kelsey's Blockbuster

Blank Page. 

A woman ( late twenties), a few years after waking up from a coma, and having no memory of her life after she finished college, has her flat is trashed while at work, after realizing that nothing is missing, she knows it wasnt a robbery. soon after she believes she is being stalked, when the police wont help she takes matters into her own hands, maybe unlocking things about her true self in the meantime. - government conspiracy 

Susan: 27, trying to live a normal life after her accident. she works in a poorly paid job and lives in a small flat. while on her mission to find out who her stalker is she comes across a man who works for the pentagon. 

The Bourne Series - The Bourne Identity, The Bourne supremacy, The Bourne Ultimatum, The Bourne Legacy 

1-Blockbusters have very simple story lines that are easy to understand and have universal appeal. 

The bourne series focuses on one man,Jason Bourne (Matt Damon), trying to find out who he is and what he is. The series is about one mans journey of discovery and effort to stay alive and protect him self and his lover. In the last movie we look at at different character, Aarron Cross (Jeremy Renner) who is on the same path as Jason Bourne and we look at the first part of his journey. 

2-Blockbusters are populated by characters who are very easy to understand. 

The character of Jason Bourne is a confused man who doesn't know he true identity, in the first film, and is a man with little compassion, however he was deeply in love with his girlfriend Marie Kerutz (Franka Potenet), who dies in the second film, after her death he becomes full of hatred to the people who made him who he is.He just wants revenge. Though the character has a slightly complex psychological condition, amnesia, he his still easy to understand and the condition is easy to see. 

3-Blockbusters are marketed just on their 'look'.  

The films are full of guns, fast cars, explosions and near death experiences, 

4-Blockbusters become a brand.
