After seeing March of the Penguins I was surfing the internet trying to figure out where to take the essay, because there were too many possibilities for the topic . I soon found myself watching Monty Python, when along comes the perfect sketch to start this article. A reporter comes in saying, "Penguins, yes, penguins, what relevance do penguins have to the advancement of medical science? Well, oddly enough, quite a lot." He transitions into a joke about the search not being random. Then he resumes the penguins "Yet scientists believe that these penguins, these comical flightless webbed b@$#ards, unwittingly help man plumb the unexplored depths of the human mind." The news cast cuts to the scientist who introduces himself and then states "...having worked on the theory postulated by the late Dr. Kramer that the penguin is intrinsically more intelligent than the human." From there a multitude of scientific parodies lead to the confirmation of this theory according to which penguins are more intelligent, even if it is clearly underlined that the penguin's brain is smaller than that of a human being. This causes the penguins to rise up and take on the role of humans. After careful consideration, I have decided to discuss this clip as there really is no better way to present how animals are used in films as entertainment. Whether it's a crazy Monty Python sketch or the heartwarming love story of March of the Penguins, both were created for many reasons, but the most influential was the desire to earn money. Keep Monty Python on the back burner for now, it will have meaning later, let's move on to addressing the questions posed about March of the Penguins. Like March did or......middle of the paper......not quite as animals are heavily influenced by the media surrounding the pet store business. Now, going back to Monty Python, in this sketch the scientists are highly flawed in their research and produce ridiculous amounts of errors, but the result is the taking over of the penguins. In the animal film industry films are produced to make money, these films rely on attracting the greatest number of people. To do this they create their own themes, forms and images, which at this time have become so ingrained in how people perceive films that don't have these elements would feel wrong. In the end, the main motive of the filmmakers is to make money, but through their themes they reinforce and recreate the values ​​of society, to me it seems just as flawed and ridiculous a system to show the values ​​of society as much as the science that leads to the domination of penguins it was highly imperfect.
