Supersize Me

As a person who spends a megabucks of time online watching Youth videos or just browsing, Ive discover a lot Of advertisements and most of them very stood out to me. I rec whole McDonalds having multiple advertisements before the start of the Youth telling you about their all natural 100% Canadian Beef. Having this before a video encourages the viewer to counting to watch the ad in order to see the video that you actually want to see. Another way McDonalds markets their foods is just by pictures with cleaver slogans or good deals on it.Pictures of hamburger that take ours to prep be and make and even long-lived to Photos frequently protrudes in magazines and billboards argon all part of marketing tactics. The huge blown up pictures of chips found in the subway stations and on the giant screens at Tarantula square are all in that respect to convince you to go to McDonalds and spend money. Even something simple as having the golden arches appear in a icon incr tranquillity th e sales of McDonalds. 2) How does McDonalds specifically tar brace children?As a child, find back begging my parents to take me to a specific McDonalds which was 20 minuets away from our house because there was a typeset place there. The colorful tunnel/jungle gym set draws in children of all ages to come in and purchase something just so they could go down the slide. Building these play places with the giant signs are all the way targeting children convincing them to come in and buy something. The happy meal with the collectible toys, the colorful packaging and the cartoons are some of the other ways children are drawn in.As shown in the video, children could easily identify the McDonalds Clown with ease while some struggled to identify George Washington. This is mainly due to the accompaniment that done arresting techniques and advertising through television, the McDonalds clown has become one of the most well known characters in the childs mind. 3) What makes this icon per suasive? remote some Of the other documentaries out there that only point out the proscribe aspects of fast food, this especial(a) video isnt one faced and it tell us both sides of the situation.It is a well known fact that fast food is very unhealthy and this documentary just reinforced this point finally large(p) everyone physical evidence all set out telling you what the effects about. This commentary showed us fixing updates from the doctors telling us the actual numbers has been gaining allowing us to have a very specific comparison. However, Morgan has mentioned umteen propagation that he did enjoy some of the meals at McDonalds and he did say that they taste good. He admitted that he got addicted to eating McDonalds and it physically made him feel better.No matter how much you look at the negative effects, many of us will still go to McDonalds just because it tastes good. Overall I think this documentary gave me personally an insight to the scary effects McDonalds on y our body even though it tastes good. 4) In what ways do we need to be critical of the movie and its message? Even though this movie shows us the effects of the 30 day dieting, we have to carefully image the regulations and rules that specify what is allowed in the diet and what isnt.It is understandable that the producers of the film want to raise awareness towards the deadly effects McDonalds Can have on someone. However, feel that the outlines of the diet were bias towards a more negative dissolving agent. For example, during the 30 days, Morgan was only allowed to eat what was on the McDonalds menu and he was to consume 3 squares a day like a typical American. However if you think about this thoroughly, whenever you go to McDonalds, do you order something different every time?Something else to consider is the fact that since your getting fast food in the first place, how you will have the time to get 3 squares at McDonalds. I know that there are some people out there who do con sume everything at McDonalds on a daily basis. And also know that the filmmakers needed to idiom the effects of McDonalds but to a normal person, the rules of the diet were exaggerated. Another reason why the message and result of the film may have been manipulated is the locations where he ordered McDonalds from.Throughout the film, he was asked to supervise the meal 5 times in Taxes. The movie also has him go California, New York and many other locations all over the get together States. Because of this, the results of the diet come from a variety of places. In my option, if he were to have filmed this in the skinniest states in America rather than the fattest, he may have had less supervises and maybe even healthier local anesthetic specialties. 5) Does this film bound Canadians? Even though this film was created in the United States, I think this does reflect Canadians to some degree.Canada has considerably less McDonalds and fast food restaurants than the United States. Beca use of this, some may think that Canadians are a lot healthier than the Americans. However mainly due to the media and other influences, Canada has also adopted some of Americas bad food habits and our diets have also been getting progressively unhealthier. Personally, I think that Canadians in widely distributed have more information displayed in the stores allowing people to have access to that information. (on the walls and on the sides of the boxes).I also noticed that in Canadian McDonalds promotes the healthier options more than the unhealthier options. Other than that, Canadian McDonalds can be just as unhealthy as American McDonalds and its up to the consumer to choose. 6) How did McDonalds change after the movie Even though McDonalds denies that the movie influenced any of the companys actions, McDonalds did change a few things after the movie was created. Possible one of the most great changes they made was to take out the supervise option in their menu.
