I crave those moments in movies where the battle that has been building the whole time is finally happening and the main character just saw something traumatic and is holding their friend/partner/ally in their arms as they die and then the MC looks up and just SEES. They have their helmet off and their eyes up slowly looking around at animals and horses running and foes and friends alike falling into fire and ash or merely lying there already gone. The passion and thirty-second fear filled teary eyes full of terror and hatred. When All Seems Lost tm and they cannot see a way into happiness and all the audience hears is the best score on the soundtrack and slow breathing. Moments like when Éowyn loses her father and when Neytiri falls. Those moments in a hero's journey make you finally feel that maybe the happy ending is not coming before the backup arrives. Those moments in cinema that give goosebumps and make the watcher think of all the things they could do to change the scene. Those moments make FF writers turn on their PC and write another chapter because they need to get to it. I crave those. Not a sappy romance or another Hallmark ABC movie. I crave passion and poetry that bring tears every time they play
