Poetry in pop culture

This is a video of a video game doing a poem using Machinima http://www.machinima.com/film/view&id=36796
this is interesting because like the example in class, it is a voice over of a video game. It is also interesting because it is an example of how poetry has had to step up its game to be able to attract a new audience in the age of technology and this is one way in which it is doing this.


And then on this link below, there is examples of the implementation of different famous pieces of poetry put into movies. This is cool because there are some pretty famous movies in this list that snuck in a few lines of poetry.
