Science Fact or Cinematic Fiction outline

This is probably less of a outline and more of a rough idea as to what I'm thinking of for my second term paper

1.  Intro: introduce Movies, and thesis, and law which is kept intact or broken, and for all intense and purposes I'm thinking Gravity and Inertia

2.  First move: Event Horizen
    Sci Fi horror film in which a ship designed to create and travel through blackholes disappears and returns ten years later abandoned and full of mystery, except for the overly frozen corpse of the ships captain which falls to the ground and shatters when gravity is restored to the ship.

3.  Second Movie or two: Pirates of the Caribbean Curse of the Black Pearl and At World's End.
    In a scene in pirates of the Caribbean Curse of the black Pearl Jack and Will covertly steal a small boat and flip it upside down and use it to travel underwater so they don't drown while making way to steal a larger boat as a diversion to steal a different boat.
    In At World's End there's a scene where Jack throws a rope over a ships sail and ties it to a cannon and fires the cannon and uses the force of the recoil and pull him off the ship, fling him into the air and land safely on the black pearl.
   Later in AT World's End Jack engages Davy Jones in a sword fight while both of them are balancing on top of a sail arm.

4.  Third movie, or movies: IronMan
     In the Iron Man movies Tony Stark in the Iron Man suit takes a lot of big hits and a lot of long falls. As well as accidents from when he's testing his designs for the the armor.  And no matter how bad the hit, he always walks away unscathed and uninjured.

5.  Fourth Film: Sherlock Holmes
In one of the early scenes during the main invenstigation, sherlock and watson come under attack 3 henchman and sherlock finds a odd device that conducts electricity and uses to shock one of the henchmen a few times, throwing him back onto the ground at high speed.

Conclusion: Restate opening, thesis and close paper with final thoughts.

  1. You only need three movies; it's OK to do four but I'd rather you pick the best three and focus on those. My main criticism is that your intro and conclusions need to be fleshed out so that the former is engaging and the latter is satisfying.
