The first one was a book it was called Seabiscuit: An American Legend it was written by Laura Hillenbrand. The second was a movie created on July 25, 2003. Both forms of entertainment were similar and at the same time highlighted on different forms (change better wording).

Bravery is not inherent, it is rather acquired from the circumstances or situation faced in the life. People face lot of problems in their lives and to cope with those situations and move in with one's life is the sheer example of being brave.  The same has been depicted by both the authors in their respective books. First by Kaye Gibbons in her very famous book "Ellen Foster" where in the protagonist is shown as homeless girl with no one to take care of, yet she finds a way to live her life and find herself a house worth living. Second, by Mark twain in his

The names of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are familiar to everyone’s inner child: Michelangelo, Raphael, Donatello, and Leonardo. However, the actual people after whom the ninjas are named were resplendent artists of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, and each of these men had a profound effect on the trajectory of art. During the Renaissance (late 1400s-1600s), an era of society emerging towards a new way of considering the world through artistic study, the marvelous coalition of citizens that is the public was propelled out of the philosophical oppression of the Middle Ages. Moreover, this served as a pivotal time not only for traditional art, but for free and open thought in general. Because of the Renaissance 's lasting influences and the grandeur of change it commenced, it will remain embedded in history for so long as the human race continues to exist. In this period of transcendence, Greco-Roman culture and philosophy saw its return, the Catholic Church suffered a decline, art revolutionized itself, and academia returned to antiquity.

In today’s society the majority of the crimes are still being committed by people who have possessed a firearm that has been obtained illegally or without proper permits. That being said there has been a strong push for gun control because of the rise of shootings involving a large group of people such as the Columbine massacre, Virginia Tech shooting and latest Aurora movie theater shooting involving people who have purchased firearms legally. Gun control laws in the United States have been established for many years but to maintain a civilized society with limited crime stronger control laws need to be enforced in which will help reduce crime in our country. Establishing stronger gun control laws will educate

For thousands of years, the concept of God and religion has been on the frontlines of thought and conversation. There are many variations of religion, each with their own beliefs and practices. Many people struggle with their concept of religion. Judaism and Islam have their own similarities and differences, many of which are illustrated in the evolving beliefs and values of Antonio in Rudolfo A. Anaya's Bless Me,

Many people go into things blind without any thought process behind their actions which will often lead to the worst consequences. Many novels and movies reveal this message clearly. In the novel Johnny Got His Gun by Dalton Trumbo, Joe, a young soldier drafted into the war, suffered extreme injures both mentally and physically after battle due to not fully knowing what to expect going into war. Likewise, in Shenandoah, a 1965 Civil War movie, Boy, the youngest in the Anderson family, mistakenly gets forced into the line of battle and is faced with the truth behind the whole war at a very young age and faces several losses from his journey. Despite the fact that Joe and Boy both suffered different consequences, they

The portrayal of superheroes in films has changed in terms of their character, appearance, style and strength. Superheroes has been a popular theme in hollywood films since its inception. They are what peoples imagination can only think of. A perfect human being who saves the world .The first time superhero appeared on T.V was “The Adventures of Captain Marvel” in 1941. Superheroes was on the rise within popular comic books in 1930′s to the 1940’s as well in which they were considered the ‘Golden Age of Comic Books’ .

In the story Freak the Mighty by: Rodman Philbrick is a heartwarming story about a anti-social boy named Max and a disabled boy named Freak. Both Kevin and Max have similarities, but also have differences.

Superhero movies have been on the rise lately. These movies are often looked at as entertainment for people who play Dungeons and Dragons and are simply mindless pleasure; however, this is not the case. The reason behind the popularity of superhero movies is more than just the want of the common comic book reader. The superhero movie industry has made a sharp incline in popularity; in fact there are more superhero movies now than ever before. A website called Fights, Tights and Movie Nights listed all of the superhero movies made since the 1980’s by year and these were their findings. In the 1980’s an average of three to four super movies came out a year. In the 1990’s these movies were made on average five to six times per year. In the 2000’s the movies doubled to 12-13 produced on average each year. Today, 2010’s, the average number of superhero movies has again doubled in size with it now resting at twenty-two to twenty-three superhero movies made on average each year. The drastic increase of the number of superhero movies leaves the average movie attendee wondering why they are seeing this spike of superhero movies. The increase of superhero movies can be contributed to a few key factors: the advances of technology in the movie industry, the movie genre’s adaption to be socially relevant, and the characters now possessing more humanistic qualities (Fights…).

The difference between the 1934 and 1959 version of the Imitation of Life is how they gave more emphasis on the African American side of the story. At first it started with Lora’s story as a struggling actress trying to make it big, but towards the second half of the movie it became apparent that the focus was on the Annie and Sarah Jane story. This movie is known as melodramatic because it contains a lot of emotional scenes and with this it causes the audience to be fully engaged in the movie.

Freak the Mighty, the book, is very different than the movie, The Mighty, but I liked the book a lot more. The main similarity between the book and the movie is the characters and plot. All of the characters act the same in both the book and the movie, and the plot moves the characters along in the same. We see the same type of development in the book and movie as to the friendship of Max and Freak and how it builds. Next, I think that the biggest difference was that in the movie there was a lot of time spent with Max and Freak at school. They actually played a lot of basketball in the movie, whereas in the book the pages spent in school is limited. Another difference is that in the movie, Freak dies in his sleep, whereas in the movie, Freak

In recent years, animated programs have dominated the world of film and TV in both America and Japan. These programs, known as cartoons and anime, are some of the most popular forms of entertainment today. Anime and cartoon shows, such as One Piece and Family Guy, have been running for decades and are very well known among society. Animated films such as Disney’s The Lion King and Studio Ghibli’s Spirited Away have also thrived and even surpassed animated television shows in some instances. Both American and Japanese animation industries have flourished, and their cartoons and animes continue to grow in popularity. However, similarities and differences between the two soon arise when compared closely; these observations are often what lead fans to prefer one style over the other as well as shape pop culture.
