A Language Analysis Blog. Why Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Sucked. April 9, 2015. April 22, 2015. The first in a series of five posts.). Don’t get me wrong, I think Marvel’s. Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Is an entertaining show. But you have to agree that the beginning of season 1 was pretty disappointing. The lowest-rated episode of the series was the second one “0-8-4” and got a 7.2 on IMDB. Fortunately, things had picked up by episode 17 “Turn, Turn, Turn,” with a 9.3 rating on IMDB. May revealing that Fury was m...

For my Text Processing and Analysis final assignment, I decided to create a corpus of BYU’s 100 Hour Board. Brigham Young University’s 100 Hour Board spans two decades, most of which exist in online archives. … Read more. First Day of Class. August 27, 2012. November 11, 2015. Probs Just A Register Thing.

A Language Analysis Blog. Nobody Likes Politics in Their TV. April 10, 2015. April 20, 2015. In the last post. I noticed that episode 17 of. Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Plot Frame – “Wait. What are you saying? Now, there are three main issues that can come up within the plot frame principle: saying too much, saying too little, and giving too much of a purpose. The last one, giving too much of a purpose, is especially an issue in episode 2. The gist of it is that “talking heads” dialogue makes the ...SKYE: We ...

A Language Analysis Blog. The Audience is Smarter Than They Think. April 10, 2015. April 20, 2015. This series of posts begins here. Episode 17 gained a point against episode 2 in the last round. Pulling the score into a tie. But another problem within the plot frame principle is providing the audience with too much information. Fo Dumps – “We all know what that means.”.
