E.T.

Much has changed in special effects since E.T. first appeared in movie theaters. With CGI (Computer Graphic Imaging), images can be manipulated in the film. Visual elements can be added via computer. For example, before CGI, thin wires were used to make characters fly, but they were often noticeable on the film. Now, heavier and safer wires are used to lift the actors, and the wires are later erased using CGI. For the 20th anniversary edition of E.T., Spielberg announced that he will use CGI to replace guns with walkie-talkies. How will this change add unity to the story?
The science fiction movie E.T. uses a lot of special effects. Spielberg, the maker of this movie, announced a plan to replace guns with walkie-talkies in the movie using CGI. This change will add unity to the movie. The scene with guns that will be changed is one in which the boys are escaping with E.T. on their bikes. The police officers trying to head them of are carrying guns. Even though Elliot thinks the authorities are trying to kill E.T. If you listen carefully to the conversation it is clear they are only trying to save him. Since this is the case it is probably very unlikely that they would be willing to shoot him just to keep him from reaching his ship. It is also very unlikely that they would try to shoot E.T. with such a risk of hitting one of the kids. So, in conclusion it is obvious that replacing the walkie-talkies will add unity to the story. It is also obvious through the examples why it will add unity.

You may want to change the title of these blogs, so they are more specific to what you are writing about. Otherwise, people may think you just submitted the same blog more than once, and only read one of them.

Another thing you could do is find a way to creatively combine all three blogs into one, since they are all about the same movie.

I would also suggest putting paragraphs into your blogs, with a space in between each paragraph. This blog, for example, is a large block of text, which makes it difficult to read.

In adding to what sawaboof said, I highly discourage you from posting so many blogs so close to each other. People on this site generally don't like that, and you'll start hurting for read points because people will avoid reading your blogs.
