"The more successful the villain, the more successful the picture," Alfred Hitchcock, the 'Master of Suspense,' once quoted. A great villain is arguably what will make or break a movie, television show, or piece of literature. In the movie Toy Story 3, Lots-O'-Huggin' Bear's role as the villain is what made the movie an amazing ending to the trilogy. Despite his friendly first impression, Lotso's ambitions were a far cry away from morally good. Hateful, manipulative, and controlling, Lotso painted the perfect image of a villain. Like many great villains, Lotso became the hateful toy he was because of his past. Once a little girl's favorite toy, Lotso held a special place in the heart of Daisy, his owner. One day, Lotso and a few other toys went to a picnic with Daisy, only to be accidentally left behind. Love for Daisy encouraged the three toys to make the long and treacherous journey back home. What they saw there, however, was not what they expected. Lotso was replaced by another bear toy. It was here that the cuddly bear took a …show more content…
turn for the worst. Bitterness and hatred sprung from the hurt of being abandoned, and Lotso allowed these dark feelings to rule the rest of his life and fuel most of his decisions. He established the mindset that no child can truly love a toy and that they are all destined for the dump. In Toy Story 3, he told Woody, "I didn't throw you away; your kid did. Ain't one kid that ever loved a toy really." This quote demonstrates the scorn and contempt that Lotso felt. "The guy may seem plush and huggable on the outside, but inside, he's a monster." Buttercup, a stuffed unicorn, once said this about Lotso. A master at manipulation and deception, the fluffy and cuddly appearance Lots-O'-Huggin' bear put forward bore no resemblance to his monstrous intentions. When he alone was replaced by Daisy, he convinced Big Baby and Chuckles (the two toys who were abandoned at the park with him) that they were replaced as well and that Daisy no longer loved any of them. Although this was a lie, Lotso's expert manipulation skills convinced his companions otherwise. When Woody and his friends first arrived at Sunnyside Daycare, Lotso put these abilities to use again, convincing the group of toys that the daycare was the best place for toys to be. They were also lead to believe that he was a kind and caring teddy bear, which was far from the truth. Being the leader of Sunnyside Daycare, Lotso ruled with an iron fist.
Rather than being an elected and peaceful president, Lotso much more resembled a dictator that forced his way to the top of the system. His ability to manipulate others, as mentioned previously, earned him a pair of henchmen. He controlled them too, and they obeyed without question, doing all of their leader's dirty work. Aside from his lackeys, Lotso also had a cymbal-banging monkey and truck toys to watch over the security cameras and outside exits. With complete control over them, he had the power to monitor and regulate just exactly which toys got in and –most importantly- out of the daycare. With such overwhelming dominance over the building, one would assume that it was enough for him. Unfortunately, it wasn't, and Lotso decided to even go as far as capturing Buzz Lightyear and brainwashing him, effectively turning him into another minion that Lotso could
control. Huggable and strawberry-scented, not many people would immediately pin this teddy bear as a villain. However, if one was to dig deeper and pull away the façade, they would see that he was a hateful, controlling, and manipulative mastermind that would stop at nothing to achieve his evil ends. One of the most memorable characters in Toy Story 3, Lotso was undoubtedly why the movie was successful.

Woody’s courage and selflessness is shown when he is contemplating on if he should go back to save his friends from the torture at Sunnyside Daycare. He discusses among his new pals on what he should do. They all told him not to go because it would be a suicide mission, but he does not listen. At this moment he says, “ I don’t care how dangerous it may be. I need to go save my friends to go back home to Andy.” (Toy Story 3). This shows that although Woody knows that he might get caught and be tortured, he does not care. All he cares about is being able to go back to Andy with everybody. Also, Woody is a selfless leader because he decides that he can not leave his friends alone at Sunnyside. Instead of staying in the state of comfort he was in, Woody decided that he needs to save his friends from the evil, pink, strawberry- scented bear, named Lotso.

After he uncovers Teddy’s paper world, the uncle reacts in a manner of ignorance and derision, mocking him for his decision to occupy himself with paper dolls. The uncle dubs Teddy as a “great big lummox … playing with paper dolls”, insulting Teddy for his hobbies with a tone of amusement and hysteria. In spite of Teddy’s agitation, the uncle prefers to make a mockery out of Teddy rather than accepting his unique hobbies, suggesting the uncle’s belief that Teddy’s activities are unfitting of someone of his age. In addition, Teddy’s uncle further aggravates Teddy by continuously ridiculing him, leading him to eventually destroy his treasured paper world. Despite Teddy’s attempts at validating the reality of his paper dolls, the uncle “burst into laughter, his cheeks the colour of a tomato.” Teddy’s uncle persistence in mocking Teddy implies his disapproval of Teddy’s world, believing that his world is ludicrous and absurd for someone of his age to be occupied with. The sustained laughter of Teddy’s uncle is explicit and deliberate, intended to warn Teddy against his immature hobby, an evident symbol of society’s expectation of
Boo eventually becomes a hero by the brave actions he takes to protect the children. Jem grew from an immature child to a brave young man. They all face their inner fears as well as the rules of society and stand up for what they believe in. Harper Lee’s classic novel To Kill a Mockingbird shows the difference between right and wrong in the actions of Atticus, Boo and Jem.
In conclusion, having empathy for the monster has proven that the monster was good and was not created to be evil. The people he encountered and his creator has influenced him to change his behavior to do evil intentions. The outcome would have been different if Victor created the monster in the image of a better person that is acceptable and can easily blend in with

As the story progresses, Boo becomes more of a symbol of kindness and bravery than that of the "town freak" which he is made out to be. Boo leaves presents for the children in the hollow trunk of an old tree, as well as covers Scout with a blanket during Miss Maudie's fire. However, it is not until he saves Jem and Scout's life from the hands of the deranged Mr. Ewell, that Boo shows his true heroic character. Even though Boo is a physically weaker man, he shows no fear when it comes to protecting Jem and Scout's life.
All he did was help her, but when she “sinned” and tried to seduce Tom she couldn’t think of what to do so she just blamed the innocent man. The next major symbol of the book is the character of Boo Radley. Boo Radley is never proved to be a bad person to the children, but they still have a negative perspective on him. Scout and jem later on see that he is a decent person when Boo fixes Jem’s pants.
Yano, perfectly supports the veiled truth of Hello Kitty and Uyehara uses the Hello Kitty Doll to symbolize the “mute[ed] presence that does not look back at you or judge”, an “Asian female” who is obedient and listens. In scene two, the Hello Kitty Doll would be the alternate persona of the VEGETABLE GIRL and MAD KABUKI WOMAN, “the submissive Asian female, the wildcat, and the innocent little doll” (Prasso 149, 150), all signs of Yellow Fever. Uyehara placed the Hello Kitty Doll and all the accessories as part of the text to communicate to the audience that Yellow Fever is considered a ridiculous fetishism of the Asian female

Top managers should be reminded that they are ultimately responsible for the quality of a product and the company. Quality management is one of the keys. By defining quality in operational terms, understanding the costs and benefits of quality, recognizing the consequences of poor quality, and recognizing the need for ethical behavior (Stevenson, 2012), will lead to a more productive operation. If Toys, Inc. specifically doesn’t want to hire additional positions to inspect quality they could outsource to a company such as SATRA whom from its website states, “SATRA can assess the risk of injury from a toy, as well as carry out analysis for the presence of restricted metals such as lead, chromium and mercury(2015).” Quality is the ability of a product or service to consistently meet or exceed customer expectations (Stevenson, 2012). Quality when it comes to manufacturing of toys especially those that have moving parts also brings in safety concerns. “Market watch officials and technological experts have warned parents to pay more attention to the quality of toys they purchase to better protect their children (Hazell, C 2011).” Parents will associate a poorly made toy, especially one that already knows that it’s poorly made by having a trade-in program as potentially dangerous for their son or daughter. Continuing to have customer dissatisfaction will further question the quality of our product and in turn the safety of our
