Look at this movie poster:
What literary term is being used to grab attention?
a. alliteration
b. pun
c. verbal irony
d. satire
Scroll down for the answer.
__________________
a. is incorrect. There is nothing alliterative in the title. You can make a case for "Some Sagas..." as alliteration, but it is not being used to grab the viewer's attention.
b. is correct - play on the word "suck"
c. is incorrect - there is nobody talking, so we really cannot have verbal irony.
d. is incorrect - this movie is a parody, but parodies and satires often get confused. Satires often poke fun in order to bring awareness to a social issue.
