Intertextuality
Intertextuality is when films have references to another film in the past, The film's that I have Chosen are: Olympus had fallen, and white house down.
The two films have nearly exactly the same plot, That the Terrorists are attacking the White house, The two films has similar plots, the main character ends up saving the day and killing all of the terrorists, and him rushing to the top of the White house to stop the U.S government from bombing it, The references in the films are throughout, as if White house down was a tribute to Olympus has fallen they exactly have the same plot, while the main character is touring the White house, there is instant terrorist attack, The protagonist has excellent military training and they go ahead to try and protect the president, in the films there are different actors but they play the same role, The president needs to be saved and protected, The main character is trying to save the white house and obviously kill the terrorists. There are also side characters which help in the film, such as like as sidekick in both films to help guide the character around the building as it is a big place and move them around safely so that they can have a chance of saving them. Also in both films the President is seemed to be dead, this means that a vice-president is placed in charge, However in White House Down, the 'new' president turns out to be a traitor, where as in Olympus has fallen the 'new' president actually helps protect the White house. The Both films involve the military coming into intercept and being shot down by the terrorists, involving a shootout on the outside garden of the White house. The Films were both released in 2013.
