classic satirical novel by Jonathan Swift. Jack Black stars as
Lemuel Gulliver, a lowly mailroom worker who spontaneously

whirlwind assignment to Bermuda and en route is washed ashore on
the hidden island of Lilliput. Initially captured and enslaved by
the island's diminutive and industrious population of Lilliputians,
he eventually manages to win them over with his questionable charms
and is eventually declared their hero. The supporting cast includes

Comedy starring Steve Martin, Jack Black and Owen Wilson as three
men in different stages of life competing to become champion
birdwatchers. Stu (Martin) is a successful business executive on
the brink of retirement. Brad (Black), the youngest of the three,
works as a computer programmer but lacks direction and focus in his
life. Meanwhile, the obsessive and unscrupulous Kenny (Wilson) will
stop at nothing to hold onto his title of World's Greatest Birder.
As they travel the length and breadth of North America as
participants of the 'Big Year' competition, in which birders
compete to spot the greatest number of bird species in the United
States over the course of one year, the three men discover as much
about themselves and each other as they do about America's bird
population.

racialisation through Lacanian theory; 2. Black expands the

subject; 3. Offers a uniquely interdisciplinary approach, the
volume includes applied examples from politics, philosophy and

In what ways is comedy subversive? This vital new book critically
considers the importance of comedy in challenging and redefining
our relations to race and racism through the lens of political
correctness. By viewing comedy as both a constitutive feature of
social interaction and as a necessary requirement in the appraisal
of what is often deemed to be 'politically correct', this book
provides an innovative and multidisciplinary approach to the study
of comedy and popular culture. In doing so, it engages with the
social and cultural tensions inherent to our understandings of
political correctness, arguing that comedy can subversively
redefine our approach to 'PC Debates', contestations surrounding
free speech and the popular portrayal of political correctness in
the media and society. Aided by the work of both Slavoj Zizek and
Alenka Zupancic, this unique analysis adopts a
psychoanalytic/philosophical framework to explore issues of race,
racism and political correctness in the widely acclaimed BBC
'mockumentary', The Office (UK), as well as a variety of television
comedies. Drawing from psychoanalysis, social psychology and
philosophy, this book will be highly relevant for postgraduate
students and academic researchers studying comedy, race/racism,
multiculturalism, political correctness and television/film.
Uses both a theorical and evidence-based approach. Provides a
series of vibrant contributions to the debate regarding the role
and purpose of physical activity in dealing with moral, social, and
ecological catastrophes.

Double-bill of animated movies about a gang of prehistoric animals
who become close friends. In 'Ice Age' (2002), the story begins at
the dawn of the great ice age, when a group of three animals embark
upon an epic journey. Sid the sloth, Manfred the mammal, and Diego
the sabre-toothed tiger team up to help return a human baby to its
father, and must risk life and limb as they traverse boiling lava
pits and travel through dangerous ice caves to complete their
mission. Along the way they also meet Scrat, a squirrel-rat
determined to plant an acorn in a glacier. The film features the
voices of John Leguizamo, Denis Leary and Jack Black. In 'Ice Age 2
- The Meltdown' (2006), Manny the woolly mammoth (voice of Ray
Romano), Sid the sloth (Leguizamo), Diego the saber-toothed tiger
(Leary), and the hapless prehistoric squirrel/rat known as Scrat
(Chris Wedge) are back in this sequel to the popular 2002 film.
Manny is ready to start a family, but nobody has seen another
mammoth for a long time. In fact, Manny thinks he may be the last
one. That is until he miraculously finds Ellie (Queen Latifah), the
only female mammoth left in the world. The only problem being that
they can't stand each other. Ellie comes with some excess baggage
in the form of her two possum friends, Crash (Seann William Scott)
and Eddie (Josh Peck), a couple of daredevil pranksters and cocky,
loud-mouthed troublemakers. When a huge glacial dam holding off
oceans of water is about to break, threatening the entire valley,
the only chance of survival lies at the other end of the valley. So
our three heroes, along with Ellie, Crash and Eddie, form the most
unlikely family as they embark on a mission across an
ever-changing, increasingly dangerous landscape.
An amazing autobiography of a criminal from a forgotten time in
american history. Jack Black was a burgler, safe-cracker,
