Secondary Research

As I have told you before.... their is a message in all movies. I did some research about subliminal messages in movies and learned that a subliminal message is a message in the form of a sound or picture. this technique is used in movies and advertising to influence media viewers. If you look for messages in movies you will notice that all Disney movies use subliminal messages. The movie industry spends millions of dollars to grab everyones undivided attention. Statistics tell us that the average child spends many hours viewing movies, either in theaters or on video. Is it not reasonable to conclude that such media can affect his or her view of the world? In particular, can their understanding of ethical guidelines be affected? As is true with all media, movies contain someone's ideas about life. The main question we should ask ourself is (Do we watch for morals or messages in movies?)
