Although Waterworld is no where near the desert or the west, it definitely a western film because of the main theme of the movie. I think these two have more things in common than they do differences. Here is a little brief summary of these two movies before I compare and contrast the two. Stagecoach is a film with all the elements of a western movie. The main character is on a mission for redemption. He joins a convoy of others on a journey across the harsh western terrain while being attacked by
During the 1960s through 2000s Americans started to worry about the future of humanity with the environmental changes and the movie “Waterworld” is a clear representation of their fears about the future. Starting in the mid- twenties people wanted to preserve nature because it was beautiful and some believed humans were spiritually attached to it, but the reasons change in the 1960s. The American people, in the 1960’s, started to realized that all the new technology was not eco-friendly and that
The Climatologists nightmare has come true in this 1995 movie written by Peter Rader and David Twohy. Waterworld, starring Kevin Costner and Jeanne Tripplehorn is a movie on post-apocalyptic Earth. The beginning of the movie it says showing a globe starting to, ‘The future. The polar ice caps have melted, covering the earth with water. Those who survived have adapted to the new world.’ This statement gives hope for humanities existence however adaptation is needed to living in a world of seemingly
I watched the 1995 film, Waterworld, which had a running time of two hours and fifteen minutes. The film is set in the distant future at a time when the polar ice caps have melted and covered the globe with water, submerging the Earth’s land masses. The initial opening credits in fact, begin with the Universal Studios traditional logo of a spinning globe, but this time the melting polar ice caps are shown shrinking as the land is swallowed by the sea. It is a powerful statement even before the film

This Action, Adventure, and Drama film will keep you on the edge of your seats as you go through all the mixed emotions of Edmund Dantes. The film is directed by Kevin Reynolds who has also directed movies such as Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves, Waterworld and most recently on the History Channel, Hatfields and McCoys. It’s strange with this director that we don’t see Kevin Costner in this film, but I’m glad they kept him out. Jim Caviezel does a great job with his role. Edmond Dantes and his best
The use of cinema to display symbolic representations within society is a notion to which many films adhere. Movies can be used as a means to which producers may convey a message to the world alongside amusement. These messages, hidden in plain sight, provide the audience with a revelation or opportunity to reflect upon oneself. Symbolic representations used in film, alters society’s outlook on current issues which are either taboo to speak of, or require worldwide exposure. In the plot, which unfolded

Celebrity: (noun) 1. A well known person. 2. Fame, being famous. No doubt every simian tribe of hunter-gatherers had their local celebrities: the woman who gave birth to quintuplets, the boy who swallowed a porcupine and survived, the man who wrestled with a tyrannosaurus and... well, he probably would have died, but celebrity status would have been applied posthumously. If, however, the man wrestling with a Tyrannosaurus was a modern Hollywood celebrity, not only would he have lived, he would

Wetlands When most people think of wetlands the first thing that will pop into their mind will be visions of swamps and flooded plains. These marshy lands would seem to have no purpose, while in reality they are the most precious form of ecosystem that we have in America. Wetlands contribute to biodiversity, clean water, flood control, and provide a habitat for millions of species of plants and animals. Even with all this wetlands still face mass destruction, much like the rain forests they are
