A duo of Vast Broken Worlds Human Nature in Feed and Wall-E
Human nature is an interesting aspect of humanity and the way people live, behave and react. Human nature is something each individual possesses giving them unique traits as well as common ones. By comparing M.T. Anderson’s FEED and Disney’s “Wall-E” there will be a better understanding of human nature and what it prevails in terms of Destruction, Romance, and Trends. The future of humanity is said to lead to the world's end making humanity itself leaders of destruction. By comparing the novel and film a clear understanding will be made of just how destructive humans can be.
Wall-E is a film based on an apocalyptic world where life once thrived

People in this world are so dependent on their FEED “a device that was a revolution” that they don't notice the decaying world around them. The society killed off most of the resources in their world. They even managed to pollute the moon as quoted on page four ...Craters all being full of old broken shit, like domes nobody’s using anymore and wrappers and claws pg 4. Most of the animals were genetically modified like cows that were modified to be plants that grow beef. By comparing FEED to “Wall-E” we can really see just how much they have in common. Trends are also something that has a major impact on their …show more content…
There is the romance between Wall-E and Eve as well as John and Mary. Wall-E and Eve meet after Eve is sent to earth to look for any remaining plant life, not much later Wall-E saves Eve from a colossal wind storm, Wall-E then proceeds to show Eve his collection of human items.Wall-E shows Eve the plant he found and she takes it and manually shuts down sending a signal to her ship to come and retrieve her so she can finish her mission.

FEED shares a similar romance to that of John and
Love, itself, is a simple word, but no word can compare to its power. Love can lead people to their extremes and some people to their downfalls. In Feed by M.T Anderson, the story shadows two lovesick teenagers and their dreadful ending. The story commences as Titus and his friends go to the moon for spring break, where they meet Violet. Shortly after a day on the moon, Titus and his friends, including Violet, are hacked by the Coalition. After they depart back home from the hospital, Violet has a secret; a secret that it will change Titus and Violet’s life forever. Violet’s feed is malfunctioning; she is dying. All this information and Violet’s overload of her memories, bucket list made Titus part from her. In the end, Titus reunites with Violet as she dies. Titus then deliberates, “Everything Must Go” (Anderson 299). In Pixar’s Wall-E, the story set in a robotized and catastrophic earth, surveys a love story between Wall-E and Eva. Although the movie is without words, none are needed to see the love between Wall-E and Eve. Chasing Eva relentlessly, Wall-E embarks on the AXIOM. After the discovery of the plant, the captain of the AXIOM is mesmerized by the beauty of the earth. Inspired, the Captain faces a couple of battles against technology but maneuvers the ship back to earth. Even though the earth is lifeless and adulterated, they begin to nurture it with plants. In analyzing Feed by M.T Anderson and Pixar’s Wall-E, they both share some differences and similarities.
When you look at yourself in the mirror, probably, you are wondering what is human nature, how does it affect us? We all say that men’s nature at birth is good. But the truth is we realize more and more darkness of humanity along with we grow up, and that changes us inattentively. Today, I would like to present human nature base on the transition of Charlie who is the main character in Craig Silvey’s ‘Jasper Jones’.
In the human nature, naive ignorance of the world's imperfections eventually yields to the recognition that the world does contain hatred and violence. John Knowles places his novel A Separate Peace in situations which necessitate this emotional transformation. The characters become increasingly aware of the nature of the world. In addition, symbols help show the interrelation of ideas and events as they appear in Gene's subconscious mind. In this novel, setting, character, and symbols develop the theme of loss of innocence.
Oscar Wilde, an acclaimed Irish Poet, novelist, dramatist and critic once aptly commented, “Men become old, but they never become good”. The philosophical aspect of this quote relies on the basis that human beings are inherently malevolent. Through his pessimistic perspective, Wilde clearly captures the ill-disposed mindset of mankind. Moreover, there are various deductive arguments that discredit the optimistic depiction of human nature. One of the prime examples can be found in Kurt Vonnegut’s literature. In Kurt Vonnegut’s Cat's Cradle, through the illustration of his characters, the author symbolizes the four elements of human fallibility.
The topic of human nature, in its pure form, will tend to use its human power for evil rather than good. This topic is illustrated in Lord of the Flies in a series of quotes that show how a boy named Jack acts when his human nature in its pure form takes over. This first quote establishes that Jack’s human nature in pure form will eventually show itself, by showing that Jack is on an island with only himself and other kids: “Beyond the hollow was the square top of the mountain and soon they were standing on it. They had guessed before that this wa...
Human nature has many elements that reveal the growth and personality of a person. In Markus Zusak’s “The Book Thief”, the author successfully portrays various aspects of human nature through Hans’ conflicts that originate from the tough reality that he lives in. Elements of human nature can be seen as a result of Hans’ constant struggles with guilt, kindness, and love.
The main arguments in The End of Nature is that as a result of human cons...
In spite of this, this novel proves that civilization has the power to keep one’s innate cruelty under control. The instance of a society running rampant with evil is seen when the group of boys abandon the civilized behaviors of the adult world, and predominately begin to take in Jack’s vicious influence on them. Thus, as the boys began to act more barbaric and savage, they do not feel the need to listen to Ralph's wisdom and guidance anymore. If they had listened to him, Piggy and Simon, in all likelihood, would not have had to die, and many wise plans would have been followed. Overall, the author reveals that due to the savage and violent nature of humans, qualities of physical power are more prominent than the often under looked qualities of civility and common intelligence in
The Road is a phenomenal example of how raw human nature shapes peoples’ decisions. It addresses the behaviors of people neither informed nor controlled by a social order. In the essence of The Road, people’s actions are highly dependent on the person’s basic needs. A lack of basic human needs often results in the more disturbing view of human nature. (Gilbert pg. 43) Betrayal, suicide, and cannibalism are all examples of behaviors that human nature can bring out of people.
Human nature is the characteristics, feelings and behavioral traits of humankind. Humans are capable of expressing different kinds of emotions such as joy, frustration, despair, remorse, and other forms of emotions depending on the situations they are encountering. In the film ‘Minority Report’, various kinds of human characteristics have been portrayed. The view of human nature posited in this film is assuming that all humankind is likely to commit crimes regardless of their position.
... influential on a person’s life may be the reason why it is so widely used as that subject or theme of every kind of art. Romance, which is the emotional attachment between to people who love each other, is a common way that artist can visually demonstrate love in their artwork. Although the materials and colors have a lot to do with the visual aspect of demonstrating love in art work, the aspect of love that art work shows as well as the history behind the piece its self can cause the artwork to not only be about love, but also about the romance in love. Many would agree that LOVE and The Kiss both demonstrate love, however, The Kiss is more romantic out of the two.
The movie is set about 700 years into the Earth’s future. The Earth was shown to be completely contaminated so that no more plant and animal could survive, and the last of the surviving human population were safely taken into the spaceship Axiom, where they were originally planned to live for 5 years until Earth becomes habitable again. WALL-Es, which are cleaning robots were tasked to perform the clean-up operation. However, the clean-up operation was unsuccessful and the supposed five-year cruise turned into a seven centuries in space, and only a single WALL-E was left. Still, WALL-E continued to perform his tasks, building structures from garbage. One day, he found a healthy plant, placed in the shoe filled with soil, and took it to his trailer. Later, WALL-E met a new robot named EVE deployed by the
WALL-E begins by showing Earth as a dystopian, apocalyptic wasteland almost entirely devoid of life. Remnants of civilization hint at Earth’s previous habitation, which ended following an apparent total environmental collapse. Shots of dust and garbage are indicative of the anthropogenic nature of this collapse (Andrew Stanton). This presents background information without the need for expository narration.
Both movies, Feed and Wall-E are similar to our world today and also the future. First, these stories have a way of showing us what our future may be like. Also, the problems our world has now and problems we may face in the future. And last, this book and movie show how our world is controlled and how things work. They are both critical in our current world problems because they worry about the same problems we do in real life and may have to worry about for our future world.
The biggest blight on the face of the planet is mankind. The major problems facing the world today can all be traced in one way or another back to the interference of man. The human race has yielded too much power for the past several thousands of years and it is time for a stern, quick change in the world. Mankind has walked with impunity from place to place upon the face of this planet and only in a few instances has it rendered anything other than death or chaos. My purpose with this essay is to illustrate that the human race is almost not worth running. Creatures endowed with such inborn capabilities have sunken to a level below any seen before. While capable of such acts of beauty and wonder, they instead choose to act selfishly and without reason.
