Once I bought this game and observed the detail and time him and his team went through to transform the Dark Knight character into an icon of video games. The reason why I am drooling over his artwork is the realistic features he adds. For instance, Batman is beating up and you can see scars, bruises, rips in his suit, sweat, blood, and emotion. One of the most sold video game series today are the Call of Duty games, a war game. Those games are realistic, but nothing compared to Hego's work.
His movies have covered many themes and genres, especially science-fiction (“Steven Spielberg”, 2013). Science fiction is one of genre of movie. It is much easier to decide which movies belong to science fiction genre, and which do not, if we have some kind of a definition to go by. Based on book Fiction: The Elements Of The Short Story Gordon and Kuehner (1999: 397) had argued that science fiction, as its name suggest, is rooted in scientific and technological truths or in the possibility of scientific advancements based on what is known. So, from my epilogue i conclude that there is a relation between Steven Spielberg and science fiction.
In this genre, there are few movies which stand out more than Metropolis and Blade Runner. Both films, made over fifty years apart from each other, share plenty of similarities but also, both movies bring to the screen themes that classify them as pure examples of Science Fiction. There are a few main reasons why Metropolis and Blade Runner stand classified as notable examples in the science fiction genre. First of all, both films are set in the future; hence they are entirely dominated with technology. In the openings of the films Metropolis and Blade Runner, the elements of the misc-en-scene contributed to the filmmaker’s vision of the future, which is a very typical aspect in science fiction cinema.
Generations of writers have used him in myriad ways, from sly references to plot-driving elements. "It's amazing, the amount of things Leonardo has wound up popping into over time," Beckman says. "I think that's cool. It speaks to the fact that there's been a public interest in him forever." With a mind that envisioned telescopes, helicopters and submarines centuries before they existed, da Vinci is naturally a favorite source for fantasy and science fiction authors.
How might technological developments affect the way wars are fought? War and technology have always been linked very closely. Indeed, without technology, there would probably have been no war. After all, without technology, if only in the form of sticks and stones, man’s ability to kill his own kind is extremely limited. For instance, the First World War was the trial period of modern weaponry, where as the Second World War saw modern weaponry came of age and become truly devastating.
The war marked a watershed between pre-industrial and industrial warfare. It had aspects of both, but the changes brought on by the industrial revolution meant that tactics and strategies used for many years could no longer be depended upon. For military forces, change could either be direct, by the introduction of more powerful weapons or weapon systems, or indirect, by the building of a national rail system or technological innovations, such as the telegraph, that could be used by the military in time of war. These changes profoundly affected how military forces were deployed, how they communicated, how they were equipped and how they re-acted both strategically and tactically. At the beginning of the Civil War, both sides were equipped with muzzle loading smoothbore muskets, which had an effective range of approximately 73 meters.

This, along with the experiences they gained from the consistence war with the nomads, made the army into a powerful but brutal one.

These advisors mainly helped in the running of the administrations and implementing laws and policies within their own states. The laws and policy proof to be successful which allows the Ch’in state to begin expanding its power to the next door state.
Because the film takes place in modern day Baghdad, it also provides the point of view of soldiers in our own generation—something that may cause the viewer to think about how easily they could be the ones in a country at war. The film is unique in the sense that it is shown from the perspective of a US Army bomb disposal team, which makes it less focused on one “side” fighting another and more about a group of soldiers in hostile territory with no defined enemy. Despite the fact that it differs from many other war movies in this way, there is no lack of physical danger. Bomb disposal is one of the more stressful and extreme jobs in the military, and it is obvious in the film how physically taxing the job can be. Even though the soldiers are in great physical shape, the gear they are given does very little to protect them and is very difficult to wear.
The popularity of guns on the battlefield quickly led to great improvements in the technology. First came the matchlock, which held a slow-burning wick used to ignite the gunpowder. In addition to that, the design of original guns was improved to increase accuracy, portability, range, and reload time. In the 1700’s, guns were extremely popular in any modern army. Britain’s army used the musket to defend their land as well as conquer new.
