Subscribe Star tiers are listed as movie genres. Drama typically involves the story of a conflict and it's resolution. Drama is a base, underlying layer of movie genres and is often combined with other genres to create subcatagories such as Rom-Dram's or Dram-adies. In the broadest sense, all movies that involve fictional stories are some form of Drama or another.

Romance, as a genere, involves stories with central themes that reinforce our beliefs about love. The story typically revolves around characters falling in ond out of love. Remember, nothing is impossible because love conquers all.

Action dramas tend to be visceral with dynamic fight scenes, extensive chase scenes, and heart-racing stunts correlated with dramatic story and character arcs. The hero is nearly always sharp-witted, quick on their feet, and able to improvise mentally and physically.

In a thriller, the protagonist is often an unwitting hero reluctantly drawn into the story and must do battle with an epic villain to save the lives of innocent victims; the hero inevitably finds himself deeply involved in a situation involving insane criminals with a very dark past, who will threaten, double-cross, and kill anyone who stands in their way.

According to Eric R. Williams, the hallmark of fantasy drama films is "a sense of wonderment, typically played out in a visually intense world inhabited by mythic creatures, magic or superhuman characters. Props and costumes within these films often belie a sense of mythology and folklore – whether ancient, futuristic, or other-worldly. The costumes, as well as the exotic world, reflect the personal, inner struggles that the hero faces in the story." (The screenwriters taxonomy : a roadmap to collaborative storytelling)

The science fiction is often the story of a protagonist facing something "unknown" that has the potential to change the future of humanity; this unknown may be represented by a villain with incomprehensible powers, a creature we do not understand, or a scientific scenario that threatens to change the world; the science fiction story forces the audience to consider the nature of human beings, the confines of time or space or the concepts of human existence in general.
