The killing joke response


The killing joke response

1.what is your response to the text you just read?
            Humanity is very complex. Good or bad, wrong or right are all rules made by majority. Just like in this comic, when jokes starts to reconsider all the social rule he being told, he found himself lost in questions, he know more about the evil in humanity than anyone else, and he knows both batman and him try to take the different paths to response to that kind of evil. Batman simply chooses to fight, but joker chooses to experience the evil, be the evil and understand the evil. I have to said in some degree batman and joker are all madman, they both react extremely to the evil in humanity.

2. what connections do you make with the movie?
            How does it feel to be the minority? How does it feel when you are on the opposite side of the crowd? I think I know how it feels when I decide to change major from computer animation to visual study.  My parent couldn’t understand the reason behind my “odd” behavior. Why give up such a major that have a bright future and change into something they never heard about? But I know I’m making the right move, I can learn more and learn more efficiently while on my own and more important, I know most people in this world are very easy to be brainwashed, they always look at the result first and ignore the intermediate progress. Therefore, I’m sure my parent will change their mind if they see my success in the future. But how can I be so sure that I’ll succeed in the future? Because I’m doing the right thing

3.what changes will you make to adapt the story into another media?
            board game or role play game. Let one be the batman and the other be the joker. Their goal is to convince as many audiences as they can to join their team. Random topics will be draw for them and is their jobs to give a speech, question each other and deliver what they believe is right.

Week 13 Changing Landscape of Licensed Characters

Week 13 Changing Landscape of Licensed Characters             When I was a kid, I imagine superhero as someone who is so perfect and that is nothing he can’t achieve. Always give their power to people whom need them and always looks cool~   Nowadays, superheroes, somehow, are weaker than before. They have more flaws and more personality in them, which does bring them closer to the audience since now they can be “understand”. I guess we just don’t like things there are way too perfect, too complete that we can’t see ourselves reflection in them. Today’s superhero movies all wants to tell the story inside the audience, to build that kind of emotional connection with the audience, and have lots of up-and-down in the plot to give the audience that kind of roller coasters feeling when watching it. I wouldn’t say it is getting better or worse, but one thing I do find funny, and not to offense any superhero’s fa...

week 6 Underground Comix

Week 6             Underground Comix             I read the The Book of Mr. Natural and understand why it was underground. Sex, yeah, it does contain a decent amount of sexual content and Robert Crumb didn’t just “implied” or cut away the camera during the sex scenes in the comic. He draw those private body parts out, in details…but is this the only reason why it was considered undergrounded? In my opinion, not really. Yes, Mr. Natural is a rude old man and does whatever he wants, but I guess that also makes it one of the very early comics that doesn’t care much about being political correct. In fact, Robert Crumb is being very sarcastic to the society in his comic world. I can definitely see his self-reflection in the form of Mr. Natural. He doesn’t care much about writing a cool story or something that would amazed people, in fact, I feel like he uses his com...
