Director Micheal Moore gives insight on what George W. Bush and his involvement in the 9/11attack and Afghanistan war in Fahrenheit 9/11.Moore reveals the shocking reasons as to why Bush wanted to start the Afghanistan war in the first place and what strategies he uses that involve the American citizens. The shocking truth of what was sacrificed and taking advantaged of is all revealed in Fahrenheit 9/11.
In the image of Moore getting footage of Bush while it says no more pictures shows Bush was hiding a hidden agenda in the 9/11 incident.What was hidden was in fact his lie of weapons of mass destruction located in Afghanistan and using the American citizen's patriotism to his advantage to start the war.The photo of Dearth Vader with a shirt saying he's a metaphor of Bush shows what is for committing the injustice acts in the Afghanistan war in order to obtain what he wants.The fact that Bush falsified patriotism and lied about the WMD info shows the metaphor of Vader and himself.The last picture showing Moore revealing Bushes actions of 9/11 and the Afghanistan war's negative effects to Afghanistan and America to Cannes,a movie festival in France, shows how the flaming American flag personifies the destruction of America due to Bushes actions as President.

Blog Entry 19:The Story of Stuff
In the story of stuff, a corporation from one country will extract or take resources of another country. The first country benifits because they are taking from that second country and gain profit by using the other countries resources to make their products.The second country suffers from this action because their economy decreases while they are forced to either buy back their resources or adjust to this radical change. This action is completly wrong,because someone greatly suffers from this type of action regardless of another's benifit.Evidence would be in the movie Sleep Dealers where the mexicans are forced to buy their own water from their river when the U.S. build a dam for their own benifit.
Blog Entry 18:Sleep Dealer essay
In the movie "Sleep Dealers," Mexicans are forced to buy their own water because the United States
build a dam on their own river.The Mexicans cannot afford the water,so they are forced to work for the U.S.
In the cartoon "A Concise History of Black-White Relations in the U.S.A,"shows a caucasian male taking advantage of an African American male.Afterwards,he abandons the African American because he is done
using him.The movie and the cartoon connect because they both show the dominant race taking advantage of
the minority.

Blog Entry 16:CAT Revision
Fast-food restaurant chains like McDonald's are criticized by "nutritionist and dietitians.Fast-food restaurants still target poor people.since the poor are looking for cheap meals,fast-food restaurants like McDonald's use their "super size" gimmicks to get more poor customers to eat at McDonald's.The super size
combo meal has 1,340 calories compared to the regular meal at 680 calories.Due to my personal experience with fast-food restaurants,what the article suggests is true.
An experience I had with fast-food proves the article's claim.One afternoon,at a McDonald's,I ate the Angus mushroom and Swiss and combo.The combo came with medium sized fries and a medium sized soda. When I finished eating the meal,I looked at the nutrition facts,to know what I ate.After I looked at the nutrition facts,the calories for the Angus burger were 380 calories.After I looked at the calories from the burger,I then looked at the calories from the fries and the soda.The fries had 120 calories and the soda had 140 calories. When I added the calories of the entire meal, it was half a day's worth of calories.
When you eat one fast-food combo,you are eating half a day's worth of calories.If you eat half the day's worth of calories,the calories you consume will be unused fat if not burned out.Excessive fat leads to diabetes,obesity,and heart attacks

The reason the makers of the Meatrix used the Matrix as it's means for their arguments is because like all the humans trapped in their minds,people don't know the truth behind where their dairy products come from.Also in the Maetrix,the animals that are trapped in the Meatrix or farming industtry,humans are trapped in the Matrix.Humans are oblivious in both the Matrix and the Meatrix about reality.

Blog Entry 13
The Matrix is about computers controlling the lives of humans on Earth and use them as an energy resource to operate the Matrix.Humans assume that they're living ordinary lives,but are actually trapped inside their minds.Neo,an ordinary human that's bored of his everyday life meets the mysterious Morpheus and gives gives him a choice of taking the blue pill,which puts him back to his ordinary life,or the red pill,which shows him the truth about the Matrix.Neo takes the red pill and joins Morpheus and his entourage that also know the truth. Neo,as well as Morpheus and his entourage fight the computers of the Matrix that have a human form called "Mr.Smith and the Matrix in order to save humanity.I say taking the red pill is a better choice because of two reasons,to know the truth and to not be held prisoner.
I say red pill because it's better to know the truth than to know lies.People asks questions or seek the truth themselves because it's human nature to want to know whats real or not real.Truman wanted to know if his everyday life was real or controlled in the Truman Show due to certain events in the movie that made him unsure about the reality of his everyday life.
Red pill is my choice because I don't want to be held prisoner in my mind or held prisoner in general. A prisoner is someone with no freedom just like the humans trapped in their minds and are considered prisoners. Jews were deprived of their lives and freedom and had to work to death in order to create the pyramids of Egypt the Pharaoh of Egypt's orders can be considered prisoners.Truman was a prisoner prisoner in a show starring himself his entire life being unable to even leave Seahaven or The Truman Show itself due to subtle interferences.
As I said before,I would take the red pill without hesitation.It's better to be a free man that knows the truth than an ignorant prisoner in life.I wouldn't be in the Truman,or Jews during the age of Mozis.Besides,in the movie the Matrix,Neo becomes a hero that stops the Matrix so it's pretty much a no brainer to choose the red pill in this situation than the blue pill.

Blog Entry 12:Reflection and Evaluation
Overall in my two blog series,I think I did better in blog series 2 than in blog series 1.There are two reasons as to why I have this claim,and they're summaries and the movies I saw for my writing assignments.I write better summaries than essays and what I saw mostly in blog series 2.In blog series 1 however,I was just beginning to understand the order of claim,reason,and evidence so most of my essays in blog series 1 has some reasons that weren't clear or made sense to support my claims.
In blog series 1,I basically had a hard time posting my blogs on time due to my lack of focus and concentration in finishing my essays.I'm not really good at writing essays so some of the essays in series 1 are "rough around the edges".I had some problems specifically in blogs 5 and 6 because I had a hard time summarizing the article "The Allegory of the cave" and describing my life to the article until I saw the video about the "Allegory of the cave".Despite some problems in series 1,I do clearly explain my claims in the essays that ask for claim.
In blog series 2,watching the movies,"The Truman Show and The Matrix" improved my reasons and evidence in order to write my essays.I can understand any movie I watch for the first time so it was esay to complete my writing assignments.Writing comments about the two movies felt more natural because I writing my opinions on someone claims about the movies.
Again,as I said overall,I prefer blog series 2 than blog series 1 because it was easier to me.I think I did an ok job on both series regardless of some difficulties.I honestly hope that blog series 3 has less blogs to write than series 1 and 2.
