User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

If you are thinking about the movie then no it's just a boy in an alien suit. If you want to know if ET was ever discovered in real life then no or I don't think that any scientists have gone and discovered ET from/in a different planet.

Do you italicize documentary titles?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

There are several methods to indicate that a collection of words is a title. They are, in order of preference: • Set the title in italics, as in: The Bridge over the River Kwai, this is the preferred method • Set the title within quotation marks, "The New York Times" • Set the title in all capital letters; this is done when italics are unavailable: LITTLE WOMEN • The least-preferred method is to use an underscore; in a word-processing program, this can generally be found under "type/font/style" or in a similar location depending upon the application; on a typewriter, one must first type the title, then backspace to the beginning of the title and add the underscores (Shift key and hyphen key, pressed simultaniously).

What are two issues discussed in the documentary The inconvenient truth?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Its not about forcing my ideas on any other person.

These nouns refer to the quality of being in accord with fact or reality. Truth is a comprehensive term that in all of its nuances implies accuracy and honesty: "We seek the truth, and will endure the consequences" Charles Seymour.

Veracity is adherence to the truth: "Veracity is the heart of morality" Thomas H. Huxley.

Verity often applies to an enduring or repeatedly demonstrated truth: "beliefs that were accepted as eternal verities" James Harvey Robinson.

Verisimilitude is the quality of having the appearance of truth or reality: "merely corroborative detail, intended to give artistic verisimilitude to an otherwise bald and unconvincing narrative" W.S. Gilbert.

If you'll notice that when talking about any issue, whether it the social science behind Pakistani bitterness in the UK to world relief and reasons behind hunger, that people will pipe in with some uneducated negative reply. The natural reaction of course to the truth is one of disdain, hatred and denial because of the various biases and prejudices inherit within each person.

Case in point, when I once mentioned racism and classicism in England which kept in line with some of the comments about why some pakistanis decided to bomb a few trains in London. And I talked about the anguish and feelings from within the Pakistani community and how the bitterness has resulted in very mixed feelings towards the English and, indeed, the west. All of which was taken from notable sources and books written by social scientists. Many of commentors then went on to speak about their own personal experiences, or simply to deny that any form of racism against pakistanis exists in the UK, and some have even gone to lengths at describing the fact that some minorities are also prejudice and do injustice. The problem here is that while all these things may be true to a degree it takes away from the initial conversation and evaluation of how true racism and classicism has led to Pakistani/Muslim bitterness in the UK. This type of denial also places a hold on extending the conversation towards the bitterness of the Israel/palestinian conflict and the Iraqi war which may have also played a role in the suicide bombings and terrorist organizations within Britain.. And so on and so forth.

"The truth is incontrovertible, malice may attack it, ignorance may deride it, but in the end; there it is." (Winston churchill)

thereby, an inconvenient truth is not suited to the comfort level of a certain individuals or groups definition of reality. Although it may, indeed, still be a fact!

Why do people prefer horror movies?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The reason people like watching horror films is that they are a way to experience both positive and negative emotions simultaneously. There’s something to the cautionary tale theory as it relates to movies. Many do seem to depict chaos that occurs when people venture outside of what is considered societal norms.
