    There are some movies that are adapted from the novel such as Harry Potter, Da Vinci Code, Twilight Saga, The Hunger Games and Lagenda Budak Setan. What are the differences between watching a movie and reading a novel? There are some contrasts between the two actions. One of the differences is by watching a movie, you just need to sit and relax. It is very easy since you only need to watch it and understands it. Furthermore, you can watch the movie while doing something else such as eating or exercising. You do not really have to focus like to imagine how the atmosphere is in the movie at that time or how a person is walking down the streets. Lastly, you can avoid disbelief since it is a multi-sensory experience. On the other hand, by reading…

    When I started reading The Lord of The Rings book 1 I thought that of a calm story about the travels of Mr.Frodo Baggins. Mr.Frodo Baggins is the main character of the novel The Lord of The Rings written by J.R.R Tolkien and is a fantasy world at war book. But as I read Lord of The Rings I saw the character Frodo Baggins turn from an adventurous hobbit to a great warrior and survivalist. I believe that this book is about war pointless because no matter what you lose lives and precious people.…

    What I love about the The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe (TLWW) is its truly beautiful and enchanting story containing a Christian allegory. The movie falters in those moments where it robs the story of its purity and truth. As a child reading the story, or having it read to you, you are taken from an ordinary world into an extraordinary one. As Lewis wrote in his essay “On Three Ways of Writing for Children” the reader of a story like TLWW “does not despise real woods because he has read of enchanted woods: the reading makes all real woods a little enchanted.”…

    I first read Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone when I was eight years old. It immediately became one of my favorite books. Over the next several years, I read the rest of the series many times, and I watched the entire series of movies almost as many times. However, I’ve never grown tired of re-reading and re-watching the first book and movie. The book, titled Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone upon initial release in 1997, was re-titled later that same year as Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone for its US release. J.K. Rowling’s 310 page masterpiece was published by Arthur A. Levine Books, a branch of Scholastic Inc. The movie, also titled Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone, was released in 2001 by Warner Bros.…

    J. R. R. Tolkien's use of similes in "The Fellowship of the Ring," like most of his figurative language and imagery in the Ring trilogy, attach characters and events to the neighboring dwarf and elven lands, to nature. He, made what novel experts of Concordia University have called a Christian epic, locates spirituality not in a Christ-like figure, such as C.S. Lewis' Aslan, but in recurrent relation to innate vigor. His nature similes ground Middle Earth folk in spiritual life. The way he chooses to depict of the elves in the "Many Meetings" chapter is commonly trite for epic characters, illustrating their shining hair and their vast height.…

    “For if you fail, then we are laid bare to the Enemy. Yet if you succeed, then our power is diminished, and Lothlórien will fade, and the tide of Time will sweep it away” (472). This quote, said by the Lady Galadriel, showed her understanding of the power of the One Ring. The One Ring had the unprecedented power to corrupt the person carrying the ring, called the ring-bearer, and turn them against their own will. The Ring messes with the holder’s mind and makes them turn to evil ways. The book The Fellowship of The Ring by J.R.R. Tolkien tells of the One Ring’s history and how it came into existence, and ultimately what must occur to destroy it. The Fellowship of The Ring focuses on the corruption of the One Ring and the power it has over the ring-bearer and those along with them, except for some.…
