After watching Snowpiercer the most significant scene, in my opinion was when Curtis lead them into the aquarium. After having some sushi and learning that it was a rarity, because maintaining the aquarium ecosystem only allowed a small amount of fish to be taken out. I think this was the most important scene because at that point they realized that the train was an giant contained ecosystem. They realized how intricate the train really was.

Question 3:

I believed the most significant scene at the time was the scene where Mason put the passenger's arm outside of the train as punishment. She uses him to demonstrate her power over them, by giving a speech that compares the tail passengers to shoes. She tells them that they resemble a shoe while she resembles a hat on top on the head alluding to her place at the front of the train. I believe this is significant because it gave the audience knowledge about how the train was being run, which helped us understand the rest of the movie.

               the most interest thing in this films is when they took a guy and put his hands outside of the thing to freeze his hands and then break it because is was sadness seeing people do that to a poor guy, it was completely bad and heartbreaking. The guy shouldn't do that to a guy like himself being a father and been took away his child witch is was evil completely.

Question 1 Snowpiercer Jackie Loss

I believe the most significant scenes in this movie is when the shoe appears. The first time the shoe appears is when Minister Mason uses it to show where the tail end people are in the hierarchy of the train. This shoe is latter seen again when the tail end people use a shoe again and place it on top of Minister Mason's head.These scenes are important because it shows the placement of the hierarchy and then the take over of the train by the tail end people. I believe the overall statement of this movie is political and takes on Darwinian Economic Determination. Where there is so much economic inequality that their only way to move up is to fight your way up higher.

Snowpiercer

In the Snowpiercer, I thought the most significant scene was when they opened some kind of window of the train. Everyone on the train was surprised to see what the remaining of the city looks like after the ice age.

Since I started watching this movie there has been many scenes and symbols I feel that are important but the one that stands out to me the most is the symbol of the bridge, The bridge plays such a huge role in this movie by every time they pass the bridge it means they have circled around the world again due to it being an ice age one of the characters Yona looks closer trying to find a plane that once crashed there seeing a way to leave the train itself. I feel the overall meaning of this movie is that it is trying to tell you that being stuck at the end of the train treated like prisoners for 18 years, circling around and around the world signals the end of the world and every man and woman has to make a stand to decide what is right for the better most part of the group. The scene helps support this because whenever they cross that bridge everyone knows what it means it means that one whole year has passed again and that they have been around the world. Knowing that it might never end is a scary thought.

SnowPiercer Question #2

So far, I feel the scene that displayed the guy bum rushing the guards have proved most significant at this point. It sent off a trigger that was desperately needed to bring out the courage in others to step up and revolt. This also might've been the scene that established him as the leader of the pack. Attacking the guards allowed them to bust through numerous walls in which they didn't have access to before. This also allowed them to discover new interventions amongst the train such  as the guy that had been in a deep sleep for what seemed like for awhile. He had knowledge of unlocking and wiring around the train that could prove extremely valuable later on.

In the film Snowpiercer several significant scenes have come to my attention. The setting of Snowpiercer is on a train. The most profound and significant scene that has stuck out to me is the symbolism of the shoe. Prior to this scene a mans son is taken from him. The distraught man retaliates by throwing a shoe at the women who took his son. Unfortunately, the authority on this train are extremist. The man has to be punished for disobeying authority. The man is forced to stick his arm out of a port on the train. It is severely snowing out and the temperature I'm sure is below freezing. The mans arm gets completely frozen solid. The vicious authority take a sludge hammer and smash the poor mans arm off. This was a gruesome scene.

A women of significant authority from the front of the train gives the tenants of the back of the train a lecture. The women proceeds to remind the tenants of their place. Reminding the passengers that they belong to the tail of the train. She goes into detail that any kind of rebellion or disobeying will not be tolerated. It will result in sever punishment. The women proceeds to tell the passengers that they should be a shoe. She says that a shoe belongs on your foot, and not on your head. That is implying the passengers place on the train. At the bottom. This scene is significant because it sets the tone of the movie and really displays the kinds of conditions the passengers are under.  The scene also shows the anticipation the passengers have to start the rebellion to the front of the train.

I believe that the most significant scene in the movie so far is when the door opens and both sides are staring each other in the face. I think that this signified what the plot has been so far which is both sides of the train trying either to gain the power or to keep the power. It was the most climaxtic moment in the movie when both sides were waiting for the other to make a move. It seems like after this moment there will be a clear upper hand in this battle for supremecy. This moment stuck out the most for me as the most important moment and scene in the movie so far.

Snowpiercer

I believe the most significant scene we have seen so far is one of the first scenes. When the prisoners are asked if there are any violin players and the man and his wife stand up. When it was stated they only needed the man and he turned away the invitation then they crushed his wife's hand and took him anyway. This shows how horribly the poor people on the back of this train have been treated and in the end of this scene you can see how they stay discussing their plan to revolt saying "now is the time" this is showing that this passengers are fed up with the way they've been treated for the last 17 years and are ready to take a stand.

So far I feel the most significant scene was when the children were being taken away. This scene slowly set the stage for the revolt  to take place. It was a major turning point, because once the children were taken way I feel as though the passengers were fed up. Although they were already planning to revolt the sight of those children being ripped away sent the passengers into a frenzy especially the parents. This led a man to have his arm frozen to ice and broken off with a hammer.

The most significant scene in the film is the one about unity. It is in the middle of the second fight scene where the rebels from the back of the train are fighting the people in the black hoods. During the fight there is the part where the main character is about to be killed but then out of no where his best friend saves his life. This is small symbolism for a very big picture, that alone the rebels are weak but together they are unstoppable. With this they will win the rebellion.

Question 2




English 200-02 Hill

Snow Piercer

                         I feel that the most significant scene in the movie of Snow piercer so far is when the one lady through her shoe at one of the guards on the train after they took her son away from here when she was trying to hide her son from them. And before that they had one of the guys who was trying to get his son back to after he was taken he was trying to fight his way through them but that action he took cost him his life after they froze his arm outside of the train and then smashed his arm with a hammer. These actions led to a rebellion with all the people who were basically treated like prisoners rebelled against the guards and started to battle against some of them with the help of an older gentleman who designed the train and the locks on it with the help of him they were able to go past doors and get their revenge on them shortly discovering what they have been eating everyday for the past 17 years is basically grounded up bugs.

Question 2.

ENG 200/Hill

Question 2:

                The most significant scene in the film at this point is the scene when one of the passangers threw a shoe at the teacher (lady in the yellow jacket). He was sick of the way the passangers are treated and wanted a revolt. The guards developed early authority in the movie. In the following scenes he was punished. The guards froze his arm and broke it off with a hammer. Fear was creating a suspenseful setting. Curtis the leader of the pact of passangers was planning a revolt but then needed to think smarter.
