Titanic

The passengers aboard the RMS Titanic were about 2,223 people who sailed on the maiden voyage. They sailed from Southampton to New York City. With many great deaths that occurred on this “unsinkable ship”, many authors used this event as a background for a great story, but were the details of the event accurately portrayed? When writing Dangerous Waters, it is clear that Gregory Mone did his research and showed the event accurately. The book Dangerous Waters by Gregory Mone was a heart…

The amazing world of Pandora with the story that was created by James Cameron to demonstrate Joseph Campbell’s monomyth. Campbell observed that the hero went through many similar situations in every story. The hero begins to separate from their daily life to go initiation a quest that they finish the quest and return home. However, Cameron designed the film Avatar in some a more modern plot of the hero and used a lot of effects to complete the whole monomyth. The whole story of the Na’Vi and…

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…

If one were to ask a practicing Christian what a prophet is, there is no doubt that most would be able to formulate some type of definition. However, many people’s thoughts on what a prophet is are often incomplete or even incorrect. While there are many places one could look to find an adequate definition of a prophet, Abraham Heschel provides an analysis of prophets unlike any other. Heschel’s analysis goes into great detail about what a prophet is, and what a prophet is not. After reading…

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.

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…

interpretation but director's I feel do try to stick to the best of there knowledge while maintaining a film that would be popular in ratings. Like James Cameron who written, directed, co-produced, and co-edited the film in 1997 of The historical event the Titanic which sunk in 1912. The movie was a great film with some inaccuracies but a nice story line to follow along with two fictional characters Jack Dawson and Rose Dewitt Bukater.…
