How is MANIA portrayed in modern superhero/action movies? (think Star Wars, Marvel, Transformer, & etc). Do filmmakers use themes such as militarism, alliances, nationalism, and imperialism in movies? in Google Classroom

How is MANIA portrayed in modern superhero/action movies? (think Star Wars, Marvel, Transformer, & etc). Do filmmakers use themes such as militarism, alliances, nationalism, and imperialism in movies?

Review MANIA - Militarism, Alliance, Nationalism, Imperialism, & Assassination
EXAMPLE: The 2015 film Jupiter Ascending talks about a hidden galatic empire where Earth is a property that is owned by the Ultra Evolved & Ultra Rich aliens who will eventually turn Earths people into food to prolong their life. This example is most likely an example of Imperialism but on a larger galatic scale.
