8.1: The Unique Business model of Nespresso 8.1.1: Nespresso began in 1986 as a more traditional business model in which the company manufactured Coffee machines and created a pod system, and then gave both products to traditional retailers to sell to offices and home users. 8.1.2: For a dozen years, this model did not prosper. In 1998, a new CEO devised changes to the business model, which revolutionised sales and put the company on a growth trajectory which created annual growth of more than…

Choi Jin-won directs and pens ‘’Mister Socrates’’, not a typical gangster film, but a movie that combines comedy, crime, drama and social commentary. The main character is Ku Dong-Hyeok (Kim Rae-won), who is a high-school drop-out and low-level thug. He shows no respect for other people, he has no ethics and he just loves to beat people. One night, while he reports the accidental murder of a friend of his, by another friend, he gets kidnapped by a gang. He is kept in an abandoned school and,…

Intriguing heroes are plenty, villains, not so many. However, the ‘Batman’ universe gave the world a menacing yet fascinating super villain with a chalk white face, green hair, and a fear inducing Glasgow smile. Unlike the many other fictional villains who petrified the world with super powers and super weapons, this man was able to instil gut wrenching fear by virtue of his “strange” personality. It is for this very reason that the “Joker” is such a captivating and interesting character to…

Rain Man and A Beautiful Mind are both compelling movies that explore the struggles related to mental disorders. Rain Man is the story of Charlie Babbitt’s discovery of his long-lost brother, Raymond, and their touching and eventful journey together. Charlie Babbitt is a car-dealer in his mid-twenties when he receives a phone call informing him that his estranged father has passed away. Charlie had a poor relationship with his father. He was a rebellious child and following his mother’s death…

One example of this materialism is through Kim Kardashian. Her famous Kim Kardashian game attracted more than 22 millions of players within the few months of the game’s release. By early 2016, she earned more than $100 million from the launch (Rao). This game is essentially a materialistic game because it encourages…

from the moment it first aired. The show is about a large family of five siblings, a mother, and stepfather and how they cope with family situations, their unity, and their views on topics that relate to the American society today, the siblings are, Kim, Khloe, Kendall, Kylie, Kourtney, Rob, the mother named Kris, and the stepfather, Bruce. Their family’s TV show has been going on for years and I decided to choose one episode in particular to discuss their morals, ethics and values. In the…

Nicholson’s Nihilism Partly because I’m a Batman enthusiast, I noticed, from early on in this film, that a nexus existed between Nicholson’s role as J.P. McMurphy in One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest and his later casting as the joker in Tim Burton’s 1989 Batman. In this film’s early development, we learned of McMurphy’s past: five arrests for assault and his most recent arrest for statutory rape – how joker-esque! And only an upstanding joker would find a mental institution more appealing than…

When we think of Batman, the words “hope”, “justice”, and “incorruptibility” come to mind. He is The Dark Knight, a bat vigilante who fights to keep the fictional streets of Gotham safe. He is arguably one of the greatest superheroes ever created. He fights crime and faces some of the most insane villains in comic book history. What makes him stand out from the rest is that, as Wikipedia states, “unlike most superheroes, Batman does not possess any superpowers; rather, he relies on his genius…

The Dark Knight in my opinion one of the best movies ever made. The color, editing, sound effects, and acting are superb. Growing up a Batman and superhero fan you would even appreciate this film even more. I think it is the best Batman film made to date. If you have not seen I would highly suggest watching this film. The rest of this film will be an analysis of different dynamics of the Dark Knight. Batman (Christian Bale) is hoping to hand on his fighting obligations to D.A Harvey Dent…

The line between what's good and what's evil seems a simple idea in itself, just a line dividing the two, right? However, what you don't think about are the footnotes that cross and cover the line with justifications and designated loopholes made by those who believe certain things must be accounted for when considering what is actually right and wrong. Supposing that Batman were on a side, he'd be one of those sticky notes teetering on the line that divides what he believes in, and what he is…
