Final Anthem
I honestly, really enjoyed my novel, Anthem. The story was about a time in the future when all people have lost faith in religion and technology. All people on Earth have returned to their primitive ways. There are no cars, planes etc. All people look at technology and religion as something of the past that needs to be forgotten. At birth, people are placed into certain groups according to their physical and mental abilities. The story follows a group of, "smarter than average," men named Equality 7-2521. I really like the story because it shows the way that faith and religion always seem to intrigue us. At first religion doesn't exist, but eventually the men from Equality 7-2521 begin to figure out how the world works, and they all gain back their faith in religion. I recommend this novel to anybody, it's very entertaining.

man vs anthem
In my novel, Anthem, man vs man is shown by the intellectual and physical struggles between each group. When somebody is born, they are put into groups according to their hpysical and mental capabilities. I notice an example of man vs nature in the fact that all of the people are deathly afraid of the forests. None of the people will enter or even approach the forests due to fear of being killed by the animals. Man vs society is portrayed well by the way the main group of the story, Equality 7-2521, are discovering how absolutely terrible their society is. Man vs himself is hown by all the characters. Every single character of Equality 7-2521 shows major developments in their characteristics. Man vs God is the most commonly portrayed conflict in this story. The group is finally realizing that their is a major creator of everything and they are all beginning to show faith in what seems to be a form of religion.

Star Wars Final
I was right, the relationship between Han Solo and Luke Skywalker did play a very great role in the movie. The main thing that I enjoyed about the story was the character development shown by the characters of the Rebellion. Each character shows great change in their character. On the good side all the characters are round and dynamic, showing plenty of change. On the evil side all of the characters are the total opposite. In the Empire, they are flat and show absolutely no developments. They sho no signs of sympathy or care for one another, where in the Rebellion every body cares for each other with a strong love. Both sides are tied together and noteable mostly because of Luke, who is good, being related to Darth Vader, who is evil. It is very ironic.

Star Wars
Han Solo seems to be the toughest character. He likes to be in charge and has a great big ego; I think his stubbornness will play a great role in the movie. Solo and Luke Skywalker have a very close bond. This close bond, as well as all others portrayed in the film seem as if they will also play a major role in the movie. Chubaka has a pet like/friend like attachment to Han Solo. Princess Laya is attracted to Luke Skywalker, but she seems to be falling more and more for the "bad ass" character, Han Solo. C-3PO is very caring and affectionate, especially for a robot. R2D2, also a robot, is like a young child. He seems more like a robot form of a child of Luke Skywalkers, rather than a machine. Yoda is extremely hilarious. Although he is the Jedi master, he still seems to act like a child, playing jokes and behaving immaturely. Han solo seems to find C-3PO very annoying, but I don't think it is just because he talks too much. I thin that Han Solo is jealous of C-3PO's intelligence, therefore he despises him.

faith
In my novel, the group Equality 7-2521 is the main group that is focused on. They are the only group of men who are superior or intelligent enough to make any sense of the real world. Therefore, they are the only ones who consider their faith in religion. As every other group is simply just living there lives oblivious to faith, the men from Equality 7-2521 are seeking the truth behind religion. After two of the men from the group find an old sewer from the technological times before them, they begin to really believe that there is a God, or a main creator of life. They conjure up many different ideas on what to believe, but obviously, none of them are absolutely positive about what they believe. The faith that has been restored to the men of Equality 7-2521 seems to be the main fuel for their intellectual rise.
