CREATED BY MIKE HELLMAN

WHAT MAKES A FILMIMPACT MODERN SOCIETY?A MOVIE MAKES A CULTURAL IMPACT WHEN IT TALKS ABOUT HISTORICAL HAPPENINGS. ALSO, FILMS MAY HAVE KNOWLEDGE AND RESOURCED RESEARCH THAT PEOPLE CAN USE FOR SCHOOL OR WORK.

HOWEVER, IN HISTORICAL FILMS, SOME INFORMATION MAY NOT BE FACTUAL.

MOVIES PORTRAY REALITY AS REALITY PORTRAYS MOVIES. THE WORLD ITSELF IS ONE GIANT STAGE, AND LIKE ACTORS AND ACTRESSES, WE SHOULD BE HAPPY AS ROLE MODELS FOR THE WORLD.

STAR WARS known as one of the most cultural impacts on society. Being the first science fiction/fantasy film to be the most successful and awe inspiring film. Many science fiction films such as the iconic Alien franchise have drawn heavy influence from the series. As of today, it has changed filmmaking forever. The movies today now contain much less deeper narrative structures and have transitioned into all out, special effect ballistic blockbusters. Star Wars also had a huge financial impact on Fox with $1.2 million a day for the studio. Star Wars

also sits in the U.S. National Film Registry preservation as being “iconically, historically, or aesthetically significant”, and The Empire Strikes Back was then selected to be stored in the registry. The franchise has s since then spawned

collections of toys, models, fan films and much, much more.

New films have also been recently released to keep the franchise

alive.

CONCLUSION

Film isn’t just a source of entertainment for people, it has played a huge role in society in many different ways that most people do not realize when watching them. Movies have been inspirations for all aspects of life outside of their fictional realms.
