X-Men: Days of Future Past Imagine fighting against robots who are slowly eliminating your species, and the only way to stop them is time traveling into the past to interfere with an assassination that occurred. That situation is what takes place in X-Men: Days of Future Past. X-Men: Days of Future Past, was created in three different forms, a comic book, cartoon, and a movie. Each form includes the same reasoning for going into the past to save the future. Although they have a similarity for the reason going into the past to change the future, the differences between the comic book, cartoon, and the movie are striking. Even though the comic book, cartoon, and movie is all on X-Men: Days of Future Past, they each include different characters between them. Each form has the basic characters, Storm, Professor Xavier, Wolverine, Mystique, and the Sentinels. Although, each version has one or two …show more content…
In the beginning of X-Men: Days of Future Past, the setting in all forms take place in the future. They all have Sentinels controlling mutants, but they have different scenarios in the start of each form. For instance, in the comic book, the setting was in New York, but Kitty, one of the mutants on the X-Men Team, is freely walking around and then reports back to the mutant camp. Where she then sees the remaining X-Men. In the cartoon however, it starts out as some of the X-Men fighting robots. After they defeat the robots, one of the mutants named, Bishop, take them back to camp against their will. Bishop is a mutant catcher, who catches mutants who escape, and returns them back to camp. In contrast to the comic book and the cartoon, the movie starts out very different. In the movie, it starts out in the X-Men hiding place. They are anxiously waiting for the sentinels to find them. To sum up, X-Men: Days of Future Past have three versions, but they all have different starts to the

    Taken Movie Comparison

    Before going to the theater with friends or family for a great action packed thriller, I may think twice before buying a ticket to see Taken. Taken, written by Luc Besson, and directed by Pierre Morel, was first released in 2009 and is believed to be one of the most thrilling action films of the season. However after watching the 93 minute film some viewers may disagree. If you have watched the film Man On Fire, you will notice the similarities between both of these action packed films, telling a story of a ex CIA agent who will stop at nothing to save someone they love. Unfortunately Taken's unrealistic acting and very predictable plot prevents viewers from experiencing the actuality families face that are affected by the horrors of sex trafficking, which the movie attempts to portray.…

Throughout the film, he seems to be on the brink of letting go of his reckless adolescent past but never seems to reach this conclusion. One example is when Falfa (Harrison Ford) is racing him and runs a red light while John stops.…

    We have all been in the same spot: our favorite book gets its chance on the big screen. The anticipation builds up as trailers are released and small bits of this fictional world is revealed, but when we go to see it, we see that the movie is in fact nothing like the book. They have changed some important details or just left entire facts out. Those changes can result in an overall tone shift from the book to the movie. All of a sudden, a character who was the lowly underdog is transformed into the macho lead; the humorous best friend becomes a sarcastic know-it-all.…

    For my Comparative Literature assignment, I will be comparing Jack London’s Call of the Wild and Leo Tolstoy’s “Master and Man”. One of the central themes of Call of the Wild is nature vs. nurture, which is demonstrated through the main character Buck and his regression into an almost feral state. A central theme for “Master and Man” is human foibles, shown through Vasili’s overall character flaws and treatment of Nikita. While each story has their own central theme, they also share a common theme in the humbling power of the natural world. This is displayed in Call of the Wild through Buck’s interactions with his new surroundings and environment, and in “Master and Man” through Vasili and Nikita’s experience in the snow storm.…

    In the film, The Terminator directed by James Cameron, an artificial intelligence called Skynet, dominates the future world and attempts to destroy all human life, causing a war between machine and human. On the verge of defeat in 2029, Skynet sends a “Terminator” back to the year 1984 to kill Sarah Conner, in order to wipe out the existence of John Connor, who is the leader of the human Resistance. To prevent the murder, John Connor sends one of his soldiers, Kyle Reese, back in time to protect his mother. Whenever time travel is brought up in science fiction there are bound to be paradoxes, if not thought out well. According to Philosophers, Ted Sider and David Lewis, time travel is not that logically impossible as we play it out to be.…
