Alvarado would be the four categories of Pity, Humour, Dangerous and Exotic and this can be different representations.
Fanon would be putting on a "white mask"
Said would be the means of West vs East but west will always be superior.
2) Watch the opening of Yasmin (2004) again. Does it offer a positive or negative view of British Muslims? To what extent does it reinforce or challenge Edward Said's theory of Orientalism - that the west is superior to the exotic or uncivilised east?
In Yasmin it shown positives and negatives in the film as for example it would show the boy who is reading the Quran showing traditional values. However you would see the negative as to the woman not wearing her hijab with the man and she was at a pub where you see that men are staring at her for the way she is. Also for the belief when she orders the juice the man stares. Another negative view which reinforces Edward Said theory is the fact of the police was asking questions and telling her come out her vehicle as to her not making no problems. A moment where it is shown to be reinforced would be the boy having the peanut butter and is shown to be western cultured and it is shown very different to all the others as to showing no tradition at all. This was shown exotic by the old man and the Islam community still being shown.
3) Finally, choose THREE clips for EACH of the theorists and explain how you could apply that theory to the clip. Pick a selection of clips on YouTube from TV, film, music video or advertising and embed them in your blog before writing your analysis under each clip. Note: this means you need NINE clips in total on this blogpost.
Alvarado
Get Hard- They use humour of Kevin Hart as the representation and you also see the pity as to Will Ferrel is paying him to teach how to 'Get hard' this would be an good example as for the two comedians and representation of the stereotype of Black people in prison.
Blade- This would show the dangerous representation as to swords and violence is being shown in this clip. It is represented dangerous as to death at the end of it. This is shown the violent part as to also showing the pity of both representation as to the characters fighting for their life and its good vs bad.
Get Rich or Die Tryin- This would be another example of dangerous representation and it would mean that Alvarado theory would be correct as to the four categories made as to Dangerous stereotype and it would show as to the guns being raised at people.
Fanon
Djando unchagined- is shown as Samuel L Jackson showing hes putting on the 'White mask'As the movie is shown against black people Samuel Jackson is also shown Racist against black people and acts like he has the same power of Leonardo Dicaprio.
Norbit- This represent decivilize in the clip, this would show by the two pimps checking up on girls and having the stereotype of a black men.
Samuel L Jackson. We all don't look alike- This clip shows the essentialize as to the line 'We all look same' as to the reporter makes the mistake of another actor and Samuel L Jackson having ago about that.
Said
Four lions- This represents West vs East as to Four Lions tells the story of a group of British jihadists who push their abstract dreams of glory to the breaking point.
Iron man- This exactly reinforces the theory as to West vs East as to iron man stopping the people from being killed by eastern people and would represent them as to terrorists.
Team America : World Police- West vs East representation is shown here as to an american puppet is walking next to islamic people and it would show the conflict between them comedically.
