Well it's like most books, really. Apparently the "8 plots" thing is universal.
Read something lke Victoria Holt (yep, standard clicheed syrup-in-a-book-cover) and you'll find they're all made by the same recipe. The ingredients may vary but the main dish stays the same. A Happily-ever-after story. As with most of Hallmark's movies (and yea, We're unfortunate to have that channel even in Denmark, Europe)
The thing is: Just like with the Tele Tubbies, who made repititions into an artform (of you can mention "artform" and "tele tubbies" in the same sentence at all) - people loves to see the well-known things. Most people actually are very much creatures of habit. If they like one kind of movie, they'll love every other movie that reminds them of their "first love"
Personally, I'm a Tim Burton fan. His movies are very different, and yet very much alike, for one thing they almost always feature Johnny Depp and have music made by Danny Elfman. Whatever else happens, those are (almost) like universal constants.

You just can't put the words "Poserites" and "happy" in the same sentence - didn't you know that? LaurieA
