Gremlins 2; James Bond: tomorrow never dies network? The fountainhead? Mel Brooks: Silent movie? -----Original Message----- From: Andrejevic, Mark [mailto:[log in to unmask]] Sent: Wednesday, February 27, 2002 7:19 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: media mogul villains Hi -- for a class I'm teaching, I'm trying to come up with a list of movies that have as their villains corrupt/monopolistic media moguls (who work in any medium: film, TV, print, etc.). Bankers and the oil industry gets nailed all the time, but I know there are movies out there in which the evildoers are media types: I'm just having a hard time coming up with them. I'm interested in the way in which the media commodify their own self-critique. Thanks for your thoughts. ---- To sign off Screen-L, e-mail [log in to unmask] and put SIGNOFF Screen-L in the message.
