I GOT CONFUSED WITH YO
I GOT CONFUSED WITH YO TITILE AND THE BOOK. i thought those were the two peices that you were going to discuss. well, i guess i rode the short bus on that one.
any way, i also was confused by your thesis but you expalined it to me and i really like it. i like the way they really have two totally different plot lines yet have so much in common. i think the paper will come out good just get yourself some more peer reviewed sources (jstor.org) and you shall be fine.......
Holliday = the dankness. I
Holliday = the dankness.
I like the music on the power point, great visuals from the book and movie.
Maybe you can talk about how people volunteer themselves for the "Walk" and how people are drafted for the War. For the "walk" maybe talk about how people KNOWINGLY put themselves into a situation where they can be murdered for the sake of their family and for pride?
isn't there one hubris that is the sin of pride?

great job
The presentation was great. The thesis is what is just blew me away. It was very concise and to the poitn. It was very clear in what yu wnated to do. i really enjoyed the presentation.
cole's words of wisdom
you have all the bases covered and you sound like you know what the fuck you are talking about but then again when don't you. Your thesis kicked major ass and i was left speach less which doesn't happen to often i didn't even have a smart ass comment. Keep it up
JeeeeeeeeRemy
I think you also chose two good topics. I am a little confused on your thesis. I know you are comparing the fact that they kill and then feel guilty for it. Maybe you could go a little more into what makes them feel guilty??? I don't really know cuz I havn't read or seen them. But good luck!
great job
At first i wasn't anle to get the points of your argument but then i understood after you explained. i think you are going to tal about the two characters been volunteers. your points were not very easily identified but i think it is going to be great when you finish your paper.

great presentation! way to keep our attention! i loved the music and all! good job! anyway, make the points clear about what you are comparing... i am a little confused with that except for the killing and not feeling guilty about it. state the broad category that you are seeing similar in the two before the three supporting points. good job!
My Comment
Your power point was the best I've ever seen! Good job. I think that the only problem that you would even remotely have would be having too much information that you want to cover, and even that is a lot better than not having enough. Good job.....if your paper is as good as your power point, I think you will def get a good grade.
okay!
I have never read these stories ut i do understand that you have some good points that need be explained more clearly. I need to understand this even if i didnt see or read your topics choices. i also like the directiion but I need to see more in depth explanations! very good!@
hey!!!! i liked the phallic
hey!!!! i liked the phallic symbol onthe book cover..haha...ur thesis is good. very knowledgable of the subject it seems. so many big words got me lost in what u were comparing tho..but htats ok ur papers gonna kick sum ass!!! good job!!!
Volunteer
Are you going to talk about how both of the characters volunteer to be placed into these situations. By volunteering they put themselves into the situations and are eventually changed by this. If they would have stayed home and never participated they would never experience the "duality of man" as you call it.

yea...so i kind of missed class on friday due to an unforseen event...but from what i have heard in previous classes, about all your ideas and all, i think you are probably the best prepared to get this paper done. im sure the power point was awesome b/c urs always are and yea...i cant really comment anymore b/c i wasnt there....
