Public awareness that there are lots of things wrong with the environment has been growing for some time. This has impacted popular culture in all it's aspects (music, movies, books etc). Here I try to look at these impacts and pick apart some examples in excruciating detail. Among the victims of this vivisection are J.R.R Tolkien, Hayao Miyazaki and James Cameron.
The most obvious similarity between these films is their use of close up, shallow depth of field, nice contrast, indie-movie shots of nature. Mmmm grass head's bobbing in the summer breeze, indie gold, cue the sound of crickets chirpping, nicccce.
