In this episode we explore the Dramatica theory of story and how its ability to predict the intuition of a writer could possibly be the sole remaining piece of magic left on the planet. We then turn our attention to the latest Star Trek movie and wonder why they didn't use Dramatica to construct an emotionally fulfilling narrative.
Also. Epic music!
