We all know the basic overview of what Pocahontas is all about. The real Pocahontas was married off to a colonizer when she was around the age of fourteen. She then trotted around as a “savage” until she got sick and died. Her culture and relatives all were killed off. However, the Disney production we all have come to know and love kind of fluffed the movie out quite a bit. It downplays the actual historical relevance that it is and gives off this false sense of reality. Pocahontas is a brutal and sad story, and Disney seems to downplay it and tries to falsify what actually happened. [...]

1. Movies to Warnings

There are tons of movies that allude to the downfall of countries, the apocalypse, and government conspiracies, and even future innovations. These movies are supposed to be for entertainment purposes. However, they’re actually warning signs to the audience, foreshadowing the events that are to come. Movies like the Purge, Dawn if the Dead, What Happened to Monday, and even Back to the Future are all movies that are warning us about the future of humanity. Instead of keeping these in a movie genre, I want to translate these types of movies into warning commercials.

2. College Tours to College Nightmares 

While going my orientations nd college visit/tour at FAU, I was as immediately reeled in by the beautiful campus, beach-ish location, fun events, and the cafeteria. [...]

I had a few ideas. Some impossible, but good think about.

1. Any Miyazaki movie as a rock opera: I would find it incredibly interesting how it could be possible to translate something that is so somber and quiet, but contains so much radical and mystical visual flair, into something that would be full of noise and music. It’d be hard to replicate, but considering Spirited Away has an entire scene on a train that lasts literally around 6 or so minutes in dead silence, it’d be cool to try and see how another genre would use that silence and convey something with it that the original movie couldn’t.
2. Near-Amish Romances done in the same style as one of those sports animes: When you get down to it, sports animes (The ones with a team full of one gender who all work for a “cause” but it’s kind of almost a metaphor for friendship but also a metaphor for sex) are incredibly sterile, especially the ones that appeal to young adult females.

-Anti-dating site

Do you like to date people? Neither do we. But we can fix that at Ihateallofyou.com, where you can find your cynical soulmate. Our dating website pools the angriest population into one online lover’s roulette, separated by pet peeves, similar dislikes, and other general woes against the world to create an agreeable existence between two hate-filled beings. Instead of finding out these difficulties to mesh throughout the date, relationship or conversation, you have disagreements in advance–possibly shared disagreements–and have more time to explore interests. You do you and, occasionally, each other. It would be an interesting transition from the standard way of dating via common positive interests.

-Food/Cooking blogs into online therapy room sessions

You know how every time you look up a recipe, you instead find the life story of a babyboomer’s “dramatic” episodes or the craziness of their six-figure, retired lifestyle– and the recipe in fine print at the very bottom of the page? [...]

The office handbook

The office is easily a show that is seen as  a cult classic in the realm of television sitcoms.  However it is obvious to anyone fan of the show that the office in “The Office” is not a environment meant to be conducive to productivity despite of the success of the Dundermifflin branch. This ever apparent disrespect for the traditional work environment is why I feel as though a multitude of the episodes can be used to build a handbook of prohibited behavior.

The princess and the complete waste of time.

True Crime Podcasts –> Recorded as comedies to encourage consumer enjoyment.

Podcasts have grown in both producers and listeners over the last few years. True crime podcasts consistently top the charts, but what makes some of them so successful? Deep diving into the horrific minds of serial killers with dark humor and comedic elements to make hearing these crimes fun.For example LPOTL has become a mogul podcast of telling disturbing stories in hilariously messed up sense fashion that has become a cult following. https://www.lastpodcastontheleft.com/

Finding Nemo a la Son of Batman

While the relationships of the protagonist in a film noire to their objective isn’t always necessarily familial, the lessons achieved from their pairings reimagines the main character undoubtably. The journey taken by Marlon is filled with strife, new knowledge and a willingness to achieve his ultimate goal; the rescue of his beloved son. A rendition of The Sopranos would be honestly life-changing as a retelling through Finding Nemo would challenge the cinematic conventions that makes such pathos in stories quite powerful. I just believe that a film noire retelling would ultimately highlight or contextual those comedic breaks offered by Dory–making her habitual forgetfulness a crutch to the overly dour clownfish.

Fast Food — Does It Really Pay Off

For the past two decades or so, fast food has become on the biggest sources of revenue and attention in our society. Fast food restaurants such as McDonald’s, Burger King, Wendy’s, Taco Bell, and more. When we hear commercials and Ads of these particular companies, what do we always hear? Yes, stuff like “Eat Healthy”, “100% real meat”, “cheap and healthy”, or “Four for Four”, all portraying the message that the food is nothing but good for you and worth the dollar or two you would be paying. Along with the sayings, the Ads are always too good to be true, as the burgers look so separated and placed perfectly, coming off the steaming grill, when really there’s a chance your burger might have been microwaved; That doesn’t happen to everyone, but there’s a high chance!
