Van Helsing 2 : Redemption - Original Trailer

I chose this film because it incorporated Frankenstein, Dracula and many elements of a Gothic scenario Like:Darkness,mystery,gargoyles,vampires,castles.all of this elements are such a great combination for an excellent Gothic movie.

In 1861, Doctor Richard Gatling patented the Gatling Gun, a six-barreled weapon capable of firing a (then) phenomenal 200 rounds per minute. The Gatling gun was a hand-driven, crank-operated, multi-barrel, machine gun. The first machine gun with reliable loading, the Gatling gun had the ability to fire sustained multiple bursts.
Richard Gatling created his gun during the American Civil War, he sincerely believed that his invention would end war by making it unthinkable to use due to the horrific carnage possible by his weapons. At the least, the Gatling Gun's power would reduce the number of soldiers required to remain on the battlefield.
The 1862 version of the gatling gun had reloadable steel chambers and used percussion caps. It was prone to occasional jamming. In 1867, Gatling redesigned the Gatling gun again to use metallic cartridges - this version was bought and used by the United States Army.
World power is very charming for everybody. Everybody wants to role over the world just like victor wanted to. All these people invent the machines to be the most powerful person in the world and end up harming the world with his invention.

Invention of the postage stamp

Before the use of adhesive paper stamps, letters were hand stamped or postmarked with ink. Postmarks were the invention of Henry Bishop and were at first called 'Bishop mark' after the inventor. Bishop marks were first used in 1661 at the London General Post Office. They marked the day and month the letter was mailed.
The first issued postage stamp began with Great Britain's Penny Post. On May 6, 1840, the British Penny Black stamp was released. The Penny Black was engraved the profile of Queen Victoria's head, who remained on all British stamps for the next sixty years. Rowland Hill created the first stamp.
A schoolmaster from England, Rowland Hill invented the adhesive postage stamp in 1837, an act for which he was knighted. Through his efforts the first stamp in the world was issued in England in 1840. Roland Hill also created the first uniform postage rates that were based on weight rather than size. Hill's stamps made the prepayment of mail postage possible and practical.
Walton, a captain of a ship, told the victor’s story in a series of letters to his sister. These letters could not reach Walton’s sister without the postal services and the postal stamps.

In the movie The Matrix, the few people left in the world are at war with machines. Man made machines and they started to take over. This is like Frankenstein because its all about tecnology getting out of hand. Dr. Frankenstein invisioned his creation as something great like the humans in The Matrix. But his creation ended up ruined his life and changed it forever.

Roswell

In the show Roswell, 4 aliens are left to be born on earth. They have no idea why they were abandond on earth. They didn't know were they from why they were here, or how to use there powers. They couldn't remember anything about their home planet. They searched for answers. This is like the monster because he was abandond and did not know how to do anything. He didn't know where he came from, who created him and later didn't understand why he was created. He was determind to find out.

Percy Jackson

Percy is a kid but his father is Posiden [greek God of the sea]. The 3 major gods are not suppose to have kids because they are to powerful. Percy is the demi god in the world who is forbidden. No one will be freinds of him or trust him. He is a good person, loyal and brave but know one will give him a chance until another demigod of the big three comes up. This is just like the monster in Frankenstein because the monster is the olny one and is wants a companion that is just like him. No one will get to know the monster because hes different jusy like percy. The monster had a good heart but no one will get to know him.
