In this blog I am comparing the difference between Frankenstein the book with Frankenstein the movie. There several differences between the book and movie such as Frankenstein getting married and his dad being there, Monster bringing Elizabeth back to life. There are many examples that can be explained this blog will cover everything you want to know as far as the similarities and differences.

The similarities between Frankenstein the movie and Frankenstein the movie are the marriage between Elizabeth and Victor happened in both but things were changed to make them better for each situation. Another example is having the monster being in both but changes the what the monster does and his words change a little bit. There the exact same scenes in the both but the order was reversed to help with certain things. The events were happening that were the same but in the order changed.

The differences between Frankenstein the movie and Frankenstein the book were that the movie started where the book ended was a real plot twist because I did not expect that to happen. Victors father was killed in the book during his marriage but in the movie he was alive during the marriage in the book which I thought was strange. The monster killing Elizabeth in the movie then lighting her on fire but in the book he killed Justine and left her to die not bring her back to life major difference changed the way I imagined things. Victor in the movie skipped his trip to England instead got married and went on a honeymoon in the book he travels to England and does not go on a honey moon.

In the last 2 paragraphs you have seen the differences and similarities of the book Frankenstein and Frankenstein the movie. Hope this cleared up the differences and similarities for you to better understand the book and movie.

In the book Frankenstein the author Mary Shelley uses certain issues such as science and knowledge for the good of the people and not for personal ambitions without having to take personal responsibility. It also is a novel of social rejection  based on external looks  and the inability to accept the rejection given. The real monster in Frankenstein the book is not victor but the creature himself who dared to undermine laws of nature then play God.

The first aspect of the prompt is how the novel uses social rejection as a way to reveal the true monster in the story of Frankenstein. The monster faces social rejections from his creator then gets rejected by the towns people when he reveals himself. An example is  “I knew you didn’t want me to be a part of yours, that you rejected me moments after you gave me life” (Shelly chapter 11 page 92).That is one example of how his creator socially ignored him and hurt him deep down. Another example is the family rejecting the monster “Felix and Agatha were shocked to see me and immediately thought the worst. They cried out in fear and the boy dragged me away from his father. He threw me out of the house, and Agatha fainted.” (Shelly chapter 11 page 93). This is another example of how the family rejects the monster when he reveals himself to the family. Those are 2 quoted times in the book when the monster was socially rejected.

The second aspect of the book is the external looks and the rejection that the monster gives himself after he is not able to accept his true self. The creature after he has been socially rejected he looks at himself and says that he is not worth it. He also feels like no body wants to be around him because of how ugly he is not even his creator he believes will say he is pretty. “I knew that no one in the world would ever accept me because I looked this way” (Shelly chapter 11 page 85). This quote is explaining how the monster after being rejected by the family he can no longer be able to socially accept himself and believes that the whole world will not be able to accept him as well. Another example is how the creature feels that his creation will not accept him for what he looks like. “I hated you Frankenstein, for bringing me into a world that would never accept me” (Shelly chapter 11 page 85) This quote is explaining how the creature thinks that if the world will not accept me you as my creator will not accept me as well.

Mary Shelly seems to use this 2 aspects as a way to call the reader not to forget what really makes the true monster in the book of Frankenstein. Such as not forgetting about the experiments and development of this creature to come to life. If we read between the lines a little bit we see the author telling us that the moral values should be not be forgotten and the dead remain dead. She also implies that every man has to take responsibility for there actions with every action there are consequences. A true man should be ready to take responsibility for his actions and all consequences associated with it. In the story the creature is simply the victim of victors scientific ambitions that that cause the creature to become the real monster in the story. That is why the creature in the story is truly the monster in a more human like state. That is why I think the true monster of the book Frankenstein is the monster himself that only makes since because he was a victim turned human that real human issues.

Valentine’s Day is  a day that is celebrated throughout the world. We spend on average 14 billion dollars each year on this day alone. It is crazy to think that this is a very diabolical issue that is debated on even if it should be celebrated at all or if it should be kept as a holiday. It does not seem that one day makes us happy then all the other days of the year we are the same old grumpy people. How is this whole issue becoming a cogent argument that has had our heads spinning since it was invented back many centuries ago over in england for a king. The two debatable topics are “Should it be celebrated” or “Should it not be celebrated” that is two cogent arguments that persuade one side and the other for a very argumentative but confusing issue. According to a study done on debate.org over this topic it is said that 47% percent say yes and 53% percent say no it should not be a holiday. It is a topic that is needed to be debated for a while and here are the 2 sides presented for you.

Should Valentine’s day be celebrated it is an issue that has long been debated for many years why is there one day out of the year that we spend being happy but then the next day go back and be the same person we were before. According to debate.com 43% say yes it should and the reasons why are because it puts fun back into schools one day gets get a free fun day to celebrate with friends plus have parties to show love. Another reason is that is helps remind each other just how much we love them a little bit more than we already do. It is said that is the most expensive holiday besides Christmas because we send cards and chocolate and gifts. It is also has been a tradition for years in america for us to come together and love each other. Personally it makes me feel very happy on that day to receive cards plus gifts it is one of my favorite holidays to celebrate besides thanksgiving and christmas. Could you imagine if it was used everyday how much more love would be poured into the world that is not already there. Some say we should keep it but it is not the greatest holiday invented because we should not just have one day to love each other take each day to love each other. Others take the day as the day that love reigns all throughout the day and it combines one day for all the love that is already cultivated by our culture. That is the argument on why it should be kept as a holiday in the United States plus in the world without that one day we might not be able to express our love in one day.

Should Valentine’s day not be celebrated according to Debate. org 53% of people say no that it should not celebrated or be apart of our holidays. Some believe that there is no point to having the day because we should show our love to each other everyday not just one day a year. Another person believes that is sucks there is no point or there is no evidence to back up the truth behind the holiday. How can we be for certain that is areal holiday if we not even agree on why it should or should not be celebrated. A lot of people have said that it should be eliminated from our calendars because it is one whole devoted to a pointless topic of love and roses and chocolate. In my opinion I think there should not be a holiday at all we should be able to give the one’s we love a rose or chocolates or cards every day of the year not just some boring day on the calendar. It says in the article “History of Valentines day” that they used animals to slaughter to prove they love one another or used other means to prove a point. It sounds ridiculous that we have to use animals or love symbols to be able to prove love. This is a very distinct issue that should be reconsidered.
