The ending of The Raiders of the Lost Ark is brutal in its depiction of evil toying with what it doesn't understand, respect, and value. Spielberg's ability to step through the processes of the scene, the ceremony, and then the slaughter of the bad guys is unflinching and pulls no punches.

Thanks to all who've left reviews. A shout out to those who did and I knew who you are. (Some left reviews and I'm not sure if I know who they are.

The cadence and voice of Daniel Plainview and Hans Landa. Their demeanors, their awkwardness. All of these aspects influenced a character in Mirov.

Does your story have a "MacGuffin"? If not, you probably ought to consider adding one. It's more than just a plot device. Don't dismiss it as a contrivance.

Robocop's classic scene ED-209 vs Kenny scene influenced me more than anything else in my entire creative career. I even wrote a whole article about there right here: https://www.mirov.com/post/an-author-s-introduction-to-himself-and-his-story The power of the big droid vs this little yuppie who didn't deserve any of this, taking place in a boring, corporate board room. It is just the perfect blend pre-teen boy daydreams mixed with violence suited for adults. Perfection and I wanted to make a whole book that captured that over and over again. I used Robocop footage for educational purposes.

Star Trek II The Wrath of Khan is one of my favorite movies of all time and my favorite scene in the film is the first clash between Kirk and Khan. The timing and pacing are perfect and the flip from despair to getting out of a fix is executed to precision. I wanted to create a book that captured this type of moment over and over again. Hopefully I did so with Mirov. I used Star Trek II footage for educational purposes.

Conflict is story. Whether internal, external, humanity vs. nature, good guy vs. bad guy, it doesn't matter. Without conflict, you have no story. This applies to comedy, drama, horror, scifi, every genre. The reader/viewer should dread what is to come. They should feel uneasy about the upcoming fight, upcoming battle, upcoming ball game, upcoming dance contest. When your audience feels a sense of dread, you have them hooked and your story has a chance to succeed. Learn to craft your novel, screenplay, or story. Is your story clear? Does it make sense?

Sidekicks give your audience an "in" to the world of your story. Either giving your protagonist someone to bounce questions off of or to give answers to. Whether it be information about that universe, location, or emotional insight, having someone to bounce off of gives your story more depth than you'd be able to conceive without it.

Bad guys can make or break your story. The better the villain, the better the movie, book, video game, comic, you name it. They have to have clear desires and have relatable--yet twisted--goals.
