, and my life is forever changed. The cringe factor is real, and it is something that everyone can relate to. All individuals want to be viewed as the “cool kids” in the eyes of the popular kids, and sometimes it just does not work out. For Seth and Evan they definitely struggled with being accepted the cool kids, but they made a hilarious effort in doing so. I have two favorite parts of the movie, and my two favorite parts coincide with the two scenes that Faith discussed. First, the scene where Fogell, a hilarious misfit, purchases a fact ID.

Fogell could have easily he was twenty-one, but his explanation was somewhere along the times of, “how many twenty-one year olds do you think live in this town.” This scene leaves the audience bellowing out with laughter because of the complete incongruity, and the innocent thought proce...

Luckily I did not miss out during my childhood because I loved watch Tom and Jerry with my older brother. It was honestly one of the only times that my brother and I got along. Anyways, I always loved when Tom and Jerry was on because it was so different from what I was use to watching. I was a typical young girl and lived for watching the Disney channel, but I would stop everything to watch Tom and Jerry . I always found it intriguing that young kids could understand what was occurring throughout each short episode due to the fact there was no sound. I believe that the reason it was so captivating to all ages was because of the incongruity that happened during the show. There was never a time where Tom and Jerry were not scheming to take down the other. There was constant mischief between them, and it allowed for young children to find humor in the show despite the fact that there was no sound. I particularly like the scene that Tyler chose to focus on. I personally do not remember th...
