Abstract

Terminator 1 is a 1984 science fiction movie about a robot who is sent from the future to kill a person named Sarah Connor, because her son is destined to lead humanity in the war against robots. The movie shows the futuristic depiction of AI technology and their potential capabilities as weapons. The rapid development of AI had also raised some concerns at the time with people worrying about AI being more than capable of surpassing humanity. Although the concept of AI gaining sentience is merely fiction, the application of AI as weapons is something that has become more real with each passing day. This study explores the concept of AI in Terminator 1 using Poiesis or the creation of new ideas from old ones to see how the movie has inspired the evolution of AI in the modern world. Additionally, this study aims to describe the movie's portrayal of AI and compare it to modern AI technology in real life. Through this study we found that the nature of AI is depicted accurately within the movie’s time of release. However, the applications of AI technology were still fictitious.

Abstract

Stoic masculinity emphasizes endurance, emotional control, and rational action and is often represented visually in action movies. This study examines the representation of stoic masculinity in the movie Sisu (2022) through visual and symbolic elements rather than verbal expression. Using a descriptive qualitative method, the data are collected through movie observation and analysis of selected scenes. The analysis applies Roland Barthes’s semiotic theory, focusing on denotative, connotative, and mythic meanings, supported by Stoic philosophy as articulated by Marcus Aurelius. The findings show that stoic masculinity in Sisu is constructed through endurance of physical suffering, emotional control under threat and loss, and rational action in extreme situations. Among the visual symbols identified in the movie, bodily scars and prolonged silence appear as the most dominant signs representing stoic masculinity. Scars function as visual evidence of endurance and survival from past suffering, while silence and minimal speech represent emotional restraint and internal discipline. Other symbolic elements, such as calmness during confrontation, rational responses to injury, and calculated decision making, further reinforce the representation of stoic masculinity.The movie presents stoic masculinity as a visual identity shaped through action, self control, and cinematic techniques, contributing to the understanding of stoic masculinity representation in movie.
