Just wanted to second dpg up there -- I always thought that we watch movies to ESCAPE real life... or, maybe more to the point, we want to experience the extremes that real life has to offer, but in the safe environment of a theater/ lounge room or wherever, in order to learn important but dangerous life lessons through a protagonist's catharsis... If not for those lofty purposes, then at least just to escape real life. If I want real life I'll interact with other people in the real world, or I'll watch a documentary.

Movies should give us an emotionally rich and condensed versions of real life... That's why I pay $ to see them -- I don't want to pay for real life when it comes free, knocking on my bloody door at 6:30 am everyday and doesn't leave until I close my eyes at some point, usually late in the PM that night...

...what if the writer is attempting to create a story where nothing much happens...more of a reflection of the real word.

The real world?.. The real f**king world. First of all, you write a screenplay without conflict or crisis, you'll bore your audience to tears...and why the f**k are you wasting my two precious hours with your movie? I don't have any use for it! I don't have any bloody use for it!

(From the movie Adaptation when the main character attends a seminar by the famous screenwriting guru, Robert McKee.)

just so you know when i was thinking about this idea it is supposed to be like real life so there is no real hook or urgency just like everyday life.
