Unrealistic Expectation

Decent Essays
Expecting the Unexpected Studies have shown that a baby chick that just hatched will follow anything that it sees. In like manners, a child will try to do stuff exactly like it's done on TV. Kids will believe anything they see and mostly get attracted to colored objects moving inside a television. Adapting from what they think is real, kids grow unrealistic expectations such as being powerful which includes the ability to fly, believing that FBI and Police men are powerless and having access to powerful equipment and secret organization files. Batman, like any other superhero is a powerful man with lots of power, fighting for justice. The unrealistic expectation that will grow in these kids is that there exist in real life people

    “Little kids are just dumb, the smart ones and the slow ones. They do dumb things. They say what they think. They haven’t learned enough yet to say what they don’t really think. That comes later, when kids begin to turn into people and find out that they are alone” (LeGuin 3).…

    In order to save the "dying" city of Gotham from the criminal underworld, poverty, and corruption within the police department, Bruce returns to the root of all his misery as a changed man; the identity of Batman was established to prevent anyone else from experiencing the pain and suffering he had endured as a child while the normal Bruce Wayne returns to his "throne" at Wayne Enterprises in order to gain the funding needed for new technology such as the bat-mobile and upgrading the suit as well as using his influence to support individuals such as Harvey Dent who had gained the title of the "White Knight" due to being able to achieve justice during the day without a mask. Despite his vigilantly approach towards establishing law and order, Batman is able to maintain his sanity by acknowledging a specific honor code that prevents him from using deadly force or resorting to killing criminals such as the Joker despite his ruthless and unpredictable nature to harm others for his own enjoyment. What makes Batman an ideal hero is his heart and courage because he refuses to be thanked or acknowledged for his role in justice. As a result, Bruce Wayne actually tries to distant himself from the caped crusader by essentially hiding in pain site and acting like the cocky "Billionaire Playboy" who…

    As said by Georgia Jagger “Reality tv rots people’s brains.” Reality tv results in children and teens becoming sexists and believing in stereotypes. Reality tv ruins common morals and causes child and teens to act as the actors in the show. Parents should monitor the number of hours their children watch reality tv. Watching reality tv creates the basis of delusions and dangerous stereotypes for the impressionable.…

    Like so many, I felt an undeniable call to action after watching Davis Guggenheim’s film Waiting for Superman. The film poignantly illustrates the imperative need for a long overdue paradigm shift in American education. In the film, activist, educator and founder of the Harlem Children’s Zone, Geoffrey Canada, shares the disillusionment he felt as a child upon realizing that Superman was not coming to save him from the perils of his impoverished South Bronx neighborhood. His message in the film is that we must become our own superheroes.…

    During childhood, young boys and girls will look to their parents and other role models for ways to behave, however some of these role models may be characters in shows. Many stereotypes occur in children 's television series or commercials and therefore can create misrepresentations of both genders. The portrayals of any gender in a certain way may alter children 's perceptions and mold the way they communicate with the opposite gender. Sex-role stereotypes that try to define girl 's feminine roles and boy 's masculinity roles are arguably the biggest issue in television. Males outnumber females in a majority of ads and are the voice-overs in 69.3% of commercial advertisements.…

    Even though it can be easy to wish for a vigilante to save society from itself, even Batman in The Dark Knight, realizes his own darkness, and ability to be corrupted. Harvey Dent said, "“You either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain.” At the end of the previous movie Batman Begins Batman says, "As a man, I'm flesh and blood, I can be ignored, I can be destroyed; but as a symbol... as a symbol I can be incorruptible, I can be everlasting." Batman, at the end of The Dark Knight, sacrifices his own image, so that Harvey Dent can continue to be the cities "white knight.…

    The character of Batman is considered to be one of the world’s classic and modern day superhero. His story has taken on many different forms from comics, to TV series, and to today’s modern cinematography. However, I want to discuss the story of Batman and its famous characters based off of the 2000’s version of the current films.

I want to use the personas of Bruce Wayne, Batman, and the well-known villains of this universe because of how they relate to the many ideas used in psychology.…

    Symbolism is another significant portion in Bruce Wayne’s life as Batman. Freud would say that not only were Bruce’s dreams forms of symbolism, but also, more significantly and recognizably, Batman’s Batsuit and name. As previously stated, Bruce came up with the batsuit when seeing a swarm of bats. He then decided on the name because he felt that villains would also fear bat, as they are a symbol of the night. Another form of analysis that Freud could make about Batman and his life is by using his idea of the doctrine of opposites.…

    Patrick O’Connor has been doing everything he can to keep the superhero therapy method alive starting with his sessions. He found that talking about heroes not only got the children talking about hard subjects but it had them excited for their next session. When he first started in 2010, he was only using Batman and Robin as an example for the foster care children he was helping but he has slowly branched out to incorporate the other heroes such as: Spiderman, Steel and Hawkman. With every comic book he read, he kept a “comicspedia” on the different challenges each hero faced such as being forced to face their fears, losing a loved one, or being considered an outcast. Patrick found every way he could possibly spread the idea of superhero therapy.…

    Relevant Scene I decided to choose a combination of scenes from the movie to show the progression of the character and to fully make my point across. The first scene, was when Alfred started to tell Bruce about his time in Burma. He spoke about a thief who was stealing jewels and how they were looking for him, when one day, he [Alfred] saw a kid playing with a jewel, and learned that the thief was just throwing away the jewels he stole. Bruce asks why would the thief steal them in the first place, and Alfred explains that the thief, like the Joker is a man who he does not understand fully either, and tells him how some men are not looking for anything logical, that they cannot "be bought, bullied, or negotiated with, as they just want…
