The author shows the cinema against the backdrop of changes taking place in today's audiovisual landscape by means of digital media. A movie is not treated as a separate phenomenon but as an element of a bigger entertainment system. Individual audiovisual media take over each other's aesthetics to facilitate dialogue with the viewer who also uses other communication media. This is best illustrated on the example of the relationship between the cinema and video games that originally 'sponged off' the cinema to recently come to inspire them. He examines the film category of 'movie ride', the pictures using movement in a motion picture to produce a viewer's immersion (strongly associated with computer games) or even thematizing immersions. So the relations between old and new media are not discussed in terms of competition but of complementarity and creative tensions to enhance the means of expression of sub-elements of the communication ecosystem. As shown by the author, the cinema may be the starting point for the development of new cross-media narrative practices that meet halfway the expectations of viewers oriented towards the active reception of the media.

There is a permanent problematic relationship between the sport as a game, entertainment or training, and philosophy conceived as the care of oneself or self-knowledge: It can lead us away from, or, on the contrary, closer to answering the question: “Who we are?” This problematic relationship is exemplified by present-day sport which achieves two patterns: the form of fight on one hand and the form of a means of mass communication on the other. The critique of the sport as an alienating activity will not be of our concern. We will rather ask the question of the pattern of the constitution of our present.

Audiovisual culture is nowadays one of the most popular fields of the cultural expressions. The film industry holds very powerful instrument to address the lives of the people all around the globe and to bring them education, entertainment and information on the one hand, but also the expressions of the national cultural heritage, values and new ideas on the other hand as well. This unlimited cross-border 'movementt' of the audiovisual products that are also protected by copyright brings the legal science and the legal practice as well as the various types of questions, issues and queries that should be address and solved in order to secure the legal distribution and using of the films, audiovisual recordings and other potential protected (audiovisual) works. Other priority of the legal science in the field of the audiovisual creation can be found in the relationships inside the filmmaking process, it means the rights and relationships between the authors (the director, screenplay author(s), cameramen, performing artists etc.) and the producers (studios), especially in the connection with the further distribution of the film and the protection of the investments in the whole process. Presented study should be the 'invitation' for the further scientific discussion on the above mentioned issues. The study brings the historical comparison of the development of the basic institutes of the 'film law' and the deliberation on the main possibilities of the legal structuring of the rights and relationships inside the - what we call - audiovisual work.

Media information manipulation in the present days has lost its features of an extraordinary, extremely non-ethical and mainly inacceptable banned mean. Information manipulation has been used everywhere where there are for a particular subject no reasons, opportunities, possibilities and means from the view of its particular (utilitarian) interests to purposely influence attitudes, opinions, motivation and behaviour of individuals and social groups. To conclude and to do it gently, it is to be called the manipulation with the public opinion. When examining particular aspects of this issue it is impossible to rely upon the terminology which would be sufficiently complex, in Slovak conditions stable and generally accepted. This fact causes it is impossible to start examining particular problems, as before doing so it is necessary to explain and define the basic points and draw the line of a possible effective approach. The effect of manipulation is the change of an existing or creation of a new evaluating viewpoint and relation of the recipient to something definite what influences (manipulates) its future actions, behaviour, opinions and attitudes. The viewpoint from the aspect of basic information and communication knowledge theory is crucial: if some of the real information systems reach the dominant mass media position and are used as the source of prevailing inadequate or redundant information, logically, instead of processes deepening the composition of information system - such as human consciousness (shaping and development of personality, its autonomy and integrity), it initiates the growth of entropy in mind. It is true that each piece of inadequate information, which is 'pressed' on the structure of system, changes it as a whole and from the human viewpoint devalues the system as it weakens its ability to regenerate. Positive, full-value informedness can be achieved only through the exchange of adequate and additive information.
