The Volcano is a transformative film about a man who is diagnosed with a terminal disease. This prompts an introspective journey along with several interesting characters that help Joe develop throughout the plot. The humorous spin on Joe's attitude throughout the film while he meets wacky characters keeps the film lighthearted and bouncy in tone. ]]> 2017-11-14 15:17:19 UTC https://padlet.com/reese_pierce/biexr295cw7i/wish/206762138 Joe Versus The Volcano, A movie full of a volcano that erupts, and Joe.

Joe stands on the cliff staring at the volcano’s erupting molten lava with the love of his life beside him. Chills run down your spine as you wonder what Joe would decide between jumping to his death or returning to his newly beloved wife. This one of a kind fairy tale takes you through a rollercoaster of emotions with the journey of the characters. Along with the suspense of plot, Joe Versus The Volcano represents several life lessons that should be acknowledged throughout life.]]> 2017-11-14 15:21:54 UTC https://padlet.com/reese_pierce/biexr295cw7i/wish/206765774 https://padlet.com/reese_pierce/biexr295cw7i/wish/206766077 Once upon a time in the 90s the movie Joe Vs the Volcano came out. The movie is very slow at the beginning which might've bored the reviewers, but at the same time caught their attention. It starts off with a melancholy vibe, because of the music and the lack of color. The director chose a scheme that shows how everyone is living the same day to day and nothing special is going on.  The very long intro made me wanna rip my head off. It lacked action and enthusiasm. The characters seemed very off and weird, which made me wonder if it was worth watching, but let's not jump to conclusions.

In actuality, it was a cryptic story with hardly any character development, for the females and Joe himself, and few fantastical elements. The few fantastical elements it did have included the poorly conceived idea of natives that drink orange soda. Even Fanta didn't want to sponsor this movie that was doomed for failure.]]> 2017-11-14 15:27:00 UTC https://padlet.com/reese_pierce/biexr295cw7i/wish/206769843 carolineb09 https://padlet.com/reese_pierce/biexr295cw7i/wish/206785637 Imagine working your whole life in a dim factory with a job you hate, your boss is unbearable, every time you walk in the building you get a headache, to make matters worse you find out you have 6 months to live.

Joe Banks portrays himself as an average Joe in the beginning until he is given the opportunity to be a hero in death. Throughout the rest of the movie Joe tries to be seen as a hero who cares about everyone except himself. The director successfully takes on multiple themes by using cinematography, music choices, and of course, casting performances.

Blank, in this case, is defined as empty, boring or simply uninspired. Some other examples of being blank are: an empty sheet of paper, the mind of the kid drooling in the back of class, and Joe versus the volcano. Focusing on the last one, Joe versus The Volcano is a story (I think), about a guy named Joe, and a volcano that erupts. That's all that you need to remember about it. There is more to this plot, but honestly it was so dull that I didn't remember it. The characters were one of the few things that this movie did right, but only on Joe. The rest of the characters were unmemorable

Joe Banks like any generic tragic hero, discovers he has 6 months to live,  and decides to become a hero when he accepted the offer to jump inside a Volcano. This 90s romantic comedy  takes you through Joe's journey to make life purposeful and the  unusual characters he interacts with.
The movie as a romantic comedy ]]> 2017-11-15 15:19:09 UTC https://padlet.com/reese_pierce/biexr295cw7i/wish/207239104 revised version https://padlet.com/reese_pierce/biexr295cw7i/wish/207239197 Joe jumps into the volcano and the whole time the audience is on the edge of their seat wondering what is going to happen next. The thrilling movie, Joe Vs. the Volcano, includes many different genres like comedy, romance, and action/adventure. All while teaching the theme of going out and living life.
The movie starts off with a melancholy vibe, which causes it to have a very slow start. The slow music and the lack of color made me feel as if i were part of the characters lives. The director chose a scheme that shows how everyone is living the same day to day lives and nothing special is going on. The characters are the main ones that use this scheme, by showing their lack of action and enthusiasm. This made me wonder if it was worth watching, but let's not jump to conclusions.  ]]> 2017-11-15 15:19:18 UTC https://padlet.com/reese_pierce/biexr295cw7i/wish/207239197 Paragraph 2 https://padlet.com/reese_pierce/biexr295cw7i/wish/207240000 The stars of the film Joe vs. the Volcano are Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan. Their roles include  Tom Hanks as Joe Banks and Meg Ryan as not one but three characters named DeDe, Angelica, and Patricia. Character progression is relatively slow considering the time period in which the film was produced. Certain aspects of the film seem rushed, such as Joe's romantic interest in Patricia. The quick development makes the romance inorganic and distracting. Though the film has a fantastic cast and great dialogue the resolution is less that stellar with its rushed action sequence and abrupt stop. ]]> 2017-11-15 15:20:30 UTC https://padlet.com/reese_pierce/biexr295cw7i/wish/207240000 timnzwe8719 https://padlet.com/reese_pierce/biexr295cw7i/wish/207241527 From what I can remember the movie was all about Joe, a guy who has an awful job. It goes through showing how awful that job is, then it changes by having him have only six months to live. He then goes out and quits his job. This is where the plot goes from being somewhat interesting to downright ridiculous. After he quits his job, he fails at romance with a very empty character. Then the next day he gets a job offer to go jump into a volcano after twenty days of living in luxury. The rest of the movie is him shopping, sailing, or on an island. The movie try's to stick with fairytale themes that were well distracting. In the film they seemed to be short on female actors as Meg Ryan played all three of the important females in the film. Where she somehow managed to fail at all three. The only thing the movie did well concerning characters was there development for certain characters, such as Joe. Who for example progressed from a jerk at the start of the movie to a well caring person who puts others before himself]]> 2017-11-15 15:22:47 UTC https://padlet.com/reese_pierce/biexr295cw7i/wish/207241527 https://padlet.com/reese_pierce/biexr295cw7i/wish/207245428 With dim lighting and cool coloring, the cinematographer takes the movie to the next level by having the lighting add progression to the movie. At the beginning of the film the lighting starts out very dark and dim while adding the effect of cool tones. This occurs mostly while Joe is in his office with beige walls and fluorescent lightings, creating a worn down work space that even a conscious rat wouldn't go into. As the movie goes on, the scenes get lighter, leading up to the climax at the volcano where the warmer tone sets a heartfelt mood.

At the start of the movie, a reoccurring sign has become visible at the significant scenes which urges the audience to stay on the edge of their seats. The different symbols developed the movie further about the lessons of the fairy tale. Additionally, the morals of the movie expands towards several all age demographic.
