Some people think watching movies is a waste of time. Do you agree or disagree?

Some sections of society argue that spending time on movies is a futile activity. I completely disagree with the given statement. This essay will outline the following reason for my disagreement. Firstly, movies provide the backdrop for a fertile and creative mind and secondly it is the nursery for imagination.

 

We all need a setting to help us cultivate our inventiveness and there’s nothing better than the movies which provides this in ample quantity. This environment of make believe is the perfect Utopia than enables a productive mind to see beyond the horizons of contemporary possibilities and breaks the boundaries to go further and further. For example, the movie Avatar is a classic example of the possibilities of human imaginative fancy. The detail which created such an illusion that it left movie goes with the belief that a parallel life of such magnitude and dimensions can exist.

 

Furthermore, the cinema as we know is the nursery for humans to see beyond the realm of current opportunities. The movies give us that window and to the world that we can create and the world that is largely quite possible. It sows the seeds of abandon and freedom and this couple together enables the mind to visually create the next big engineering or technological feat. To illustrate this, many decades ago, special effects were limited to human potential, but these days special effects is a product of the sum of human potential, technology and most importantly imagination.

 

In conclusion, the experience of the movies and cinema is nothing short of an educational voyage that meanders and flirts with reality and illusion. This combination fuels the next reality and so on. I strongly reiterate my point that watching movies should be constituted as a part of productive activity and must be a part of the mix of academic and social pursuits.
