Remember: “Categorizing a movie indirectly assists in shaping the characters and the story of the movie. The shaping determines the plot and best setting.” - In other words, genre movies. This action makes it easier for the viewer to discover what they want to see. Allowing a movie to be put into a particular genre or category does not diminish the quality of the movie by assuming that if it can be put into a genre, the movie is boring and lacks one’s work and creativity.
The same goes for ideas, as Industrial Scripts claims in their article “Writing the Perfect Controlling Idea for Film and TV”; that everything original will be appreciated.
