Changing Places With Evil Superman
I would change places with Evil Superman. Why would I want to change places with a villain? Well being an all-powerful villain means I could force people to work together, stop corruption, and end world hunger. The entire world would be under one flag. I would spread the wealth and would let people use free enterprise to run their companies. Freedom of thought will be allowed, but elections will not. Politicians and business owners will be too afraid to be unethical; this would prevent shady practices. Spending money and resources on wars would no longer be required since the whole world will be united. Education will be required and free for the populace. Am I technically a dictator? Sure, but the world would finally acquire peace and (limited)

    In the short story "Superman and Me", the author, Sherman Alexie talks about how he came about helping Native American children become educated.

    The superhero universe is one that is vast and complex. Although my passion is helping others, if I could switch places with a superhero or villain of my choosing, I wouldn't hesitate to select a villain. More specifically, I would pick Harley Quinn. Although ostensibly, Harley is an obsessed psychopath who goes to great lengths just for her significant other, the Joker, her character goes much deeper. Harley, unlike most superheroes and villains, who are simply concerned with world domination or saving the world as a whole, is aware of social issues that are brought up today. For example, in one episode of the Batman television show, a police asks Harley to read him his rights in a sexual context, and she proceeds to teach him a lesson. Harley…

    Though when most people think of superheroes they think of the type with super powers, the original idea of the ‘superman' was developed by Friedrich Nietzsche in the 1800s. The ubermensch (literally overman in German) never had extra-ordinary powers and wasn't developed as the protector of man. Instead, the superman is a person who has overcome all the flaws of mankind and is essentially ‘perfect.' This idea, though it was thought of as an ideal goal that all people should strive for, has almost completely been used for less-than-good agendas. The details of what Nietzsche's superman is supposed to be and how that compares with how it was used to the advantage of many dictatorships and other oppressive leaders is amazing and in many ways…

    In the United States there are over 2,000 dropout factories. These are high schools with a very high number of dropouts. Making sure all students receive the best education and excel in school has been a problem for a long time. Presidents after presidents have promised change in the education system and have signed documents in hopes it would make a difference, but there has been very minimal change. In the documentary “Waiting for Superman,” David Guggenheim stresses the importance of improvement of the current education system. He presents the issue by using the three appeals, the organization of the film, and cinematic techniques. With all of this, Guggenheim was able to create a strong argument on this issue with the education system of America. After watching this film, it was very clear that there needs to be change. It will take a very long time to fix the damage that has been done, but it will not only take time, but money, research, and most importantly the motivation and willpower to make the change.…

    The documentary “waiting for Superman” deals with children with different backgrounds desperately trying with all their strength to become accepted into a charter school because the public school system is failing. The parents of the children are doing the best that they can to save them from the potential failure they could face in public schools. This reminded me of my parents, because they did all they could to get me into the charter school that I now attend, and I admit that before I did not want to enter it at all, but after I realized the chance I had and I loved it.…

    I am interested in studying film because of the impact it has had on my life personally. When I was twelve years old, I watched Davis Guggenheim’s documentary Waiting for Superman (2010). This film explored the gaps that are within the American public school system and how many people are “left behind”. At the end of the film I was in tears. I felt that it was unfair that many children were not receiving a quality education. This film not only inspired me to become a documentary filmmaker, but it made me passionate about social issues such as education inequality, whether within America or abroad. I was always interested in the production aspect of film, but it was not until my junior year of high school in my IB Film class that I became interested…

Superman started off with a grim background with the destruction of his home world and the loss of his new father on earth leaving him only with his earth mother. Having not a single person to relate to can leave a person lonely, meaning that superman was alone for a while even though he had a mother to care for him, Superman had no one that could relate to him. What Superman also teaches those who look up to him that people should not give into temptation and should, instead, stick to their moral values because someone cannot be themselves if they do not do what they believe to be right.…
