Plans are in the works for Godfather IV. It is bound to be another blockbuster hit,
movie producer Wilson says, because it will carry on the same cast of stars and will be
directed by Coppola, the same director for the earlier episodes.
What will be an ideal response?
Argument from analogy. Wilson argues that similar cast and director are features
that are common and relevant to concluding that the new movie will have the same
success as its predecessors. There is a relevant dissimilarity that casts some doubt on
the conclusion: each time a new episode is released it has a different audience,
namely, an audience that is aware of the previous episode or episodes. Thus, the
fourth has a different audience from the first three and it is possible that the market
for this type of movie has been saturated by the time the fourth is released.)
