Doctor Strange: blog tasks

1) Marvel Studios
Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures

2) Conglomerate ownership is when a large company owns other smaller companies involved in film making to gain maximum revenue. Walt Disney owns Marvel Studios.

3) The British Board of Film Classification (BBFC), previously the British Board of Film Censors, is a non-governmental organisation, founded by the film industry in 1912 and responsible for the national classification and censorship of films exhibited at cinemas and video works.

4) PG-13 for “sci-fi violence and action throughout, and an intense crash sequence,”

5) The trailer, Marvel introduced a Doctor Strange character to their mobile game - creates synergy, and social media advertising.

6) The star power - Benedict Cumberbatch is a big name actor, big actors cost more to employ. The CGI on the film poster is a convention of superhero blockbusters.

7) Doctor Strange cost $165 million to make and they got nearly $700 million in box office.

8) I would consider Doctor Strange a success but not to the degree of movies like Black Panther - which made £1 billion at the box office.
