Most of my fiction posts since I joined have been the Invasion of Solari saga which was set in between Star Wars episodes 4 and 5 but features characters that do not appear in the movie like Jedi Jens Tsudari and the made-up Planet Solari, and characters who are in the films eg Darth Vader and the classic rebels vs empire scenario.

Music inspires my poetry. After all, lyrics of songs are just poetry put to music.

I think it's important not to just write fanfiction and stuff based on films to show writing versatility, imagination and creativity. It's great to be inspired but make sure you're not just copying other ideas without original input like new characters

FRUITS BASKET!!

Or Furuba, I guess.

God. That television show (anime) makes me cry almost every episode.

It explores life in a new, gentle way with memorable characters, heartwrenching lifestyles, and pain in a whole new perspective.

[Haha. My extravagant summary]

Watch it.

On www.fruits-basket.com

It's hilarious.

I am largely influenced by action/thriller movies like Mission impossible or the bourne trilogy.

Movies do a bit, but the real thing is music. One show maybe, but music big time.

Definitely, movies like A Walk To Remember or She's All That inspire my romance stories.

Music also inspires me. Especially songs like How To Save A Life.

There are a few movies that inspire me, but on a whole, no.

I guess the IDEA of a good story (whether told via TV, Movie or whatever else) inspires me, but rarely the actual story.

TV and movies don't really inspire me. Unless they're fantasy movies like Dragonheart or Lord of the Rings. Those really give me ideas. :D Yay for LOTR movies!!!!
