• 
  

• From the peer review I gathered that our movie idea isn’t awful and people do in fact enjoy it. When asking a group of kids our age they stated that the idea was interesting, the comedy is what made the idea different according to them. 

• In the questionnaire we found that people still have a small interest for boxing movies as long as it has an interesting idea. We found that boxing isn’t totally outdated and has an audience, albeit a bit of a niche audience. 

5. 
   

When seeing other boxing movies, particularly in Big George Foreman, we saw that they share a lot of things. From themes of courage and strength to the slow motion shots of the boxers.

5. Reflection: (Individual) 

 

      For this assignment, our production company, Iron Maiden Productions and I chose Big George Foreman as our movie to research. It’s a boxing film, the opening is nice and short, the opening is actually a good opening, and it relates to our movie and the struggles about living and moving forward. It’ll relate to our boxing movie called “Champion”
