Shouldn’t the goal of the lead character be, stopping the villain?
I mean the lead can search for the meaning of life after he stops the villain, but right now the immediate threat is the bad guy who’s forcing the world into darkness.
Or in other words, what must the lead character do to stop the antagonist?
?
As Richiev said.? The logline confuses the objective goal with the subjective need.? Loglines are about objective goals, not subjective needs.? The character’s subjective need may be to come to terms with his own inner duality before he can achieve his objective goal (per the standard formulation of the relationship between the subjective need and the objective goal) but his objective goal is… well, what?
I agree with the previews commenters about subjective and objective.
Here are some more notes:
Isn’t this villain identical to Marvel’s Electro?
Electric superpowers? Are they the same with the villain’s? I kind of need more information.
Whether humanity?without electricity?would turn back to the Dark Ages or to something else is an interesting debate. I wouldn’t assume that it necessarily would. Technology would crumble in a large scale, but I believe there is a lot more to civilization than electric power.
I guess what everyone is wondering is whether the hero?s search for balance is the central conflict of the story, or is it defeating the villain? I?d honestly enjoy either story, but it could be clearer.
