Videos come in many frames, sometimes they are cute, sometimes they are sad and sometimes include a happy ending. However, they all involve a certain themes and purposes. For example, some for advertising and some are just comedies to give people fun. The link i provede above is find in youku, which is similar to youtube. The video is funny and just for celebrate the valentine's day.
The video is not similar to the video that the writer writes in the reading. It is just state a common theme in a very funny story.
The roles in the video are very funny, they are two beans. First the boy bean shoot a cuke and succeed, and then is the girl bean's turn. Unfortunely, she failed and lost her temper. So the boy bean took the cuke closer to the girl bean, but she fail again. And the boy bean moved more closer,closer... finally, in order to make the girl happy, he acts as a target to get the girl's shoot. It acts in a very funny way, we laugh when we watch it. However, when we finish love, we start to think a very important thing. That is love. It is love that makes the biy bean willing to be the target. And love always goes with give. At the end of the video, the appear a sentence in chinese, while translated into English, it says, if you are together, everyday is Volentine's day. It is very common sentence but can make us think deeply.
Video is such a thing that can affect in its own way. Maybe we even not realize, but itit true.so

  1. Good job Lin, I like this video. (I like Youku.com too.) I think it would be interesting to talk more about the cultural knowledge you need to understand this video--how do you know which bean is a boy and which is a girl, for example. Why does this cartoon of beans make people think of people and their romantic relationships? You have a good start on talking about this and I think you could do more.
