Macbeth Dagger Scene (If i were the director)
If i were the director i would use the dagger scene to make Macbeth seem as Mad as possible. I would take full advantage of the pending madness shown in the speech. There wouldn't be a dagger in the scene just an actor who reaches for something in front of him claiming its a dagger. the actor would look utterly confused when he reaches for a dagger and pulls back empty handed. He would look as if he were talking to someone even tho there's no one else around. When he says "Hear not my steps, which way they walk for fear/ Thy very stones prate of my whereabout." 2.1.57-58. Macbeth would look down at the floor with a pleading look on his face begging the floor to stay silent. For the closing of the scene Macbeth would recite "Hear it not Duncan; for it is a knell/ That summons thee to heaven or to hell." 2.1.62-63 as he was walking down the hallway and he would grab a real dagger off a hall table and slink away into the darkness towards Duncan's room.
Macbeth Dagger Scene (Mad or Sane)
In Macbeth scene one act two Macbeth is clearly mad. Lady Macbeth Has just gone to the kings chamber to drug the guards while Macbeth waits patiently for her to give the signal. Macbeth 'sees' an imaginary dagger floating in front of him and that's when the famous dagger scene starts. "Is this a dagger which I see before me/ The handle toward my hand?" 2.1.33-34. Macbeth sees this dagger offering itself to him to aid in the murder of the king. "Or art tho but/ A dagger of the mind, a false creation," 2.1.37-38. Macbeth realized that the dagger could be an illusion, that the stress of killing the king is making him hallucinate. Macbeth is mad, throughout the play there are many passages that question Macbeth's sanity. The dagger scene is the one that where most readers know that he is indeed mad.

Blade Back Story
Blade is a third year at the academy for specials and has
almost mastered her power. The academy is for those who have committed a deadly
sin and been ‘transformed’ or ‘reborn’ as a cat with insane powers. Blade and
her sister Ice murdered a whole school because they were told they weren’t good
enough to play with the other children they were found on the swings holding
hands covered in blood and changed.
Blades power is
that anything she holds in her paws can turn into a sword or knife, she does
have her favorites though. Her mother died when she way young and in her will
left Blade with 2 deadly swords. They were forged from steel with the blood of
her ancestors. they hold immense power and Blade is Just learning to control
the huge bursts of energy that the they emit when she’s in intense battle. The power
that emerges in her heart when she’s on the verge of death, her powers take
over and nothing can stop her. When this happens her normally kind but cunning eyes
go blank and turn grey. She becomes 3 times stronger and faster and any one who
goes against her fails and either ends up dead or severely injured. The only
one that can calm blade once she’s in this state is Ice.
Blade and Ice can join forces and that’s how they murdered
the whole school. Ice bends any liquid to her will and turned it into an ice
coating that wraps around blades swords and makes the bigger and more
destructive. Once that step is complete Blade gives up one of the swords to Ice
and there’s no stopping this dynamic duo.

media analysis
How are we supposed to have a cultured free future when we
can’t shake off the control of the past? The past is keeping control of
everything and limiting what we can use for our own creations using bits of
other works. People that do remixing, photo editing, collages and sampling are
limited what they can do and are all “breaking the law”. It’s copyright law or
if u break it it’s copyright infringement. The movie was bias, it only showed
the ‘peoples’ side of the argument and never flipped it to see the other side.
It was all about how copyright law is stupidly constructed.
The filmmaker makes us mad at copyright laws by showing us Girl-talk's music until about half way through then saying that because of
copyright law he can only show us enough to get his point across by invoking
the freedom of speech policy. After that he changes to a classical music but
continues to show that it was an amazing concert but we can’t hear any of it.
There was a tone of conflict shown between teens downloading music and the laws
against it. Even when Radio-head free-lanced and released an album on YouTube
for the people to remix and recreate, someone who posted his recreation got a
letter from Radio-head publishers stating that he owed a lot of money for
using the album. This is one way we were showed that copyright law is
constructed badly. Even though the publishers had absolutely nothing to do with
the release and creation of the album, because Radio-head signed a contract the
publishers basically own them. Also a man got sued for drawing steam boat Willy
(aka Mickey Mouse) and putting out a comic book. He was then told that he could
never draw Mickey Mouse again. But my question is if Disney is going to publish
and distribute a how to draw Mickey Mouse book how can they tell us we can’t
draw him?
All in all personally I think that copy right law is a good
thing but it needs to have some serious tweaking done to it. Yes it is
protecting the original creations of the artists, but it’s also limiting the
creativity of regular people. For example if I happen to be mega rich and get
some good layers I could draw and copyright a sun then no one would be able to
draw a sun. To me that seems kind of stupid. What would kindergarteners draw in
the back ground of their pictures? What are your opinions on this topic? Leave
me a comment is copy right law good or bad?
