Both of these stories explore the ideas of found family (the best trope i will not be taking criticism) and family not ending with blood. however, the one redeeming quality was the similarites it had to Bratz: The Movie (2007). also the incest reveal was gross and unnecessary, and i was planning to rate this book 2 stars but it got demoted to 1 simply because of that part. "My best friend is a RAT!" will never fail to make me smile. whenever im sad i like to reread that scene. however i did like simon turning into a rat that was pretty funny. i couldn't stand the two leads, clay and jacey boy, and none of the side characters had bratitude (although Isabelle did have that attitude, so she was my favorite). It wasn't funky and fabulous, and CERTAINLY wasn't rowdy or real. it met my expectations, and i expected it to be pretty bad, so the best thing i can say about it is that I knew what i was getting into. All you had to do was head to Rumbelows, hire a tape recorder, borrow the tape from your local newsagent and you had yourself a night. No need to go to the local fleapit cinema or hope that it turned up on TV. Of course, with there being no age restrictions, it was possible for horror fans to finally see what genuine, unregulated horror was like.įilms like Zombie Flesh Eaters, Cannibal Apocalypse, I Spit on Your Grave and The Driller Killer were released uncut onto tape. One of the reasons is because (most of the time) the shops didn't care what they got in, so you would have shops that had seemingly everything from Apocalypse Now to Nightmares in a Damaged Brain. With the explosion in the home video market (and long before Blockbuster/XtraVision standardised the business), working class business types running sweet shops, newsagents, chippies etc would get in on the market and become loaded overnight. Christopher Owens has been reading about a moral panic.Ĭompared to the barren wasteland of the early to mid 70's, the early 80's must have seemed like an alternate universe. Regarding the fact that women were not regarded the audience and readers of literary works, that men mostly wrote for men and manly language was regarded the best one in the past, we should wait to see whether women can create a language proper to the gender of their protagonists at the time when they have found an opportunity to enter into the field of writing novels and have written great novels so far. In Iran, women's entrance into social and cultural atmospheres is of little record. His theories mostly suggested that manly tone dominates the language. For the first time, he proclaimed that men's language is different from that of women. The first theories on the issue were proposed by Robin Lakoff in his famous article "language and woman's place" which made a great development in sociolinguistic studies. The review and analysis of Persian literary works in terms of their language and gender is a relatively new issue which needs extensive research. |
