Spongebob Squarepants : Character Analysis

Throughout the entire story Doodle and his brother are faced with challenges that people believe he won't be able to accomplish, but they show them wrong.

Howard the Duck is strange reading material and in a completely different category than what we read last week. I think it is really interesting as an example of the “funny animal” trope. This is when an animal (in a comic, cartoon, etc.) walks around on two legs like a human, and acts like a human, and is saddled with human problems. Usually, I associate this with silly characters meant for kids, like Goofy or Mickey Mouse. But I think the character type is much more interesting when its creator subverts these expectations and turns something as ridiculous-looking as Howard into an instrument for commentary on the human condition. This is what Steve Gerber did- and I think his success in doing so was best summarized when Professor Borenstein compared the humor within the comic to Louie C.K.’s standup and TV show. Howard the Duck is frequently depressing and troubling. Within the first issue, on the very first page, he considers suicide. In issue 12, he is institutionalized as his brain has turned to “duck’s head soup.” Reading Howard the Duck reminded me of a similar depiction of a funny animal. The show Bojack Horseman on Netflix has a similar character, a horse named Bojack, who does silly horse stuff like eat apple fritters and wear apple pajamas. But he is also deeply depressed and an alcoholic, and often incredibly self-destructive as a result. His pain is not played for laughs, as it might be on a lesser show. Instead, his terrible behavior gives the showrunners an

All our personalities compare to a character from Lord of the Flies, and I found myself to be an ENFP or an idealist; someone most comparable to Simon. An ENFP or an idealist personality displays characteristics of being extroverted, intuitive, feeling and perceiving which. Furthermore, passionately concerned with positive improvement, being kind, warm, sympathetic, distracted and motivated were all trait described in the personality test for the ENFP. Due to our selflessness, how introverted and extroverted we are, and how we can think both logically and emotionally, makes Simon and I most similar.

Being an artist is a heavy responsibility. Each work of art is like a child and must be treated as such." (Frankendoodle Transcript line 34) Patrick continues on and draws and one of SpongeBob’s neighbours Squidward. When the drawing comes to life, both SpongeBob and Patrick decide it is “[...]kind of creepy when it moves” (Frankendoodle Transcript line 38), and decide to erase and allow their minds to be at ease. Following, SpongeBob decides to make a replica of himself named “Doodlebob” (also known as Frankendoodle) which they use to frighten his neighbour for entertainment. As both Patrick and SpongeBob watch their creation scare their neighbour, Squidward is being brutally beaten by Doodlebob. It 's revealed that both SpongeBob and Patrick are completely terrified of Doodlebob, and Patrick outright refuses to confront him, until being convinced by SpongeBob. At this point in the text, Doodlebob has stolen the pencil that gave him life and even recreates SpongeBob 's house, proving that although he is unable to communicate, he bares enough intelligence to be spiteful of his creator. SpongeBob gains the upper hand while all three dual for the ownage of the magic pencil and erases DoodleBob face while exclaiming: “I brought you into this world and now I 'm gonna take you out. Any last words?” (Frankendoodle Transcript line 77) SpongeBob

Have you ever met someone who is a natural leader? In the Lord of the Flies by William Golding, British boys are sent to an island to keep them safe from a war. The boys are without any adults and must use what’s around them and what they know to survive. Ralph (one of the older boys) is a leader and tried his best to maintain peace and help the group survive. I believe Ralph doesn’t have a distinct character flaw.

The universe doesn’t owe you, me, or anyone a thing, except for death. Though as kids most of us were led to believe that with enough effort and hard work were going to become whatever we wanted to be, we were going to have whatever our little hearts desired, and we were going to do whatever we wanted to do. However, as we grew up we realized that this is not the case. There are millions of people who did not become professional athletes, models, or billionaires, people who never got to have the mansions, cars, and fame that they always longed for, people who never got to travel the world, cure cancer, or fly into space. These are all mostly childlike dreams, which were probably imposed unto us by either our parents or society. There’s nothing wrong with children having these sort of improbable dreams, however, there comes a time where we can no longer be children. In the story Tandolfo the Great, written by Richard Bausch, we are introduced to Rodney Wilbury aka Tandolfo the Great, who is a suitable example to demonstrate what life can be like for those who are unable to grow out of their childlike mind sets. In this analysis I will be inspecting how Tandolfo the Great’s childish mind set, from his strong sense of entitlement to his inability to let go of the past events, has almost destroyed his life and how it can destroy anyone else’s.

Throughout the story Doodle, a boy born with a caul over his head and a range of physical and mental problems, must combat his deepest and darkest fear, Isolation. When the narrator’s mother gave birth to doodle, his entire

Which one do you think is more dangerous a hurricane or a tornado? Hurricanes are more dangerous. Hurricane season starts on June 1st and ends on November 30th. Hurricanes have very fast wind speeds. Hurricane also cause flooding and heavy rainfall. Hurricane are more dangerous than a tornado because of their powerful winds and the heavy rain.

A character in a novel can represent a larger idea in society. In William Golding’s novel Lord of the Flies, each character is illustrated to represent a larger idea in society. Ralph represents democracy, Jack represents savagery, and Piggy represents a scientific approach.

The purpose of this essay is to watch a movie and try to view the main character from three personality theorists perspectives. In the movie The Little Mermaid, Ariel is a mermaid princess who makes a deal with an evil sea-witch to meet a human prince who lives on land (Clements/Musker, 1989). In this essay, I will analyze the movie The Little Mermaid through Sigmund Freud’s psychoanalytic theory, Carl Jung’s theory of Archetypes, and Erik Erikson’s Stages of Development. While these theorists have much in common in terms of self-concept, their views on the main issues at hand vary accordingly.

The trickster character appears in many cultural mythologies across the world and across the span of time. Despite the individual personalities of a trickster being unique across time and cultures there are unchanging characteristics belonging only to tricksters, which still appear in our modern day media. A wonderful example of a modern day trickster, who has lived within our society for the past 85 years, would be Bugs Bunny. Bugs has undergone a few minor changes within his personality and outward appearance throughout his life, yet he is recognizable to the current three generations living within our society today. Bugs is a fearless, creative, and sassy individual who is able to break barriers, not only between generations but also

To improve one’s understanding of how the narrator changes, one must first be acquainted with the situation: Doodle is born with a heart

The movie The Lion King II: Simba’s Pride follows the life of Simba and Nala’s daughter Kiara. She falls in love with Kovu, a male lion from an exiled pride known as the Outsiders who was once lead by Simba’s evil uncle named Scar. Separated by Simba’s prejudice against the Outsiders, who are followers of Scar with a vindictive plot planned by Kovu’s mother Zira, Kiara and Kova struggle to overcome the two obstacles that are keeping them apart. Desperate to be together, Kiara and Kovu become the key to join both prides at peace. This paper will be focused on Kiara’s life within the movie and also examine Kiara’s process of development through Freud’s psychosexual and Erikson’s psychosocial stages, and as well as Piaget theories.

I am not allowed to watch much TV. Therefore, I must be super selective about what I watch. While I could waste a lot of time watching Duck Dynasty, when it comes to choosing a show, Family Guy is my top selection. I think the popular cartoon comedy Family Guy, written by Seth MacFarlane, is one of the best shows still running today.

Storytellers are the God of their universe. Seeking atonement for them is nearly impossible without belief in a higher being. In Ian McEwan’s novel Atonement, Briony, a 13 year old fanciful storyteller, misjudges a series of events that have repercussions on the lives of others. Consequently, she spends a lifetime attempting atonement through storytelling. Brian Finney explains that Briony “attempts to use fiction to correct the errors that fiction caused her to commit” (69).
