I fully agree—Spike Lee's use of close-ups and dynamic angles heightens the film's suspense and emotions. The way he immerses us in the characters' lives heightens the impact of the story. Great observation!

Your analysis of the extreme close-ups is accurate! Those shots made the emotions in the monologues inevitable, as if the listener was immediately confronted with the characters' agony. It's an extremely effective technique to amplify the film's message about structural unfairness.

Good observation about how the ad prioritizes weight loss over overall health. It highlights how advertising can oversimplify complex health issues to appeal to emotions, sometimes at the expense of balanced messaging.

Interesting how collaborations like this target Gen Z so effectively. It’s a good example of how celebrity endorsements can shape brand identity and appeal to specific demographics.

Good point about the influence of celebrity branding. It’s interesting how their connection to fans helps build trust and loyalty for the product.

Excellent point regarding the misleading claims. It demonstrates how advertisers frequently use pseudoscience to influence viewers. This connects to media literacy—critical thinking allows us to investigate these exaggerated claims rather than accepting them at face value.

I think people just see ai as the easy way out, even though the work produced can be subpar at best at times

The original will always be the best

Its quite interesting how many teens these days would often be distracted by large influencers instead of creating their own thoughts, which in large part can be seen as a part of media literacy.

I think this has a large part in media literacy, as people, especially teens, need to learn how to disseminate the truth and hearsay as well as create their own opinions on topics instead of just joining the crowd.
