The lion king and the matrix both have similarities when it comes to leadership,however they both also have differences within them too. For instance, in the matrix the agents listened to the their ranking one just because it was his status. In the lion king the lions listened to Scar because he was the “king” not because they liked or agreed with anything he was saying or doing such as letting the hyenas in the pridelands. This shows they are at level one leadership, however all five levels are represented in both movies. Level two is presented clearly presented in the matrix when the crew reacts positively to Morpheus without threats or presenting his status. Pumba listens to Tamone in the lion king for two reasons one,because he wants to, and two he might slightly have a few screws loose making him think Tamone is right. …show more content…
However, in the lion king Timon and Pumba both are very different from each other they tend to but heads more than accomplish anything.When they needed to distract the hyenas they disagreed on how to go about it , in the end however they do work quite well together because their friendship is their bond which makes them a good team.
Verbal communication is very important to any movie that is not designed to be silent. on the contrary however, all other ways of communication are also important. Such as nonverbal looks for example when the agent came in the room to interrogate Neo his face was very stern and hard .He was saying without saying a word that he meant business. In the lion king nonverbal communication means a completely different thing. When scar backs away from Simba you could obviously tell he was utterly petrified.Although the two movies undoubtedly had their differences they both have uncanny
Paulo Coelho’s novel The Alchemist and the Disney film The Lion King directed by Allers and Minkoff,
Ray Bradbury's novel Fahrenheit 451 speculates on a future society in which there is no real knowledge, just a façade of lies because there are no testaments of truth, books. This book shares a plot much like that of the Warner Brothers' blockbuster, Matrix, in which the human race is kept in the shadow of the truth by being put into a virtual reality. In both stories a destroyed civilization is being suppressed by an evil leader. Also, in both of these works have an average man rise from the ashes of his previous life and become instruments in the changing of the way life is. Of course, no story would be complete without the tenacious leaders who push the chosen ones to become what they are. Morpheus is the leader of the light, as is Faber, Beatty is the evil which replicates himself onto others to keep them in ignorance, just like Agent Smith physically replicates himself. And the powerless which becomes powerful, the one, Neo is the mirror of Montag, the fireman.
In Book VII of The Republic, Plato tells a story entitled "The Allegory Of The Cave." He begins the story by describing a dark underground cave where a group of people are sitting in one long row with their backs to the cave's entrance. Chained to their chairs from an early age, all the humans can see is the distant cave wall in from of them. Their view of reality is soley based upon this limited view of the cave which but is a poor copy of the real world.
Imagine living through life completely bound and facing a reality that doesn’t even exist. The prisoners in Plato’s “Allegory of the Cave” are blind from true reality as well as the people in the movie “The Matrix” written and directed by the Wachowski brothers. They are given false images and they accept what their senses are telling them, and they believe what they are experiencing is all that really exists. Plato the ancient Greek philosopher wrote “The Allegory of the Cave”, to explain the process of enlightenment and what true reality may be. In the movie “The Matrix”, Neo (the main character) was born into a world of illusions called the matrix. His true reality is being controlled by the puppet- handlers called the machines who use the human body as a source of energy. In the movie, Neo, finds and alternate reality and he has to go on a journey to discover himself and what is around him. Much like “The Allegory of the Cave” the prisoners in a dark underground cave, who are chained to the wall, have a view of reality solely based upon this limited view of the cave which is but a poor copy of the real world. Both the prisoners of the cave, and Neo from the Matrix, have to transcend on the path of ‘enlightenment’ to know the truth of their own worlds.
For the common moviegoer and book aficionado, the movie, The Matrix and Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? are bizarre and peculiar. These works are not the usual themes of normal movies and books. These works have a lot of elements in common. Both works have matrices. The movie and the book stress the idea of reality. In both works the idea of what s real and what s not is the central theme.
The pristine 1933 King Kong was constructed as a movie: to convey a story to entertain an audience. Peter Jackson’s 2005 remake took the substructure for King Kong and expanded upon it in virtually every way in order to “make again” the astoundment of the original for a modern-day audience. Audiences received the first King Kong very well. The stop-motion sequences of Kong were astounding for their time and the movie grossed over $90,000 in its beginning weekend. In order to bank upon its prosperity again, sequels were made and thus in 1976 a remake was made to amend upon the original. Paramount updated the movie to color, altered the story, and cast Jeff Bridges, a widely popular actor of the time, as the lead actor. Although the movie received stirred reviews, it did exceptionally well in the box office and tripled Paramount’s initial budget for the motion picture. Even though the movie wasn’t “as good” as the original, audiences still paid money to view it because of that hope that they would feel like they once did when they visually perceived the first King Kong. The remake add...
Hope is the expectation and the desire of an event to happen. For many people, having hope is to see a cruel reality with a positive feeling. From hope, faith comes in. Having faith in something unrealistic motivates people to keep moving forward and try the best of their abilities to make something happen. Most of today’s religions, especially Christianity, based most of their doctrine in the faith of salvation from Jesus Christ‘s sacrifice and the hope of living for eternity, if we obey the laws of God in accordance to the bible. Similarly, this hope and faith system can be seen in The Matrix, when Morpheus propagates his belief that “the one” will end the war that Zion has been fighting with the machines for long time. Evidence from the history of Christianity, along with the story line and symbolism found on The Matrix demonstrate that there are parallelism laying between these two, along with the manifestation of faith that makes everything possible to happen.
Firstly, in Julius Caesar by William Shakespeare, leadership expresses itself as dominance. The first way that leadership presents itself in Julius Caesar is through the dominance of the common people. In the first lines of the play, Marullus, a man that is in the upper class tells the people to; "Be gone!/Run to your houses, fall upon your knees, / Pray to the gods to intermit the plague / That seeds must light on this ingratitude." Here dominance leads the pleabians into doing what Marullus wants to do. In addition, dominance rules over the common people when Mark Antony uses his speech to control the actions of the plebeians; "I will not do them wrong; I rather choose / To wrong the dead, to wrong myself and you, / Than I will wrong such honourable men"(III.ii.145 Shakespeare). Here Mark Antony, using obvious innuendos, leads the people of Rome to believe that if they agree with Brutus and Cassius they will be wronging the dead, Mark Antony, and themselves. Mark Antony then uses this fire that he kindled to lead to people into mutiny. In this case, Mark Antony uses his speech to dominate the feelings and ultimately the actions of the common peop...
Communication between people is done in two ways: verbally and nonverbally. Those are layman terms. The language of verbal communication is described as digital code, whereas nonverbal communication is called analog code. The main difference that you could probably presume is that verbal communication involves a language, or better yet, spoken words. Inversely, nonverbal communication integrates the use of symbols or gestures to communicate an idea or feeling.
For my video paper I chose to do a Pixar movie called Finding Nemo. Although Pixar movies are more aimed for the younger generations, it is becoming more popular for these movies to be introduced in the classrooms. In our DeVito text it shows and explains all the different forms of communication that can be related back to Finding Nemo. Along with other Pixar movies, they all portray many different aspects of communication. Nonverbal communication is presented in the movie by using gestures/movement. Although cartoon characters are not actually real people in the movie, they are created by real people who have experienced nonverbal communication in their lives.
Also, it identifies furthermore other aspects around communication that we commonly don’t think of, for example; personal appearance. The way we display ourselves expresses volumes. Therefore, it also shapes our listening, and observation of what others are essentially communicating to us. You could be putting off nonverbal cues that symbolize something other than what you are essentially verbalizing. I will be utilizing this article for my research paper. I especially understood how it first broke everything down for myself, but there was a pure concept of understanding the material. I found this article tremendously
Verbal communication is the form of communication that the majority of the world uses today it’s expressed in spoken words. Non Verbal can be conveyed with a smile, frown, rolling of the eyes and in some case the wink of an eye. Facial expressions behavior plays a big part in non verbal communication. Our expression will say things to others that we want say out loud. Gestures are another form of non verbal such as pointing, crossing of the arms and clapping of the hands or all gestures that are non verbal. Appearance is often over looked when we think of non verbal communication. When see someone in boots, blue jeans, leather vest, and tattoos we assume that they are a biker that just one example appearance communication. Face to Face is a preferred method that is used to close the deal deals with body language 50%, tone of your voice 40% and your words 10%.
We, as humans, have the propensity to vary in how well we encode and decode messages that are both written and spoken. This is because people tend to range in a variety of highs and lows with regard to their verbal language abilities. This would a lot for differences in nonverbal communication as well. Nonverbal communication refers to the exchange of information between people and an explanation or establishment of the meaning of information by any means other than the use of spoken or written words. It includes message through a multitude of behaviors (expressive channels) such as facial expressions, bodily movements, vocal tone and pitch, and other channels that are comprised of a variety of cues related to the encoding and the decoding of messages. The communication and interpretation of nonverbal behavior draws on tacit, implicit knowledge that all human beings possess (Ambady and Rosenthal, 775).
Nonverbal communication has been in people’s lives for as long as we could communicate as a species. Dr. Albert Mehrabian, author of Silent Messages, found that “7% of any message is conveyed through words, 38% through certain vocal elements, and 55% through nonverbal
There are different types of communication (verbal, nonverbal, paralinguistic). Verbal communication is communicating with words. For instance, an individual speaks to another at a business meeting regarding profit margins. Second, nonverbal communication is communicating without the use of words but through gesture, body language, facial expression and eye contact (Baron, Branscombe, Byrne). Also these physical expressions can provide powerful and valuable information about others’ current feelings and reactions without the need of words. Lastly paralinguistic is defined as the use of emotional expression, gestures, and the location of the body in relation to the other's body, eye contact, and level of voice instead of verbally expressing these cues (Triandis). Additionally, paralinguistic is also known as paralanguage as a way to modify or nuance meaning, or convey emotion, with the use of pitch, volume, and intonation (Triandis). For instance, as described by Triandis’ article Culture and Communication, “in Bulgaria and south India a nod means "no,” and a shake of the head, means "yes".” It’s interesting how Triandis describes the amount of difficulty it was to compre...
