A year ago I had some
fun with a little project of mine concerning movies as rollercoaster (link). And to tell you the truth: I really enjoyed the project; just me
having some silly fun.
So, as I´ve promised
myself in another post (which has the parts: link) here are three new ´movies as roller coasters´.
I'll repeat the rules here:
The low rise: Tension is build upon but it doesn’t require a ‘pay-off’.
The low rise and drop: Something is bound to happen (tension).
It happens! And then things go back to
normal – the ‘boo’-moment.
The high rise: Something very important is going to
happen (tension builds).
The high rise and drop: Something very important is
going to happen – and then it happens.
The sudden drop: Something unexpected happens.
The sudden drop and rise: Something (unexpected) happens
that causes the story to take on tension.
The rise and straight drop: The hero knows what is about
to happen. He prepares himself to face the consequences.
The tunnel: The storylines that need to be discarded/ are
shrouded in mystery (before the climax).
The looping: The lesser version of ‘the twist’: the world is
put upside down.
The double looping: The world is put upside down
–and just when you think you got away with it it bites
you in the buttocks.
The twist/corkscrew: Everything you learned in the movie so
far is turned on its head.
The turn: A change in the story.
