Outline
I) Introduction:
a) Through out history people’s obsession with disaster exploits affected families for their own entertainment and gain. After major disasters occur many movies are made and these movies soon become apart of history and this is what people remember. In these films the major disasters are down played while there are smaller fictional sections that become the main focus in the story. Therefore undermining the importance of the event that actually occurred.
b) I have a few things I would like to research and discuss. One would be the way movie undermine the importance of a major disaster by creating a smaller fictional section making them a focal parts of the movies. Another would be writers connection with the event; do they have any or is it just because they want to make a good movie that make profit? The last two are how do they affect the families and what are the pros and cons between movies and documentaries
c) I will prove these arguments by researching different types of movies made with major disasters and compare and contrast how they are portrayed. Two examples of movies would be
Ø Pearl Harbor
Ø World Trade Center
II) Body:
a) Discussing in dept my first argument of movies undermining the importance of the event with fictional sections
b) My second; do writers have connections to the events or are they using the peoples emotions to get a profit.
c) The effect movies have on people either w connections or not
d) Documentaries and movies
III) Conclusion:
Come up with an answer on why people are so obsessed with movies and disaster

Generally the right idea, definitely. Still, much remains for you to work out--what will your evidence be for your various points? What texts, what passages will you use to make those points? Better if you work more on this outline, or at least keep the fact that it has significant gaps in mind, and don't let those gaps appear in the final paper.
