For example , we looked at it like a Western or a fairy tale . What are the elements that you ' re going to see that makes it this genre , this specific genre ? And clearly , in a Western , you ' re going to have the dusty main street , the saloon . You ' re going to have cowboys . You ' re going to have the bad guy , who ' s probably dressed in black . You ' re probably going to have a castle , and a prince and a princess , if you ' re looking at a fairy tale .
