Presentations

As far as presentations go thus far, I have really enjoyed pretty much all of them. Everyone has done a great job. I’ve noticed that things ran a lot better today on Thursday perhaps from learning from the presentations on Tuesday. I know that I did for my presentation.

First off I’d like to give honorable mention to Chris Abbas for signing up to go first. That must have took a lot of courage. I really enjoyed his analysis on “Remember the Titans” and how good an actor Denzel Washington was in portraying coach Boone. “Remember the Titans” is one of my favorite movies. I liked how Le Meisha used her personal experiences as support for her presentation. Herman’s presentation about “Rush Hour” I really enjoyed too. It is nice to have someone explain that “unwritten rule” of the use of the N-word. Rush Hour is another favorite of mine as well. Nice job volunteering and being prepared when it wasn’t your day to present!

Today’s presentations were great. I had never seen any of the movies that were presented today, however it seemed that everyone who went knew their topics. I thought Meghan really knew what she was talking about in her analysis of “Bamboozled”. She was quite knowledgeable of the director as well. Jillian’s “Shopgirl” was really good as well. I like how most of her slides were pictures instead of text, which really gave her a lot of room to talk freely about the movie and explain it better. Even though I had never seen “40 Year Old Virgin”, I learned a lot about it from Sami and found it quite humorous.

Presentations have really gone smoothly and I look forward to the rest of them on Tuesday. Great job everyone, and for looking professional too!!
