The Matrix Movie Comparison

The original 1933 King Kong was created as a movie: to convey a story and entertain and audience. Peter Jackson’s 2005 remake took the foundation for King Kong and expanded upon it in almost every way in order to “make again” the amazement of the original for a modern audience. Audiences received the original King Kong very well. The stop motion sequences of Kong were amazing for their time and the movie grossed $90,000 in its opening weekend. In order to bank upon its success again sequels were made and then in 1976 a remake was made to improve upon the original. Paramount updated the movie to color, changed the story, and cast Jeff Bridges, a well-known actor of the time, as the lead. Although the movie received mixed reviews, it did

The novel, Coraline, was published in 2002 by Neil Gaimen, in which he won several awards. The film, Coraline, is an adaptation of the novel that was released by Henry Selick in 2009. It was a cleverly, produced stop-motion picture animation adaptation of the novel, where audiences everywhere seem to enjoy the plot.

Coraline is absolutely bored with her life, even her parents until she explored and found a door which leads to a mirrored world with the same neighbours, parents and house but even better.

Children today have access to many forms of literature, some of which are books made into movies. As the children become older, comments such as “the book was way better” or “the movie didn’t even come close to matching the book” or “the movie and book are the exact same, so save time and just watch the movie” are heard once children begin to make connections between the book and the film. It is important to me, as a future teacher, to be able to address such comments from my students and, in turn, help them understand why and how movies can either help or hinder the book’s original value and message. To help me prepare, I will compare a children’s film to the literary work that came from it.

Watch out, there is a mean, green ogre coming! A character my friends say I am certainly similar to is Shrek from the movie “Shrek,” and I agree. First, Shrek and I obviously have an outstanding number of similarities. Second, both of us have really bad anger issues and can be very hostile. Last, we both love to stuff our face with some delicious sweets. As can be seen, Shrek and I are as tight as a tight rope.

I have always been one to love the book better than the movie because they give me more details for us to work with. However, I’d have to say that in The Notebook, that I enjoyed the movie better. The movie really captured more emotion and showed a stronger passion for love than the book did. The director did an amazing job by adding in more conflicts and more heartbreaks which showed Noah’s and Allie’s love to be even stronger. In the book, Sparks builds up their love by explaining how they felt for one another, he uses Allie’s disease and how caring and loving Noah is towards her and how much he wants her to remember to show how strong their love is. The main focus in the book is her disease, it is highlighted more and it is the main conflict.

The world is not always what you think it is. Things change or can appear to be

The plot of The Secret Life of Bees was adapted into a movie. Some of the plot differences includes Zach getting kidnapped and T. Ray explaining to Lily about his mother coming home. First of all, in the book Zach never gets kidnapped. Zach was in town with Lily and Zach went over by his friends. One of the boys threw a bottle and they all got into trouble and went to jail. But in the movie, Zach was kidnapped while him and Lily were at a movie. Zach being kidnapped in the movie helped progress his character.

Ray had told Lily that she came back for her

Brave New World by Aldous Huxley and The Matrix Trilogy by the Wachowski brothers show us unique futuristic societies in which the advancement of technology and conflict have lead to societies that guarantee human survival but compromise individuality. The texts explore personal and political issues through personalities with conflicting ideologies, Utopian and Dystopian situations and events. Both texts have the theme of comfort versus freedom, strongly implying that an efficient society is dependent not only on complete control, but on controlling subjects who would happily choose it for themselves. Both show societies in which humans are no longer born, but created as useful tools rather than as individuals (The Matrix taking the more literal

After watching the movies Blade Runner and Blade Runner 2049, both directed by Ridley Scott. The two movies has numerous similarities between them not just because they are part of same series, some similarities are such as the setting of the movies which both take place in Los Angeles, California and show a future dystopia society and the protagonists of the films, Deckard and Joe are equally similar in many ways, for example both of them are replicants who work for the Los Angeles Police Department as a Blade Runner meaning they “retire” rogue replicants and while doing so both Deckard and Joe are morally challenged and both of them fell in love with someone who supposedly is not engineered to have any real emotions, After watching and analysing both films. I have come to the conclusion that Blade Runner 2049 is a better film when in comparison to its prequel Blade Runner and this is clearly show through the plot, relationships between characters and the craft of film making.

First, almost everything about Trailer 2 is more attractive than Trailer 2 like the colors and the word font. For example, a red background in Trailer 2 symbolizes blood or love. Trailer 2 keeps on sending messages that obviously points to “love” and “jealousy”. The music in the trailer builds up tension as you watch it. This all indicates that the movie is going to be an exciting but bloody story. Trailer 2 also keeps on asking short questions that seem to make the person want to find out more. Overall, Trailer 2 stands out more than Trailer 1, making it better than Trailer 1.

Society has a shared way of thinking on many issues and this can often be confronted by different perspectives. The Wachoswki Brother's film 'The Matrix' and Ian Mudie's poem 'My Father Began As a God' both convey the idea that altering points if view can be confronting resulting in new knowledge and consequences for individuals. These concepts are explored in The Matrix through the themes of gender expectations being challenged resulting in more gender equality. Mudie's poem similarly expresses this concept through the theme of respect for elders as an issues in society resulting in personal growth within an individual. Both text successfully depict the notion that people's thinking can be altered by changed perspectives.

Literature can, at times, have a fascinating connection with film. Whether it is a film or a piece of literature, both are written by someone that wants to leave an impact on an audience. However, movies and books have different roles. They each have different strong points wherein books give better characterization, stronger revelations, and inner conflict, but movies create a better mood with music and visuals, showing much more emotion. It's a totally different kind of experience, of course, and there are a number of differences between the book and the movie. The novel of 2001: A Space Odyssey by Arthur C. Clarke, for example, attempts to explain things much more explicitly than the film does, which is inevitable in a verbal medium. The movie version of 2001: A Space Odyssey, directed by Stanley Kubrick, on the other hand, is essentially a visual, nonverbal experience. It avoids intellectual verbalization and reaches the viewer's subconscious in a way that is essentially poetic and philosophic. The film thus becomes a subjective experience, which hits the viewer at an inner level of consciousness, just as music does, or painting. Utilizing its verbal medium, Clarke is able to explain his narrative, whereas Kubrick creates a visual and audial experience, through means of ambiguity, in which the viewer sees everything, is told nothing, and in which one cannot detect the presence of the film as one at all.
