What is it about?
Our article discusses using pop culture materials for GELT. We elaborate that tele-cinematic representations are a helpful method for the GELT paradigm for ESL/EFL learners. We include several global representations of the above as a means to expand the GELT paradigm.

Why is it important?
Our article is relevant as we believe the future of English language teaching is beyond that of the standard UK -US English dominated texts and teaching materials. We discuss moving beyond grammaticality to be more inclusive.
Perspectives
I personally hope that this paper inspires ELT practitioners to shift their focus away from grammar prescriptivism and a monolythic view of the English language.
