Task 2

List of genre;
Eight films that have more than one genre;
1. star wars- sci-fi and western
2. shaun of the dead - horror and comedy
3. dead snow - horror and comedy
4. tropic thunder - action and comedy
5. The outpost - horror and war
6. grease - dance and action
7. taken - horror and action
8. star trek - horror and sci-fi

Why might Producers and audiences like hybrid films?
Producers will like to have hybrid films because it will attract a larger audience. If they are hybrid they could attract horror/comedy/war/sci-fi etc and another genre of film.
Audiences will like hybrid films if it relates to a genre they like. For example if they like horror and war films they are more likely to go see a film that includes both genres.

some genres have subgenres within them. Can you think of any examples of possible sub-genres?
rom-com which is romance and the comedy genres mixed in. This has been recently possible with films like Forgetting sarah marshall and other box office sensation my big fat greek weddings. This attracts males and females with the romance for the women and comedy for the men.
