Introduction

What Is Media Studies For?
              In my opinion, media studies almost explains itself in what it's for; the studying of different types of media around us, how they work and how they can be used (for a variety of things). Media studies, as a topic, is growing more and more relevant to us due to the increase in forms of media through technological advancements. I believe that from this, it is growing ever more important to know just exactly what is going on around you. Media is everywhere and media studies is here to help us understand purpose of it, how to interpret it and how to use it.

My Favourite Film
           I have seen far too many films to be able to specifically pick my "favourite" film. However the one film that I think i've enjoyed the most and also returned to fairly frequently, is the one and only, "You Don't Mess With The Zohan" additionally, this contains my 4th favourite actor, Adam Sandler, my first being Robert Downey Jr, second is Brad Pitt and third is Chris Pratt. But Adam Sandler is still brilliant in this film. However, my favourite genre of film would be mainly sci-fi/fantasy but comedies are still very enjoyable. The reason I enjoy sci-fi/fantasy films is because I simply like fantasy type stuff. Plus science has always been a huge interest of mine which is exactly what sci-fi orients around which is also probably a contributing factor as to why I enjoy them so much.
