Of Genre

Writer here, write now is posting an interesting series of posts on Genres.

For some reason, it still makes me want to run out and buy Save the Cat. I tend to mish-mash my genres together, which is why a couple of my spec plans are stalling. I have two movie ideas that both started out as a serious exercise in both genres (horror and science fiction), but since then, I’ve actually wanted to make them more tongue in cheek. All you need to do is look at my DVD collection to see that I don’t often do serious: Galaxy quest, Tank Girl, 5th Element, Batman Returns, Spaced Invaders, Johny Mnenomic - not to mention that I’d follow Joss Whedon around like a osmotic sponge puppy if I could. Farscape has ruined me. I want laughs amid my pain, darn it!
