Representation theories of Deadpool


One of the representation theory that Deadpool includes is Perkins theory. A stereotypes that can be positive or partly true.
  • Specifically, she stated that stereotypes are...
  • Not always negative - Colossus. He is one of the Helpers that helps Deadpool defeat the villains. He is seen as being muscular Russian.
  • Not always about the less powerful (Politicians are corrupt)
  • Can be about our own social groups-Negasonic Teenage Warhead. She is one of the helpers. Young people are extremely into social media. This is because the Internet allows them to connect to other people with the same interest. This part is seen at 2:16
  • Not always false- The superhero Deadpool finds the princess Copycat at the end to be reunited again. This is not in the trailer but is in the ending of the movie. We see this in most superhero movies as the audience expects a happy ending in all films.
  • Can change over time- We see women in both hero and villain roles. Before we only saw woman in a support role and rarely as a hero.  As time past, women slowly started getting roles that mattered. In this movie, we see Gina Carano acting as Angel Dust as the villain. We don't see that many women in theses roles being violent as we stereotype them acting in nurturing roles.
Another representative could be Mulvey: the male gaze theory. As the main character is a male, it could be promoting male power and always saving the princess. Most or nearly all superhero movie have a male hero. They rarely show women saving the world or helping a male character as they don't want to show women in power. However, lately, women have started getting main roles in blockbuster movies that have millions of dollar put into them. One movie is Wonder Woman that had a budget of $120 million and will be released in 2017. The movie is estimated to make over $1 billion. This shows us that women can be the hero of a movie and be a role model to other aspiring female actresses.

By using darker colours , it make the audience feel that something is hidden to create mystery . It can also show the he is negative because black is linked with his mood.  You could say the black absorbs light and say he is learning from mistakes or that 50 cent doesn't emitted anything so he keep a lot of thing to himself. Using a simple black and white colour scheme make the consumer think more about his life and how simple it was when he was a child.  The close up show us that he is being personal. In addition, the font used is a typewrite to show what he learnt before technology.  Furthermore, fingerprint can show us that he has done a lot of crime in his time to become who he is now. The words "i am" is with 50 cent side and "what i am" to show that he did the crime to become who he is now.  The line in the middle could suggest that there is a good and bad side to him but can also show that he is no longer connect with crime. 50 cent is looking

Presentation LR

My own power point, www: I had a handout that had good information that could intrigued the audience. It allowed the audience to have something to take from the presentation so they can use it when revising.  The starter involved the audience when so that the lesson started in a good mood and where more interested afterwards. I spoke about what they own and what they use their money on so that the audience knows how the company became more powerful. EBI I could of asked question to the audience so they could interacted with me and i could of made sure that the lesson was meaningful. This make sure that they take something away from the lesson.  explain the slide more so that the audience knew everything on screen. have a better ending so that the audience could of had a overall coclusion to finish the lesson.
