Screen Comedy and Online Audiences

Screen Comedy and Online Audiences

The question of why we laugh (or don't laugh) has intrigued scholars since antiquity. This book contributes to that debate by exploring how we evaluate screen comedy. What kinds of criteria do we use to judge films and TV shows that are meant to be funny? And what might that have to do with our social and cultural backgrounds or with wider cultural ideas about film TV comedy quality and entertainment? The book examines these questions through a study of audience responses posted to online facilities such as Twitter Facebook review sites blogs and message boards. Bore’s analysis of these responses considers a broad range of issues including how audiences perceive the idea of national comedy; what they think of female comedians; how they evaluate romcoms sitcoms and web comedy; what they think is acceptable to joke about; what comedy fans get excited about; how fans interact with star comedians; and what comedy viewers really despise. The book demonstrates some of the ways in which we can adapt theories of humour and comedy to examine the practices of contemporary screen audiences while offering new insights into how they negotiate the opportunities and constrictions of different online facilities to share their views and experiences. | Screen Comedy and Online Audiences

Straight Skin Gay Masks and Pretending to be Gay on Screen

Straight Skin Gay Masks and Pretending to be Gay on Screen

Straight Skin Gay Masks and Pretending to Be Gay on Screen examines cinematic depictions of pretending-to-be-gay assessing performances that not only reflect heteronormative and explicitly homophobic attitudes but also offer depictions of gay selfhood with more nuanced multidirectional identifications. The case of straight protagonists pretending to be gay on screen is the ideal context in which to study unanticipated progressivity and dissidence in regard to cultural construction of human sexualities in the face of theatricalized epistemological collapse. Teasing apart the dynamics of depictions of both sexual stability and fluidity in cinematic images of men pretending to be gay offers new insights into such salient issues as sexual vulnerability and dynamics and long-term queer visibility in a politically complicated mass culture which is mostly produced in a heteronormative and even hostile cultural environment. Additionally this book initially examines queer uses of sexuality masquerade in Alternate Gay World Cinema that allegorically features a world pretending to be gay in which straights are harassed and persecuted in order to expose the tragic consequences of sexual intolerance. Films and TV series examined as part of the analysis include The Gay Deceivers Victor/Victoria Happy Texas William Friedkin’s Cruising and many other straight and gay screens. This is a fascinating and important study relevant to students and researchers in Film Studies Media Studies Gender Studies Queer Studies Sexuality Studies Communication Studies and Cultural Studies. | Straight Skin Gay Masks and Pretending to be Gay on Screen
