ABSTRACT
Aside from being entertainment that is full of meaning, movies convert drama texts
through audio-visual or cinematography which has structures such as language. In
addition, the film has also become a part of the human physical and psychological
experiences to be a human stimulus in expressions, both verbal and kinesthetic. One
of them is Thor movie (2011). Thor movie telling about Thor experiences life in
two universes: God Universe and Human Universe. And the problem shows that
Thor’s mental and physical state is contrasted and compared to the villains in every
universe. So this research addressed in showing the importance of mental and
physical state of a hero. This research is purposed to find and describe the opposite
mental and physical state of Thor and villains in each universe. Then Thor movie
is important to be analysed because it emphasizes the mental concept of a hero.
Thor movie also shows the God concept and human concept. This research is a
qualitative study which applies the binary opposition of structuralism theory from
Levi Strauss and film theory from Villarejo. This study concluded that Thor and
Villains showed binary opposition in their own mental and physical characters,
whether when living in the God universe or human universe. The difference in
character showed that there was the main binary opposition which intended to be
shown, that were natural x cultural. Thor’s mental state that occurs in the human
universe was affected by the culture of human universe, where Thor was exiled
from the God universe. In the other hand, the physical state occurred in the God
universe was because of his nature as God which was created to be the hero in ThorNIM. 12150035 DWI YANTI2019-11-14T02:01:25Z2019-11-14T02:01:25Zhttp://digilib.uin-suka.ac.id/id/eprint/36596This item is in the repository with the URL: http://digilib.uin-suka.ac.id/id/eprint/365962019-11-14T02:01:25ZMENTAL AND PHYSICAL STATE OF THOR AS BINARY
