Summarizing the questionnaire
Horror- In this questionnaire people most liked jump scenes so the audience likes when something makes you jump. As a camera shot audience like subjective point of view because it makes it more real and horrors are normally less real than other genres, and you cannot see the antagonist/protagonist to keep audience in suspense. Also, we found that the protagonist and the antagonist do not have any relation makes it more interesting as they do not know each other and they will find things about each other. The antagonist should extremely clever as his power as it makes it more human t have this kind of power and it does not make the antagonist so much more powerful than the protagonist. The protagonist should be school/college student because the protagonist seems weak and as the people who were doing are questionnaire were teenagers they will want to see someone who is in their age rather than someone who is much older.
Romantic comedy has to have a predictable plot/story line. E.G.Two people, who are not supposed to be together, they fall in love, they normally hate each other or are far from each other.
Simple characters with Simple conflicts/fights so very easy resolution. there is normally a time where a character messes up but they come back to each other in the end. Must have a happy ending! you do not generally see an unhappy ending which would change the whole course of romantic comedies, all fairy tales have happy endings.
Usually characters who have completely different views/lifestyles (one is usually very privileged where as the other is usually very sympathetic or seen as the underdog figure from a ‘basic’ background. Initial meeting usually occurs within the first 10-20 minutes of the film and is used as a way of introducing the main characters. Main characters have a friend, which usually provides guidance and moral support and can even protect the main character in some cases. The friend is usually a work colleague, a sibling/relative or a close friend (someone who they have known for some time).
Thriller movie has to: Create tension and excitement for the audience. Normally it takes place in a more exotic place such as foreign countries/cities.
Protagonists usually seen as ‘hard men’ who look for danger but could be ordinary people who find themselves within danger. Protagonist usually finds enemies plans and finds a way too defeat them, often saving there own lives and other lives in the process, generally the hero does not die.
Antagonists usually appear cleverer (Lex Luthor/ John Doe from 'Seven')/stronger than the Protagonist. the protagonist needs to fell less powerful than the antagonist so that the protagonist has to find him self and once he over comes him self he will defeat the antagonist.
