1. Compare and contrast the two texts with reference to the representation of conflict? (8marks)

* The two text are represented by military conflict, one of which had an advertisement showing that you can buy military product. This connotes that you can buy the gear and join. On the same website there was entertainment side where you can play games and have pleasure in playing. There was also a social networking which you can add to talk or became a friend to.

This website is mainly targeted to men than women. Whereas the trailer (Battle LA) is also targeted to women, I think this because not only men like to see action movies but mainly targeted to men. The website can be used worldwide; anyone can use it and watch the aggressive movie whereas in the trailer it says PG13 but a thirty year old won't watch it.
The products that they are advertising are for men, such as violent games and military clothing. There are also dating, and loans for men to look at, whereas the trailer it was showing the violence and action. It was an invasion by the aliens. One of the text does have amateur photography while the other has amateur video and it has videos from the CNN which is an American news is told.
The representative of the Battle LA trailer is the military clothing of the character in the movie and the weapons that they use and the military vehicle and the explosions that happen.
