8. MOVIE PURPOSE MESSAGE OR PROPAGANDA Propaganda films may be packaged in numerous ways, but are most often documentary-style productions or fictional screenplays, that is produced to convince the viewer of a certain political point or influence the opinions or behavior of the viewer, often by providing subjective content that may be deliberately misleading. http:// en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propaganda_film Fahrenheit 9/11 is a 2004 documentary film by American filmmaker and political commentator Michael Moore.

10. RATINGS MPAA - The Motion Picture Association of America's film-rating system is used in the U.S. and its territories to rate a film's thematic and content suitability for certain audiences.

11. TYPE OF MOVIES LOCAL / DOMESTIC VS. FOREIGN

12. VISUAL PRESENTATION 2D VS. 3D OR STEREOSCOPIC - refers to a technique for creating or enhancing the illusion of depth in an image by presenting two offset images separately to the left and right eye of the viewer. Both of these 2-D offset images are then combined in the brain to give the perception of 3-D depth. Three strategies have been used to accomplish this: have the viewer wear eyeglasses to combine separate images from two offset sources, have the viewer wear eyeglasses to filter offset images from a single source separated to each eye, or have the lightsource split the images directionally into the viewer's eyes

13. MOVIE QUALITY A-LIST (higher budget, mainstream) VS. B-LIST TO Z-LIST (lower budget, more experimental)

14. MOVIE LENGTH FULL-LENGTH (The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, the American Film Institute,and the British Film Institute all define a feature as a film with a running time of 40 minutes or longer.)

15. BASIS IN REALITY FICTIONAL (Fiction is the form of any narrative or informative work that deals, in part or in whole, with information or events that are not factual, but rather, imaginary—that is, invented by the author. VS. NON-FICTIONAL (Non-fiction is the form of any account, narrative, or other communicative work whose assertions and descriptions are understood to be fact. This presentation may be accurate or not—that is, it can give either a true or a false account of the subject in question—however, it is generally assumed that authors of such accounts believe them to be truthful at the time of their composition or, at least, pose them to their audience as historically or empirically true.)
