Music- The music fits into the film really well, because it is a lot of Mysterious and intense music that makes you wonder what is going to happen next. It keeps you into the movie and doesn't let you get distracted. Pacing and Organization- This movie flows very well for the most part, they do not go to fast or too slow. Writing- The story and the plot and the dialogue is very intense the beginning of the movie Summary- The joker is trying to take over Gotham with his villains and it’s up to Bruce Wayne (Batman) to stop him. Opinion- In my opionion this was a intense but good movie.
But the movie of The Big Sleep is still a success and, well, a good movie, just because they changed the plot and the characters. One The Big Sleep is appropriate for the audience of books, the other for the audience of
10.March.2012 Should Batman Kill the Joker? After reading the Argument “Should Batman Kill the Joker?” it is not a surprise to me that the question was not answered. I feel like the author’s Mark D. White and Robert Arp did not give a final answer because the answer is different to everyone. When I first ready the title I was thinking of course Batman should kill the Joker, the world would be a better place and less people would die in the hands of the Joker. I didn’t think that if Batman killed the Joker he would be wrong to and if would basically be the same as vigilantes, taking the law into their own hands.
Changez’ continual determination shows us that he is never accepted by those around him. Hence he must continually prove himself in order to feel accepted even though he is an outcast. Before the events of 9/11 the narrator states that Changez “was never an American, but I was instantly a New Yorker.” Initially Changez feels comfortable in New York, a very multicultural place, yet as a result of September 11, New York loses its identity and independence and becomes a part of America again, and with it Changez loses his sense of belonging. Furthermore, through one of Changez’ epiphanies it is made clear that he is in no way similar to his American colleagues. “I felt at that moment much closer to the Filipino driver than to him.” It is through this epiphany the author demonstrates that Changez has never really been adopted as an American.
A broader interest in exploring psychological motivation also found its niche in US film and was visually and narratively distinct from that of the 1930’s. Drawing on the outlaws of America’s Wild West, the private eye was a lone, moral hero on the mean streets of America. The urban new reality of the 1940’s gave rise to the hard-boiled detective and a new symbolic landscape for American crime fiction. Warner Bros. had previously made versions of Dashiell Hammett’s The Maltese Falcon in 1931; however it was remade for the third time in 1941 as part of this new trend in the treatment of crime. Neither of the previous films had attempted to capture the full impact of the novel’s bleak and uncompromising version of urban America or the unheroic aspects of its hero.
Another reason this novel is well written is because it’s comedic. It’s funny and entertaining. Not everything in this novel is a joke, but the way the main character, Violet, explains her thoughts and thinks about everyday happenings is very entertaining and could probably make lots of people chuckle. Books with a hint of comedy are slightly hard to come by. It’s easy to find a cheesy book that is so cheesy it isn’t even funny and books that are so serious that you could read the entire novel cover to cover without a single facial expression.
During the events of Batman: Year One, Batman recalls all the things that work for being a great crime-fighter. After months of analyzing shipping data, Batman deduces the identity of the man at the top of the drug market in Gotham, a man named Berlanti. After breaking up a shipment and sending the police all the evidence they need to arrest and convict Berlanti, Batman feels on top of the world (Alfred notes that he is smiling for the first time in costume). Commenting to himself that Gotham seems "quiet" and more peaceful, Batman is confident and happy that his efforts to apply reason and logic to fighting crime have been so successful. As a personal reward, he (as Bruce Wayne) manages to get an art exhibit held over for an extra day so he
Both of these men are mortal yet are symbols of war and great power. These two men contribute a lot to their hometown. Bruce Wayne was not born a superhero nor was Odysseus. So how is it then that both of them are mortal, yet can be identified as godlike figures? In terms of their stories they may be completely human, but much like Odysseus their actions are not human like.
Batman is a kindred soul but he is not someone you would like to share a drink with. Batman is a fighter at his core with whom many of us can associate. This is probably what makes this character most endearing. There were several writers of Batman over the years; some were excellent but some failed to catch the essence of Batman character. Even catwoman doesn’t suit his character.
When trying to show thousands of warriors and thousands of ships, some of them would be computer generated, but it looked like all the sets had been built, which gave the movie a very authentic feel. The dialogues were kept to a minimum extent and the expressions from the artists were somewhat real especially, Achilles, Hector and Briseis. It was a bit longer and easily could have been edited down by 15-20 minutes. Overall, the movie Troy was entertaining; the acting was reliable for the most part and the action sequences were amusing. The movie Troy had some changes from the poem The Iliad but those changes did not necessarily alter the major idea conveyed by both the movie and the poem.
