I don't think Napoleon was necessarily more intelligent than Snowball, but rather Napoleon was more cunning whereas Snowball was more innovative in his endeavours.
Like Stalin and Trotsky !
robtoe10 yeah, napoleon was actually not that intelligent, as the thought they couldnt blow up the windmill
Napolean was more ruthless that's the difference. There are many unintelligent people who do very well out of life from being ruthless even though they themselves are stupid. We need to stop equating ruthlessness with genius level intelligence, it's a fallacy and is holding the human race back.
Napoleon was a parody of Stalin
Stolen
The quote that really speaks to me is, "A bird's wing, comrades, is an organ of propulsion and not of manipulation. It therefore should be regarded as a leg. The distinguishing mark of man is the hand, the instrument with which he does all his mischief.
I am Boxer... Loyal, kind, hardworking, and sold to the knacker for whiskey.
Cream of What lol stfu, you're the fatass old pig lmao
the quote that really speaks to me is "Four legs good, two legs bad"
+Sreekar Tiruchunapally what does that quote mean?
The quote that really speaks to me is 'The pigs had managed to acquire another case of whiskey.'
Jokes, jokes. But it's a v. good book.
The book is one of the best ever written. Short, simple, but spot on
"all animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others"
In the end, no one can tell which is human and which is animal.
Two legs good, four legs better!
Two legs good, four legs better!
Two legs good, four legs better!
No animal shall drink alcohol *_Cough Cough_* to an extent
No animal shall sleep in a bed *Cough cough* with sheets.
"Wings count as legs"
Did you know that giving a pig name Napoleon is illegal in France?
Woah.
Yep-In the French version of this book Napoleon is called César
lmao
Do you reckon he knew this
Napoleon Mighty Leader?
"The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which."
This book is truly fantastic
The Pink Floyd album Animals is about Animal Farm. The three main songs off the album are Dogs, Pigs, and Sheep. It's a very good one and I highly recommend it if you like Animal Farm or Pink Floyd
thank you, I'll check it out
It’s based off animal farm but it’s more of a critique of English Corporatism and the rise of Thacther’s neoliberalism during the 70s and would lead into the 80s
I was about to mention that but then I saw your comment....!!!
Commies saw a book criticizing communism but it was so good that they took it and changed it into their own piece of propaganda. They certainly missed a song called "squealer" where they talk about musicians like them.
Thats why I'm here after listening to dogs. Read the comments below, then discovered this.
Boxer does NOT die as a result of injuries defending the farm; he works himself to death. Otherwise, very well done.
Not quite. He couldn't work, so he was sent to the Knackers. That's how the pigs buy the case of whisky in the book.
He was actually taken to the horse slaughter
He was sent the glue factory by Napoleon in the animated film
Ya
I respect boxers hardwork through out the novel
The best book I ever read, and a shame that neither movie could live up to it at all, so much was left out!
The Great Gatsby and Animal Farm are the two greatest opposing books in history!
i have heard something about that they want to make a new movie about it, or maybe i was just high either way, i hope they do
Snowball was supposed to be a cat but they made snowball a pig
fluffylovey i8
Barely any adaptation lives up to its source material anyway.
'More intelligent Napoleon' - ???? Errr don't think so lady.. More evil, perhaps, but not more intelligent.
more cunning, perhaps
TheGlobuleReturns Napolean was smart
The OneHandBandit Definitely
yeah well he did overrule snowball, didn't he?
hail to the horse are you some kind of idiot.
I still cry when I think of how the pigs treated poor boxer.
Animal farm became a stressful depressing school project. 🙍
Purple Cucumber Try 1984.
1984 got straight up depressing, part 3 is just hopeless
Alex Nothnagle Yeah, but it still is a great read.
Purple Cucumber l?

Our teacher wants us to make a play out of Animal Farm. We have a week to prepare
Correction: Boxer suffers major injury while building the windmill, not during an attack.
I read the book yesterday and you're incorrect. He suffered several blows from the battle, but his wounds got worse through building that windmill.
+Jorge Figueroa Ah, alright. I wad just going from the live action film; my bad. It's been a decade since I read the book. xD
+Jorge Figueroa he actually suffered the major injury while building the windmill for the 3rd time. Refer to page 119
+Jorge Figueroa he actually suffered the major injury (which put him into "retirement") by building the windmill for the 3rd time. Refer to page 119.
i actually remember it both ways
i know the cartoon had it happen in the battle but i think in the book it's during the rebuilding
I'm still trying to get my friends who saw me reading it to understand that it isn't a kid's book.
Funny thing is, I read this in elementary school because I thought it was a kids book.
Draxus Ah. Were you traumatized at all?
@AValveFanboy Nah, i was fascinated. I really didn't get the metaphorical meaning, just seem like a cool story about animals. I do remember my teach did take me aside one day, because I was reading it in class and asked why I was reading it. I think I said, "Cuz it's got cool talking animals".
They need to reintroduce it to schools....
My favorite bit of trivia: the CIA paid to have Animal Farm adapted into the 1954 film. they thought it was a good propaganda opportunity in the culture wars with the USSR XD
Orwell was also an anti-Stalinist socialist
+mario64PKmetalhead all the best anti-communists were socialists
Orwell was not anti-communist.He was anti-totalitarism and anti-stalinism
Clorox Bleach I think of "communism" as "totalitarian socialism". Socialism by way of a totalitarian government. That's not necessarily what Marx called for with what he called "communism", and Orwell was definitely pro-Marx, but what society recalls as "communism" IS "Stalinism", and I've found it easier to drop both terms and refer to the collectivist future as "marxist" or just "socialist"
fuck it is human nature is bound to hiérarchisation. king is the best.
I cried when Boxer died D':
so did me,and my brother :(
I loved that horse. I vowed to name one of my future pets after him.
And watchmojo had to use that scene twice ;(
Boxers are dying to this day. IYKWIM
In such a horrible way. He was the most devoted among them to Napoleon, and the second he was no longer of use they killed him.
Another thing worth noting is that Andy Serkis is currently working on a film adaption for the story.
Really? That is awesome
He's doing The Jungle Book first, but can't wait for both.

Personally I don't think that analysis was informative enough. It's true that most clips on animal farm aren't but if you're going to make something like this it has to be at least entertaining. You can't make a "top ten" about important notes because they are ALL equally important. But I guess you could say some are more equal than others.
I see what you did there Flora Gosling
Flora Gosling LOL :D
Flora Gosling This is an abstract of the story, the authors of the video are not trying to say that there are some aspects that are more important than others, they are simply trying to resume the story of many pages and minutes in a shorter video... stop trying to see only the things that you want to see, you need to appreciate the entire video, not trying to make fancy comments in order to achieve many upvotes or "likes"... Thanks for the video WatchMojo.com
Jose Sousa What is the purpose behind this video? You say it's to condense the the story into a short video, but why? you'd assume it's to help student studying the book with their notes, my point is they do not go into enough detail, and that sticking rigidly to their "top ten" format does them no favors in trying to explain it. I watched the video hoping to get help with my studies, but having an "abstract" video doesn't help me in the least. Neither, I would argue, was it entertaining.
I think that the purpose of the video is not help student studying, it's purpose it's to summarize the story for anyone. Try at school to tell the entire story when your teacher asks you for an abstract, you'll be in serious troubles... The purpose of an abstract is to tell parts of the story or the main context. A student must learn that it's impossible to tell a story of 90 min in less than 15 min...
The 53 version is much better than the 1999 one.
ua-cam.com/video/1i0dNwwsVno/v-deo.html
Agreed.
Neither of them were great adaptations though
It’s ACTUALLY 54
Mmm hmm
all animals are equal...but some are more equal than others
...and some are arrogant.
spiesvsidiots Fuck yeah
I read the book at least once every year. I own English and Spanish editions of the book. And every time I read it, Boxer's death always brings tears to my eyes.
Don't... play... the scene of Boxer getting sold for slaughter >:(
I cri evrytim
T●T
i know right so sad he was my favorite
He comes back at the end of the movie, you see him walking with the other barn animals....yeah I know it's probably a mistake :P
I felt horrible for benjamin
No, that was Clover. You can tell by her smaller size and darker coat.
Random Person no no he's not slaughtered... The vet had just bought the van and hadn't painter over it yet. He died in the hospital...
I want to see a new adaptation of Animal Farm. It has to follow the book to a T.
did u mean zootopia?
+ChaoticMartian Zootopia is very, very different...
Charlene Alyssa Ingram I love the book but its not needed. We already get the idea.
That's not an adaptation, that's the original thing.
What movie ever follows a book to the T
I've been working in a bookstore for three months and I bought this book and I was shocked after reading Orwell's masterpiece.
Animal Farm (the animated version) is one of the first films I remember seeing. It was goddamn devastating.
Like watership down
Thank you so much for doing Animal Farm!
Could you do Top 10 Notes on 1984?
Bring it on!
Napoleon was not more intelligent than Snowball!
Mr Pickles Agreed Snowball was a better leader and Napoleon was a total looser
@@INDLIS yes, total coward he just use the dogs to scare other animals unlike snowball who fights directly to the farmers
@@justinpaulevangelista1099 sounds like trump.
@@jerryvan-hees7130 tes! Exactly just like our President here in the Philippines Duterte
@@jerryvan-hees7130 couldn't be further from the truth...
Napoleon is more astute, not more intelligent...
Martin Menendez He isnt smarter,HELL HE DIDNT EVEN COME UP WITH THE WINDMILL IDEA,the only reason he ultimately became leader was because he raised dogs to scare the other animals into submission along with getting rid of snowball who was actually loyal
Agreed.As soon as he started his actions,things went spiraling down
the most evil one
Srreetwise, and cunning, he did not invent the windmill afterall
Some of this is wrong.
Your basing your observations on a film adaptation and not the book.
Film adaptions that are propaganda and distort the meaning behind the book no less
@@mariguana7918 Adaptation is not photocopying
Zsombor Telek You’re right, but if the source material has an ideological message, you should change it “America good! Russia bad!”
I enjoyed the animated version and book, this was one of the biggest propaganda movies i ever watched , power corrupts
UPlayNetwork the pigs were corrupt before they had the power.
So how does a country curb the corruption of power?
realize it exists, and it can befall anyone regardless of how good you believe your intensions to be
this was basically the rise of soviet russia with farm animals
@@travis9190 by limit the power of goverments to what some might deem essential, law and order, infrastructure, protection of freedoms.
The always drunk man's motto: Four legs good, two legs bad!
Four legs good, two legs better!
The 1999 version was dumbed down compared to the 1954 version or book version
Reba Hashiri everything is being dumb down for the dumbing down of citizens.

The ending to this book pissed me off.
kinda the point
I thought it was a cool twist
CurtisAlfeld me too! like rage
How did it end?
Kelly Peart ------ SPOILER ALERT -----
As the rule of Napoleon was finally consolidated some animals look through the window of the farmer's house and discover that the pigs now wear clothes, walk upright and drink alcohol. They have become just as corrupt and arrogant as the humans were they replaced and they show that they have completely abandoned decency and the ideals of the revolution. (The animals paint the codex of the revolution on a wooden plate: 4 legs good, 2 legs bad; No alcohol; no sleeping in sheets)
This book is so great because it's accessible to all ages, I read this when I was like eight or younger and I understood it because of it's short length and the layer of Fantasy it has covering it's themes, a truly great book.
I tore up when Boxer was taken away the first time I read this.
I was forced to read rhis book at highschool and I am so happy they did
Dont for it anymore.... The Marxists have pulled their life spoiler alert....
While it may be a reference to the Soviet Union, it has frightening familiarity- it feels like this is the exact road the US is going down.
I think it is actually a universal story.
How do you see this correlation? The only fanatical power base in the US is the extreme right wing fascists of the Tea Party. Not sure how that has any similarities to Animal Farm or 1984 other than the end is a totalitarian regime. Our country is looking more like Spain in the 1930's, not the Soviet Union under Stalin.
Timothy House Changing the laws from "All animals are equal" to "All animals are equal, but some are more equal than others." This can be applied to many things; race, religion, class, etc... America prides itself in standing for equality but it stands for nothing but partisanship, fear-mongering, and brainwashing. Equality does not exist- the government still treats us all differently. The only difference between us and Animal Farm is that in AF they are at least honest about it.
In the beginning it was made law that no one was to enter the house of the two-legged let alone sleep there. Then the pigs were caught doing that exact thing later on.
Those in power and authority are constantly breaking their own laws- need I point out the most recent and obvious example? He who vows to never invade the privacy of innocent people is caught spying on them? Just to name one of course.
Animal Farm is an example of what will happen to us if we let the government bully us- trying to control our very thoughts and beliefs by telling us that all the horrible things we must do and endure is "for the good of this country"
Just to scratch the surface.
Ah, the naive assumption you ever had any privacy in the good ol' USA. The only real problem now is that people are aware of it. So, how "unpatriotic" are those people who spoke against the Patriot Act now. What president was it that said you were "with the terrorist" if you didn't like that law? If you think it is the current one, you need to go read up when the law was passed.
As far as equality in this country, that has always been one of our greatest myths. There has never been equality. The "We the People..." being referred to were white, land owning males. No one else was considered a "person" when this nation was founded. Well, that is unless you were needing to pad the number of electoral votes, then a slave was considered 3/5 of a person.
Even when those former slaves got to vote they were still not "equal" to everyone else and still aren't. But at least males of color were considered more of a person than women of ANY color. How possibly could a woman make any type of meaningful decision without a penis dangling between their legs. Women still aren't trusted to make their own decisions by those on the right or do you really think the argument over abortion really has anything to do with the supposed life of a few developing cells in that woman's uterus?
Those are just examples of how unequal this country has always been and we haven't even started to talk about the ever widening socio economic gap. If you aren't rich in this country you just don't matter.
So, no, the US has nothing in common with Animal Farm. In Animal Farm the lower and middle classes revolted against the rich "two legs". In the US the beasts of burden are quit content with believing all the crap fed to them. Our country is headed down the very dark corridor of fascism and there won't even be so much of a whimper from the people because they have been so brainwashed into thinking "socialism" is bad.
First of all, I never placed the blame completely on Obama's shoulders- I never liked the Patriot Act before when "Dubbya" was president either. It seems like every president has screwed us one way or the other, usually due to good intentions but we've all heard the old saying about that.
I DID say there is no such thing as equality- it pisses me off because America 'prides' itself in being so. When we give all rights to one group by taking them away from the other that's not equality. And why is it taking so long for homosexual couples to get married in the USA of all places? Why do we still see generic 'roles' of men and women in commercials? Why is it that only Cheerios has featured a family of various ethnic backgrounds- let alone why did it spark so much outrage and why did we allow those angry bigots to make headline news?
Animal Farm, as I've said before, is what America is gradually BECOMING while our leaders continuously make idiotic choices and the majority just take it like a bunch of helpless whores instead of standing up for the ideals that made this place so great. I'm an independent.I have a mind of my own. I don't follow leaders blindly because of the party they're associated with or because they happened to have done 'a few good things'. My concern has always been "What do you plan to do for our country? Are you gonna make things better or worse?" I think both presidents have failed on an epic scale- Dubs throwing us into a war no one wanted and Obama making criminals out of people who exercise their freedom of speech.
Socialism doesn't bother me, as long as it doesn't go too far. But God forbid capitalism or theocracy.
Anyone who did high school English knows this stuff.
***** huh, what did you do?
*****
read animal farm at the 9th grade and 1984 was during my junior year.
***** I went to an Australian school, we still read this. In fact, we read very little Australian literature.
Sadly, my high school english class didn't read Animal Farm, but we did read The Hobbit. :D
killer92173 that's weird, what english lessons could you teach about the hobbit?
Boxer has always and will still be my favorite animal he always was real not always naïve and was a strong worker
In the 1954 animated version, all characters had one voice: a guy called Maurice Denham. If i had written that film, i would have put a lot of famous actors of that age. I don't know everyone, but Napoleon (the evil pig) would've been voiced by Humphrey Bogart.
I read this in High School and it changed the way I looked at the world. Even if it was aimed at the Soviet Union the lessons about the evils of political power grabbing and not *blindly* trusting your political or religious leaders are universal and the real lesson of the book. After all how better to sum up the elitist "do as we say, not as we do" attitudes of some of our right and left wing leaders than with "four legs good, two legs better"
What about all the changes they made to their list of commandments?
all animals are equal, but some are more equal than others
Mina Haruna
This book was an absolute masterpiece.
My teacher said the 1950's animated version was secretly funded by a CIA proxy as a form of anti-Soviet propaganda. Not sure if it's true or not.
I don't know if it was funded by the CIA but it was a message saying that something that was meant to be good could turn ugly really fast.
Out of the two the 1954 film was my favorite. The adaption seemed less then faithful and lost a lot of the dark and even frightening moments with its live-action and terrible CGI work.
I love the 1954 film too
also his real name was "Eric Blair"
forgot to mention that guys...
One of the few novels that I actually enjoyed reading in high school
I had to read the book for school a few years ago. When Boxer got sent to slaughter it totally depressed me.
My english class just finished reading this book. Pretty good book.
I like Animal Farm, but I don't know why my high school forced us to read it. It's a great book, and people should read it, but I think Orwell would have been against people being forced against their will to read certain books. To make it worse, we had to read it during the summer, which is when students are supposed to have freedom.
Ahaha, that didn't work on your parents or teachers did it?
My recommendations are to listen to audio books while you do chores or excersize, animal farm is a book you can easily finish in a day.
You could afford to read a book. Then you'd know that the word exercise doesn't have a z in it.
Well you arent forced to read it. Just not reading it means you get no grade.
spinemelter2000 Typo obviously lol
i like how old major did a backflip and landed on his head
I read this book at least once a year, every year. Usually, in a single afternoon. I love it so much. Few books manage to be so relevant so many decades after its initial publication, but this novel withstands the test of time and is one for the ages.
I remember reading this book and watching the live action movie in high school. I liked it but thought it was pretty weird. I think I didn't really understand the relation the book had to real life situations yet. When I did though, my mind was blown. It was pretty amazing.
Honestly, when the pigs came out on two legs in chapter X I was getting serious horror movie vibes.
I'm glad I'm not the only one, when I read that passage I was seriously overcome with an existential dread.
Just fell in love with this story due to an adaptation by a band called Ice Nine Kills with their song The Nature of the Beast
Andy Serkis is making a movie of this. It should be awesome
I'm meant to read this over Christmas break, and I'm meant to have read it by Tuesday, I'm on chapter 2 this saved my life
It's not that long lol. Just get a Sparknotes of it or something.
For future reference, if you want to understand what happened in a chapter in a short amount of time, try reading the first and last page of each chapter
I should probably have also added that I love this book, and that it's well worth reading the whole thing to fully understand the extended metaphor for Russia, and not just the plot about windmill-building animals.
RenArts students read the twice a day.
I meant read the book twice a day
Lmao, this just helped me pass my English essay about Animal Farm
The animation, with the exception of its ending, was spot on with the book. Great Top 10!
When i started reading it, I really felt obligated too read it since its for school, but a really realized how well written and amazing this book is. “All animals are equal,but some are more equal than others” really stood out too me, how power hungry and manipulative people really are…
Where was this 5 months ago when we were reading this at school?
Watchmojo... maybe there's something YOU should know about Animal Farm... it's obvious that Napoleon is equal in intelligence, if not less intelligent, than Snowball, just as Stalin was to Trotsky, who had studied and took an infatuation in reading when he was in 2nd grade.
If anything Squealer was the intelligent part of Napoleon's reign, just as Vyacheslav Molotov was to Stalin.
You also failed to mention Boxers allegorical reference to the proletariat, or Squealers multiple allegorical meaning, of pravda and vyacheslav molotov, all having to do with propaganda. And you didn't even mention pilkington who represented the capitalists.
But I did learn something new from this, I had no idea Orwell wanted to be a writer when he was a kid, that's pretty interesting.
An interesting part (it can be called many things) of Animal Farm is that as Animalism gets destroyed more and more the Commandments change until it only becomes "All animal are equal, but some are more equal then others" and throughout it all even those who saw the original words go 'how could we forget it has always been so.'
Thank You! Finally I know what Animal Farm is and the allegory behind it! (I never got to read it at my old school because they couldn't afford it, wasn't part of the curriculum, or they didn't care. I don't know but thank you for explaining some of it. Thank you!
Might be just me but I always found some of the visuals and voice acting for the animals in the live action version a little over the top at some points.
Particularly that scene where the chickens were upset about giving up their eggs.
Watchmojo makes an intelligent/educational video it gets a small fraction of the view one of their stupid videos about deadpool or other pop culture themes gets...the sad state of humanity.
your comment is neither relevant or informative. bro.
Too bad it was neither intelligent nor educational.
If Orwell wanted to write a book about the Soviet Union, he would've wrote a book about the Soviet Union instead of depicting the figures of a state in revolution in an abstract and universal way.
Saying historic figure a) is animal b) is fucking retarded. The novel is meant to make you think about who these animals are right here and right now.
What happens in the novel happened before in France and Cuba and it is happening right now in every wealthy country.
Oh shut up. You can literally learn this in every English class.
Casey J "Every line of serious work that I have written since 1936 has been written, directly or indirectly, against totalitarianism and for democratic socialism, as I understand it."- George Orwell
Good thing you follow your educators so closely, who have been put into place by the same regime of pigs that tries to keep you a sheep.
Casey J Why would someone who says this, write a work depicting socialism as a negative thing? His intention was to show how shit totalitarian governments are and how revolutions tend to revolve back to the beginning, because the revolutions leaders tend to misuse their newfound powers no matter what kind of state they errect on the ashes of the old one.
One of the best books I've ever read. Thank you, George.
last night I cried when I first heard how this book was inspired. I....I just can't get over how powerful that allegory is.
2nd favourite book, 1st being 1984
Do 1984
I remember in ELA class that Mr. McClure made an expirement- the Barnyard expirement, and brought the aspects of the story to real life. It was silly, yet everyone got into it, making everything thrilling and horrifying.
it is my favorite book! i wish i was a filmmaker cause then i wanna make an new version of it
sally carrera then become one
1977 Pink Floyd "Animals" album can be considered an adaptation or interpretation of this masterpiece.
Animal Farm is one of my favorite books.
yeah it is a good book,mainly because its creative,and because the dystopian genre (if it is consider a genre) is my favorite genre
The fact that so few are seeing this story play out right now is mind blowing
Avian influenza. Bird flu is similar to swine flu, dog flu, horse flu and human flu 🤔🐰🐗🐷🙈🙉🙊// animal farm 🛒🎡📲🎥 is not about the soviet union /is about western societies🛩⛵🪂🚀 & how they behave/ citizens are treated like animals, conditioned at school to become obedient🐕🦺🦮👨🚒👨💼 workers & domesticated by main media propaganda to become compulsive🙄😫😣😲🤪🛒🛒🎁💋💄👒💎 shoppers. the rulers of the west have fail & as some say you can ignore reality 🎈however you cannot ignore the consequences of ignoring reality 😥. the cause is consciousness & reason, the rulers🤐🤑🤑🤑 have deprive the HUMAN 🥼🥼animals of the western farm of reason🤔 & consciousness👼, & the results is the reality you experience globally 😥.

Incredible book. A must read.
Pink Floyd's album Animals is pretty much inspired by Animal Farm
I am the donkey... Like the donkey... Just remain silent :(
Passive :(
that's how you get ur bestfriend killed
i love how the movie explained such a complex story in such an way that everybody understands
Boxer didn’t sacrifice himself at the battle. One of his lungs collapsed, after over exerting himself while working on the windmill
Have to study Animal Farm in school and this was really helpful so thanks!! :D
dont listen to the boxer gets hurt in the fight actually later on he just becomes sick and old and tired
CI Lacrosse Ah right okay. Thank you!
the pig does still sell him to a glue factory though
no this is wrong!! boxer worked himself to exhaustion.while reading the book i cried when he was betrayed! now that im grown and know what he represented just makes it hurt a lil more
I liked when the dog escaped and took her puppies down to the river side to raise them far away from the madness, I guess she would be considered a refugee. I believe it was at the end of the 1999 movie version, very touching scene.
This has got to be my favorite book of all time
you saved my ass for the test thnx
+Bacon Bishop AHHAAh i have a test tommorrow and im fucking watching this for some notes, how did it go?
Went well got an A-
Bacon Bishop Haha how were the questions.
+Danger Dolan basically the test asked about the major plot points and a few random questions like why did nepoleon got the milk all to himself
Bacon Bishop Ah ok thanks mate :P
kewl very helpful as im pretty sure we will read this book this year
I've never forgotten about animal farm since I've read it. Well done watch mojo.
OMG I've been studying this book for a year now and we done our final exam for it last week. YOU COULDN'T HAVE UPLOADED THIS SOONER MOJO?!?!?
What about Pink Floyd's Animals album being directly based off of this?
Can you do one on 1984 or they live?
I truly know now that Watch Mojo has a video about everything. I was just looking for the audiobook, lol.

I teach Animal Farm in my college English classes. This is one of the best introductory videos about the novel I have seen.
Your students are lucky. Have you seen watership down?
The song that goes "beasts of england, beasts of scottland, beasts of every land and chrine" has saying before it "It is like a blend of clemitine and la-cocaracha". in so that may be the Soviet anthum.
when school makes you read animal farm for a year through 1 chapter every month .....................................i hate it
cellophanezebra it's good shut up and get back to work
the fuck is your problem

oh okay :)
cellophanezebra A chapter a month?? holy shit where do you live and how old are you😂😂 Man we have to read a book every two weeks-month and analyze it from top to bottom:)).

Nope he was definitely Hitler cause he first makes an alliance and then he betrays Napoleon just like Hitler

Hitler never betrayed Stalin, Stalin was preparing to attack the battle weakened Europe. It was pretty much known by both leaders their truce was only putting off the eventual fight between them. Hitler's sincere hope was to achieve peace (many peace offers hidden from the British people by War Monger Winston Churchill ) or to win the war against France and Britain before it came to that.
My favorite book at High School. Probably the only novel we were assigned that I actually read in full (as well as enjoyed).
I remember reading the book as a kid. A lot of lessons to learn from that one.
