Star Wars versus Star Trek. Marvel versus DC. Gandalf versus Dumbledore. Batman versus Superman. Almost everyone that could be asked could pick a side on these topics and their even smaller debated parts: Jedi versus Sith, Captain Kirk versus Captain Piccard, etc. Superhero movies are almost always a hit every year for the summer box office. Except superheroes were not always everyone 's favorite, nor socially accepted in America. This was originally subject matter that stayed within the confines

HUNGER GAMES vs STAR WARS In the story of hunger games and star wars there hero's journey had many differences and similarities. Some examples of this could come from the Ordinary world, Refusal, and Mentor/Helper. Some ways these to story could be different or the same are… One way these story are different is the refusal. I say this because they are basically the opposite of each other. For example, Katniss really didn't refuse she volunteered to go to the hunger games. For luke he said no i'm

Trek to Indus Valley Why this Trip? This trip drives you through the absolute most beguiling towns of Sham area and all around safeguarded antiquated religious communities of Ladakh.

do not conform to these standards. Our society’s value of the Neo-Classicisms emphasis on ‘…emotions governed by personal restraint, decorum and discipline…’ and the value of intellect and reason is highlighted through the correlation between Star Trek and If (Stanners, 2009). Towards the beginning of the film, a flashback of Spock’s childhood occurs. As he is neither human or Vulcan, Spock is bullied and lashes out at his fellow classmates. This allows the audience to understand the strict class

“Live long and prosper.” Those four words are iconic; evocative of daring space adventures, thinly veiled 1960s-era anti-communist propaganda, and one of pop culture’s most famous friendships. In the summer before my junior year of high school they also became my mantra. That summer will forever be marked by days spent on a squishy orange couch in the basement of a house in Dublin, Ohio; laughing uncontrollably over the daring and absurd voyages of the Starship Enterprise with first two people I

The Great Trek was migrate of Dutch colonists fleeing from British rule, causing them to migrate to South Africa to begin a new way of life. The colonists faced many persecutions and multiple hardships before, during, and after the migration (1). It began in the homeland of these people, history teaches people when a group of individuals face persecution, relocation soon follows to start a better life suitable for the person(1). The act of moving was a type rebellion against the policies the British

While the age-old question of “Star Wars or Star Trek?” is based on personal preference, there are many similarities and differences between the two. Star Wars, though it has a larger fan base, is not necessarily the reigning champion when it comes to storylines, nor is Star Trek the winner with its scientific background and hopeful prospects of the future. Sci-Fi, or science fiction, has been a genre that has fascinated the masses for generations. Having had the space race end in 1957, the space

How Star Trek revolutionized american television In the late 1960's, America was at a turning point in history. Revolutionary civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr. had been assassinated. President Johnson had just passed the fair housing act (the last bill to be passed in the civil rights act of 1968), fully recognizing african americans as legal citizens attentions. From the start the show was like nothing else on television at the time. Gene Roddenberry the creator of Star Trek was all

the quote from Star Trek, "Survival is Insufficient." This quote means that just surviving is not enough, we have to live and enjoy. Dieter, an actor, says that the quote is lousy and a Shakespeare quote would be more profound, but a Shakespearean quote would not be more appropriate. Dieter has a problem with the quote being from star trek because of the lack of literary merit the show holds. However, Shakespeare would not be more appropriate because both Shakespeare and Star Trek are a part of their

My primary source is from a TED speech of George Takei, an 80-year-old Japanese-American actor and activist, a grandson of a first-generation Japanese immigrant. With his face smiling, George Takei started his 2014 presentation by introducing himself as “a veteran of the starship Enterprise soaring through the galaxy, with a crew of people from all over the world with different ethnicity, boldly exploring strange new world and seeking new civilizations”. “The crew of people” simply implicates the
