I've unfortunately had some problems since near the end of January with work. Because exams are over, the work from my other subjects is increasing with having to resume with ICT coursework and Maths. Plus i've been stuck with a cold for around 2 weeks, which has led to me missing a couple of days.
I also got snowed in at work last weekend so lost out on 2 days to do my work, plus i've been having problems with both my laptop and internet lately so i've got lots to catch up on....

Applying Theory to Inglorious Basterds
Fiske
Experiences from media. (Twin towers, Cruise ship, Car Chase. Like a movie) Comparing things to films.
We recognise Inglorious Basterds as a war film, even though we've never experienced war itself, because we recognise elements from other war films. Using what we've learnt from other films.
(Inglorious Basterds isn't really a war film)
We make sense of something by making it into a text (back to 9/11 example)
Cultural Knowledge (Uniforms, characters, countries, weapons, a daring mission)
Whenever we watch films, we based what we know about that film from what we've seen in other texts. (I.e. our knowledge of WW2 on WW2 films)
Our knowledge of war films, comes from other war films we see
Levi Strauss
Developed concept of Bricolage (Collage)
'Debris' from other texts
1)-Battleship Potekim
2)-Bowie
3)-Sound of music
4)-Spaghetti Western (music, framing)
5)-The Searchers
6)-Fairytale
7)-German Directors
8)-Blaxploitation
9)-Tarantino's own style (Yellow Text)
10)-Mexican Stand off
11)-Western
12)-Dirty Dozen, Magnificent Seven
13)-Other War Films
Saw that directors constructs texts from other texts using;
-Addition, (1) (2) (3) (7) (8) (10) (11) (12)
-Deletion, (13) (War film elements [No major battles, emotions, hardly any shooting, journey], taken the fear from the shooting scene making it romantic, historical facts [Hitler, way the war ends]
-Substitution, (9)
-Transposition (Transformation) (6) (2) (5) (8)
- Genette
- Derrida
