Dark Of The Moon Analysis

745 Words3 Pages

For one thing, Dark of the Moon is a significant improvement over its disastrous predecessor Revenge of the Fallen. The franchise exists to show giant talking robots bashing into each other causing colossal destruction. This doesn’t mean that is bad at all. We want to see those things rather than paying attention to the humans. The title is called Transformers, and we pay our money to the theaters to see actual Transformers clamoring war with giant explosions no matter what. Weirdly, the movie delivers the satisfying yet entertaining robot destructions, but the lead up to the 1-hour long Chicago alien invasion is unbelievably wearisome and draws us a big yawn.

With regards to the title, Dark of the Moon, the film sets up an absorbing and intriguing plot line where it opens with a giant clamorous battle on Cybertron as an alien ship crashes to the Moon. The year 1969, which the moon landing occurred in history. Instead of the moon race, the film makes an excuse that Apollo 11 moon landing was the purpose of discovering the crashed alien …show more content…

This is faultlessly what the fans have wanted, a giant explosion filled, uproarious, clamorous Transformers destruction that takes place in Chicago. The amazing scene where the soldiers fly through the city between buildings running away from the battleships is where the 3D shines. Likewise, the Transformers action is all so great and just the last 1-hour Chicago demolition-like oversized destruction is worth the time and money. As well as the Transformers action and the visual eye candy, the 3D shots are splendid that really elevates the enjoyment of the last final act. In addition, from a Transformers flick, everyone expects the special effects to be all-good, and in the result, they are marvelously crafted and so awfully impressive as you exactly expected. Therefore, it is assuredly tough to shout that the movie is bad to be

William Dusinberre’s book Them Dark Days concentrates on the Gowrie plantation, the Butler Island plantation and, the Chicora Wood plantation as examples of the dark reality slavery had in the U.S. South. All three of these plantations are described by Dusinberre as “rice kingdoms”. He theorized that in the U.S. South these types of plantations were the most lucrative for planters and the most cruelly demanding to slaves. First and foremost in Dusinberre’s mind, gentleman planters such as Charles Manigualt, Pierce Butler and Robert Allston were capitalists driven to make profits not benevolent Southern patriarchs. In slave historiography, Dusinberre’s study of rice plantations brings forth a revisionist view that challenges the idea of Southern

After viewing Moonlight, which was personally my favorite film of the year, I choose to analyze the scene when Blue takes Chiron to the ocean and teaches him to swim (17:20-19:30). This scene first drew my attention because of Blue’s character. The dynamic of a crack dealer with a heart-of-gold has this duality about it where my heart tells me to love him as a person, but my head tells me that this person is Chiron’s mother’s dealer, and I should despise him for it. Yet, when I watch this scene I can’t help but think of how much I love Blue as a character. He is able to fill in for the role of a father figure, and teach Chiron about life.

Let me preface with this. I love Star Trek. I’ve seen most of the original series, this movie as well as Wrath of Khan and if I stop procrastinating, I’ll get to TNG and DS9, as well as the other movies. I watched this one a while ago when my teacher lent me her VCR set of all the movies. Sadly I was only able to get to this one, cause procrastination is a major problem, man.

In my descriptive piece, my character stays out in the open streets until the sun starts to set and the night sky starts to spread. And once the character makes their way to the alley, it becomes so dark that they can barely tell when their eyes are closed while possibly being chased, giving the impression of being in an obviously unsafe environment in the dark, therefore connecting with my title. I made the title a bit of a ‘show-it-don’t-tell-it’ type where it is actually much deeper than it lets on. The darkness links with my idea of contrast in the first paragraph, “The earth that bares no life at all is dull under the few glares of the sun that tries to fight its way through the black barriers that doom our city.”
