Most of the cancer are named based on the organ where these abnormal cell division started. For example, if these uncontrollable cell division started at the breast, it is called breast cancer, if the cancer started in the melanocytes of the skin, it is call the melanoma cancer. Now, what is telomerase? Telomerase is a type of ribonucleoprotein enzyme in…

A house is often regarded as a home, however this is debatable in many respects. Through globalisation and literature, the representation of a home is not necessarily a ‘house’, as is a house is not necessarily a ‘home’. There are many representations of home within literary contexts, and through an examination of James Cameron’s 2009 highest grossing film of all time, Avatar, I will discuss how deterritorialisation identifies with the idea of home, and how the film exemplifies this idea. In…

The movie I decided to watch for my Film Review was Avatar, written and directed by James Cameron. Avatar was presented by Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation and in association with Dune Entertainment, Ingenious Film Partners, and Lightstorm Entertainment. Written originally in 1994, and eventually get filmed in The United States and New Zealand, James Cameron watched his script get brought to life. Avatar was just another success on Cameron’s record, following Titanic (1997) that broke all…

Black Swan: A Movie Analysis “I felt it. What? Perfect. I was perfect.” The movie starts with a ballerina dancing to a musical piece beautifully, and then enters a hideous black bird, which seems to torture the ballerina. The young and naïve ballerina is our protagonist, Nina Sayers, played by Natalie Portman. The ballet company she works in, opens for a new season. The director announces that the season will open with an ambitious adaption of “Swan Lake” with a new face. Nina dreams that…

A major theme in the film was rebirth- where a person is reborn spiritually, physically, and or mentally. The main character Jake Sully was the representation of that theme throughout the movie, where in the end he is physically reborn and now an Avatar. The film follows an ex-marine named Jake Sully who is paraplegic. He gets the opportunity to take his brothers place on a mission to a world called Pandora where he will be working with the scientists to learn, and understand the people who live…

In the film Avatar, Jake Sully is faced with multiple ethical dilemmas. Including taking his brothers spot on the mission, whether to help the soldiers destroy the Home-Tree and the decision to fight the humans and send them back to Earth. I would like to focus on the internal conflicts that Jake suffered when he decided that he wanted to protect the Home-Tree from Colonel Quaritch. When Jake Sully first came to the planet of Pandora he was absolutely focused on his mission of infiltrating the…

The movie Gladiator, directed by Ridley Scott, tells the story of general Maximus (played by Russell Crowe) that stands against crazy Emperor (played by Joaquiem Phoenix) is considered to be one of the best historical movies in modern history. However, as it goes in historic movies, Gladiator is showing the audience the popular recitation period and masks the real perception and the real course of government. It is true that most of the changes made in the movie could only strengthen the…

James Cameron movie, Avatar, struck the audience in a provoking way. The method Cameron made it seem that way was by challenging the protagonist, Jake Sully, to become involved with the Na’vi and do things he did not believe in after he had adapted to the Na’vi culture. Avatar is a case of imperialism, which has happened throughout history in the world. Various times occurred in history, a foreign country has been imperialized for their lands belongings for natives of a country. Countries take…

It is inevitable that at some point in life or another, everyone will face challenges. The way individuals respond in the face of these challenges is what truly makes or breaks them. Societies are impacted similarly, for what determines the success of a society but the actions of a group of individuals. The greatest feats of mankind have come upon in the wake of being faced with difficulty. Humans have the capability to surpass any challenge; it is only the question of how we deal with said…
