Mainstream/cut/alternative

We learnt about mainstream, cult and alternative films today.
Mainstream films are fimls like Avatar, that have a big grose and are films that will have room for a secound sequend e.g (part 2 or books toys ant etc).
A cult is a small group, it something that appeals to a small market. for example someone like Giggs, he will come under cult because before he was quite known us young people knew him but adults didnt, but now alot of people know hom but he still not mainstream. Most british films come across as cult apart from 'love actually' this film is classed as mainstream because of the well known britsh actors and it had american actors aswell and mostly the money. most cult fims do not get shown in every cinema depending on the film depends on the area the film will get shown in like 'Kidulthood' didnt get shown in all cinemas around london, it only gonna get shown in 'Urban areas' like tottenham, holloway , brixton.
An Alternative film is a film that spends alot of money but not as much money as mainstream.

We looked at few films and analysed what group they come under, the first film was Star wars battle of the heroes.
Its a Mainstream film, that attracts a mainstream audience, its made for americans as they have the money. Alot of money was spent making this film, it had a very big budget. its based on fantasy.
One of the highest selling films .

The next film was Cass.
Cass is about a black man who grew up in a white area, its british so its will come across as cult, so this film will only get released in urban areas it also comes across as a subversive film because its doing something againts the law.

Evil Dead was the last film we watched, which was a horror genre , we classed it bas half cult and half alternative and subversive, becuase it has a few comedic elements.
its notn a typical hollywood film where everyones happy colours are jolly and etc.
