Zusammenfassung der Ressource
Total Film 2
- Clear high quality screenshot from the movie itself allows
the reader to gain an insight into the costume design and
overall tone of the film. From this particular screenshot
we can gather that Gandalf will encounter something bad
as proven by his facial expressions.
- Rating of film
shown in red.
So if the reader
doesn’t want to
spend their
time reading
the entire
review they can
quickly locate a
universal
rating system
that can
quickly inform
them on
whether the
movie is worth
their time or
not.
- The editors
purposeful lack of
complicated
terminology opens
up the magazine to a
wider audience
demographic.
- Reminder
to the
reader
where and
how to
subscribe
to every
issue of
Total Film.
- The structure of the review
is simple enough.
Paragraphs are not
necessarily short, however
the simplicity of the
struture minimizes any
confusion that a reader
could have. Also, the review
concludes at the end with a
conclusion paragraph,
which is clearly shown by
the division of red text.
- Review quote in red so
it clearly stands out
amongst the main bulk
of text. ‘Fighting talk’
possibly a pun to the
amount of time spent
talking instead of
fighting in the movie.
Allows the editor to be
amusing and connect
with his readers.
- Shows page number,
issue number and date
of issue to allow the
reader to quickly and
easily remind
themselves of which
issue they are reading.
- Light hearted pun which is also
a reference to another movie.
Creates a fun and relaxed
atmosphere for the reader
which allows them to connect
and like the editors of the
magazine.
- The language used within the
review could be described as
informal. Due to the subject
matter, the editor does not feel the
need to bore the reader with
complicated terminology that the
average reader would not
understand. Phrases such as, "a
fitting end (or should that be
middle?)" allow the reader to laugh
with the editor and everything
becomes instantly more
lighthearted, which allows the
average reader to have fun whilst
reading reviews.
