Problem
How do the films Dark Knight and I Am Legend reflect some of the themes and issues addressed in Stops 11 and 12, with respect to the counter-counter culture, the emergence of the Angry White Male, and his fearful, hateful and violent response toward 'difference' and change?
And how are the films' attitudes towards the future reflected in their representations of the City?
Are these purely nihilistic films about the inevitable doom of civilization, through social decline or apocalypse?
Or is there a glimmer of optimism and hope, that civilization may survive and rise again?
Don't forget to use examples from the films to support your points.
