The Article, To kill a Monopoly Board was written by Steve Tuttle of Newsweek. The article is about the changes, the game of monopoly has had over the years. The author starts off to tell that he used to make legal contracts with his brother, so that he could swindle things from him, if he quit the game early. Because as we all know, the game of monopoly is ridiculously long. Monopoly has been made into digital form and can be played as a computer game, and can be played on the i-phone, and recently the i-pad which creates a more realistic feeling. The newest transformation the game is going through is a movie. That's right, monopoly the movie.
I chose this article because, when I was little I loved monopoly, and unlike the author, I loved the themed versions, like the Pedagree version, the barbie version, and the Bibleopoly, which I played in Sunday School. The article was well written, but it was kind of funny to me that it would be featured in Newsweek, because it wasn't a review of either the movie or the game... It was just kind of there.
