The movie "Disconnect"

a) a brief introduction to what the film is about

b) Your opinion about the issues presented in the film - are there any familiar elements?

c) Did you like the film? Why/why not?

d) Which part of the film made an impression on you?  

The movie have three distinct story lines.

One of them is about Cindy and Derek that lost their identity and their money. A man stole their money and we follow them in the investigation.

A reporter that helping a 18-year old sex model to come out of the model environment. And Jason and Frye that are skateboard punks who target Ben for an extended online prank in which they pose as a girl with a Facebook crush on Ben.

I Liked the movie! It made me more aware of that this is things that could happened to many people. It is much easier to bully on internet than it is in the real life.
That part that Ben`s father kicked Jason`s father made an impression on me. I would not expect that. 
I dont think there are any familiar elements to me in this movie. I see the message it is sending. People today are too much inside, playing video games or plays on the phone. They forget the world and only staying home. The issues in this film are real, they are happening every day and it scares me that it is so easy to fake a identification on Facebook.

Q&A, English

Hello all my fantastic readers, here is my English task for my English lesson 070115!

Enjoy :D

 Do you think the colonies had good reason to declare Independence? Why?

2. Should one country be able to colonize another? When should a colony be granted Independence?

3. The Bill of Rights guarantees Americans "the right to bear arms". Many Americans still feel this is important for personal safety and in case they need to revolt  against their own government, They argue that the Minutemen and the local militias only won the fight for Independence beacause they had firearms.
What do you think?
Should everyone have the right to bear arms? All kinds of arms?

4. If you were to present your nation's history in the same way as above, which events would you choose? Why?
- List the events and write a couple of sentences about them.

1.

Yes. I think they had a good reason. They had a good reason to declare independence, because every human being is just as much worth as everybody else.

2.
I don`t think a country should be able to colonize another because in every case this happened the power has been abused.
Today the infrastructure is so good so we don`t need to colonize other countries. In this ages we can talk with each other more easily than before. Back in the time it was harder to travel across countries, and talk to each other so colonies back in the time was very good to have,

3.

I mean that everyone in the US will have the right to bear arms. In the United States it is much more crime. If they have a gun or some weapon they can do robberies. I mean that if a person is threatened by someone, it could have a gun but not a huge gun! Just a small gunner.
A gun can be really dangerous and if it gets in the wrong hand it can kill people.

4.
The Viking Period: between 800-1100 AD. At the start of the Viking Period, Norway was only small kingdoms. Harald Hårfagre became king of Norway in 872.
The union between Denmark and Norway: In the 1300s Denmark got more influence over Norway and in 1397 Norway got in union with Denmark and Sweden. Sweden seceded from the union but Denmark and Norway was remained united until 1814.
The plague: The black death came to Norway in 1349, in short time it had killed a third of the population.
