The hero is the guy in a story who we are supposed to root for as we boo the villain but sometimes when analyse it we realise that the hero isnt all thst good or thr villain isnt all that bad.Sometimes u might realise it's the villain who is the one we should actually cheer.
Case in point- Tom and jerry. Jerry is a pest who steals and spoils good while speeding diseases. Tom is a cat who's job is to catch mice and thus protect the owners food....see my point.
So are there any heroes you realise weren't worth cheering for or villains not worth booing.
Robinson Crusoe. He becomes less sympathetic when u realise if memory serves correct he was shipwrecked while going to get slaves for the plantation.
The classic movie Ferris beullers day off.
Ferris doesn't feel like going to school,so he lies to his parents about being sick,convince his actually sick friend to come with him andtake his father's car for transp. Also he lies to get his girlfriend out of school.
The villain? The principal who goes to catch Ferris. How dare he try to make a ttuat go to school. Note Ferris has done this 9 times already.
Here a jarring one I watched and realised as well 2001 movie -Two can play that game. Our protagonist catches her boyfriend cheating, and is justifiably angry. She decided to spend 10 days mentally torturing him to punish him. This includes,not taking his calls while talking to other men so people can report him and make him jealous, (women actually do this stuff in real life when their man isn't payongbthem the attention they want), coming over dressed sexy and getting intimate only to break away at the point it gets real hot. When he finaly had enough of that crap and tries to move I with another woman,she gets jealous and finds another man to make him jealous. In the end they reconcile and its all happy and romantic
Call me chauvinist but while this mightvjave some ladies jumping and screaming -Get that cheating bastard girl! There's something fundamentally evil about her actions. You don't 'punish' your partner, especially not by torturing them mentally or otherwise ,that's abusive the fact that she willfully involves other men and play with their feelings to do it makes it even worse. Not to say his actions we're justified but she should either have confronted it and either dumpedhim or stayed and worked with him in restoring the relationship . he shouldve dumoed hee for playingthose mind games
