A common story plot in modern day films portraying Middle Age themes is a damsel in distress being saved by a knight in shining armor. For instance‚ the popular animated children’s movie‚ Shrek‚ follows the story line of Shrek and his partner‚ Donkey‚ going off on a journey in order to save a princess imprisoned in a tall castle tower and guarded by a fire-breathing dragon. The entire plot setting is based roughly around the same time frame as the actual middle ages‚ so the elements of medieval

Music in cartoons has been very prominent since animation became popular. It is used to accomplish many different things in a scene. It can speak for characters that can’t or won’t speak‚ set tempo‚ set the time period‚ be sound effects‚ and make the scene interesting. The use of music in animation has changed over the years‚ but it has always played a prominent part in the success of the film. Tom and Jerry cartoons use music so much‚ that without it the cartoon would be completely different

Classical and modern-day heroes are both two very different things. A classical hero is somebody who slays something to benefit just themselves or others. A modern day hero is somebody that does something to benefit others just because they are kind. They are very different. A classical hero is somebody who slayed something to benefit themselves and others. Most classical heroes fit the hero’s journey. That is the journey that a classical hero takes. They start off in the ordinary world and then

To Kill A Mockingbird is a moving tale about prejudice between all races and people of all ages. The film’s understandable characters help the audience get a true grasp of prejudice in the south. The plot of the film illustrates the malicious power of prejudice and its ability to sometimes overpower what is right. In the film it is shown that prejudice can often cloud a person’s judgment and lead to illogical outcomes. An example of this is the trial of Tom Robinson who is accused of raping Mayella

I strongly disagree with Fowls comments. He believes that Disney is taking over children’s lives and that it reinforces a simplistic and narrow view of life. I do not believe that this is correct. Every little girl wants to be a beautiful princess and every boy‚ a big‚ strong man‚ who fights off the bad guys. These are just dreams though and we want to give our youth something to believe in. I also believe that Disney is only entertainment. If it was half as bad as Fowl has made it out to be‚
