Inevitably, MacGuffins tend to be more common in film than fiction. Film excels at passive objects of desire, which makes cinematic sense: less time wasted, less exposition, more cool objects to want. The same cannot be said of a book. In a book, passive objects of desire go stale quick because fiction affords plenty of room for unpacking inanimate objects beyond simply showing them. Literary characters can easily pursue abstract, complex, and contextual objectivesâ¦which (incidentally) is a big part of why so many movie adaptations suck. Fiction focused on MacGuffins turns formulaic quick.
