Frank Cameron Jackson

The first time I met Frank was in the spring of 2016. I knew he was well respected because every player said hello to him before they took the field and you could tell that they all truly cared about him. It didn’t take long for me to understand why. As the days flew by and football camp was approaching, I started to see Frank frequently. I got to know him a little bit and was impressed by his ability to make someone feel welcomed. I feel that to truly get a sense of the character an individual…

The Carolingian Empire was established by Charlemagne in 800 and would lead to a several generation split into several Carolingian kingdoms. Charlemagne and the kingdoms of his grandsons Louis the German, Charles the Bald and Lothar represent the rise and fall of a would be empire. Each of these kingdoms had their strengths and weaknesses that would ultimately influence the further progression of Europe. The Carolingian kingdoms were responsible for the unifications of the Anglo-Saxon people…

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…

Every Wednesday, current Prime Minister, David Cameron, meets in the House of Commons for half an hour to answer questions from Members of Parliament. These questions are meant to address current events both international and domestic, and have come to be known as Prime Minister Questions (PMQs). All Members of Parliament must write their questions for the Prime Minister on the Order Paper several days prior to the PMQs. Once submitted, the questions are then sorted through, scrambled, and…

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…

Cameron turned this idea into a screenplay, eventually selling it to producer Gale Ann Hurd for only $1, with the agreement that Cameron would direct the movie (Breihan). Ever since its release, The Terminator has been a crucial part of pop culture and has helped set the tone for Action/Sci-Fi movies that came after.…

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…

It’s Jake and Lydia’s first time to go outside in the wilderness and see all of the beautiful nature out there. They don’t know what they're going to expect out there and there can be very dangerous plants or animals there. They have never ever seen any kind of animal in there whole life except the talking ape. Their parents let them go explore outside even though that might be the last time there going to see them. Jake and Lydia are very excited to go out and see different things. When they go…

James Cameron had directed many movies at this point in his life.While most of them have included high action fight scene, a lot of weaponry, and strong female lead, this one next movie Cameron would take on is very different. It’s a beautiful love story about a woman trying to find who she truly is, set on the catastrophic 1912 Titanic passenger ship, this movie, named after the ship is one of, if not the best work Cameron has ever done. Cameron directed and wrote Titanic, a cinematic…
