ARGUMENT POINTS – Entertainment in Society



Today; society has become all about entertaining and entertainment. The people who are considered respectable and reputable in society are actresses, singers, movie stars, and musicians; the good old heroes who depended on cranium power are slowly being eradicated from the minds and positions of society. The purpose of entertainment is to present a fictional ideal that is based in reality; just enough for the viewer to relate to and thus become engrossed and attached to that certain show or movie, etc. etc. Therefore when we present of relate an universal truth or ideal that is actually a fact; we are careful to give the credit of that presentation to the author or director; because the character is not real and is there for the main purpose of entertaining; not making sensible and profound statements; that are anyways not his or hers at all; but the one who is responsible for the whole performance.
REFLECTION
The discussion board in my AP course is fundamental in creating a sense in me to think broadly and thoroughly. I think my teacher’s support is also paramount  in supporting me and motivating me to do my best. My classmate’s responses to my discussions made me think and gave me an opportunity to further develop my ideas and thoughts. My goal is to finish this course as soon as possible because I already took my AP test for it and thus the test prep areas are kind of unnecessary now to do.
