My top three media are video games, movies and television, i have chosen these three because they interest me the most out of all the main types of media. The first one video games is the one that i am the most familiar with because i have been playing video games most of my life because they are a good way to past the time compared to something like radio which i never really listen to unless i am in the car.
Video games have become extremely popular over the last couple of years because of the popularity of certain genres, the ones that have stood out over the whole video games lifespan are RPGs (role playing game) for example Dragon age and first and third person shooters for example call of duty. My preferred genre would be first person shooters with my favourite being Halo because it was my introduction to first person shooters and In my opinion my favourite video game series.
Movies are my second choice for types of media because with video games i was introduced to them at a younger age while with movies they will a little bit later on. Like video games movies also have genres with certain people like genres that some other people would dislike this can be with any genre but it seems more common with the genres like horror where it is very split those who love horror films and those who dislike them and think they are a waste of time. My personal favourite genres would be Horror for example the 2009 remake of the slasher Friday the 13th and action/adventure films for example Marvels Avengers Infinity War, the 2009 remake of Friday the 13th was a film i will remember because of how it changed form the original Friday the 13th films changing the killer Jason Voorhees from a slow lumbering killer to a killer who is not afraid of chasing down his victims if the need arises. This also introduced more realistic and brutal gore to the film which fans of the series would normally not use to the gore in the old films was easily seen as special effects or makeup which in my opinion was a good idea for a more modern reboot.
Finally my final type of media is television which people see as very similar to movies however it is still very different in its own way, even though once again genre is a key theme in television shows, one of the most popular TV show would be The Walking Dead which has been going since 2010 which was based off of a comic book series written by Robert Kirkman the appeal of the show is it gives the idea of what if a zombie apocalypse was real but obvious alters it to have a set of main characters who's survival technqiues might not work in real life but is a perfect fit for the show. The shows main genre is obviously horror so it would not appeal to everyone but the people who do like horror it is one of the best tv shows to watch out of the many options you can pick from.
