Rhetorical Devices In The Movie Walle
In the movie “Wall-E” the main character is two robots, one is called Walle and another one is Eve. Since they barely have the capacity to talk with each other which makes giving a speech impossible, they still can say each other’s name in different tone to express different emotion. Also, they use body language and eye contact to communicate. For example, when Eve finds out she lost the plant, the tone of her voice which calls Wall-E is different from the tone in usual. It shows the different emotion of her. Furthermore, Wall-E use the posture a lot in the film, it illustrates that Wall-E wants to hold Eve’s hand.

In my opinion, the theme of the movie is to unveil the human destruction due to technology that been overused. In is clear

    I like your connection between the movie Wall-E and transcendentalism. Now thinking about it, Disney has created a lot of movies that get to do with Transcendentalism. For example, another movie from Disney that supports the view of transcendentalism is Avatar. In this movie, nature energy flows through all living thing which link with the transcendentalist belief that nature is a source of instruction, nourishment, and enchantment for the soul. Emerson’s quote “The happiest man is the one who learns from nature the lesson of worship. In Avatar, the Omaticaya can communicate with their god through the Tree of voices.…

    In the sixty-fourth paragraph in Tim O'Brien's "On the Rainy River" chapter, the author uses some rhetorical devices such as repetition, fragments, and an allusion to help make his argument more effective. He uses repetition of words like "a crushing sorrow, sorrow like I had never known it before." to show how distressed he was over the fact that his dream to run away to Canada will never come true. Another repetition of words was when he was describing his childhood he kept saying how "I saw a seven-year-old boy... a pair of holstered six-shooters; I saw a twelve-year-old Little League; I saw a sixteen-year-old kid...” (O’Brien). The fact that he is picturing some of his memoires shows that he is wondering if moving to Canada is worth leaving…

    In the graphic novel Mad Max: Fury Road, there are various examples of rhetorical appeals. One example of ethos is when the audience finally learns of Nux’s backstory. We learn that he was a toddler who searched for the fortress after his mother and father died. Unlike other freeloaders who tried to get onto the fortress, the child was a “hard nut to crack” (Miller 12). The emotional appeal to a young orphan impacts the audience greatly. The timing of the graphic novels release is an example of kiaros. By releasing these graphic novels after the release of the summer blockbuster of the same name, the author/director is keeping the audience engaged. People who become fans of the film would talk about the film and the graphic novels for a longer…

    Thirdly the theme stood in very essential place in the movie. The theme told and warned people the potential danger of technology. It showed the possibility of technology how it could harm people physically and mentally. Another part of the theme presented that humans make same mistakes over and over. In previous movies, they made the Jurassic Park and the problem always occurred, but they never learned from their past mistakes. It acknowledges people once more to do the right thing and look back at their faults. Theme passed very important messages to…

    When people hear the word “border” they just think of the typical United States - Mexico border. They do not think about what a border actually is and what it means to some people or some countries. Borders are all around the world. Some are borders to divide people for specific reasons such as: religion, culture, or beliefs and others are there just to separate two different countries. Not only is there borders but there are walls as well. The walls sometimes take a borders place. Walls are also used as a form of separation for some countries just as borders. Borders and walls are more than just cement blocks, wire fences, or tall steel beams that are a universal symbol for a division. They mean so much to some people and represent a lot…

    While Wall-E is a wonderful children's movie and contains great lessons for kids, it also has a myriad of lessons for adults. One of these is the prevailing theme of love and its inconvenience. One thing that strikes the viewer throughout this movie is that the robots seem more human-like than the humans, and the love story between Wall-E and EVE is a perfect example of this paradox.…

    Furthermore, Gloucester redeems himself for all the mistakes he has made in the past. He prepares to commit suicide, “This world I do renounce, and in your sights shake patiently my great affliction off” (4.6.37-38). Gloucester tells us he did not feel the need to kill himself, however this hateful life of his would still wear out. Furthermore, the redemption between Lear and Cordelia states, “When thou dost ask me blessing, I'll kneel down and ask of thee forgiveness” (5.3.11-12) rather than “I am a man more sinned against than sinning” (3.2.59-60). It shows that Lear believes he can be happy in prison without his love Cordelia. He suggest all the prisoners to sing, and to support each other in this hard time. Looking at each other past…

    As mentioned, the stream of consciousness continues throughout this story. Sometimes the protagonist inserts her deep, sharp thoughts in the middle of a paragraph that has little to do with the original conversation. And sometimes she inserts a word that is off-putting, a word that does not match the rest. Although some may argue that this takes readers away from the fictional dream, the case, it seems, is that it corresponds just as well with her random outbursts of thought. The word is often placed in the center of her normal, regular speech. This makes the word choice seem authentic. It does not beg readers to focus on it, but accept the brief change in diction. On page 27, the text reads, “Cleaning women do steal. Not the things the people…
