This will be a lot easier if you've seen the excellent Dawn of the Dead (2004) and remember the character growth of CJ.
I'm writing an action/sci-fi romp that will either have a high comedy factor (Ghostbusters) or be out-and-out comedy (Hot Tub Time Machine) and my plan is for one character to grow from being a selfish prick to sacrificing his guaranteed safety, right at the death, in order to ensure that everyone else survives.
My question is, do you think this is too much pathos for a light-hearted Aliens-ish affair? I'm writing it for a '15' rating in the UK which is 'R' in the USA.
