Topic > Analysis of the relationship between Dr. Horrible and Doris

When most people think of a movie with superheroes and a villain, they think of a movie about the hero defeating the villain. Dr. Horrible Sing Along Blog is not one of those films. In this film we see that the main focus is on the villain Billy aka Dr. Horrible. This movie is about him trying to get into the League of Evil, or ELE, which is a collection of the most evil villains in this universe, but he's also trying to make the love of his life, Penny, fall in love with him. with him. The first time she talks to him, he is stealing a component to power his freeze ray. He too is too busy with the robbery to pay much attention to her. Just as he is about to get the component, we met the "hero" Captain Hammer. She tries to stop Dr. Horrible but instead he "saves" a penny and she falls in love with him. With his newly upgraded freeze ray he tries to take down Captain Hammer but ends up failing because he mentioned his robbery on his blog. He is then told by Bad Horse, the leader of the ELE, that he knows he has to kill someone to get through. She doesn't really want to kill anyone until she finds out that Captain Hammer comes out with a penny just because he wants her. . He devises a plan to kill Captain Hammer while speaking at a homeless shelter. The attempt fails when his freeze ray runs out of power and Captain Hammer punches him to the ground. Captain Hammer ends up grabbing the death ray that Dr. Horrible was going to use to kill him and aims it at him. It backfires and shoots shrapnel everywhere killing Penny and making Captain Hammer feel pain for the first time. Captain Hammer gives up being a superhero because he doesn't like pain and Dr. Horrible enters the ELE. In the final scene of the film you see Billy looking at... middle of paper... things to try to make the world better. The only reason Captain Hammer does things is to better himself. In conclusion, this film shows that John Doris' situationist view is correct and that the dispositionalist view is wrong. These people are not defined by general traits but by the little things in their lives that gravitate them to one side. This film clearly demonstrates this. This film is a fantastic account of the perspective of a not-so-evil villain. We see how most people have not just one trait but a combination of many. Also that sometimes a small thing can give you the push to do something you wouldn't normally do. We know that Dr. Horrible is just a misunderstood individual who only wants to improve his and everyone else's lives and that Captain Hammer is a self-centered person who only wants the best for himself. As I always say, don't judge a book by its cover.
