Have you ever been to an independent cinema? If yes - how was it different? If no - why not?
I have never been to a independent cinema. This could be because the cinema did not really appeal to me or that there was not enough advertisement about the movie that was filmed in one. If I saw a film heavily advertised and they were shown in a independent cinema then I would go out of my way to go and see it, as One Mile Away was not really advertised that much it dint give me the motivation to go and see it in Hackney where it was showing.
What is more appealing about viewing at the cinema than viewing on DVD/online/TV?
Its more appealing to go to the cinema to watch a film because of the atmosphere it creates the sound and the big screen is more better than watching it at home on a 50" TV, its also builds more excitement with the audience as they get really hyped up to see it.
Why has there been a recent trend in Hollywood 're-making' a lot of films?
Hollywood have been re-making making films because they want to make it more popular or give the film another twist E.g Snowhite and the Huntsman, Red Riding hood. They re-make because they want to make it for a modern audience.
Can you see any patterns or trends in films of the last 5 years?
Recently there has been a trend in animation films, such as disney films and Pixar films. Also there's trending that appeal to teenage girls such as twilight or romantic films. Horror is also trending and that will fall under the category apocalyptic.
