The script of Equalizer3 will appeal to 1.13-1.39% of the population


 Any story is the quest to fulfil a human desire. We have identified universal quests for every human desire. These universal quests reveal the invisible plot structure of stories. An analysis of Blockbuster, Hit & Flop plots led to the discovery of Mythosis Code. The Code identifies the ideal Blockbuster plot structure for a story from its script. We use the ideal plot structure to estimate and unlock a story’s Blockbuster potential.
 
  • All Blockbusters have at least 3 universal quests. The Equalizer3 has just 2 universal quests of Honour and Power.
  • In Blockbusters, each universal quest is mirrored by ONLY ONE character. The Equalizer3 characters uniquely mirror ONE universal quest. McCall – Honour & Vincent – Power. Collins doesn’t have a quest.
  • Every Blockbuster character mirrors at least 35% of the universal quest. McCall’s character borrows 24% & Vincent’s character borrows 22% from their respective universal quests. Both characters borrow below the threshold of 35%.
  • Blockbusters interweave different quests to create a tight plot structure. Interweaving occurs when events of 2 quests occur simultaneously in the story. Blockbusters have a quest interweaving threshold of 0.5. The Equalizer3’s quest interweaving is 0.33 and below the level of Blockbusters. Here is an example of the interweaving of McCall’s & Vincent’s quest.
Equalizer3’s script interweaves the mythological tales of Hanuman & Duryodhan

  • Blockbusters have a script score of at least 0.64 whereas The Equalizer3’s script score is 0.04. Based on the script score we estimate that the movie will appeal to 1.13-1.39% of the population.
The plot structure of Equalizer3 has NO dominant universal quest unlike Blockbusters which have at least 3.

 
93% events in Equalizer3 are borrowed from 2 mythological tales

 
At Mythosis, we have identified 32 mythological tales. Each mythological tale uniquely represents a human quest to fulfil a desire. These tales are the super set of thousands of tales across cultures.
We have codified the events of each mythological tale. Every tale has 5 major arcs. Each arc has a sequence of events. These events culminate into a major event. Here is the mapping of each character’s quest to the major events in their respective mythological tale.
 

Quest 1: McCall mirrors 24% of Hanuman’ quest for Honour (is below threshold of 35%)


McCall’s desire for Honour stems from his need to be loyal to a clan or order. The tale of Hanuman from Hindu mythology is the universal quest for Honour.

In Equalizer3, McCall borrows from the Hindu mythological tale of Hanuman


Quest 2: Vincent mirrors 22% of Duryodhan’s quest for Power (is below threshold of 35%)


Vincent’s desire for Power stems from her need to dominate others. The tale of Duryodhan from Hindu mythology is the universal quest for Power.

In Equalizer3, Vincent borrows from the Hindu mythological tale of Duryodhan
