1. What is a hero? Does a hero always do things that are heroic?
A hero doesn’t always have to be
somebody that does something heroic it could be a family member or a good friend
or whatever you feel makes somebody a hero. Does a hero always do things that
are heroic? In short no they do not always do something that is heroic. For example
Harvey dent from batman, everybody called him a hero because he was cleaning up
the streets of Gotham city. But then the Joker makes the town pick between on
or the other and the girl ends up dying, then all the sudden Harvey is going
around killing people based on a coin flip. Same batman film, batman uses everybody’s
personal cellphones to make the town a huge radar to find the joker fast,
pretty unheroic in my opinion. With the movie Hero, I’m not sure why they even
called it hero because nobody really becomes a hero in my opinion. I guess the
main character could be considered a hero by not killing the emperor like he
planned. He saw what the emperor was trying to do with Asia, so he didn’t kill
him. I think it’s just a bit of a stretch to call him a hero for that because
if somebody is going to jump of a building and somebody else talks them down,
the person that was about to jump is not considered a hero and will probably
end up getting counseling but the person that talked them down is considered
the hero. So by that logic, the emperor should be considered the hero.
