Moylan and Williams

Repetitions: negative, popular, crucial
Binary: film and literature

In both pieces, Moylan and Williams talk about dystopias. In his work, Moylan writes only about dystopia in literature.  Williams, however, focuses on dystopian films.  Both authors'  writing give off a negative vibe.  The word "negative" itself is repeated throughout both pieces, which brings a pessimistic tone to each work.  Both authors also repeat and focus on popularity.  This could sway the reader's opinion and possibly make him or her view popular literature as a negative thing.
