Fiction inspired by real experiences.

This year you've got three or four major ones that are going to make a lot of money, but next year it's going to get crazy. You've got the sequel to The Dark Knight, which will make a billion dollars; and there's a brilliant team behind this Spider-Man reboot, that'll be colossal; and you've got The Avengers movie, which looks like it'll be the biggest of the lot.
