great video, I just wanted to say - I don't think those are the reasons for Loki's behavior though. Odin kind of sucks, a pretty terrible father. He indulges in favoritism. He is pretty mean to Loki. He never makes him feel valued or loved. So what did Odin expect? The real reason Loki, unfortunately, sees the world this villain way is the lack of his father's love. That's all he ever wanted. He never wanted to rule the worlds, it was only a "symptom" of his true motivation. He thought if he ruled the world, he would get finally noticed and loved by his father, and could finally deserve his love. But love from a father shouldn't have to be deserved. Odin is the real villain in my opinion. Even at the end, Loki screams "it was all for you", and his awful dad either still doesn't get it, or refuses to show him his love. See, I think a normal father would've cried, in response to Loki, and said something like "Son, I am so sorry I have done this to you. I love you, I always did, I am so sorry." But Odin's response was awful. It made me go "ew" when I was watching Thor for the first time (and even more so on the second watch). So I think Loki is one of the greatest villains, specifically because his character expands far beyond the regular character arch - his arch is directly affected by Odin's character arch. Odin's character is terrible in my opinion - because he never grows, he doesn't change through the movie. He doesn't come to realizations he should have. What keeps Loki interesting - is that we can see and we are shown that he is actually a very loving character, very passionate and sensitive. He cares a lot. He just wants love and connection. And the only mother gave it to him. The whole film the hope is alive, that Odin will come to his senses and treats his son differently, then none of the awful things that happened later would have happened. Thor is really an adopted and unloved child's story. Very sad.

Yeah, Loki says to Odin "I could have done it, Father. For you. For all of us." He is still holding on at this point. Then Odin just says "No." or "No, Loki." One of those. And then Loki lets go. It isn't until that moment. I know we would not have gotten pretty much any of the MCU after that, but putting that aside I always say "You couldn't have waited five minutes to have this conversation, Odin?" Honestly, did you have to just say "No." right then? Let's pull them up first, maybe? Also, I think that it seems not to be discussed much the impact it had on Loki finding out he was a Frost Giant when his entire life he was taught to hate and fear them. Then to find out he is one of them? These creatures he was taught to hate and fear? Literally taught they were monsters? "Why? Because I-I-I-I'm the monster parents tell their children about at night?" I think it's unrealistic to think that would not take a toll.

When I was watching the first video I thought of Anakin Skywalker. The short version is that Anakin falls for Palpatine's lies, misreads what the Force is telling him (in my opinion it was actually warning him that the path he was taking would lead to Padme's fall, which it ultimately did along with himself), and causes a happy child to become history's greatest monster until his redemption years later.

If he'd never come to her, she would have never gotten pregnant, and would never have felt like she had to hide anything from George. The show was good, and I watched it through to the end, though I confess I liked Ross a lot less after that incident with Elizabeth, mostly because he never truly apologized to Demelza or seemed to acknowledge his grave error.

Would love thoughts on Harvey Dent’s negative character arc (specifically as portrayed in The Dark Knight). In light of this video and the comment she makes about it being impossible for someone to go right from positive to negative is clicking. The character has to be conflicted to go to negative. It’s subtle at first but Gothams DA exhibits some very dubious behavior way before he has the “excuse” of being driven to the dark side by grief. I’m still in the very beginning stages of learning the craft. If only I could see Christopher Nolan’s notes for how he crafted this story because there’s a lot going on in that movie. As self assigned homework, I think I will watch TDK and try to identify these aspects of his arc. Besides Loki and Anakin Skywalker, Harvey Dent in TDK (the way he’s written in that movie) is the first character to jump in my head for this type of character.

This is kind of a random observation but this journey of learning the craft of writing has changed the way I watch movies now. I’m looking for the plot structure and the beats or plot points now. Some are easier to see than others but I’m getting there. Now that I know some of the “formulas” that produce the movies (original screenplays) I’m shocked at just how LITERALLY the movies align with the concepts of the plot points! The Matrix is the clearest example I can think of at the moment. I won’t list out and spoil anything but one of the later beats occurs in a literal way in both The Matrix and Thor. I’ll never look at either movie the same way again. That’s not a bad thing and I actually feel a little less intimidated to write my own stories now without worrying about whether I’m sticking “too close” to a plot structure. Apparently, it’s okay to follow closely and I don’t have to worry about doing something different. I enjoyed The Matrix immensely and I liked Thor just fine. I really enjoyed Thor Ragnorak where we start to see the shift in Loki. And I enjoyed the first season of Loki as well. It’s a really interesting character.

Hey ! Unfortunately the only thing you'll have to do is keep on writing until you find your own writing style. Took me more than 6 years until i found the right balance between pantsing and planning. If you're anything like me you'll eventually switch from one technique to the other: 1 planning the world and the general story (know where you start and where you'll land without much details on the characters. More like: world building and identifying your characters), 2 outline the general structure of each chapter with the 3 arc structure (know where the destination and spot the highlights that will lead your character there) 3 then you'll switch to pantsing when actually in the writting process, using your previous work but allowing your characters to develop and eventually take the lead. That will serve as your first draft!

My favorite negative character arc is shown throughout the "Star Wars: Clone Wars" animated series - the downfall of Anakin Skywalker. Although I wasn't a big fan of the Star Wars movies Episodes 1, 2 & 3, Clone Wars the animated series takes place between Episodes 2 & 3, and is a much more compelling line up of stories and adventures I think are missing from the films. They show the amazing skills, power and heart of Anakin and his relationship with his padawan Ahsoka Tano, giving us greater insight to Anakin's internal conflict, along with his secret marriage to Padmé Amidala. Because the Jedi Counsel betrays Ahsoka, which causes her to be banished, Anakin loses faith in the Jedi order, and his decision to embrace the dark side in Episode 3 is all that more compelling. We understand why Anakin became Darth Vader, and I'm hard pressed to wonder if I would not have made the same choices he did, had I been in his shoes.

I feel bad for elizabeth. She wants to be a good person, bit is forced to side with the enemy to survive. With her new marriage, she may be falling in love with George, but she feels guilty because of how evil he is especially with her son. It leads to her morphine addiction. Honestly, i hate her affair with elizabeth. His wife did not deserve that all. No one does. Dimelza (sorry for the misspelling) is ross’s equal in every way. She has a connection to the miners and visits them and feeds them when the other wives don’t. They have an intellectual connection as well as passionate. They are both strong considering how their marriage survives after the death of their child and another affair where the partner was in love with someone else. This is nothing against Elizabeth, bit I do not believe she should have changed in the way the writers made her change.

A cast too large is sometimes only made of cons. It can slow down pacing and create too many complicated subplots, leaving the reader confused and less satisfied with the story. The only side characters you want to keep are the ones that directly impact the protagonist, meaning that if they have their own story and importance but don't intersect with or influence the protagonist at all, you're probably better off saving them for their own book and not having them in this one (or maybe even writing a sequel). If you're writing an epic fantasy, more characters can be okay, but typically it's better to combine whoever you can and keep the least amount of characters possible.

Does a World View story need an antagonist or can it exist within the protagonist?

One inconsistency that I see with the author’s timing of Elizabeth’s death: why does she want to deliver EARLY by taking Bella-Donna? If she was with Ross before her marriage to Warleggin, wouldn’t she want to deliver as LATE as possible to prove to Warleggin that the baby is his and not Ross’s? Reply if you have any insight to this.

Suppose Elizabeth was with Ross in January, and didn't marry Warleggin until February, one month later. Pregnancy usually lasts 9 months. If Elizabeth gives birth in October, this would be 9 months after Ross slept with her. For the child to belong to Warleggin, the baby would be born premature, at 8 months. I haven't seen the show, but I'm guessing that Elizabeth wants the next child to be premature to show that there is a pattern. If a woman had a child less than 9 months after she married, people would question whether the baby was premature or if perhaps the woman hadn't waited until marriage.

Now that I think about it, would loki’s character arc be better if he tried to reunite with his family and feel like he belongs there while feeling conflicted because of his love of thor. It might lead to less murder because he does not want to hurt either side. Either way, I will always love MCU’s version of this character.

Can you show to use this negative arc alongside with the actual story? I'm getting a little confused here, heh
