This teen movie is called 'Easy A'. The genre for this movie is comedy, this allows it to reach to a wider audience as comedy is a well rounded genre which many enjoy. In particular this movie target the female as the main character for this movie is a female character, this instantly indicates a connection between a female audience.The movie revolves around the life of Olive Penderghast (Emma Stone), having her tell the audience how a series of event in her high school life have caused her to be in quiet a few troublesome situation.
Unlike a typical teenage, Emma Stone plays a character which challenges the convention, as Olive isn't part of the popular crowd and being invites to parties. This suggest a relateable link between the female audience, as there are many of the audience out there that actually can't relate to the movie as many of them follow a stereotypical, high school lifestyle, e.g popular, boyfriends, invited to parties. Emma Stone is also known for playing characters which are strong and oblivious to what other think, from this we are able to see that she wants to portray a different image to what has been portrayed in a typical teen movie. But the movie still uses the common settings such as a school and Olive's home, house parties to show her ordinary teen life.

The next movie is called 'Project X', the genre for the movie is comedy again telling how a wider range of audience enjoy the genre. Project X, is targeted towards the male audience as the main characters in the movie are male, but also because the plot of the movie isn't like the typical type where rivalry and gossip are the main issues. The movie is about three friends, Costa, JB and Thomas decided to throw a birthday at their friends house with the aim of gaining popularity. The movie carries on with three of the character, disobeying rules from Thomas parents and with them doing some illegal things. This type of movie would appeal to the male audience as, they get to see three 'unpopular' friends go through extreme measure to create something, and with that the results leave them with a big success. But a damaging success, as they not only manage to throw a party but somehow invite nearly their how entire school as well as finding themselves doing crazy and ridiculous things. The male audience would find this entertaining as they would be laughing at the three characters but also comparing themselves if they was in their situation. The movie focuses on more, drinking, girls, pranks, laughter unlike Easy A which focuses on teen high school life in a school environment.
'The Amazing Spider Man', is a teen movie with sub genre of adventure. The Amazing Spider Man in particular is considered a teen movie as it reverts back to the being when the character Peter Parker was in his teens, only just being his 'spiderman' adventures. The use of adventure and male character dominating the lead role tell us that one of the types of audience the movie wants to appeal for is the male audience, but as Peter Parker encounters love within the movie this also indicates a wanting to appeal to female audience as well. The use of and actual high school setting still suggest the teen side to the movie but the use of city life also suggest another coming of age side to the story, especially as Peter Parker is beginning to find out what he really is.
