Blogpost 9: "Fantasy"

In films there are different genres that we viewers look forward to and one of this is fantasy.We all know that fantasy movies is the favorite of kids, teenagers, parents, and even grand parents take time to watch fantasy movies. Yes, it is fun to watch and be amazed but sometimes it's not all about sitting and watching other people take what they have seen and apply it in their lives. Would this be a good thing? or should it be just a fantasy in our eyes especially on Children.

According to an article I read on "The Psychological Effects of Children's Movies" from the site winmentalhealth.com. It was stated in the article that watching fantasy movies will create development on Kids, but on the other hand their are evidence that fantasy films significally becomes violent.It change the mold of style thinking for the children. For example the Chucky doll fantasy movie.Most children have seen this movie.It was stated in the article that One second grade girl was having a hard time concentrating on her school work in class. She stated about this movie, "I can't stop think about that movie. Can I write about it?"
 
Nowadays what usually is trending or in is what we go for. I think the tendecy of this movie will increase because these films are teaching the kids to be afraid of dolls.Guidance is a must nowadays.

                             

In another article I read entitled, "Study suggests watching fantasy movies may help enhance creativity in children" by sue from the site therapytoronto.com. Stated that, parents who feel guilty because they left their child watching television should relax, because  there are educational benefits in exposing children to fantasy movies, such as, magical content like witches and wizards, Santa Claus, the Easter bunny and the tooth fairy.

according to the researchers of Department of Psychology at Lancaster University, Dr Eugene Subbotsky, Claire Hysted and Nicola Jones concluded that
“Magical thinking enables children to create fantastic imaginary worlds, and in this way enhances children’s capacity to view the world and act upon it from multiple perspectives." 

Parents must be strict and responsible to their children so that children nowadays can actually know what right and wrong about the movie, they need to guide their children so that they can live a good life.
