I have to write a dissertation for my master's on a dystopian film. I was thinking Blade Runner. Should I write it on the original or lean on the memes and do 2049 instead?
I have to write a dissertation for my master's on a dystopian film. I was thinking Blade Runner...
you paid a college to let you talk about films for four years
what master's program expects you to write about a fucking movie?
Qwack Succ Allahu Ackbar
Are you sure you're not in a special needs facility, user?
don't do those films, it being a dystopia isn't the main part/point of the story, just a setting
College is FREE
Jesus what's with Americans thinking the entire world is the same as their shithole
i'd go for 2049 because it cool
>other nations failing to follow the most successful nation of all time
I guess I should give you all less credit.
Original definitely
Do 2049
Plenty of humanities masters, dumb STEMfag
Do Children of Men. The dystopian setting and the nature of the society demonstrated predicates, and leads to, the character's actions and historic life choices: the "change" in his character also highlights the negative aspects of society by mirroring them against his willingness to change.
>doing dissertation on dystopian film
>not picking Idiocracy
This.
This one is also a great idea, especially if you want a brownie point bonus.
You get cucked every single day of your life paying taxes so that people can watch movies all day... KEK
>masters dissertation
>subject suitable for a high school essay
this
I'm a NEET, the government pays me
by subject i mean
>write about a dystopian film
not blade runner specifically
because americans are the ones that call it college. Do you know the only other country that calls university college? I think poo do.
Seems more like an essay you'd have to write to get admitted into high school.
I'm sure an high school essay on 1984 is comparable to an essay by an actual academic
Why does this board insist on making retarded statements?
Why ask a question you already know the answer to?
Any subject is valid to be discussed at any level. It's the level of depth and quality of the analysis that determines the value of the discussion (and you'd hope it is more insightful at a higher level).
I am convicned you are either shitposting of from a country so fundamentally third-world that your idea of academia is pasting in a Wikipedia article - completely shamelessly because that's what your professor expects and you get top marks for that
>I have to write a dissertation for my master's on a dystopian film. I was thinking Blade Runner.
Do yourself a favour and choose a more interesting movie like or pic related
How about you write about a topic you are legitimately interested in and would like to explore rather than trying to impress random nutjobs on the internet?
Who the fuck said anything about pasting a Wikipedia article, you absolute nonce? You do realize that just because you're allowed a broad subject matter for your essay or dissertation (most master's allow students the freedom of choice, since they're being prepared to actually do professional and academic research in the future), it does not mean that you're also allowed to plagiarize or write some elementary shit about the book or film, right?
You've never been to university, have you? It's clear you haven't, you keep making assumptions and ridiculous statements.
This is always a good point in regards to Yea Forums.
And as someone pointed out, Blade Runner is set in a dystopia but is not about dystopia.
Uncle lives in Canada. Dude pays roughly the same amount in taxes as I do, which is to say not much. I'm confused as to where you hicks keep getting this info from or if you just spoonfeed it to yourself because LOLAMERICABEST.
I'm american and quite a few people in my area call it university. It all depends on how you were raised.
i said it because in my direct experience that's what people from third world countries do
cool blog entry look forward to hearing more
No, you said it because you were talking out of your ass, because you made some ridiculous assumptions out of very limited information given by OP making you look like a fool in the process, and because you're desperate to look down on other people, likely because you have nothing to be proud of yourself.
did you even read my post?
>from a country so fundamentally third-world that your idea of academia is pasting in a Wikipedia article
you're not even OP so you are sitting there in tears insisting he's not from the third world but .. you don't even know? lmao
>titled alphaville
>not one chad or beta meme
Trash
I didn't insist on anything. All OP said was that he was writing a dissertation on a dystopian film. Yet you came into this thread claiming he was going to write an highschool or Wikipedia-tier essay on whichever film he chose purely because of the "subject," highlighting your ignorance of how academia actually works. I merely called (You) out on your stupidity. Whether OP studies at a third-world university or not is completely irrelevant to the fact that you assumed from the get-go that "writing a dissertation on a dystopian film" automatically means "copying off of Wikipedia because lmao the subject is broad and seems simple and I never got beyond highschool."
so you had the chance to get decent education for free but you chose to waste everyones time and money?
nah u
Canadian taxes are super high. Especially if you're trying to escape the middle class. The country seems basically set up to divide rich and poor as hard as possible. The fact that you haven't the balls to say where you're from say a lot. At least amerifags own up to where they're from and have a little self respect. The fact that you're using your masters to write about dystopian films just means you're trucking head long into a live of low end service industry or retail.
I'll have a large vanilla latte OP
>HURRR DURR MOOOONEY I WANT MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY IM GONNA BECOME RICH AND BUY AAAAAAALLL THE STUFF MONEEEEEYYYYY
I sure am glad I'm not an American, Jesus Christ. I wouldn't be able to handle it if my entire country was structured around making money like it's the most important thing in the world.
Blade Runner Final Cut
not him but while i think liberal arts has its place, it's value, a post-graduate fucking degree where you 'write about a film' is not qualifying you for anything meaningful either.
A film studies degree is qualifying me to make movies, and it especially helps when I've already starred in several plays. Jesus Christ, this entire website is so fucking cynical and pig-headed that they can't think of a practical use for anything that isn't STEM. Everything is fucking useless even when there are millions of people who prove them wrong.
Write it on Stalker you pleb.
>I have to write a dissertation for my master's on a dystopian film.
>Just fuck me up
oh my god you are going to hate your past self so much in about 5 years.
lol i like this site where they have the example, in the section about what you can do with a film studies degree, of a film director. However he directly says that the degree did not play any part
>How did you become a director?
>I became a director by directing my own films. At first, they were films that nobody saw, but then I wrote and directed a short film that cost a few hundred pounds to make and it was accepted into some film festivals.
the new and better one of course.
2049
