Aladdin is a love story that Disney made for kids to watch which is telling them to be yourself because being someone else can cause people to just get outrage. There was two genies that are shown in the movie, both which are complete opposites. One that is the good and quirky, who is suppose to be seen as the good one and helped Aladdin when is needed. The other genie was a vizier of the king; he want to take control by destroying everything in his wake, even if it means to be a genie himself.

    The same hero wearing a different mask appears throughout great literature and films. The “hero’s journey” motif, as Joseph Campbell, the acclaimed American mythology professor and famous author identified, has been present in all cultures since the first documented stories. From Odysseus and the other great figures of the ancient Greek myths to the more modern character of Frodo in the Lord of the Rings trilogy, the audience essentially accompanies the same hero throughout a series of stages and obstacles that compose the original heroic journey. The hero’s journey can be particularly followed in the various animated Disney films that give existence to some of the most loved heroes of all time. For instance, the successful film, Aladdin, released in 1992 and directed by Ron Clements and John Musker, brings to the public the interesting journey of a young man on a quest to find himself. The character of Aladdin fits the profile of the hero as he embarks in the hero’s journey unintentionally but proves to have undergone a complete maturation of character while attaining valuable insight about his true nature and worth by the end of the adventure.…

    Regardless of the occurring, they still are granted the three wishes options. Additionally, the wishes are bestowed from a fish and an elf, which are two unlikely things to offer up wishes. In both of the stories, the same lesson can be learned from the characters. For example, the Grimm’s story teaches that happiness is what really matter in life. Then, Yonatan’s story teaches that no matter the background of a person, everyone just wants true happiness for themselves. Even though the stories are different, they both have apparent…

    Disney has come under fire in recent years for the obvious racist and sexist visuals and sounds that appear in countless Disney children movies.

These stereotypes are found all throughout the movie and are obvious. There is no attempt to hide them; the remarks are blatantly stated and shown constantly within the natural flow of the movie.…

    Essay Question: Analyse how an idea is developed in a text (or texts) you have studied In the text, The Rugmaker of Mazar-E-Shariff, written by Robert Hillman and Najaf Mazari, an idea which is developed is identity. We can see this idea developing through the character ,Najaf Mazari. He begins living in the worn torn country of Afghanistan, then he becomes a refugee at the Woomera Detention centre and finally his visa is accepted and he begins a new life in Melbourne. His identity is developed due to these circumstances and environments he finds himself in. We first see Najaf’s identity develop while he is living in Shar Shar and Mazar-E-Shariff, in Afghanistan. His identity is developed because of his surroundings and the circumstances he faces in this environment. The first development of Najaf’s identity is shaped by him living in Afghanistan, (a worn torn country and dominated by the conflict between the Taliban and the Communists). Both of these fighting forces are searching for men of Najaf’s age to join them in battle. We see quite clearly that Najaf does not want anything to do with these groups and the war, through him hiding away for days with the constant fear of being forced to fight. We learn that Najaf does not want to be apart of these groups because he does not believe that wars and fighting is the way to solve his countries’ problems. He states that "A gun has one purpose and that purpose will not build anything, but will only tear down what others have built." The circumstance of living in a worn torn country, develops Najaf’s identity, because this instals in him a peaceful and thoughtful attitude towards conflict. Another way Najaf’s identity is developed is due to the many unfortunate family deaths Najaf and his family have to face. In the text, Najaf loses his father and two of his elder brothers, Rosal and Gorg Ali. It is Afghanistan and Hazara culture that the eldest male is to have the…

    In the article, “Cinderella and Princess Culture”, Peggy Orenstein, a contributing writer for New York Times Magazine, explores the successful “princess” market and how it negatively impacts young children. Orenstein claims that the princess culture promotes a common gender stereotype of women to young children, especially young girls; therefore, society should lessen the encouragement of being a “princess” and fortify their promotion to a more strong-willed role model (327). Although the article contains evidence to support her claim, Orenstein is unsuccessful because of the use of her biases and opinions placed throughout the article, that expresses her own negative views toward princesses and the feministic reinforcements she makes on her own daughter.…

    The third and final big difference was Grendel. The poem said that Grendel was a son of Cain. He would attack when everyone was sleeping because people were telling the creation story. In the movie, Grendel was a son of Hrothgar. Grendel attacked during the party because of the praise people would give to Hrothgar. Hollywood did this because they wanted to make them three dimensional, good versus evil. The movie removed references to God and Christianity, so that it would be more favored by the bad guy, Unferth. Hollywood also wanted to make it more appealing to the changing audiences to make them interested in watching it.…

    In all of the movies that we had watched in class, Aladdin and The Little Mermaid has the best relationship between comparing and contrasting. In both of the movies, there is one daughter in each movie who rebelled to find their true love. In The Little Mermaid, Ariel rebelled and went to the surface to search for her prince, but in Aladdin, Jasmine rebelled the law by not accepting the prince who came to see if she's the right girl for them. Not only the daughters whom rebelled, but, the main villain in each of the movies also share a similarity for how they hunger for power. Although the villain may grew into a giant monster, they were too obsessed with their power that they didn't realize what kind situation they were in.…

    There are many similarities and differences between the little mermaid and Pomona and Vertumnus. One way they are similar is that in both stories each girls has a special hiding place filled with things that she loves that very few people are let into. Pomona is enclosed in her gardens, she “ loved not woods nor rivers but a plot of ground.” Ariel also has a special place under the sea that is a grotto filled with the things she loves the human artifacts. Another similarity between the two is the fact that in both stories the girls are aided by an old possibly considered “haggered” old lady. In Ariel it is Ursula that gives Ariel that means to go onto land without Ursula Ariel would not of been able to go find Eric and fall in love with him. In Pomona it is Vertumnus disguised as an old lady that aids Pomona by telling her a tragic story about a love passed up with no way to…
