I have decided to print screen the comments from youtube which have previewed the trailer from the film "The kings speech".The top two comments are both postitive the first one saying that it has inspired audiences. Many different people must have thinked the same thing because that comment alone has 106 likes. The second highest commtent below has 46 likes saying that the all the oscars that it has been nominated for was well deserved.The next comment down is quite different from the rest as it doesnt just focus on the film but they are relating their love for the film with personal expericence - in saying that they themselfs have severe stammer and thay it brought hope to them that there will be a cure for themselves as there was for "Berty" in the film, that he/she also has a voice.Other comments have claimed it to be the best movie of 2010, postively comments on the main character of the film(Colin Firth). Aswell as stating what they thought the best part of the trailer was by adding in the time statements to that other members of the audience are able to see his/her  view on that specific part.

However on this specific clipping from Youtube with postitive comments it doesnt mean that everybody who has watched this trailer imperticular has liked it. Some people may have not have a youtube account at all meaning they couldnt put down their thoughts on the film. Some people on the other hand may have just dislike the trailer itself showing people that not everyone who has watched it did enjoy it- out of the 79,000+ who have viewed this film only a staggering 3 have disliked it while 154 people have liked it, showing the substanstial difference in what people have generally thought.

These comments are from a second trailer that i have found on Youtube claiming 103,000+ views showing that although this is the same trailer as the last one many more people have watched it. the first comment that i am able to see as a public viewer talks about the differences in what they have seen from the UK released trailer and the American verison -" what if my husband were the Duke of York?" whereas in the US version it says "And what if my husband were the King?". The person who actually made this comment blaims this on Americans not knowing the full detials on how he actually became King.It must have been noticed from other people also viewing this clip as it has 7 likes on the comment itself.
Another commentor has commented on the fact that british films tend to use the same actors - which is a positive aspects and a reason why she/he has specifically liked it. Another has simply critisised the film in what has happened saying how he has earned the medals and ribbons that he is wearing as he was born in 1895 making him (19) and too young for him to have been apart of the WW1, where he had spent most of the time in hospital for stomach disorders, however they say dispite those comments king george was very symbolic.There again on this clipping are many postivie comments of the film but on this one imparicular there is more critisism on how things were done for instance of the comment i have just explained.On the negative side there is one comment claiming that "The Kings Speech" shouldn't of won best picture and that another film should of. But different people will have different opionions and different audiences e.g. British may prefer this film over american audiences.

As many people will know "The Kings Speech" was nominated for many various awards in the BAFTA's. At the end of the night it came out with an amazing 14 wins, including such awards as best actor for Colin Firth who plays the King aswell as best supporting actors - Geoffrey Rush his speech therapist and Helena Bonham Carter who plays King Georges wife.

The kings speech had also won other awards such as Outstanding British film,Best supporting actress, Best supporting actor, Best screenplay, Best music, Best leading actor and best film these awards where just from the BAFTA's however it did receive many other awards from many other place/people e.g. american society of cinematographers.

This screenshot above is something that i have taken of "The Kings Speech" Facebook page which has a large number of people that are apart of this page - 340,726 to be specific - as we are able to see right under neath the picture.Again underneath that says how many people are talking about this page e.g. have posted something in relation to it on there Facebook page recently and it says that 3,266 people are talking about this at the moment. Obviously these numbers will change after time as more people may like the film page/begin talking about it but this is the current number that i have found on this day particular.
I have chosen to screenshot the top of the page so that it is clear what it looks like to a new viewer and also so that people are able to see the latest comments on that page.
The top comment on this page as you see is in another language which means unless you speak that language specifically you will be unable to understand but she is talking about the kings speech and what she thinks about it. The second comment that is shown claims that it is such a good movie and that anybody who hasn't seen it is surely missing out on something amazing.The third comment does show signs of negativity about the film as they have claimed it to be "boring... it is dead boring", but that doesn't mean that this user didn't like it at all as straight afterwards he has said that it was " a beautiful film " and an "Awesome movie" this may indicated that certain parts of the movie may not be as interesting as other scenes and even that the film may be a bit to long holding irrelevant scenes.The last two comments also comment on how good they have thought the movie to be by saying such comments as "Amazing" and "Excellent" movie.

i then decided to print screen another set of comments as i thought that the first ones which have been shown on the page wasn't broad enough as they didn't go into enough dept and mostly said the same thing. as you can see from the first comment of this screenshot it goes into a lot more dept by explaining there own experiences and what awards "The kings speech" had one.
The second one actually quotes a part of the film in which they thought had a lot of power and what seems as if had a big impact on them after watching the film as it apparently it had given them goosebumps.
The next one that that can be seen says that it has not been overrated at all so they must of thought that it was as good as people have been claiming.Another comment is from a picture house saying that they have personally added the kings speech to it's film collection for their guests - this is probably because many people have requested to see this movie imperticular and as it wasn't already showing they have willing added to their film collections, meaning that more people are able to view it making more money for the film itself as well as the picture house itself.

to show how many people took into account and commented on what they thought of the film "The kings speech" i have specifically gone onto "The Independent" which is one of the leading newspapers in the UK to see what they had to say about the film. In the article, they have talked about "The Kings Speech glorious BAFTA wins and who it was up against -Black Swan, Inception and 127 hours - as its main competition. They then went on into explaining the awards that it was nominated for but did no win e.g. visual effects, which is understandable as we are able to tell as an audience member of this film as not visual effects where even needed as it was set many years back and trying to come across that way. By adding many visual affects it would moderniSe - making look like it was set more in these days - probably loosing a lot of the popularity that it has gained as it would make it "Unrealistic".


Likewise the screenshot that i have managed to gaet hold of from amazon talks more about the film itself rather than having actuall people commenting on what they thought of the film, whether that would be positive or negative things.From the first paragraph we are able to tell that it goes into great dept about what happens in the film with how Price albert know in the film as "Berty" rarely get a choice to run, whereas candidates from presidents and prime ministers choose to.When explaining the film it will list someone of the characters in context with what they are saying in which they will put in brackets the real actors name and comment on how they think they have acted in the film.
The second then continues on the story of the new king played by Colin Firth talking more about his speech impediment and how he first comes to meeting Lionel Logue(Geoffrey Rush) who comes to be his speech therapist  once again this is only a description of "The Kings Speech" and therefore will not go into detail of how people like and dislike the film, however we are able to learn a lot about the film in good level of dept - background information on what is going to happen in the film and the kind of things that we'll expect from this i am able to give my own views on what i think the film will be like without having to watch the movie as i'm sure other people would.

 The reason that i have chosen to look at this poster over the others is because although it lacks as much details as the others it still reveals and gives off and image of what "The Kings Speech" is really about. For instance the first thing that is strongly presented that i was able to notice was the colour that had been used for the background of the poster.For some reason they have chosen to use a bright orange however i don't understand why they have chosen orange imperticular but it defiantly makes a broad statement and makes everything else that they are trying to show stand out. For example the image of Colin Firth has been used slightly so that you are not able to see his whole face but enough to know how it is, he is facing into a microphone looking like he is preparing to give out a speech.

Even from the fine detail of his expressions we are able to tell that he is not portraying happiness, sadness or any type of emotion but what i am able to see that he is serious in what he is doing and that he looks like he has something important to say and that people should listen because he HAS a voice.

Underneath this picture of Colin Firth we are able to see a quote by  Peter Travers and he has said that "A crowning achievement powered by a dream cast. Colin Firth gives a towering performance, Geoffrey Rush is his match, Helena Bonham Carter is superb, and guy pearce is absolutely stellar". There are two reasons that i could think of why they have put his comment specifically on one of the main posters that are going to be viewed by millions of different people - another reason as to why they have made it so bold/clear so that its one of the main things that are most noticeable when taking quick glances at the poster.1) As it was a celebrities comment it will influence more people that this film may be worth looking into another reason will be because of the effort that has gone into that quote and how much it makes me personally think that their must be some truth is in what he is saying. 

They have also made "The Kings Speech " the biggest font on the entire poster as it has almost main importance by letting people know what the film is called - if people didnt know what the film was called, if they had wanted to look further into what the film is about or o and view it for themselves they wouldn't be able without knowing what it is called.To make this stand out even more they have chosen to put it in red because it contrasts the orange background color and is different from any other colour that has been used in the poster.On this poster they have also placed "The Weinstein Company" at the bottom which is an american film studio who have obviously helped in the production of the film and a website link which audiences should go to if they want to obtain more information, this has been put into smaller fonts and a plain black colour because they are not as important as the other things shown but still has a small level of importance otherwise they would not have been used on the finial design of this poster.
