My thoughts on Bullying

People sometimes feel the need to establish their superiority over others. Bullying isn’t a natural defense we don’t prey on the week by nature. However we are drawn to them. In this day and age society has more than often no ostracized those who do not fit the mold. Bullying secludes those that don’t fit in and even the ones that do because of petty things. Especially in school we see students taking to each other in cruel ways that even lead to tears. Society has presented us with an ideal of what they think is okay and people that fit the criteria bully those who don’t. Some bullies have even been bullied as well. The only way to fix this problem would be to change the way society in general views others. This may take time because not only are we hard set to maintain the aura of abuse but also we want to feel better than everyone else. This is what causes bullying.

Favorite Movies

My favorite movies include John Q, The Fault In Our Stars, and finally Divergent. These movies include resounding plots and filmmakers that are extremely good at showing us the message behind the movies. They use different locations, as well as music to connect images to the plot. They take shots from different angles to draw in emotions from a scene. These were especially necessary for the making of The Fault in Our Stars and John Q. In the Fault In Our Stars the make of the movie used the narration of the main character as well as special effects to show us the thoughts and emotions of the love story from a dying girl. However, in Divergent and in John Q we were not given the characters point of view directly but through scenes and expression. Divergent, specially, used special effects to show a futuristic time and computerized images of the ruins of Chicago. This all ties in with the plot allowing for the viewers to be completely emerged in the film. These particular movies drew me in because of the great messages behind them, some of which I had never considered. For example the cruelty of the world we live in tied in with every aspect including the medical one (John Q), the possibility of infinity in a numbered amount of days (Tfios), and the that were are defined by our choices and not our preconceptions (Divergent).
