Lesson 6: Film website webquest

Lesson 6: Film website webquest

In this lesson, we take you on a tour of some popular websites that are all about film. We set you some questions and challenges and you have to come back to the comments section and tell us what you discovered.

 
In lesson three, one of our tips for using films to improve your English was to become a film buff or expert. In this lesson, we are going to show you five websites that will help you become more knowledgeable about film and help your English at the same time. After reading about the website, we have a webquest for you. Do the quiz at the bottom of the page and find the answers on these five websites. When you have finished, come back and tell us which of the websites you like best.

Website 1

Rotten Tomatoes

Rotten Tomatoes is a film review website. You can find tens of thousands of film reviews here. It’s a great website to visit when you are deciding what film to watch. You can find out who is in the film, what type of film it is and most importantly what other people thought about the film.

Interesting fact: Rotten tomatoes used to be thrown at actors by the audience if a performance had been bad!

Website 2

ISL Collective

ISLCollective is a website that focuses on English language learning and film. There are hundreds of film clips and each one has interactive learning activities to help you with your English.

Website 3

Trailer Addict

Trailer addict is a website where you can find thousands of trailers (those film clips that are used to advertise and promote movies). Watching trailers can be a great way to practise your English, especially if you don’t want to watch a full film. Alternatively, you can use the website to decide which film to watch at the cinema or at home.

Website 4

IMDb

IMDB.com is another film review website. There are thousands of reviews from professional film critics and the general audience. You can find out more about the film, watch trailers and you can even add your own review.

Website 5

Learn English Teens

Learn English Teens from the British Council has a dedicated section to film in the UK. Watch a video with Kate Winslet or a film clip from a zombie flick! All of the videos come with interactive activities and a discussion page to share your opinions.

I prefer ISL Collective because I can lessen to trailer and make a Quiz about my understand to this trailer, I think the different sites are good for different things. All of them do probably have pros and cons of their own.
