American blockbuster

This is the end:
'This is the end' is a Seth Rogan and Evan Goldberg film. It is about famous actors who are friends going to a party and doing reckless things before the end of the world starts to happen. Then it is all about how they try and survive and start hating each other, this makes this film a comedy.

The release date for this film is June 2013 which is good because it would be release in the summer creating a wider audience for this film because of the summer holidays. This film is a comedy with an R rating meaning more people are able and will want to go and see this film.

The production budget for this film is $ 32 million. It was directed by Seth Rogan and the fact that the film stared all his friends will lower the budget cost because they will not be getting as big a pay with this film, meaning all the money can be used for special effects.

The stars:
The good thing about this film is everyone actor involved in this film will have a fan base because they are good actors and have been around for a while or have just been in all the right films.

James Franco:
He entered the acting career through a tv show called 'Freaks and geeks' in 1999 and then made his debut into the film industry with 'Never been kissed' after that he has been in tv-movies and other films where he played small roles. Then he started getting big blockbusters such as 'Spiderman' and then he started getting the small roles over and over again which he didn't like because he believed that he was going to be type casted as a romantic comedy guy. This is when he moved into more independent films with more meaning, some of these films are with Seth Rogan.





Jonah Hill:
He has been in comio roles a while until he got his big break in the 2007 film 'Superbad' which was another Seth Rogan film. After 'Superbad' he has stared in countless box office films for example the remake '21 Jump Street'







Seth Rogan:
He started out in films as a small actor with small roles. Then he started writing, directing and starring in his own films.









Jay Baruchel:
He started in small roles but his big back was 'I'm reed fish'. Jay was in knocked up with Seth also.










The Poster:


This poster is effective because the audience can tell that this film is a comedy from the main image, which is all the main actors fighting in a huddle. This could also show part of the story line. They are all wearing casual bright clothing which shows that this film is creating a normal feel with a light hearted atmosphere. The title is in the bottom right which shows that the audience needs to focus on the main image. Also the title is really good because the first part is smaller then 'The End' which puts exaggeration on the end of something.









The trailer:
This trailer is good because it tells the audience what the story is about. It introduces the main actors in the film and it shows the audience through comedy so even the trailer makes the audience laugh.
