Daily Writing Topic: Movie For Class
Write about a movie that you think would be a good one for this whole class to watch in the near future. It can't be 'R' rated. We're looking for a balanced movie that will appeal to a varied audience, not just what you personally want to watch. It should be a movie that would make a good Daily Writing Topic after everyone has watched it; a movie that develops an issue or issues that many people in the class would have something to say about would be good (Forrest Gump or Friday Night Lights?), or a movie that students can compare to their own experience (The Sandlot or Napolean Dynamite?); or a movie that introduces an idea or experience that students might not give much thought to without watching the movie (Minority Report or Pay It Forward or K-Pax? ) -- some kind of writing "hook." Give enough information so that someone who has never seen the movie will have an idea what kind of movie it is and what it's about and why they might or might not like it. A good place to browse movies, or to find out basic information about a movie you're thinking of, is the Internet Movie Data Base. If you really want your movie to be considered, you must post your suggestion here. Also, feel free to add comments about other classmates' nominations. Dwillia may pick the movie that is best presented for writing possibilities, but also considering follow up comments both for and against. If very few people share their suggestions here, or if the suggestions don't show much thought or enthusiasm, it will be assumed there isn't much interest in taking time out to watch a movie as a class.

Class Movie…
I think that a good movie for the class to watch is SAW. I think that this movie requires everyone to pay attention closely and that it is a thinker. I like movies where it makes your brain work and it all ties together in the end and makes you go.. ooooo. SAW really did this, if you have not yet seen it then the ending will blow you away and if you have you can pick up on things that you have missed out on. I know this is rated R so if you are under 17 I think that you would need a parental concent form.

Movie
I am a very indecisive person so it’s hard for me to answer this kind of question. I think however that I will suggest that we watch Hero. This film is really beautiful. Not only does it have a really good story but the cinematography is absolutely amazing. That’s all I really have to say about it.

Obviously a winner; comedy with underlying awkward love stories! Starring, among others: Ray Ramano, Rip Torn, Famke Janssen, and Zooey Deschanel. Please, I am on my knees (metaphorically).

We should watch the movie se7en. We should watch this because its about a topic not many people know about. This might let them know what the seven deadly sins are. This movie is about a man who commits the seven deadly sins. I saw this movie once and I liked it a lot. It’s a good movie but it is kind of different type of movie. This movie will teach you about something you didn’t know.

I think the class should watch the movie Eulogy because I have not seen it and it looks incredibly funny. It has a great cast including Rip Torn and Ray Ramano who is very very funny. It’s a movie about a dysfunctional family who is together for their Grandfathers funeral. They have so many problems that occur because they are put in close quarters because of the funeral. It looks to be a very great comedy that has a lot of issues that can be written about in daily topics in the future after viewing the movie.
