As for friendship, Peter knew that Harry is a trouble that need big medication. Petter knew that his blood would have get Harry killed. He did not hurt his friend emotion but yet find a different way to tell him that he would get killed if he uses Spiderman’s blood.

Same goes to the electrical man, Max Dillion. The very first time they both meet Peter did not react aggressively to take down the monster and yet use a very manners way to calm Max down. 

 

 

This is why i love Spiderman so much. The character of Peter that always humble and the background setting which are the high rises and point of view above the cities view make me feel happy. 

Next is when Peter tried to find out what his father message to him before he pass away. Most of the people will not assume it as a message. But Peter research throughout the entire web to find details of what he would be searching for. For Peter giving up is not a choice for him so in the very end he found what his father wanted to tell him about . Where the background scene is also giving the feel of secretive. Which is under an abandon subway.

In the story plot, Peter who vow to promise Gwen late father to end his relationship with Gwen Stacy just to protect him from all the enemies Peter could have face . But he did not totally forget her yet to love her even more by protecting Gwen secretly as Spiderman crawling from roof to roof. Although Peter loves Gwen as much as he could, but he knew his responsibility to the people of the world. And he kept his promise to Gwen’s late father.  Before Gwen left to further her studies in British. The moment when Spiderman sent message to Gwen at the bridge and immediately grab Gwen to the top of the bridge. The background send a powerful romantic scene to make the feel of how strong is the power of love even stronger.

In a busy city of NYC, Peter whom was fighting with his lives to protect the resident of New York and his girlfriend Gwen Stacy. Peter is always stay humble with his superpower and stay hidden although haters from the social media hit him on the news saying that he is a bad guy. Peter always take the safety of the people as first priority no matter in what sequences of his life. Although what Peter did 

was saving the world, he did not expect for high return. All his career was taking a photo of himself as spiderman selling it to the 

social media that hates him .

Based on my movie experiance I would like to choose The Amazing Spiderman 2 which is the latest version of Spiderman. It’s all start up from a accidental sting of a radioactive spider. Peter Parker whom was a teen that being bully in high school get his superpower and have a turn of his life . 

THE AMAZING SPIDERMAN 2

1996  Philadelphia

 

 1990.Cole convinces himself that he is insane, but Railly confronts him with evidence of his time travel. They decide to spend their remaining time together in the Florida Keys before the onset of the plague. At that period of time, Cole felt in love with Dr Railly and believing himself that the present is a delusion and 1996 is present.The architecture are simple but with a great environment actually satisfy the people around .This show that human can be fascinated and felt relax with surrounding environment. Based on my understanding , the human feeling can be manipulate with surrounding

humanity , environment and architecture. 

"Past" 1990  Mental institution of Baltimore 

 

James Cole had arrives in Baltimore in 1990 but not 1996 as planned. He got himself arrested and hospitalized in a mental institution on the diagnosis of Dr. Kathryn Railly.The mental institution doctor interviewed Cole and reject to believe the explaination of virus  by Cole. In my opinion , this situation reflected the arrogant of humanity in real life. We never trust something unless it happen. James Cole are depressed and helpless in the institution untill he escaped and returning to the present.The architecture of mental institution is simple and colourless with some simple furniture and entertainment but most the patient still relax and happy. This reflect that the mental of people can actually change the physical environment.

Based on my point of view, the movie TWELVE MONKEYS using concept of time traveling a post-apocalyptic future which also reflect back the humanity in our life.

 

by Terry  Gilliam

"Present" 1996-2035 underground of Philadelphia 
 

This movie background is happened in 1996 which a deadly virus invaded Earth which wipe out almost all of the humanity.The remaining human survivors force to live beneath ground.The only solution that might bring back humanity back above ground is to collect information on the virus for scientists to develop a cure. The architecture in the movie basically had separated in two period of times which express 2 differents feeling and emotion. The architecture in the "present" world give a feeling of harsh but determine which they force to live underground in a harsh condition but still build a proper space for human restoration program above the Earth.The architecture express a feeling of weak but still hopes.

So the movie is somehow like the reality, between the debate of the power of  religion and science technology. The force may be the side of the religion and nature, and the science is the darkside, but this is just part of my thinking for the movie.

From the scene and the environment of the movie, rebel alliance is from Naboo which is a earth like planet, which human and gungan species live in. The environment of the planet is green peaceful and nature surrounded. On the other hand, the dark side stays in a rigid, robotic home, which can easy found a lot of weapons around, The Death Star. The station itself is already a destroyer, which can easily destroy any planet with one shot of laser beam. Storm troopers also has the look of powerful evil army, which is likely more cruel compared to the rebel alliance army. The background settings of these two clans already shows the difference, can tell which side they are on.​ 

 

The movie also has the romantic side, From Anakin Skywalker who turns to the dark side, because of his selfishness and impatient. He was too afraid of losing Padme, so he turns to the dark side to gain the power to stop her from death. Han solo and Princess Leia wasn't like each other until they have been through the fight of the darkside.

The main thing of the movie, not just about the fighting and the weapons. It also contains moral value through the whole movie. The Force is which neutralize the thought of an individual having strength from the positive energy, The Dark side is which ones greedy, anger, fear, selfishness and full of hatred gaining the negative energy. As master Yoda always say "be patient, you must" or " clear your mind, you must", this inspired me to stay as positive as possible in the reality of doing anything. In the movie the jedi do always blessing each other "may the force be with you", this reminding them of the positive force and energy.​

Story by George Lucas, in a long time ago in a galaxy far ,far away. It is one of the most epic movie until today. During the 70s, without the advanced technology of making the movie, people already imagining the future world in the galaxy. The thing that I really like about Star Wars is the spacecraft. I would collect all of them if I have the money. It is so cool, that during the old days, they actually make the real model of the spacecraft to make the film, but this is not only the main thing of the movie.

In my personal opinion, the writer is successful to illiterate the quality of fantasy world where evil, characterized by the perversion of nature, may become more powerful; but the other side, nature of the world will make the good one survives. Imagining the fantasy world in the setting of ancient The Third Age of Middle-Earth is a creative way to convey the nature and geography of Middle-Earth. His thought of combining different human of different period of age is definitely surprising where we can see how actually the people and creatures could get along or having fights with one another.

However, the story basically is Candide. Candide goes to war, suffers through natural disasters, kills a number of creatures and men. The Hobbit or Bilbo can be described as weirdest innocent characters that went through alot of adventrues and finally settled down which based on Candide summary. The ending or outcome of this story is the not realization of reality that describes ancient time, instead fantasy imagination that has created imagination out of reality. This gives great inspiration to deal architecture not only with reality but as well integrating with fantasy or imagination.

At the beginning of the story, city of Dale where The Lake Men houses are built in not organized manner before urban planners start to work. Houses were old but in good condition in city of Dale built of timbers that represents the local culture or traditions of the people. But after a dragon burn the village down, the architecture of applying timber give the idea of timber is weak in fire resistance when the houses are getting old. Then, the setting switch to the nature of mountaintops which worked out as ideal fortification that was built in triangular vertical form which leads to new architecture of using stones to construct not only perpendicular to the floor. Thorin is killed on icy pool where the sky is dark and gloomy which makes people feel sad and sorrow of sacrificing people when having civil war that happened in the colonial era. 

This story is mainly about Bilbo rather than other character. This is beacuse Bilbo, with Ring on that make him invisible, tried to sneaks out of the Lonely Mountain (fort of Dwarves or Hobbits) only to get to Lake Men and The Elves. He bargain Arkenstone as chip to Bard (The Lake Men) to stop his own leaders Thorin from starting a war. Bilbo develops modern heroism in this story by making an independent moral choice that resulted in alliancing The Dwarves with The Lake Men and The Elves to fight Orcs and Wolves.

The Lake Men

The Elves

Climax (Main part of the story)
The Orcs, Wolves and Bats were facing their greatest threat. They arranged forces to two spur to line the valley leading to the only entrance to the Mountain. On the other sides, dwarves, men and Elves formed up on one spur to take Goblins or Orcs down when they are still fighting with the Wolves.  This reminds people of the strategy of war by using the architecture of nature geography of land or mountains during ancient time where there is no technology who could detect the position of enemies. From this, I realized that nature of geopraphy is the best architecture to be appreciated. 
The combination of traditional weapons and magic in war is very creative where people might wonder which power that could win the war. In the end, Orcs and Wolves were defeated. Dwarves share treasure of gold and silver with Bard (the men), wherupon he share his reward of Lake-Town (from The Men) with The Elves. We could see the architecture of sharp weapons, archeries in the story no longer being used until today. The weapons are architected to represent creativeness of people in ancient time that never went for any education.

Architecture has strong connection to film production. Films actually have presented us with a world has to be designed and even futuristic world will be designed through different perspectives of sets, costumes and props; even locations have to be selected appropriately. The producer has to controlled all these elements. Film architecture actually has an important function.

The Hobbit movie actually contributes to traditional architecture and help to bring people back to visualise the architecture of the past as well as integrating in the fantasy world of human character. The writers actually think inductively when they create the story of The Hobbit: Battle of Five Armies. 

The overall scene is being written in a way that different age of period was combined, which is between the age of Faerie and dominion of men, when the famous forest of Mirkwood was still standing, and the mountains were full of danger.

THE BATTLE OF FIVE ARMIES

THE HOBBIT

Secondly, another precious moral values we can get from this movie is to cherish what we had in life especially the people surrounding us. It is always a fate that the people we meet. In the movie, the main actor found a lady who helped him when he is in bad situation, gave him food as well as repaired his spoiled boots. The main actor very appreciate for what she did to him, and he also try his best to give everything to the lady. Lastly, both of them got together after the tournament.

in the stadium. Movie actually can be architecture this way, it gave us the new idea of thinking also the exciting feeling cause it was the first time we see kung fu mixed with the reality football.

However, we also can get some precious moral values from this movie. First of all, never give up until the end. In this movie, they fight hardly and reached final game while the opponent was trying to play cheat by injecting drug inside all the players to overpower them. The kung fu team fight until the end although all their teammates was hurt because of the overpower opponent. They believe in themselves, and lastly they won the game. So the moral of the story is to tell us not to give up easily even though the situation is hard.

How is the relationship between the architecture background and the characters bring to the audience? In the picture on the left, we can see that is a stadium and team of kung fu soccer players with kung fu jersey on. From that, we can understand that kung fu soccer actually can display

Example, in the picture above, we can really see the movie purposely filmed in the place where surrounded with old classic building. Also, the brown colour box is actually the tools of making Chinese bread “ man tou”. With this architecture, we can understand the message from the director which is the beautiful of Chinese architecture and the Chinese tradition.

The movie I would like to pick is “Shaolin Soccer” from director Stephen Chow. It is a Hong Kong movie which gave me a lot of positive energy as well as moral values.

 

This movie story is talking about a gang of friends whom they have natural power and they used their gifted power to play football and try their best to win the tournament.

 

The story mainly want to pass down the message of shaolin kung fu to the worldwide. To let the world know and understand what actually is shaolin kung fu. Kung fu exits in the early age, so in this movie, the background and architecture are mainly remain in heritage to link back with the history of shaolin kung fu in order to increase the “taste” of movie.
