Watching a good movie is fun, but evaluating a movie and analyzing it to dissect its similarities and differences with a similar movie is much more engaging.

Brubaker and Cool Hand Luke are different men on the same mission. Despite their separate approaches, they stand for the same thing: reform and hope. Brubaker and Cool Hand Luke come across differently, by their actions, their positions, and their affiliation to the other prisoners. As the new warden of the prison, Brubaker could have been seen as just another person trying to inflict suffering and punishment onto the prisoners. Luke, being the new guy, is easily just another Newcock. The difference
Miles Morales as Spider-Man Miles Morales (Spider-Man) Miles Morales (Spider-Man) Okay, Sam Wilson is one example; but, we also have Miles Morales who is the new African-American Spider-Man; but, not only that, he is in (was) an interracial relationship with Kaite Bishop.

Daredevil, The Dark Hero Daredevil is not the typical hero. He is dark, realistic, and in agony. He is not the average “good guy” hero that is normally portrayed. Daredevil, aka, Matt Murdock, is much more complex and the TV show and graphic novels about him express how he balances between the gray area of good and evil. He shows how human behavior is not simple and has many conflicts. Daredevil himself is conflicted by wanting to uphold the law as a lawyer. However, at night as a vigilante, he
Daredevil Narrative The narrative has an explanatory function (Jean-Francois Lyotard, 1984) and is used in the stereotypical way to of flashbacks explain the back-story of a superhero. Daredevil starts with a flashback of how he ‘gained his powers’, which was through a car accident and chemical spill which caused him to lose his sight as a child.

Of course practice is dictated by ones determination, skill is acquired with the combination of practice and good genes. And the planning has to do with physics. Sure one could just
What does Nietzsche’s Mr. Daredevil-Curiosity report, when he metaphorically peers into the workshop within which moral ideals are fabricated (GM I.14)? How convincing are his claims? Humanity, according to Nietzsche, is infected by an illness. It is the kind of illness that has infected every single man, religious or non-religious alike. It is his aim to release his readers from the illness. In much the same way as a doctor, he wishes to do so by primarily sourcing the cause of the illness, and
