if you could make a movie?

[FUNKMAN]

what kind of movie would you make? and provide a little plot info...

> sci-fi
> romance
> murder-mystery
> comedy
> sports story
> porno
> animated childrens tale
> natural disaster

these are just some ideas...

i have this idea for a movie that kind of relates to Saturday Night Fever but it takes place on the local ballfields of jersey city, bayonne, hoboken, brooklyn, and central park. It would be about the 'touch and tackle' football games my friends and i played at these various locations. How we would play teams of different races, the Irish guys, the Black teams, the Peurto Rican teams(a gang or group who called themselves the Zodiacs who all wore purple jackets with all the Zodiac signs on them), playing in the Brooklyn league and all of the local games against other neighborhood teams.

For a couple years we had a team that included 3 of my brothers and I along with our friends. Man did my two eldest brothers argue about quarterbacking. You Suck! No You Suck, I should be quarterbacking!

Getting up on a Sunday morning at 6:30 to get into brooklyn for an 8:00 game after being out partying the night before.

It would include the fights, the wins and the losses. Games played in zero degree winds, and in heavy downpours. It would also include some of the personal stories that took place at home with the family and friends and girlfriends. Cruising for girls down Bergenline Ave and going to the local bars and clubs. the pot and the coc and the hookers.

The music would be very Important, alot of Rock and Roll, especially backing up the car rides to the football games, going over the bridges, and the football game scenes like the kickoffs and the giving and getting of 'being knocked on your ass'...

anybody feel like helping me write a book so i could turn it into this movie?
;p

A little something I would work on with Ron called "Murder at the Super Bowl. Thats all I can really say right now."

Always remeber the Man In Black.

Action-drama

24/7 Mobile outreach program that moniters mentally ill and substance abusers in the community. Takes place in the inner city. Combination of something like COPS, ER, 3rd Watch.

Cast regulars of social worker stereotypes (helper, renegade, by-the-book), doctor, nurses, program director.

Special guest appearance of people that would play crazy people off medication and the shit that they do. Also haed-core drug addicts runnning there game (ex. selling their meds and ensure to local pharmacy, using SSI to support their habit, etc). Guest spots could lead to recurring role.

Scenery be the streets, court, jail, what ever- "Where ever you go, they'll be there, even if you try to aviod or hide from them- they'll find you"

They'll be alot of crisis interventions, emergencies, volitale situation, and tender moments.

I would love to make a sci-fi flick. A movie that challenges the notion of how humans evolved. It would involve an archeologist and the discovery of proof that humans have been around for millions of years. Maybe a discovery of where all that junk DNA in our bodies came from. How we are a hybrid of an alien species and early man. That myths and legends of Atlantis and Egyptian gods are true. Of course, the powers that be, the illuminati would do anything to stop it. It seems like an Indian Jones/Stargate hybrid, but it wouldn't rely too much on special effects. I've read so much on alternate history, I find it a really fun subject.

Then again, I use to work with troubled kids and always thought a movie about how one survived against the odds and made it on his/her own would be a good movie. I've seen it in person and it is truly inspirational and makes all of the little problems I claim to be so big... so insignificant.

vengence movie.
i'd love to do a vengence movie...a look at killing and murder and how it could be morally justified. I say could be. It would be a challange to decide what one would do in anothers shoes.
but in the end, it would have the lead/hero-type die because those who kill get killed (live by the sword-die by the sword)

otherwise, I'd do a movie where the hero is the villian. i love the Hannibal movies for this.

It would involve a killer-robot driving instructor that travels back in time and has a heartbreaking decision to make about whether his best friend lives ... or dies. And, oh yeah: his best friend's a talking pie!

Oh...and there would have to be a shot in it showing a dog with shifty eyes.

Furtherman, you need to go out ant get a copy of Protector by Larry Niven.


btw that's the movie I'd make - it basically tells the story that there is this race that is small and helpless when young, grows into this breeding species when in middle age, then eats this "fruit of the tree of life" which makes them into "protectors" who are very smart and very violent about protecting their bloodline - the catcher is that their species is us, just we dont have the tree of life, so we grow old and die.

I'm not doing this story justice but it's good....

oh yea, and we discover all this when a Protector arrives at the earth to save us when all the tree of life died 30,000 years ago - he brought more with him.....

I get the Simpsons reference, but might I make a casting suggestion for the killer-robot driving instructor...

Here's a better synopsys

AMAZON (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0345353129/qid=1066782872/sr=1-19/ref=sr_1_19/102-6862933-8216147?v=glance&s=books)


Phssthpok the Pak had been traveling for most of his thirty-two thousand years. His mission: save, develop, and protect the group of Pak breeders sent out into space some two and a half million years before...
Brennan was a Belter, the product of a fiercely independent, somewhat anarchic society living in, on, and around an outer asteroid belt. The Belters were rebels, one and all, and Brennan was a smuggler. The Belt worlds had been tracking the Pak ship for days -- Brennan figured to meet that ship first...


and


Protector is an interesting, fast story that will leave you wanting more. Our protector, a Belter (lives in the asteroid belt) named Brennan is transformed by an alien virus into a protector for us lowly breeders. Taking the threory of the stingy genes one step further, a protector is a super being whose only purpose is to protect his progeny. Without decendents a protector simply stops eating and dies. Lucky for us Brennan is infected with this virus and made a protector, because our parent race, the Pak, is on their way and will not be pleased when they find us.


worth a read (or 2)

p.s. some of his collaboration with Steven Barnes, such as Dream Park and the sequels would make an interesting mini series

I'd make a movie about a guy growing up in the suburbs of New Jersey. It would start when he was real young and go until he died. It would basicly be his life and would include things such as, his love life, his friends, his job, and his life after his wife dies when he is old. It would be a touching movie.

[imabadman]

i'd make a sequel to office space. it'd be a comedy/survival movie about working at wnew. my charecter would'nt be a radio personality, but a low level corperate drone caught between management and online air personalitys.

[shamus mcfitzy]

I had this idea for a series of 5 Hitler movies. In the first Hitler goes forward in time, takes over the world. But the thing is, the movie isn't all that bad, and its kinda funny sometimes. Like a proposed scene where David Schwimmer gets stomped to death, and its really funny, but then just when everyone laughs, I show a guy vomiting all over a woman getting raped, so everyone in the theater gets really disgusted about laughing. That's just some of the humor. And then towards the end the US government gets all these past US presidents to travel forward in time (Washington, Lincoln, FDR, etc.).

And then they get super weapons, like FDR's super machine gun wheelchair, and the second one is just about the war between the super Americans and Hitler's new army. And in the third one eventually Jesus is sent forward in time, played by David Blaine (this was like two years ago), and then with a half hour left Jesus and the rest of the world defeat Hitler, but a German nazi superhero "Uberguy"comes out and then everyone gasps, and the 4th movie is then "Jesus vs Uberguy" and that ends with everyone actually discovering that Jesus and Uberguy are working together, and then movie #5 is Jesus and Uberguy versus two of my original superheroes "The Punchman", whose power is that he can continue to punch for days on end, and "DrunkDriverMan", whose power is that he becomes invincible (and quite Irish) when drunk and behind the wheel of his 1933 Ford. And I never really came up with an ending to that.

So, that doesn't sound too crazy, right?

[Furtherman]

Thanks for the info Bill! I will look into that.

Another movie I would love to make would be the story of Cotrez. Everytime I listen to Neil Young's 'Cortez the Killer', I think it would make an excellent movie.

I want to make a movie where, a fantastic but over looked radio show plots to kill this other radio host from levitown, ny and take over his time slot

[FUNKMAN]

Everytime I listen to Neil Young's 'Cortez the Killer', I think it would make an excellent movie.


also one of my favorite songs... Neil Youngs guitar playing seems to put you in the location where the story of the song is taking place... Like Powderfinger, it puts you on the banks of the Mississippi....
