What makes King Kong so brilliant is the depression begins the film and the viewer “is immediately immersed in a particular, then-current socio-economic circumstances," but King Kong (1933) does not linger in this depressed world; it instead takes the viewer into fantasy (Stymeist 400). The films venture into fantasy will ultimately lead to a…

However, Ann does not warrant these advances, and in a final chase through New York City, King Kong falls from the Empire State Building.…

I was 7 years old when I watched the movie the Iron Giant for the very first time. The movie is about the friendship between a boy and a robot and at the end of the movie the robot is faced with the choice of sacrificing himself to save his friend or letting his friends town and everyone that lives there be destroyed by a bomb. The Iron Giant chooses to sacrifice himself in order to save everyone else, but more specifically his friend. That was the first time I had ever seen someone take their…

and tremendous power. However, the superficial terror is not the only one that gives people nightmare. The more drastic horror comes from the uncertainty of the monster’s origin and motivation. Where is the monster coming from? Why is the monsters destroying the society we live in? These questions always remain in our head.

Documentaries appear to give predictable suggestions to the DVD community group that cinematic quality and video quality are not commonly exclusive. King of Kong fills in as a shocking case of that standard. Shot for as little as possible using a low-spending DV, the video nature of his generally massively engaging documentary isn't probably going to inspire. Colors a fairly inconsistent balance – especially in the some of the exterior sequences and are generally washed-out. Digitization and…

Throughout history, the Taiping Rebellion has become known as the most important radical political and religious event in the 19th century (Britannica). Around 1850, Hong Xiuquan became the leader of the rebellion whose goal was to promote the ideals of anti-manchuism and especially Christianity. Even though the Taiping rebellion is one of the bloodiest movements in Chinese history, there was a positive outcome.
