V for Vandetta 2005
-V: Beneath this mask there is more than flesh. Beneath this mask there is an idea, Mr. Creedy, and ideas are bulletproof.
-V: ...A building is a symbol, as is the act of destroying it. Symbols are given power by people. Alone, a symbol is meaningless, but with enough people, blowing up a building can change the world.
- Evey Hammond: No one will ever forget that night and what it meant for this country. But I will never forget the man and what he meant to me.

500 Days of Summer 2009
-Rachel Hansen: Just because she likes the same bizzaro crap you do doesn't mean she's your soul mate.
-Vance: Roses are red, violets are blue... Fuck you, whore!
-Rachel Hansen: Look, I know you think she was the one, but I don't. Now, I think you're just remembering the good stuff. Next time you look back, I, uh, I really think you should look again.
-Tom: Either she's an evil, emotionless, miserable human being, or... she's a robot.

Kick Ass 2010
-Dave Lizewski: In the world I lived in, heroes only existed in comic books. And I guess that'd be okay, if bad guys were make-believe too, but they're not.
-Dave Lizewski: With no power, comes no responsibility. Except, *that* wasn't true.
-Huge Goon: Fuck this shit, I'm getting the bazooka!

    One of the main characters in “V for Vendetta” is V. He is a mysterious, vigilante, freedom fighter, and a terrorist who is easily recognized by his Guy Fawkes mask, long hair, and dark clothing. He is a person permeated by an idea that the country they are living in is sick and that it is his duty to save the country and fulfill the idea. He was permeated by this idea after his experience at Larkhill where he underwent medical testing and saw that his country was up to. The costume V is wearing is mainly black and could possibly symbolize his dark site because V is no ordinary hero and the dark outfit underlines these two sites of him. Furthermore, V also wears a bright and white mask, which could symbolize that he also has some good in him. Additionally, the mask V is wearing is a Guy Fawkes mask, which underlines the idea he is permeated by. The mask shows us that he has the same idea as Guy Fawkes, which is to take the government down.…

    In the beginning, Jake appears to be totally disconnected and alienated from the natural environment. He can't relax because he is afraid of it and views it as something dangerous that needs to be tamed by humans. When he starts living with the Na'vi and is taught their ways, he has difficulty assimilating. As Neytiri points out in their first encounter, Jake's alienation from nature makes him "ignorant like a child" (Avatar) and unable to appreciate and live in the natural environment. However, he slowly changes and finally becomes part of nature's network. The change starts from the outside and slowly moves to the inside. He first changes on the surface, that is a change of the body, but soon Jake feels an internal confusion. He is not sure in which world he belongs and who he really is. He admits that he can barely remember his old life and that the Na'vi's world seems more authentic. He finally realizes the energy that exists in nature and learns to appreciate every living organism. He admits that he has fallen in love with the forest and with the Na'vi's way of living. He even reaches to the point of fighting against humans to protect Pandora's natural environment and the Na'vi's way of life. Jake is transformed from a contemporary individual…

    Tim Winton Biography

    The horizon fades. Everything looks impossibly far off. In two hours I’ll hear Biggie and Meg in his sleeping bag and she’ll cry out like a bird and become so beautiful, so desirable in the total dark that I’ll begin to cry. In a week Biggie and Meg will blow me off in Broome and I’ll be on the bus south for a second chance at the exams. In a year Biggie will be dead in a mining accident in the Pilbara and I’ll be reading Robert Louis Stevenson at this funeral while his relatives shuffle and mutter with contempt. Meg won’t show. I’ll grow up and have a family of my own and see Briony Nevis, tired and lined in a supermarket queue, and wonder what all the fuss was about. And one night I’ll turn on the TV to discover the fact that Tony Macoli, the little man with the nose that could sniff round corner, is Australia’s richest merchant banker. All of it unimaginable. Right now, standing with Biggie on the salt lake at sunset, each of us still in our southern-boy uniform of boots, jeans and flannel shirt, I don’t care what happens beyond this moment. In the hot northern dusk, the world suddenly gets big around us, so big we just give in and…

    “Not in the sky full of orbiting spy-eyes and weaponry, but in the earth we have looked down upon. Not from above, but from below. Not in the light that blinds, but in the dark that nourishes, where human beings grow human souls,” as spoken by Le Guin reminded the audience that the future is in their own hands.…

    Examples Of Outlaw Heroes

    Heroes are noteworthy parts of history, they stick out and most people if anything can remember the main hero of a story. Especially in today's society, where heroes and heroism can be displayed vividly. In television shows like breaking bad, movies like star wars, or even television news, heroes are often central characters. Some would argue the very idea of a hero is self-interpretive and have debunked official heroes (such as fireman) as just doing their jobs. Yet these heroes, in the face of adversity manage to display courage, bravery and action for a greater good, this allows them such a classification. Authors such as Robert B.Ray,Heather Havrilesky,Tim Layden’s will agree that heroes do exist and have analyzed many of the labels heroes…

    A hero can be real or fictional but either way a hero goes through the same stages and has choices to make to help others at whatever cost. Someone may not seem like they could be a hero but by doing what they can, could help make a huge difference in someone’s life. Being a hero is not always what movies and comic books make it out to be; a hero can be a regular person being generous. Making the right choices and decisions is what helps shape a person to be a hero; they don’t become one just for the fame.…

    Hero vs Villian

    • 321 Words
    • 2 Pages

    The Punisher, Robin Hood, Batman, and Superman are some of the characters that we stereotypically constitute as heroes. They are known to fight with courage without fear of death. They destroy the enemy within a blink of an eye. They fight using their own body strength, superpower, or some kind of weapon. They come to the rescue miraculously and leave without a trace. They are mysterious. We are unable to identify who they are underneath the masks and disguises. Yet, we praise them and ignore the real heroes that surround us regularly, ordinarily. “All of us …like to believe that in a moral emergency we will behave like the heroes of our youth, bravely and forthrightly, without thought of personal loss or discredit”. In other words, we are quite oblivious to the ordinary people of the world that are, in fact, the true heroes.…

    The film I chose to evaluate is the fantasy action film, “300.” 300 is a fictional retelling of the Battle of Thermopylae, in which the Greeks tried to hold off an invasion of the Persian Empire. The author’s message, from a leadership perspective, shows what a group of soldier would do for their king and how they inspire a country. A number of scenes from the film will depict that King Leonidas is a great leader with great conviction for what he believes in.…
