Popular Cinemas
These are the most popular movies of 2014. Most of them
are of thriller genre, however none of them have the
same type of storyline or sub-genre as our opening
sequence. Our sub-genres are not very popular, I have not
found many in the top 100 that I looked. The main
popular genres are sci fi, adventure and action. Our movie
will have a lot of action but the main genre is disaster.
This genre has died down, it used to be popular but if we
work hard enough we may be able to bring it back. We
have a very good advantage that could make it work. We
have the recent outbreak of the Ebola disease, we could
use this fear of the public to draw them in. People will be
attracted to the storyline as it will be based off something
real. The very popular film 2012 used the same
technique. The producers of the film used the public fear
of the world ending and created a film that would show
the public what may happen. We hope that we could do
the same thing here.

As the Reading Film Theatre

Another advantage is that
there thrillers are popular in
this theatre and will allow
our film to fit in.
