- The Empire Strikes Back, besides one of the greatest plot twist to ever be written the character development is so fantastic especially in the astroid field when the only main thing that is happening between the characters is dialogue you see how clearly defined all the characters are. Also at the end of A New Hope Han Solo was a hero but at heart he was a smugger his wallet still controlled his heart though by the end of the film you can see a sow gradual change in his insides.
- Breaking Bad now yes obviously this is not a film though this is some of the greatest writing of the decade. The characters have al vert clear motivation, their is a defiant arc in the characters in fact the whole show is about Walt's evolution from a family man to a kingpin in the under ground drug world.
- The Matrix, now yes the movies affects don't hold up at all and lets not talk about anything after this one film that the Wachoski's have done since then. Though if you need to see examples of Save The Cat on screen then just in a book the Matrix is a perfect example of the 3 act structure and how to have ambivalent characters done right. Also if this movie can inspire so many films after it (Equilibrium, Batman Begins, gotta love Christen Bale) I think that their has to be somethings great about it, though I do see how it is overrated.
- And of course it is impossible yo not mention The Godfather this film is just a classic masterpiece that just about everyone has seen. This film has just such memorable characters that aren't really even archetypes they are their own characters that people have been trying to master ever since it came out though none has ever truly been the same. This just nothing more to say then if you haven't seen this film why aren't you.
- The Wizard OF OZ this is just another timeless masterpiece, for many including myself this is one the first films that many people have seen and for 76 years this film has inspired people to make films and use their imagination.
Well thats all for today,
