Introduction to Personification in Pop Culture
In many superhero movies and comic books, inanimate objects or elements of nature are given human qualities to make scenes more vivid and engaging. For example, in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the storms summoned by Thor are often described as 'mighty giants awakening from slumber,' bringing the weather to life with human-like strength and intent. Similarly, in a popular anime, a glowing city skyline is portrayed as 'the watchful guardian, standing tall and proud,' embodying human traits to evoke feelings of safety and awe.
