I thought it was ironic that he chose to have a “blind prophet” try to change the ways of Creon. He had visions of what would come of Creon and finally he decided he must do the correct thing. b. The set that director chose was very simple and to me it gave the play a dreary feel and it gives the viewer the feeling that something bad will happen. I also believe the simple set that was used allowed the focus to be on the characters and the story.
The House of Dies Drear Do you like the thought of ghost living in your house or someone else's house? What about trying to put the pieces together in a abstruseness like Sherlock Homes? If you do you would love the book or movie The House of Dies Drear. I went on a journey trying to find the differences in this amazing novel and star quality movie. I've got to say it wasn't easy trying to figure out which one I liked best, but I got to say I liked the film much more prominent then the novel.
(The Matrix Revolutions) At the moment of its release, audiences were stunned by the Wachowski brothers’ visually mesmerizing presentation of computer graphics of the Matrix trilogy. Scenes throughout the movies, such as the one depicted above, stunned critics and viewers alike for their intricate design and advanced special effects. Yet behind the films’ complex set design and creative actions sequences, the Wachowski brothers had other things in mind apart from the artistry of their films. Through the movies, the Wachowski brothers presented questions that have been asked for centuries by mankind’s deepest thinkers: How does humanity define its reality? What is the driving force of all the interactions between human beings?
Sun bingo advert - English rant I was thinking, what makes me hate adverts so much? Is it their annoyingness? Is it their stupidity? Or is it their not-so-funny humour? Adverts are something that everyone wants to escape from which is why I adore the BBC; I can watch a movie without having to listen to annoying jingles in between that make me forget what happened in the movie before the break.
Shavon Roberts April 26, 2015 Dr. Strangelove/Fail-Safe Assignment Comparison and Contrast of Dr. Strangelove & Fail-Safe Deciding between two things is an everyday issue, and we usually end up making a decision upon what is the best offer or outcome for us. In this case, I am considering the similarities and the differences between two movies, which are Dr. Strangelove and Fail-Safe. Dr. Strangelove is an exaggerated sarcastic comedy while Fail-Safe is a severe drama. In this paper, I explained that although the two films are similar, they are also different. I do this by comparing the characters of the film.
With technology that runs the life’s of millions, and the constant need to obtain anything and everything without a price, Lao-Tzu would hang his head in shock at the life we have grown so quick to know. There are places in the government and in the life of today that Lao-Tzu would think inadequate for living; however, we must look at what in our life meets his guidelines as well. Modern American society is not perfect. The ways of the world have changed since 6th century BC and life has become much more complicated all the while striving to make things simpler. The way technology has driven the last half of a century has changed life astronomically.
Richard Wright’s criticism is right in the ballpark and I completely agree with it. In this book there was no central theme or idea, not one considerable humanistic thought or implication. This book did contain some good situations to learn from but nothing that persuades or changes the reader’s view, let alone life. A good fictional book has all of these qualities and more, something to make the reader doubt what they knew before, to make them question human thought and behavior and to make them learn or believe in a cause pointed out in that book. This is a fun dramatic story that lets the audience laugh and cry with Janie and her friends, but fails to deliver in the way of explaining the characters actions through the analysis of human nature.
Without any strong feelings ,without some thought that usually good movies leave in your mind after you watch them. Of course there is some meaning in that movie and I think it is just about how to forgive somebody, how not to judge the book just by it cover. According to "Jump Cut" a review of
Being Bored is Everything Creative By: Boredom is a phenomenon that we are all too familiar with. Even when inundated by the numerous grabs at our attention by way of flashing lights, vibrations and insistent beeping we are still prone to boredom. In Scott Adams article "The Heady Thrill of Having Nothing to Do" he cites that "Experts say our brains need boredom so we can process thoughts and be creative." Our attention is constantly fought over on a battlefield of sensory overload and it is a very real and well documented belief that there is no more 'down time' in which our brains can adequately process all the stimuli it takes in. Being busy is a new status symbol; in stifling our ability to mentally breath we continue to cruise without ever taking in everything around us.
Jane Mukala Professor Hart ENG 101 March 18, 2015 Does The Internet Make You Dumber? Nicholas Carr argues that the internet has bad effects on the brain. He says that the internet makes it harder to remember anything, and that it is harder to move memories into long term memories. Carr thinks that by skimming information, it will diminish the ability to read long texts; I disagree with him because the internet makes actually makes us smarter and think accurate because we are aware of every little information around us. Carr thinks that excessive use of the internet might cause permanent changes to the way our brains work and we don’t have to remember as much, because we have RAM (Random Access Memory).
