I uploaded a picture onto my blog to show what I believe Dr.Horrible's heart looks like. He was heart-broken because Captain Hammer got to have Penny and no matter what Dr.Horrible did, she would not be with him. I believe he had the innate desire to get ahead and to be apart of the "group" but I think the desire grew stronger because of Penny.
The end of the film, Penny dies during a fight between Dr.Horrible and Captain Hammer. A lot of people will do anything while coping with a broken heart. Although Dr.Horrible had placed a band-aid over his stab womb in his heart, it still hurt. The pain would not go away so he had to do something about it.
We see this kind of thing happening in reality. Middle school girls physically fight after school, women shoot their cheating husbands or vice versa, and people refuse to let go of the hurt and pain. I have decided that Dr.Horrible needs serious counseling. I doubt he would go, since he is so pleased with himself but it would be the best thing for him. He could wind up hurting someone else. Maybe out of his heart-brokeness he wants to hurt other people. We will never know the true thoughts of Dr.Horrible.

"I believe he had the innate desire to get ahead and to be apart of the "group" but I think the desire grew stronger because of Penny."
ReplyDeleteI agree that the doctor had a strong need to be apart of a group. But I don't believe as result of wanting to apart of the evil group, his desire grew stronger for Penny.
I believe that once the the doctor had competition for Penny( Captain Hammer), he desired her more. Dr. Horrible always had the desire for being accepted in that evil league.
I can relate to the doctor in that aspect. In high school, I really wanted to be apart of the popular group. It was one of my sad goals ( as a freshman). As time passed, I realized that I would have to change who I was and become something I didn't want to be. I am not saying the popular people were evil, but it wouldn't be a lifestyle that would praise Christ, which is the most important.
But obviously, Christ was the last thing on the doctors mind and in the end, he wasn't happy.
