Vote for the Task of the Year 2020

It's 2020, which means it's time to decide on our next Task of the Year theme!

Hey everyone! Ringing in the new year, and ringing in a New Official Task of the Year! Normally, only people who have completed December's Task of the Month can vote on the Task of the Year, but it seems like the end of the year has snuck up on us almost without warning, No one has completed any of them, you know?
So I'm opening up the voting to everyone so we get a good selection of tasks.
Below are the suggestions we've accumulated over the past few years. This is not an exhaustive list if you want to suggest your own tasks, feel free to add them to this post, and I'll add them to the list (suggestions should be one coherent "theme", with 6-7 tasks under that theme. Each task should take a significant amount of dream stability/control to accomplish).

Here are the current options:

Spoiler for The Hook Theme: (the event that makes your story exciting) 9sk:

En media res: start your dream off by saying, “how did it come to be this way” or even “I bet you’re wondering how I ended up in this situation”, then explain how it occurred!

Action movie: start off your dream by throwing a Grenade behind you and walking forward while putting on sunglasses. You decide what happens next.

Murder mystery: see someone killed in cold blood and fail to catch the killer... initially. Will the clues be enough to deduce who it is?

Comedy: have your classic dream where you show up to school naked and embarrassed... but then have a laugh track playing! Try to have fun with breaking the fourth wall, purposefully creating embarrassing and silly situations to overcome your fears

Horror movie: a monster is creeping up behind you. But surprise, you’re the real monster! How will this turn of events result?

Romance Drama: have a couple break up. Try to piece together the problem and fix it with a romantic ending.

Science fiction: begin with a classic narration, “in a world ruled by (dictatorship/robot/aliens...) someone will stop them.” Then you try to defeat that someone or something ruling the world
