How many ideas for movies do you have?

I have an idea that’s just simply called “Fight!”

Unlike other fighting movies that promise all action and don’t deliver, this would just be 90 mins of people fighting. Sure, ok, you can have a main hero, but all he would do is be fighting the whole time. We’d skip all of the parts where he’s not fighting and just have a quick 1 min break, but for the rest of the time he’ll be fighting. He’ll move from location to location just kicking people’s asses for little to no reason. It’ll be like taking 10 Jackie Chan movies and editing together just the fighting scenes

All of the dialogue and exposition would be shouted during the fighting while punches and kicks are being thrown. There will be no down time at all!

I love that, except for the soft part in the middle where they realize high school doesn’t matter anymore. They should just be fuckups who still want to shoot up the reunion, but they’re too unfocused to really follow through on ideas. At least they get some guns. They’re at the reunion, trying to psych each other up to do it, and then someone else comes in and takes hostages or starts shooting or both.

Terrorists, though? Why would terrorists attack a high school reunion?

Maybe it could be those assholes from Jefferson High. (Jefferson High is our rival).

43

No major studio will touch this idea with a ten foot pole. Too soon.

44

Producibility did not enter into my commitment to loving the idea.

I guess you mean too soon since Columbine - it’s a reunion, which is slightly different. But it is just too dark to be a big studio release, no matter when.

Human Resources.: in a small firm in an office building, the best and brightest employees are one by one “promoted” upstairs to the mysterious Human Resources on the 13th floor, until only the ragtag misfits remain. One misfit grows suspicious and sneaks up to Human Resources, where he discovers that the best and brightest are being harvested by brain-sucking alien cannibals. Now it’s up to the misfits to work together, defeat Human Resources and rescue their colleagues. Human Resources: This Time, It’s Personnel.

46

This one is a winner!

47

When my dreams make sense, they’re like mini movies or episodes from TV shows. One example of the former: call it Jurisdiction – a police procedrual covering how the major players in the Greater DC Area must work together to solve crimes due to how often crimes cross jurisdictions.

48

Crimes, Cross, Jurisdictions

Exposing the seedy under belly of the RCC, following a pair of wise cracking, but thorough, Vatican Police-Priests

rated R for seedy-ness and for Bruce Willis and Danny Aiello

:smiley:

Then there’s the Tim Burton-esque Toontown Fire.

Oh, get ideas for movies in my head all the time. Like the one where a bad-ass barbarian warrior rescues some sexy elf women, then has sex with them. Or the one where a bad-ass cyberneticly enhanced warrior rescues some sexy space women, then has sex with them. Or the one where a bad-ass American GI rescues some sexy Jewish women from Nazis, then has sex with them (the women, not the Nazis).

ETA:If anyone wants to make these ideas into reality, you have my blessing.

51

How do you think the GI got the location of the Jewish women?

He screwed it out of some Fräuleins! :smiley:

52

Sounds like an episode of Doctor Who.

53

I liked it when it was called Stripes.

I liked it when it was called A.I..

I hope this one gets made.

You have to have the ‘realize high school doesn’t matter anymore,’ it’s part of what makes the movie redeemable and palatable.
The terrorists are actually a group of white Canadian guys called The Bloody Maples. It’s established early in the film that one of their classmates can’t come to reunion because, according to his family, he moved up to Montana to become a survivalist and start a militia. When he shows up with a gang of terrorists at the end, their motive is to shoot up the reunion in order to make it look like the Canadian government funded an attack on the United States and thus start a war between Canada and the U.S. (“It’s been a long time coming” one of them quips ) so that Canada will be overthrown and thus they, Canadian terrorists, will be able to establish a new government in their home country.

No, but independent ones might, or private investors.
It’s 2013, folks. We’ve seen school shootings made fun of on Family Guy, and some low-budget (and completely irredeemable, unlike my film) comedies about school shootings have been made since the 90s (see: Duck!).

They already have that new t.v. show about the hot lady who has to work with the Mexican government every week to catch U.S. criminals who cross into Mexico, and v.v.

54

I’m sorry-in your OP you said you were look for major motion picture ideas.

55

Ideas for movies? Boy have you come to the right place. I’ve got more ideas than you could shake a stick at. Here are a few, along with some constructive criticism I’ve received. All totally original!

Slay Ride: Haris Yulin plays a fired department store Santa who is also a brilliant mechanical engineer. Distraught over his job loss and the commercialization of the season, he constructs a series of cruel gory nigh-inescapable traps to teach people the true meaning of Christmas. Co-starring Jennifer Lawrence as his estranged daughter, who may hold the key to stopping him.

Dark Vector: the Darkening: Matt Damon plays an ordinary shmoe who begins to have disturbing dreams and bizarre visions. He learns from wise old Morgan Freeman that he is in reality the chosen one, who must save mankind from evil special effects from beyond the dawn of time. Now it’s a race against time as he must master good special effects, defeat the evil enemy, and save Jennifer Lawrence. Co-starring Andy Sirkis, a green screen, and thousands of drums of gasoline.

Gritty Cop, Dark City: Richard Burgi is a straight arrow by the book detective who resents being forced to partner with Christopher Meloni, an out of control maverick. While investigating what appears to be a routine murder, they uncover a conspiracy that reaches to the highest levels of government. Co-starring Michael Cera as the naïve but eager rookie who fills in for Christopher Meloni when Chris is sleeping off a hangover and Jennifer Lawrence as Michael Cera’s pregnant widow.

The Inhumans: A movie based on the Marvel comics franchise. Starring Jennifer Lawrence as Medusa and Gilbert Gottfried as Black Bolt.

Bong Hits: Seth Rogan and Paul Rudd smoke pot and make pop culture jokes for 105 minutes. Co-starring Jennifer Lawrence as Paul Rudd’s long suffering girlfriend.

My Best Friend: When Ad executive Jennifer Lawrence’s life is going haywire, she can always turn to her best friend, architect Jake Gyllenhaal. He’s been like a brother to her ever since they met. Now she is about to get married to wealthy corporate lawyer Billy Zane. Will she realize in time where her true feelings lie? Co-starring Queen Latifah.

Friendzoned! : Architect Jake Gyllenhaal tries to get with total hot body Jennifer Lawerence, but his game is weak and he gets friendzoned. Now she’s going to get married to some corporate douche. Can he turn his game around in time to cockblock the douche and get with the babe he desires? Featuring cameos from real life PUAs Mystery and Neill Strauss.

A Hundred Days of Jane: Stockbroker Jessie Eisenberg is making a lot of money but feels disaffected and alienated from life. Then he meets Jane (Jennifer Lawrence), a quirky Brooklyn based artist who shows him the magic that lies just under life’s surface. They have a whirlwind romance and Jessie learns a lot, right up to the point that Jane coughs twice and drops dead from Cancer, AIDS, Fibromyalgia, Morgellon’s syndrome and feline distemper. Jessie vows to grow in her memory. Featuring music from Mumford and Sons, The Lumineers, Of Monsters and Men, and many others.

Autumn’s Twilight: Aging former concert violinist Anthony Hopkins moves into an old house in a small coastal Oregon town. There he meets Jennifer Lawrence, who is grieving over the death of her husband. Together the two help each other deal with mortality and the fragility of life. I predict Jennifer will somehow win two best actress Oscars for this. [Dear Larry, thank you for all your unsolicited script ideas. As you can see from her IMDB page Jennifer Lawrence is currently very busy and does not have time to start with any new projects, especially those without a fully formed script. Thank you, Leo Feinberg, representing Ms. Lawrence for the Creative Arts Agency.]

Men! : Anne Hathaway is a driven type A magazine editor. Jennifer Lawrence is a free spirited bartender. The two meet when both are stood up by their dates. We follow them on their romantic escapades about Manhattan. Can Jen teach Anne to loosen up and be spontaneous so men aren’t put off by her ice princess demeanor? Can Anne teach Jen to grow up and take some responsibility so men aren’t frightened by her crazy spirit? We’ll have fun finding out! Co-starring Bradely Cooper and Joseph Gordon Leavitt. With a cameo by Donald Trump as himself. Nora Ephron’s ghost is attached. [Seriously Larry, I’ve been putting up with this because we were friends in high school, but it’s got to stop. Also Nora Ephron was a friend and mentor, so I’m not sure what to make of your last sentence. Sincerely, Leo]

The Holocaust was Awful: A Polish child, a German child, and a Jewish child become friends in 1930’s Poland. Then the Nazis come. Featuring Jennifer Lawrence as a kindly SS officer. [What the hell? Absolutely Not! Leo.]

Jennifer Lawrence’s Left Nipple: An animated biopic of Jenffer Lawrence’s left nipple, ages 15 to present. Laugh and learn as the nipple—voiced by Gilbert Gottfried—must learn to get along with right nipple, find a comfortable brassiere, and in general find its place in the world. Featuring Robert DeNiro as the right nipple and Morgan Freeman as the kindly wise bra salesman. [Seriously, get help. L.]

You forgot Adam Sandler is Gonna Inherit a Billion Dollars but first he Must Do ____.

57

I wish they’d make a movie about the 1978 championship match between Karpov and Korchnoi. There was enough controversy and skulduggery for two movies. To make it dramatic, it will have to be from the point of view of the respective seconds and other members of the two entourage. I nominate Allan Rickman for the role of Dr. Zhukhar.

58

Oh, Canadian terrorists. That needs to get moved up into the pitch line.

That sounds like a great stupid movie.

Mine is Champlain.(Finally, a Feel-Good Movie about Benedict Arnold!)

In 1776, New York City had a population of 25,000. Boston, Massachusetts was occupied by a foreign power. And Vermont was the Wild West.

It’d be a movie that covers Arnold’s exploits at Ticonderoga, who then with a ragtag force built a navy in a matter of weeks that held off the British long enough to delay their invasion from the north for a year.[sup]1[/sup]

[sup]1[/sup]The capture of Ticonderoga and the Battle on Lake Champlain were actually separated by a year, but we’ll just whitewash that.

I have 4 great movie ideas.

First one is a remake of the 1968 The Odd Couple. Then 3 sequals:
The Odd Couple 2.
The Odd Couple 3.
The Odd Couple 4.

I’d love to see a movie about the Aztecs. Start with the eagle and the snake, F/X the crap out of Tenochtitlan, gold everywhere, show some crazy human sacrifices, a ball court game, a bunch of priests eating peyote and hallucinating seeing Quetzalcoatl, have Hernán Cortés show up and conquer them, show Moctezuma getting stoned to death by his own people as a result, etc etc.
