I chose to use Harry Potter for my media globalization collage. Harry Potter is a popular name around the world, and can be seen many ways in the media. The books are published in many different languages, and fans wait in line for hours anticipating a new arrival. This popular series has also been made in movies by Warner Brothers, with the actors well known for their popular roles. Beyond just books movies, there are many toys and games geared for its fans. You can easily find Harry Potter clothes, costumes, video games, and even food. Harry's round, bottle cap glasses have become a signature icon for the series. Other shows such as The Simpsons, South Park, and Saturday Night Live have used this popular series in some of their episodes, which shows just how popular this obsession has become.
