I think with the passing time and the increase of more and more television viewing over the years our culture loses some things‚ and while I do not think that all television programming

How hard it is to remember for that short period of time that the light switch will not produce instant light‚ the hair dryer will not immediately blow dry our hair‚ or that we can’t even run water into our homes.

    I strongly agree with the statement “there is no literature without conflict”. It applies well to the play Antigone by Jean Anouilh. The most significant conflict exists between Antigone and Creon the king. Despite this major conflict‚ there is also another minor conflict between Antigone and Ismene. Conflicts do not have to be between two people. A good example would be whether or not to obey the law‚ when Antigone decides whether she should take the risk and try to bury her deceased brothers.

    Dead Snow 2: Red vs. Dead (2014) Director Tommy Wirkola also directed “Dead Snow” which should serve as the leader in the category of Nazi Zombie movie. “Dead Snow 2: Red vs. Dead” picks up the story immediately after the events in the first film. Fans of the earlier film will surly enjoy the sequel. The mood in the two films however I found quite different. “Dead Snow” is very traditional with straight up Zombie disaster elements‚ moody and terrifying with a few humorous elements. “Dead
