#11 Thesis Statement

From the previous posts that I mentioned, I would like to link the two movies together and make a thesis. I wanted to choose Ender's Game and Tron Legacy as first since both of them are related to game. For some reason, ended up the two movies that I picked will be The Matrix and Tron Legacy. The similarities of the two movies are they immerse their physical body, also known as real identity into the computer program (virtual world).

The Matrix - Matrix (Real world that people thought) = Computer Program
                     - Zion = Real World
                     - People are more desire to be in virtual world. 

In the movie, Cypher, the Judas-like character who betrays the team, makes a statement saying that if he had to choose between the Matrix and the real world, his choice was the Matrix. He chose it because illusion of a better life that Matrix can offer, although he would never truly live.

Tron Legacy -Grid = Computer Program
                       - People from virtual world wanted to enter the real world.

In the movie, Clu was trying so hard to leave 'grid' and enter the real world. Clu simply felt that doing the same to the real world was the natural next step to his original directive from Flynn, as Flynn wanted to create a perfect system in the virtual world as well.

Both of the movies have the human connection between REAL IDENTITY and VIRTUAL WORLD. From the movies, we can see that the real identities are having challenges in the virtual world. At this point, I would like to link the movies to human connection instead of modelling real identity in the virtual world.
