Second breakfast is the best idea ever.

I'm considering adopting it as part of my lifestyle.

My favorite series has got to be Indiana Jones.

Who are you and what have you done with Maooz?

 

[MrMaooz]

Who are you and what have you done with Maooz?

Don't worry. I'm still a Bond fan(nut).

 

[MrMaooz]

Oh, and my viewpoint on the SW vs. LOTR debate is that LOTR might be better, but I'm more attached to Star Wars.

 

[ThatSpiderGuy]

Star Wars is more appealing to the youth simply because the context of it is more appealing to the youth.

BTW i am writing a Macbeth essay right now and it is taking forever. It's about "Why is Macbeth considered by many to be a tragic hero??" I'm supposed to give a bunch of examples. Any help from anyone would be nice

 

[MrMaooz]

Star Wars was my freaking childhood.

Oh, and ThatSpiderGuy, the Shire theme is amazing. I want to tear up sometimes when I hear it.

Macbeth is a tragic hero because...

Um...

Honestly, I think think tragic villain fits him more.

yupp me too. Lord of the Rings was definitely more of my childhood, but I still enjoyed watching the original star wars trilogy as well as the prequels all on VHS tapes as a child.
And yes, the shire theme, especially 'the road goes ever on pt 1', makes me want to tear up while listening to it as well. The entire score is just simple genius and beauty.

well a tragic hero is someone who is fair and just and a good guy in the beginning that makes a judgment error and it leads to his ultimate downfall/demise.

I had to write the same essay on Hamlet my junior year. We never did Macbeth though. But think tragic flaws, aka the personality trait that leads to one's downfall. That's what they want you to get at in those things. If I recall correctly, I remember hearing in passing that Macbeth's tragic flaw is his ambition and desire to take a position of power.

That's what I meant by tragic villain.

Wait, are you telling me that I've been using the wrong term all this time?

yeah it's actually tragic hero lol
Anakin is an example of a tragic hero, although he did turn good again in the very very end.

yes you are absolutely right. That's what I'm writing about now. I just wanted some examples in the text that I could use so I could feel better about my own thoughts. but thanks for the input

 

[ThatSpiderGuy]

Thorin is very much like Anakin. He is good in the beginning, but then his ambition gets in the way and he turns to the bad side. But at the very end he realises that he was a fool and becomes the good guy that he always was.

Macbeth is much more tragic, because he is still an evil person at the end even though he was very valiant and honorable in the beginning.

 

[ThatSpiderGuy]

The biggest problem with me in terms of essay writing is that I write too much and my structure in the essay becomes flawed so i lose a bunch of points. I need to have structure. this is hard XD

 

[Stormz96]

Yea I'd give ya some, but I haven't read it. We touched on it briefly in one of my mythology courses because tragic heroes are like super Greek, so apparently Macbeth had a lot of mythological parallels.

Lord of the Rings >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Star Wars in everything. lol

Spoiler

To be honest, I love both series dearly. But I'll never pass up a chance to use that gif.

So, uh, what do you guys study or have a degree on?

I study something similar to Software engineneering but is not that math heavy, is more like software developing, i know C++, Java and some MySQL...

Adam Sandler's first Netflix film is Ridiculous 6, which was apparently in development at Sony at one point. I like to think it's a reworking of that "**** you, magic tricks!" Sinister Six movie.
