An example of an opinion was shaped by either pre/post-viewing conditions or the conditions of viewing reception. Estimate how much these factors affected what you thought of the movie.
Kick-Ass.
When I watched Kick Ass for the first time, it was at my place, and my friend had brought the film over for us to watch as I had mentioned that I had never seen it before. However, he decided that it would be a good idea to give a (boring) running commentary of the entire film whilst my mother cut the grass outside whilst the windows were open. Because of this, I found the film extremely uninteresting and boring. Most likely because I couldn't even hear what was being said on the screen, and my friend was making all these silly and stupid comments throughout the film. This exact thing also happened with Avengers (with the same friend too, actually).
28 Days Later.
Before watching this film, my mother had previously seen it, and described it as 'boring, and all it's about is a guy wandering around a deserted London on his own.' Therefore, when I watched it for the first time, I was thirteen. Because my mother had commented how ridiculous it was, I decided to watch it on my own, in the dark on a portable DVD player at about 2am around five years ago. The result was me being absolutely terrified, and needing to turn the lights on and turning the volume all the way down so that it didn't affect me so much. The film now, however, is one of my all time favourites, and I think that because I wasn't expecting so much before I actually watched the film, I found it far, far more exciting and interesting.
