Dr. Zaius

Dr. Strangelove is a comedy about the Cold War intended for a young adult or adult audience due to the topic of the Cold War not being understood easily by children. The reason for creating this film is for the comedic spin on a very serious historical event, making it truly a one of a kind movie. The point that this director was trying to make was that anything could be seen as funny with the right wording. This could be seen as controversial because war is not something that should be taken lightly

There are the non-believers, saying that you are responsible for your actions and not controlled by this so called ‘destiny,’ able to change your life at any point you wish to. Demonstrated in stories such as Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol and Dr. Seuss’ The Lorax, these tales showcase how a crabby old miser and a mysterious man change the course of their futures. Meanwhile, there are many stories, myths, and even religions that emphasize how fate controls your life; that you are on a predestined

Focusing his purpose on informing the audience of the missed opportunities children face when beginning language, W.H. Auden expresses his opinions by providing information as well as examples of what children experience when entering the world of language. He argues that children are able to grasp more than people realize and the fact that authors undermine children’s mental capacity “is utter nonsense”. Using an informational and persuasive style of writing, Auden achieves his purpose by displaying

Theodor Seuss Geisel once said, “Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory.” History contains both good and bad events, but it seems that more of the bad events, or memories, have been documented. The reason for this is to prevent society from repeating these same bad actions. I too have had both good and bad memories. One good memory for me was doing loops in an old biplane with my dad. A bad, or sad, memory is one that I did not experience first-hand. It is

artist to listen to is Kendrick Lamar. Kendrick Lamar is an American rapper and songwriter that was born in 1987 and raised in Compton, California. He is signed to the record labels Top Dawg Entertainment and Aftermath, the latter of which was founded by Dr. Dre. I know what you’re probably thinking.

Skrillex and Diplo released a music video this morning for their first Top 20 single together, "Where Are Ü Now." But the two musical co-producers, who sometimes go by the name Jack Ü, don't make so much as a cameo in the video, which gives all the screen time to featured vocalist, Justin Bieber. In the video, Bieber is show against a backdrop of fan-made art as his skin gets transformed into a graffiti canvas. The video was filmed in Los Angeles and first premiered this morning on Good Morning America

Do positive, negative, or in-between effects equal the question? Think, what would you do in your own home and possibly to yourself? Thinking is the exact catechism of ecocriticism; the study of literature and environment focused on our economy. People have squabbled with the situation… First, chemicals such as 2,4-D and Agent Orange. Second, preservation and replantation. Third, deforestation using the analogy such as humans:materials::axe:deforestation. Also, of equal importance is the matter

“Delaney, it's time.” Chorda smiled, bright and bitter. Long claws extending from his fingertips. Memories of Chorda tearing the queen's throat out flooded back. After that, he ripped her heart out of her frail chest. Every thought more vivid than the last. I looked into his burning eyes filled with hunger. I was going to be put to death, the same way the queen was. “Chorda, you don't have to do this. If you take my heart it won't cure you, you'll still be a monster.” I tried to say that in a

The literary school of criticism which best interprets Dr. Seuss’ “The Grinch Who Stole Christmas” is the archetypal lens. The poem tells the tale of a Grinch who’s attempt to stop Christmas is relinquished when he is moved by the Christmas spirit of Whoville. Through the usage of character and thematic archetypes, Seuss is able to strengthen the impact of his poem. In the poem, the Grinch is clearly an example of the villain, seen in how “his heart was two sizes too small,” a metaphor for

To show satire in Dr Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb, director Stanley Kubrick uses parody, exaggeration, and incongruity. One effective method Kubrick uses is parody. In the movie, Kubrick plays on actors and typical stereotypes. Major Kong, as played by Louis Burton Lindley, Jr. or Slim Pickens, is a play on the American Cowboy. When Major Kong goes down to the bombs to open the doors he gets dropped with the bomb. As he is seen leaving the plane, Major Kong rides
