hello KEITH! this is Raymond here.. still feel kinda weird calling my teacher with his name. hah!
ReplyDeletei'm going to give opinion about the story which is from my class (group 3) vuvuzela - the fashion hero. In my point of view, some part of she, the fashion hero makes me feels like she is not a hero. although there are many arguments about whether he/she should be classified as a hero or not.Of course for me, i think that she is somehow a bit abnormal.. for example, having mirror in the whole island in order to see her own "beautiful" face..? this kinda of character will only be seen in fairy tales like CINDERELLA, the evil witch.. besides that, something like "fashion disaster" will need a hero to take action? for me, i think that people have their right on wearing whatever they like as long as it is comfortable for them. perhaps, in her own thought she thinks that she is actually helping, but is everyone thinks the same way?? we doesn't need a "hero" to controls what we are wearing right?
In other hand, i think that this story line is very creative as compare with other hero story. i like the part where she sets her motto "save the relationship, save the world", and also the part where the writer mention about her only weakness.. because, i totally agree that no body is perfect and everyone will have their own weakness.. including superman which is the kryptonite. The last part of it, the writer also included the moral value of the story. Not bad, but still i won't like a hero like this.. ^^
mr. keith.. is my opinion a bit too harsh?
ReplyDeleteregarding the vuvuzela heroic story keith I think it was some creative work.. at first keith I did ponder to myself because the storyline was rather weird... a fashion hero..but i realise that most of us have been conformed to the same thinking pattern that a hero was be someone who has certain powers to save the day well i think most of us perceive heroes the way holloywood shows us..so this particular group should be commended for their creativity to think out of the box..i really appreciate their work
ReplyDeleteWell, I'd have to agree with Raymond, sure their "hero" had weaknesses,a cool motto and their was a lot of creativity put into it, but honestly I don't really see how that passes off as a hero...I mean,a hero that helps "fashion victims"?..To me, that doesn't really pass of as a damsel in distress calling for help...and mayb the story cud have been better if they explained how the hero became a fashion hero..That wud have been a interesting,& mayb a bit funny...-Kieran
