So my reaction to the start of the narrative is that It has a good start to it by showing us what each and every animal that they have in the zoo. Also is that they describe how they got the zoo started and what you need to think about and how.
Why does the little boy gets taken away from feeding the tiger?

that he should not have been in the zoo because he could have gotten killed by the tiger and then he would have to got the chances to do what he is doing now and his dad comes and saves him from getting killed by the tiger and then they take and put a goat in front of the bars so he can see what the tiger would have dont to him if it would have tried to get his hand .

Pi is not someone who just follows how everyone believes. He chooses his own religions and more than one. Even though other people don't believe how his religion is he still does it. He believes that you can believe in more than one religion. He also does whatever it takes to feel accomplished like when he learned all the numbers in pi. Why and how did he start to believe that you can believe in more than one relgion

Pi seems already like a risk-taker, he likes to try new things and learn about them. He has very many interests and the main one is religion. With his father not wanting him to learn different religions and his mother supporting him, he ends up doing it anyway because he has at least one person teaching him the ways and letting him be free.
I wonder where his curiousness will take him.

Well one thing is that they are first meeting inside his house. Then he starts talking about how he got his name. Next was they leave and they continue the story. The kid wants to feed the tiger by himself and be apart of every religion. But who knows what will happen next.
Why are we rewatching the movie from this far back?

My thoughts on it are so far amazing I enjoy watching this movie so much and watching the story of Richard parker their tiger that had his name screwed up in the document because of a simple name change like that changed the tiger's name and where did it come from.

My reaction to the narrative is that I like the movie and how it can explain tell us a different point of few of other people like Pi’s father. I think what he said kind makes sense and I agree with some parts no all of them thought. As I can see in the narrative Pi’s dad is an atheist because of what happened to him and when God wasn’t there when he needed him.

The movie is one of my favorites it is about a Hindu boy that finds his way through christ even though his family doesn't agree with his decision.He got his name from a swimming pool and the other kids at the school made fun of him.When he reached a certain age he got up in class and explained his name and what it means, It means PI = 3.14.

Why risk your life to feed the tiger?

Write fifty or more words of my reaction to the start of the narrative.

My reaction is that the narrative is interesting. The reason it is interesting is that Pi will start to explain things to the man then go to a different subject and then the man will remind him of what he was talking about. Another reason it is interesting is that Pi had chosen many religions to follow but never just chooses one.

My question is what led him to choose to follow many religions if his family and others around him never taught or showed him that.

My reaction to the narrative of the movie is that why is pie try to have 3 religious should he just chose one cause like his dad said if you choose 3 religious then it like not believing in no religious I like how the movie shows why he wants to have 3 religious

I like how they start the movie by having the character tell his story as a man about his childhood. The film does a good job of getting a lot of detail but they don't overwhelm you with information. I like how it shows scenes of the story instead of him just telling it.

My reaction to the life of pi is that it is beautiful and it gives you a different understanding of the world it puts you in someone else’s shoes and you the see the world from their eyes and their perspectives. It’s great for younger people because it can show a different way of life and you will find out that there are more religions in the world than you might think of at a young age. My question is when pi tried feeding the tiger, how old was the tiger because the expression looked like he knew his surroundings?

I think this is a good movie so far. My reaction to this movie is that it is interesting how they do things where they live and how they live. I like where it showed all the animals at the beginning of the movie. I like the part where it shows how they grow things and I like the part where Pi tries to feed the tiger food. I like how they show Pi telling the story to an author. I like that part where Pi says you choose what you want to believe.

My reaction so far for the beginning of the narrative “Life of Pi” is that it is going to show us/tell us a lot about Pi and what he as learned thought his life. Pi had a unique life and has had many different types of experiences that has taught him a lot.
I wonder why they chose Canada to move to the zoo too.

My reaction to the narrative on how much of the part we have seen the movie is that he had a really strong though and energy towards what he sees. He has a strong faith in God that he will help him with what he is doing. It is also a good movie as a starting part and I like how Pi is independent and he doesn't let anything control him and also his feelings.

He shouldn’t have been in the zoo because it is very dangerous. I think that when he got stuck on a boat with those animals and them popping out of nowhere didn’t help because that put him at risk. I couldn't imagine how hard it was to see that one animal eats the others.
