The Sixth Sense is a Superior Film to 12 Angry Men [or other film disagreement]

http://www.youtube.com...THE BURDEN OF PROOFRemember, the burden of proof is shared. My opponent not only has to refute my points, he also has to give good reasons for why 12 Angry Men is better than the Sixth Sense. If he can only rebut my points and not support his, or I only refute his and not support mine, then we are only stating that the two films are equal, and thus it would be a tie. Onto the debate then. There are two big reasons in my opinion why the Sixth Sense is better than 12 Angry Men. Now, first off, we must say that these are two completely different films, so it would be difficult to compare them. However, we can still talk about the movies in terms of ENTERTAINMENT and DEPTH. First off, note that different viewers would like different things; so we couldn't necessarily compare the horror moments of the Sixth Sense versus 12 Angry Men presenting the clues and slowly unfolding the case. But, we CAN compare one thing: predictability. Argument One: The Sixth Sense's Plot Twist Now then, whoever has heard of the movie has definitely heard of the plot twist. It is one of the best plot twists of all time. You can see it through my video above to refresh your memory: yes, the phsychologist was dead from the very beginning. Why does this make 6th sense superior to 12 Angry men, you say? Well, it shows that The Sixth Sense is more masterfully executed and therefore a better masterpiece than 12 Angry Men. You see, the whole thing about 12 Angry Men is justice. You KNOW the boy's going to turn out innocent from the end, because just from the start you already see one guy say he's innocent. 12 Angry Men can only play around with the clues and try to be clever. However, the Sixth Sense takes a completely different approach. Not only is the plot twist unexpected and shocking, when you go back, there are scattered clues everywhere--the wife completely ignores the physcologist; the physcologist doesn't interact with anyone except Cole, the boy who can see dead people; and the physcologist doesn't have to move anything [he simply slided into the chair in that beginning scenery]. Not only is the shock factor and the depth of the Sixth Sense add entertainment level to the movie, it also adds the ability to re-watch the movie at least once for seeing and analyzing all the clues within the movie. It's a much better film than 12 Angry Men in this sense. If you know all the clues, there's really no sense in rewatching this jury case, as gripping as it was within the first watch.Argument two: A more relevant symbolism s://31.media.tumblr.com...; alt="" width="480" height="294" /> Both films represent a real issue in real life. You see, 12 Angry Men's message is obvious: the jury system at the time was biased and unfair, and the jury should have taken the time to think it through. However, Sixth Sense is more relevant to modern day: children have disabilities and need help, but are misunderstood. From Autism to OCD to ADHD, even in the modern world we still have problems fixing these and trying to help these children. While 12 Angry Men's problem was fixed a long time ago with the civil war and adding upon women's rights, along with balancing out the branches, we can't really relate to the problem as well as we did to the Sixth Sense's symbolism. Thus, since Sixth Sense's message is technically closer to the people, I have to say, its symbolism is better than 12 Angry Men.As you can see I have solid reasons why the Sixth Sense is a better film than 12 Angry Men. Indeed, 12 Angry Men did the impossible with dramatic tension in only one single room, but the Sixth Sense did better with a nearly unbeatable plot-twist while still showing a great deep message in Cole's struggle against the dead. Thank you for reading and I now will hand over the debate to my opponent.
