In many ways the humor crosses many lines and pokes fun at Arabs. The story revolves around real life issues, such as nuclear weaponry.

This film represents the cannabis plant as an evil thing that ruins teen lives, when we all know that this is completely false. This film was created to try and influence people not to use marijuana by showing these negative stereotypes of people that use it, which are also completely false. https://www.metacritic.com/movie/reefer-madness

The government is very propagandistic and uses the characters, especially Katniss, to influence the people and send them a message. The marketing for the second film, Mockingjay, was deliberated made to resemble propaganda.

This is a portrayal of entertainment propaganda by not accurately depicting life in prison. The way this TV series shows the prisoners and their daily lives is an inaccurate depiction due to a lot of things. One of the main things is the way the prison officials treat the inmates particularly Caputo giving Taystee gifts is a fabrication. If this were to happen in a real prison it would be considered contraband and the official would be punished for breaking prison rules. ]]> 2019-04-18 16:41:35 UTC https://padlet.com/hobbs/entertainment_propaganda/wish/352609488 nrichardson1224 https://padlet.com/hobbs/entertainment_propaganda/wish/352771128 Detroit takes place during the Detroit riots in 1967 where a group of racist police officers go to a house they expect has a shooter in it and look to get revenge on the black people in the building instead of justice.  The film is showing the horrors of police brutality and racism in America.  Even though it is a true story from 1967, it is still very relevant today with the issues of police brutality and movements such as Black Lives Matter.

When it came out there were very high tensions with North Korea and it angered the North Korean Government to the point where they were ready to attack us. Another reason is that it depicts Kim Jong Un in a very satirical way, which is how most people around the world view him.

The movie depicts Seal Team Six of the U.S. Navy Seals, and their manhunt for Osama Bin Laden. Grossing over 130 Million at the box office, I'd say this piece of propaganda was a moderate  success to say the least. ]]> 2019-04-20 00:48:58 UTC https://padlet.com/hobbs/entertainment_propaganda/wish/352822438 katerina_irwin https://padlet.com/hobbs/entertainment_propaganda/wish/352824136 This film created in 1997, follows the starting romance of a Jewish man named Roberto and a woman named Dora in Europe before the Start of Hitlers rein as Dictator in Germany. Years down the road Roberto "Guido" and Dora have a five year old son Joshua. It is 1945 towards the end of the war when Fascist in Italy round up all the Jews in town and ship them to death camps. Guido and Joshua are separated from Dora. Guido tries his best to hide the violence and shield his son being taken at the camp. While the movie highlights Nazi Propaganda and Fascism, the big picture is how Guido portray's the spirit of positivity and humanity to his son while in the camps to shield him from the horrors that are surrounding them.

They turn feminism into jades that cannot defend for themselves. The film always has the women the first to die. Cracked.com quoted "As one might expect, not everybody was on board with the tremendous changes in gender equality happening in America in the '60s and '70s -- unlike today, when absolutely everyone is on board, everywhere. This general aversion to progress manifested itself in many ways, from electing more conservative politicians, to pushing for a return to "family values" ... to ass-kicking, gore-filled slasher flicks like Friday The 13th," (Breeding).
