Character Analysis Of John Bender In The Breakfast Club

Show More
John Bender is a character in the Breakfast Club. He uses drugs, and has a bad attitude. He acts like he doesn’t care about anything. He fights with teachers and has trouble getting along with his peers. He does not have a good relationship with his father, but worries he acts like his father.
I chose this character because I feel like I don’t respect teachers like I should. It is hard for me to pay attention, so I just act like I can’t do it. There are many days that I feel adults (including my dad) don’t listen to me. We argue a lot and disagree with each other about many things including; school, activities I like to do in my free time, and sports.
I can also relate to Bender because I like to do anything to attract attention.

    Jack Lebowski Character Analysis

    Originally from Selmer, Tennessee; Bond Little is twenty-eight years old. He has served in the military for the last decade, has resided in Florida for the past nine years and relishes it; nonetheless, misses his family. People take pleasure in talking to him, and during conversations he cuts straight to the point. To depict his personality, I would say that he is part “Jeffery Lebowski” and part “Urban Cowboy” and makes him a fascinating character. His reported height is 5 feet 8 inches tall and weighs in at 215 pounds, he is a little overweight.…

    Joe's Farm Character Analysis

    Shane In Jack Schaefer’s short novel Shane it's about well a man named shane as it might imply. Every character in Joe’s Farm is selfless in their own way. This novel is an unforgettable adventure from front to back. Personally my favorite part is when Shane meets Jr. and Jr. has a unloaded gun and Shane’s reflexes kick in and he pulls out his gun and then Joe sorts everything out the reason I like this scene so much is because Shane thinks someone would give their like 10 year old kid a gun.…

    Character Analysis Of John Bender In The Criminal

    I had John Bender “The Criminal” and his personality is the stereotypical “bad boy” or rebel in movies. In the film he always in shown alone as he arrives and leaves alone. He dislikes anyone who thinks that they have it better than him and he is very mean to everyone towards the beginning of the film. Specifically he hates “The princess” for having her dad’s money, he hates “the nerd” for having what he thinks is a perfect life at home, he hates “The Jock” because he is always looked at positively, and he hates “The basket case” because she is just a little bit weird. He has a very short temper, does drugs, and is very critical of others and points out every flaw in them.…

    Character Analysis: If You Were John Wheelwright

    Learning who John Wheelwright’s father was, was a long awaited but expected event. I will admit that I thought John’s father was going to be a character not mentioned throughout the story, but to learn that John’s father was none other than Rev. Lewis Merrill was and was not a surprise. It was a surprise in the conventional sense that who knew it was Rev. Merrill all this time? (Well of course he did), but just the fact that this character that we had read about all throughout the story, and now coming to find that HE was the one who was the big mystery father of John, its a bit hard to put into words really. This however didn’t surprise me in the sense that this is a John Irving book and anything can happen to be quite frank, going by the themes and patterns of this book and how it is full of surprises this should come as no surprise; so all together a mix of emotions is what you could say I felt as the reader.…

    Of Mice And Men George Milton Character Analysis

    George’s Other Side During the 1930s in the United States of America, men often felt they had to project an image of machismo. At this time, men with feelings were not generally highly valued. In the novel Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck, the protagonist, George Milton, often exhibits a tough persona while working on the ranch, but his rough shell does not completely obscure his soft and compassionate inside. Three events in Of Mice and Men explicitly show George’s kinder side: when he recites to Lennie the dream by the pool, when he allows Candy to be a part of the dream, and when George makes sure that some stranger does not shoot his best friend. Analyzing these moments reveals more about this hapless, yet heroic, character.…

This is arguably the most influential tool we have as a society, explaining human experiences in the simplest of terms and voicing the opinions and thoughts of many. While some forms of media reiterate the same harmful tropes, others break the mould and represent the very real lives of our population. This shift in perspectives can be seen in the popular children’s film…

    The Three Fictional Characters Of My Personality

    I really am not a fan of people comparing me to others, but when I think of fictional characters that remind me of me, a few come to mind. When I think of my personality, I think of humor and a loving person who is hardworking. I really don't like being compared to people because I feel I am one-of-a-kind and don't believe anyone is like me. Despite when speaking of fictional characters who are most like me, I believe three come to mind these three characters represent me as a person in different ways. The three fictional characters that most represent my personality are Stitch from Lilo and Stitch for his hard working and outgoing personality, Roger for his wisdom and understanding, and Stewie for his intelligence and humor but also caring for his family.…
