World Is Not Enough Themes
"The World Is Not Enough" is a great action-adventure movie with exciting stunt scenes, exotic locations, beautiful women and traditional Bond one-liners. Pierce Brosnan carries on the role of the world's most famous secret agent, James Bond in which was established by Sean Connery in 1962's "Doctor No". Since it is also the 19th installment to the longest running film series in history, comparing this one to the older movies is like comparing one athlete to another. But hey, I guess that's the fun of it all.<br><br>To get more in depth of the film, let's see if the traditional Bond trademarks live up to their roles.<br><br><b>1.</b> Bond…James Bond.

From the Millennium Dome on the banks of Thames to the adventurous oil fields of Azerbaijan, exotic backgrounds and locations are the backbone of a James Bond film and "The World Is Not Enough" lives up to the die-hard 007 fan.<br><br>For the most part, I enjoyed watching "The World Is Not Enough" so much that I've seen it four times. Michael Apted directed this thiller and does a pretty good job. Neal Purvis and Bruce Feirstein are the writers for this Bond film that I felt should have left some of the script from the earlier drafts onto the final draft. I read part of the script six months prior to the film release and noticed right away that there were some things that were left out that would have made the film much better. Also, I felt that the switching of locations was used too much for a Bond film and felt the director could have done a little more to make the story run more smoothly. The film had some "old school" elements that were missing in "GoldenEye" and "Tomorrow Never Dies". I enjoyed watching the stunts that were in the

    Max And Filbrick Themes

    As a reader, I am rather prone to sympathizing with Max and Freak in each chapter, and as said in earlier responses, Rodman Filbrick has his ways of making me care about Max and Freak as if they were real-life people, and how when something happens, how the characters feel is how I feel. To set me up to be unable to put the book down, or, in other words, be very attached to the story, Rodman Filbrick would need to use a good mixture of relatable and adverse themes. The main themes in the first few chapters, which were friendship and adventure, were universal parts of life that everyone must have went through, at one point or another.…

    So here I am feeling rather shaken and stirred that Bond has quite literally made the double 0, managing to have scraped up a spot alongside the literary greats as number ninety-seven in Time Magazine’s ‘Top 100 Books Of All Time’. This may not come to a surprise to most of you, as the several books and films make it clear that the popular franchise is an icon in pop culture. But yet, I think we are forgetting that a classic should be more than just petty delight.…

    The Chosen: Themes

    • 422 Words
    • 2 Pages

    An important theme in Book One of the “The Chosen” is to at least listen to what people have to say, especially if that someone is trying to make amends. “’You did a foolish thing, Reuven. You remember what the Talmud says, if a person comes to apologies for having hurt you, you must listen and forgive him” (David Malter, Pg. 63). Many events have led up to Danny and Reuven meeting each other, all of them very important. After his father’s speech about listening, Reuven gives Danny a chance to speak. Listening takes much patience and can give important information. Reuven’s choice to listen is essential to the beginning of their relationship, because for Danny, it gives someone that he can let his previously unexpressed thoughts and feeling out to. Danny would never have been able to let his thoughts out, because they would seem like the talk of an apikorsim to the people of his community. Reuven gives Danny a way to break his inner silence. When Reuven had ignored Danny in their first encounter, he almost jeopardized their future together. If Danny had not been persistent in explaining himself to Reuven, they may not have become friends as soon as they did. Their friendship not only benefited Danny but also Reuven. Being involved with Danny’s life gave Reuven a chance to properly utilize his new found perception of the world to analyze different situations. It is seen that Reuven’s actions have had a profound effect on Danny’s life. During Danny and Reuven’s college years, Reb prohibits them from being together or having a conversation. Reuven became angry with Danny and refused to notice the silent communication that Danny offered when they looked each other in the eye. Reuven did not listen to the silence at first; not until Danny tried a different approach by smiling at Reuven. This was Reuven’s first experience with hearing silence, but Reuven did not notice that this is what he was doing. Later, in Book Three, Reuven’s lack of…

    A Realistic Theme Is Best

    • 1299 Words
    • 6 Pages

    How could someone possibly sleep for twenty years? Rip Van Winkle managed to, thanks to a barrel of gin! This is more interesting than wearing a black veil and making people scared. Recently in literature class we read two stories, Washington Irving’s “Rip Van Winkle” and Nathaniel Hawthorne’s “The Ministers Black Veil”. It is this writer’s opinion that the second story was the best story-but why? The answer to this question begins by examining each author’s purpose for writing his story. When Washington Irving wrote Rip Van Winkle he wanted to create a satire that makes you think about how progress is for the best or not. It also makes fun of British diction and British literary snobbery. This is more satisfying to read than a Minister scaring people with a Black Veil on his face. The two stories present different styles of writing and their characters are vastly different. Once again, Irving’s story has a more elevated diction and complex syntax to make a point. Finally, a good story must be relevant. It’s theme must be timeless, and once more relevant to today than ever. For this four reasons is that I vote “rip Van Winkle” the best story. It has a more realistic themes, the know conflict, interesting setting, and its unreliable narrators that enrich the stories ideas.…
