There is no complete consensus that has been
reached on this topic, yet I would like to take a stance and make my
disagreement with the given thesis that watching a serious movies are
is better than
watching entertaining movies. In order to substantiate my central focal points,
I will provide specific reasons and explore the given topic in great detail in
this essay.
To
start with, I firmly believe that movies are is classified as
one of entertainments which serve people to use their spare time, and for their
enjoyment. People used to spend their time with their friends, family, and etc.
before. Opponents of my perspective claim that serious movies are more
beneficial for people’s knowledges and lives. Proponents of this view raise several points as the rationales for their argument and their
argument might have some validity. But after a closer look,
observation and analysis into their argument, it would prove
inadequate. Much to their surprise, there exists an abundance of examples that calling call into question
what they claim. (불필요한 설명이 너무 깁니다. 템플릿을 따라하는 건 좋지만 적당히 사용하셔야지, 이렇게 길게 쓰시면
너무 주제에서 벗어나거나 돌아가서 설명하는 느낌을 줍니다.) Among such examples, my personal experience can
elucidate their incorrect viewpoint. One day, my friend and I met after quite a
long time. We were kind of boring bored with our daily routines
and were in an awkward silence, so we needed some sort of entertainment.
At the right moment, there were some funny movies currently showing, so we
watched one of them. It was really good for both of us, because we could laugh
out loud enough while watching the movie, giving ourselves an opportunity to
use our spare time very productively. This validates my earlier contention
that people used to spend their spare time with whom they think are valuable
people. (used to – 전에 그랬지만 지금은 그렇지 않다, 라는 느낌이 강합니다)
The
account of mine that I illustrated above is not the only evidence to support my
view. A recent survey conducted by one of the leading educational consulting
firms in Korea endorsed my opinion when the survey respondents were asked
whether they sided with the argument that people get a vigor from entertaining
movies or not. A leading education expert claims that entertaining movies
contribute to relieve the stress while people watching such movies.
Moreover, entertaining movies are good for people who are desperate or not
really in for a good atmosphere. This is because people who are affected from
such movies would become more positive-thinking people.
In
conclusion, in spite of the fact that there might be some opinions that
watching serious movies are much better than watching entertaining movies, however, from the reasons that I described above, we may reach
to the conclusion that it is better to watch movies which are made for
amusement and entertainment.
