Ender's Game

The theme for ender's game i think is bipolar because you never expect what is going to come.

For example you would never know if ener will cry or be happy or angry. Also it takes place on earth and space on the if space battle school which is odd. The book talks about battles but never in super good details it will skip a couple battles the nielly talk about one of them that is rielly not that important. And it does not talk about how he is supposed to be the best commander from battle school when they don't even talk about how they fight them. I think the battles are just like pe but the actual school goes on in the desk. That is why i think ender's game is so bipolar and that is the theme of the book.

    No book or movie is ever alike. This is shown in the book “Enders Game” by Orson Scott Card and the Enders Game movie by Gaven Hood, where the book and movie had many similarities but as well had many differences. In the novel Ender is portrayed as a very different kid after he gets to battle school; however this is not shown in the movie. Another difference would be how Lock and Demosthenes were not mentioned at all in the movie, yet had a huge role in the book, and the final would be the endings for both the movie and book as well as Enders reaction to what’s going on in the end. These three reasons show how the movie is very different from the book.…

    The entire concept of the battle school is adult manipulation of young children. From the start, as soon as Ender boarded the ship headed towards outer space, the situations he was put in were rigged. His entire training was rigged; the situation was manipulated along with Ender. This is one of the most notorious ways the school brought out the side of Ender they liked, they set the situation and the people in the situations against him. They always tried to push Ender’s limits by assuring the odds against him.…

    The Thing Theme

    • 1923 Words
    • 8 Pages

    John Carpenters ’s 1982 horror film, The Thing was made as a premise for social commentary on the deterioration of humanity, warning society of the devastating potential of thinking as individuals in isolation rather than a collective. These themes are accentuated through the use of an alien specimen that enters the world of American male scientists based in Antarctica. The alien (or “Thing”) infects living organisms and attempts to take over the human race by ‘imitating’ them, leaving the men in a fight for their own survival as they try to differentiate between “human” and an alien imitation of a human. The term humanity itself is redefined in this film and is stripped to its bare minimum: the mere biological relationship between humans.…

    In the story “The lottery” by Shirley Jackson the point, moral and theme of the story is a dark and cruel because it says that the townspeople stoned her due to the fact that there is overpopulation and it was a brutal way to remove someone from the village which is the irony that this story has. The tone of the story in the beginning of the story seems to be nice and smooth, the mood feels calm and gentle with nothing to fear. For example, in the beginning of the story everybody is happy and cheerful, but towards The middle of the story it gets a little intense because we think that the prize is money or something fancy but in reality it really isn’t. Another example to back up this point is a quote from a character in the story who is named Old man Warner says “It’s not the way it used to be” and “people ain’t the way they used to be”.…

    Theme Of Dead Man's Path

    • 5 Pages

    Throughout the short story by Chinua Achebe “Dead Man’s Path” there are forms of irony, symbolism, and views which set the tone and background for the story. In the opening, we see a young man by the name of Michael Obi who has just received a job as the headmaster of an “unprogressive” school in what appears to be Africa in 1949. This town has religious ties as well as strong family roots. This society is not very welcoming of new and progressive ideas which makes this story unfold into a great cataclysmic display of irony. The central theme is that we should all be more tolerant of our neighbors no matter their beliefs or intellects.…
