Rhetoric on Youtube

This week's extra credit was an interesting way to review rhetoric. The first video is a student from the Univ of Arizona creating a children's video with puppets to describe using rhetoric to stay up late or eat more candy. He gave examples for ethos pathos and logos in both scenarios.

The second video shows clips from films that used rhetoric. Men in Black could be a combo of logos and ethos when he shoots the girl. The Breakfast Club might be a combo of ethos and pathos. In Monty Python the crowd uses logos to see if they can burn a witch. Finally in Monsters Inc uses pathos.
