Animal House Altered College Life Forever—For Better and For Worse, But Mostly Better
Animal House became an idealized version of the craziest and most action-packed college experience ever, while it somehow still seemed fairly attainable. Wherever the bar was set for ‘70s college parties, Animal House took that bar, broke it into kindling, and made a bonfire.

The texts Animal Farm by George Orwell and The Truman Show directed by Peter Weir, explore three main themes, power, utopia and the good life. Animal Farm is a novel about a farm where all the animals want to rebel against the humans and one pig tries to take control of the rebellion but ends up being just as bad and just as powerful as the humans, the whole book is a metaphor for communist Russia. The Truman Show is a film about a man who has lived his whole life inside a dome created by Christoff, the director of The Truman Show, while the whole world watches. Both Animal Farm and The Truman Show explore the theme of power through a central figure. Napoleon (the main pig in charge) from Animal Farm, started off trying to lead all the other animals away from the ways of the humans but ended up being in control and having power over the other animals in a selfish way.

Paul Hill decided to kill abortionist Dr. John Britton and his escort as they left their clinic, in order to stop them from killing more unborn babies. At least that’s his reasoning for his violent acts. But these acts are more than random violence, they are acts of religious terrorism. Religious terrorism is a “public act of destruction without a political objective designed to create fear, for which religion acts as the motivation, organization, and justification.” Based on the definition of religious terrorism, Paul Hill is a terrorist.
“Nobody has ever seen puppets like that, nobody, those are completely and utterly new,” (Oz qtd Creative, Prolific, and Influential, 7:42).

Author of Animal Farm, George Orwell and director of Truman Show, Peter Weir use figurative and metaphorical undertones to express a deeper message in both forms. Both men depict a good life as one of hard work and dedication, the ideal society as practically unachieveable by humans as we are always swayed by personal convictions and the abused power of individuals is seemingly the source of injustice, elitism and prejudice in our society. Truman Show and Animal Farm are criticisms of our world that Weir and Orwell use to convey very similar messages to their separate
I 'm the owner of myself. What I produce it 's mine, it 's the product of my action, it isn 't a point of view, it 's a fact. So if you take something I produced you are effectively slavering me for the time I took to do that, for example, if I build my house and you come to my house and you make me leave because you think it is yours, your stealing my property. If I took 1 year to build my house, you are effectively slavering me for that year, because you took what I produced to yourself. Taxes are the same thing, the government comes, take what is yours and says it 's his, but you can 't say that it 's actually yours because that theft is seen as moral, and that 's wrong.

The wise boar, Old Major, got up on stage, meanwhile the rest of the animals made themselves comfortable.
It is the fact that throughout the whole entire book it did not mention the animals were able to watch television. They thought it was the Man who watched it only and it was a humanistic thing to do.
