You will begin the first draft of your essay on how ideas and worlds have been expanded, altered, and built upon over generations. Pick a current film, television series, or game and look to the past to discover its roots.
Even though the current iteration is not a direct continuation of the previous works and may not involve any of the original creators, a spiritual successor is a continuation of the atmosphere, mood, style, or overall feeling of the franchise it references. Please write 3-4 pages, double-spaced in 12pt Arial. Include quotes, citations and images as needed to support your arguments.
