Ah, yes..."let's debate them.  It will force them into the light, and everyone will see their opinions for what they are, and they'll grow into better people and the world will be lovely."

It's gone well so far, hasn't it?  People who complain about " leftist SJWs" taking over the world, we frequently see them change their minds just because someone took the trouble to debate them, don't we?

"Hollywood has very few stories up its sleeve and you could probably throw a few half-assed cliches together - superweapon, star-crossed lovers, galactic fugitives, disgraced officer's last chance for redemption, missing family member, The Chosen One, etc - and start a betting pool for which one Disney will make first"


The Seven Basic Plots are the basics of plot-writing.

Overcoming the Monster[edit]
The protagonist sets out to defeat an antagonistic force (often evil) [1] which threatens the protagonist and/or protagonist's homeland
(with tie fighters)

Rags to Riches[edit]
The poor protagonist acquires things such as power, wealth, and a mate, before losing it all and gaining it back upon growing as a person
(with wookies)

The Quest[edit]
The protagonist and some companions set out to acquire an important object or to get to a location, facing many obstacles and temptations along the way
(with light sabers)

Voyage and Return[edit]
The protagonist goes to a strange land and, after overcoming the threats it poses to him or her [2], returns with experience
(with darth vader)

Comedy[edit]
Light and humorous character with a happy or cheerful ending; a dramatic work in which the central motif is the triumph over adverse circumstance, resulting in a successful or happy conclusion
(with star destroyers)

Tragedy[edit]
The protagonist is a hero with one major character flaw or great mistake [3] which is ultimately their undoing. Their unfortunate end evokes pity at their folly and the fall of a fundamentally 'good' character
(with jar jar binks)

Rebirth[edit]
During the course of the story, an important event forces the main character to change their ways, often making them a better person
(with x-wings)

when I consider the demographics of youngsters in school that have an interest in comics.  There is a growing number of girls as opposed to boys

girls/women just read more in general

If Dredd was banking on being given a dunking rather than some other form of punishment, he's either a very shrewd judge of character or an incredibly fortunate one.

yeh bit of a stretch
all stories are but
wasnt worth long buildup

disappointed bill s
