...1.) Analysis of all characters Belle: A bookish young woman who falls in love with the Beast and finds the kind-hearted human inside him. She is beautiful, deep, intelligent and loves to read. Belle at times can also be stubborn but she is not afraid to speak her mind. She usually wears a blue outfit along with a blue ribbon in her hair. She is"unaware" of her own beauty and made her "a little odd”. Beast: A cold-hearted prince transformed into a beast as punishment for his selfishness, but later warms, with the help of Belle, and ends up being transformed back into a handsome prince as a reward. He was once a selfish, greedy prince because a poor young beggar asked him for shelter for the night, and he refused. The beggar was actually an enchantress and turning him into a monster. After, Beast fell in love with belle and became a good man for he refused to kill Gaston and didn't want to stoop to his level. Gaston: A highly egotistical hunter who vies for Belle's hand in marriage and is determined not to let anyone else win her heart, even if it means killing her true love. He is a big line-ups of good-looking men with deep voices". Gaston is the main villain in the “Beauty and the Beast” movie. He is a sexist, chauvinistic hunter who wants to marry Belle just so he can brag about it and to give him sons that he can mold at his will.

...A Modern Day Allusion The Elizabethan era, once filled with long dresses, courtship and theatre has now transitioned into a time when less clothing is considered better and with some teenagers, dating is a quick as a game of musical chairs, switching partners when the music stops. Teenagers are more interested in social media and texting than interacting with other people. There a two allusions that can be switched into Hamlet to allow it to appeal to a young and modern audience. Updating the term Termagant and Hercules could appeal to a more modern audience. Termagant was originally “a deity erroneously ascribed to Islam by medieval European Christians and represented in early English drama as a violent character.” This original allusion is used to describe a nasty or violent person and in Hamlet is it used in Act III Scene ii, before Hamlet performs his play. It is used in the context of “I would have such a fellow whipped for o'erdoing Termagant. It out-Herods Herod.” Hamlet was telling the actors not to overdo their performance and to not have violent outbursts. Many teenagers would not know what this word meant unless they had to look it up for a project. The word bully would be a better fit for a modern audience, because for years, teenagers and kids have been taught about the definition of a bully and what it means to bully another person. The new line would read as “I would have such a fellow whipped for o’erdoing a bully. It out-Herods Herod“ By making this replacement...

...One thing is without a doubt that after the film discharges, the individuals who love superhero motion pictures however are not into their comic books will definitely go gaga for him and his diversion. Disregard Bug man, X-men, Iron Man, Thanos, Ultron and each other superhero, Deapool will be the new ruler of the screen. Since, it is his first motion picture, you must know him better before hitting the theaters with no learning of him. Deadpool Deadpool is a screw-up of Wonder funnies (I think, I've as of now let you know. Oh no!) with a mouth to be dreaded of. He is silly and snide in the meantime. As a result of his garrulous nature and inclination to break the fourth divider (talking specifically to gathering of people through the camera/film/television), he is known as "Merc with a Mouth". He is known not or power his adversaries to surrender just with the force of his mouth. "I generally overlook (or simply pass out to extra myself the anguish) what Wilson's most deadly weapon is... his mouth! He'll talk rubbish until you surrender or submit suicide." - Domino (Neena Thurman) He is an adored character of wonder that is cherished by everybody. Not just his amusingness is to be faulted here however his method for doing things (while puerile). He knows how to make the best out of any terrible circumstance and doesn't fear anybody. He doesn't segregate and even inspires his adversaries. Relatively few of us know however he adores children and creatures as well. He...

...Running head: WEEK THREE INDIVIDUAL ASSIGNMENT 1 Popular Literature Paper SOC/105 October 10 2012 WEEK THREE INDIVIDUAL ASSIGNMENT 2 The following paper will describe to the reader a brief overview, followed by a little bit about the author, and then explain how this type of popular fiction fits with other literature in the same genre. Comic books of yesterday and today have introduced a lot of new and interesting characters. The character that I selected to right about is the Incredible Hulk. The Incredible Hulk was introduced to the world in a comic book back in 1962. This character, Bruce Banner, was a scientist that was working with atomic weapons when an atomic bomb went off and exposed him to an enormous amount of gamma radiation. When he was exposed to the radiation, it turned him into a savage and extremely strong animal of a human being. Normally when Mr. Banner becomes enraged the Incredible Hulk is exposed and only when the Incredible Hulk calms down does he turn back into Bruce Banner. Although the Hulk's color has varied just a bit over the time that he has existed, the majority of the time he is the favorable and most popular green color. Whenever Bruce Banner turns into the Incredible Hulk, he is then capable of immense strength, minus the brains. Strong emotions such as anger, terror and grief are also triggers for...

...Armero, Rizzalyn M. BSACTECH I. Definitions 1. Condition is a future and uncertain event, upon the happening of which, the effectivity or extinguishment of an obligation (or right) subject to it depends. 2. Civil loss- when a thing disappears in such a way that its existence is unknown; or even if known, it cannot be recovered, whether as a matter of fact or of law. 3. Reciprocal obligations are those which arise from the same cause and in which each party is a debtor and creditor of the other, such that the performance of one is designed to be the equivalent and the condition for the performance of the other. 4. Pure obligation is one which is not subject to any condition and no specific date is mentioned for its fulfilment and is, therefore, immediately demandable. 5. Potestative condition- a condition suspensive in nature and which depends upon the sole will of one of the contracting parties. II. Discussions 1. Illustrate an obligation subject to: a. Suspensive condition- the fulfilment of which will give rise to an obligation (or right). In other words, the demandability of the obligation is suspended until the happening of the uncertain event which constitutes the condition. b. Resolutory condition- the fulfilment of which will extinguish an obligation (or right) already existing. What is the effect of the fulfilment of the condition in a conditional obligation? * Acquisition of rights * Loss of rights 2. If the...

...What does Literacy mean to Alexie? It all started out with a comic book; a superman comic book that opened up three year old Alexie’s eyes to success. Along with learning to read by himself by looking at comic books and trying to associate words with pictures came different struggles, his parent’s not being able to afford great books, spending his whole day trying to learn how to make the words become real to him, and of course the biggest struggle; his peers making fun of him for being smart. For Alexie to go through all of these struggles alone; learning to read and write must mean something more than just scanning through words on a page or writing the alphabet mixed up in different combinations, it must mean something much greater. The first thing that shows that Literacy means something more to Alexie is that it means being sufficiently educated with his writing and reading skills. Alexie’s wild adventure began with opening a comic book back when he was three years old. He had tried to associate the words and the pictures to try to teach him-self how to read. To this day, he cannot recall exactly what the comic book was, but he was indeed successful. After trying to read that comic book, Alexie wanted more, he didn’t want to learn how to read; in his mind, he had to. Alexie’s Father was an avid reader and I believe that Alexie got the idea to teach him-self to read because he wanted to be just like his father. The family was not rich; very far from it, but Alexie’s...

...Reflection #1 Let me just start with saying that high school is completely different from college. I am looking forward to finishing my high school career at SCFCS and I am excited on what comes to this new adventure. I have learned a new couple tricks at the seminar which will be in use for all my subjects, I also have figured out how to do finish all my assignments on time, and last but not the least just some challenges I am trying to overcome. Last week on Thursday on the 3rd of September, a lady from the SCF library came in to talk to the class. I learned a couple things from her. I already knew coming in how citations are very critical in college but I did not know how to cite properly. The staff are experts when it comes to that, they are willing to help us cite properly. Another thing I found very helpful is that we already have $5 dollars in our account that we can use for free printing, I thought that was pretty nice of the school to do that. Mostly I was very intrigued about the Data Base on their website. It is very helpful for any kind of research papers, whether it is English, Science, or even History. The thing that is really cool about the database is that they are ALL reliable sources. I actually already used it a few days ago for my English paper and it definitely saved me a lot of time. Taking 6 subjects all at once equals tons of endless homework. I was pretty stressed out the first week of school because I kept thinking to myself that it is IMPOSSIBLE...

...Goodman to assign Lee to create his own super-group. Lee was thinking in leaving the comic industry, and as so Lee did not have anything to lose when his wife suggesting using stories of his liking - his style / taste. Lee also intended to give these heros a complete humanity, meaning flawed, up until that point heros in general where flawless this idea supposed a change in the entire industry. By creating humane characters, Lee was able to not only pick the audience that the ‘Justice League’ created and was unable to satisfy, but also to expand their original audience by touching into more mature themes. In the midst of this Lee, together with Jack Kirby and Steve Ditko, created the most popular comic book icons so far, including: The Fantastic Four, Hulk, Iron Man, Thor, The X-Men, Daredevil, Doctor Strange, and the single most successful character Spider Man. Lee was able to use all these characters, and put them in a single shared universe, thus creating the avengers. In the following years Stan Lee would continue to increase in popularity, and to pioneer in the comic book spectrum, hosting the first african-american character in comic books to have a serious supporting role. Other issues that were touched upon were the vietnam war, student activism, political elections, etc. This raised Marvel not as a comic book company, but as a group of serious writers in search of their voice. ...

...Marvel Enterprises, Inc. (b) Why was Marvel’s turnaround so successful? Would you characterize that success as a fluke? Or do you view it as sustainable? Why? How? Marvel’s success is definitely not a fluke and its business model is very sustainable. Because Marvel’s new strategy chose to monetize the content library via licensing characters for use with media products. In an era during which mass media is so important in people’s life, only one media tool - publishing is not strong enough to expand Marvel’s influence to consumers. Comic books can only target a very limited market that most is composed of male teenagers and young adults from 13 to 23 years old. It is very difficult to expand this traditional market significantly. After many years development, this market has become matured and very stable. Meanwhile, people are more and more exposed to movies, televisions, and video games, which are very effective to influence people’s consumption behavior than comic books. All these media tools are able to reach more consumer segments than traditional comic-book publishing. Marvel’s potential to develop has increased dramatically when its market has significantly been expanded by broadcast media. Other consumer products, such as toys, work with media products reinforced each other. This market expansion develops not just in a comprehensive manner, but also in an intensive manner. Marvel emphasizes a long-term value in its new management. They plan career for each...
