  So glad you used this clip, Alice! Such a great episode of South Park, particularly in it's critique of Cruise and his absolute refusal to deal with any critiques. To me, it's not the level at which he tries to deny the rumors that only continue ...

  I'm really glad this post started off the Vine week because sound has such an interesting place in Vine videos. From informal talks and even my own Vine making, I often forget that the video is also recording sound because of the skill set I have ama ...

  I'm sure you're already familiar with this piece, but Greg Siegel has an article on Television & New Media on this topic. Very good and useful for class if you teach courses on sport media ...

  Thanks Tanya. I'm also particularly interested in the performativity of the clip which, to my mind, is more parodic than anything. Impey is more than aware of the niche audience he is playing to, which makes his position as a "celebrity" in ...

  Thank you Tanya and Tina for your post. I too immediately thought of Jackass as an intertext here. On one hand I do see the Jackass spinoff show, Wildboyz, as effectively a parody (and thus a kind of critique, if not exactly "resistance") of the ...

  First of all, I'm sorry that I am just now getting around to commenting on this great wrap-up post! I'm glad that you have chosen "Wrecking Ball" because it has always stood out to me, especially after seeing the director's cut. M ...

  Garret, I'm glad that Drew asked you to expand. I find it particularly interesting that the group finds other related topics to discuss between releases. I would think that many communities would fall apart over a long period of inactivity. Very impr ...

  I'm glad you enjoyed my post and that it made you think about the film in a different light! I didn't have a chance to comment on the coming out aspect of the argument because of the word limit, but I also find it fascinating. There is a lot goi ...

  Thanks, I'm enjoying keeping an eye on the annotated copy of The Island of Doctor Moreau that is waiting “on the mantelpiece,” but I do find myself thinking more about Frankenstein, especially regarding the development of Cosima as both scientist and ...
