Batman Forever

responsible to Knowing the Joker, it may have triggered their own ferry, but it still would have been acting to preserve the greatest good for the greatest amount. Without Batman saving them, this trigger man would have halved the number of deaths, preserving happiness for those who otherwise would have died. Finally, I align myself with Batman in his balancing of excess and deficiency. He had ethical reasons to go after the Joker and acted, sitting out when he knew he could help would have been…

Wonder Woman What really pleased me in this movie was how determined and self-less Diana’s character was. Her whole goal when facing the real world was to protect others and restore peace by destroying Ares, the god of war. At this time, she had been previously sheltered on the island protected by Zeus. Now, she was on her own and about to enter into World War II. When she was brought in front of the generals of the allies, she was speechless. How could such men not make more of an effort to…

In To Kill a Mockingbird and Batman: The Dark Knight Returns, both Atticus and Batman are viewed as villians in the beginning of their stories but that eventually changes as their story continues throughout both books. Towards the end people begin to see both Atticus and Batman as people who were only trying to do their best job to stand up for the people who had no one else to stand up for them. Both characters share a lot of similarities between each other and the towns reaction for each book…

Batman: The Long Halloween, and Watchmen, are very similar in some areas, and very different in some areas. Both books describe the hardships with being a super heroes, such as dealing with death of innocents, betrayed, misconceptions on some people. The Long Halloween still kept the superhero tradition of solving a mystery, beating the bad guy in a unique way, but at the same time, still following the typical tradition. Watchmen has a hero(es) that is trying to solve a mystery of the killings…

In the Christopher Nolan 2008 movie, The Dark Night, the audience and film analysis question if the character Batman is considered morally ambiguous. I believe he is morally ambiguous as his actions even out the scale of good and evil in the character. Tension is often within characters who are morally ambiguous as they question if their darker side will overcome the good and if it does, will this effect their quest for justice. These characters evoke sympathy in the audience as they deal with…

On a random Friday night there is a crowd in front of the movie theatre for the premiere of the newest Avengers. A group of friends streams the latest season of Orange is the New Black on Netflix. Multiple people pick up George R.R. Martin’s new book in the bookstore. It is no secret that the entertainment industry has a heavy influence on American lives. The media has always been the source of controversy regarding its content. However, there is one issue that continues to occur in…

perceive genders in everyday life. Male superheros such as Superman, Batman, and the Flash all have something in common, personality. No, this may not be noticeable at first, but looking over certain personality traits that they possess it becomes very evident. The more obvious traits are that they are powerful, smart, and brave. In addition to that they are all also overconfident in themselves. For example, Bruce Wayne also known as Batman is a powerful man in his own right. He is a…

A hero can be classified by many things. A hero can be superman, a police officer, and even your mom, but what makes a hero? Is it someone who can fly or shoot laser beams from their eyes or someone who saves a baby from a burning building? I’ll admit some of these characteristics are far-fetched since I don’t know anyone who can fly or randomly saves babies on a normal day. All heroes, including super ones, all have something in common, they're admired for their courage or an outstanding thing…

M. Night Shyamalan’s Unbreakable is a superhero film, filled with numerous amounts of supernatural and fatal situations and a couple of strange and powered characters who are active or the conductors of those devastating situations. There is no question that one of those characters, which is David Dunn, is a superhero. He is an unbreakable man that isn’t affected by just about anything, and that can definitely be considered a superpower. Before we get into David Dunn’s specific powers, let’s…

display their historical moments in appealing ways. The latest Batman movie, the dark knight (2008), directed by the one and only Christopher Nolan, is a perfect example of that. Like many superhero movies, it has a hero and an anti-hero. Featuring Christian Bale as Bruce Wayne/Batman who is the hero and Heath Ledger as the Joker who played the anti-hero. The Joker’s main purpose is to bring chaos to the people of Gotham city, so Batman must come to terms with one of the greatest psychological…
