How many ideas for movies do you have?

Dancing Slavegirls of Mars. Martians, their women long since gone because they wouldn’t clean up the place and the red dust gets in EVERYTHING, discover that Earth is full of women. So they hop a spaceship and fly to Earth, where they discover that the easy way to find fun , naked women is in strip clubs. So they kidnap the dancers of a couple dozen strip clubs and take them back to Mars to be their dancing sex slaves. Or wives, Martians are a little weak on that distinction. Where they discover that Earth’s gravity, being MUCH great than Mars, means that the Earth women’s strength compared to Martian men’s strength is like unto the different between a gorilla’s and a human male’s strength. Hijinks ensue!

I see it as a B movie comedy sorto f thing. Or perhaps a musical.

So it’s a Mars Needs Women! reboot. Gotta be better than the original.

Prowl
A lioness escapes from a circus, and roams through farmland and forest. Though the locals fear for their lives, the lioness never puts anyone in harm’s way and their fears are exaggerated and without foundation. Shown entirely from the lioness’s POV, we see her try to figure out how to survive and get to a place of safety, while constantly being pursued by Animal Control who intend to have the lion killed.

I liked it when it was called The Iron Giant.

Mars Needs Women was seriously lacking in sex, naked women, dancing, romancing and humor (well, the intentional kind). Also, Mars Needs Women did not have super strong women, though it SHOULD have. So, no, not a reboot at all.

I think that would make a great movie. Lots of Viking action and you get to look at the mores and social conventions of the times.

Thanks! That’s pretty much what I was aiming for, along with the girl’s character development and her relationship with Old Gran, who is quite a lady to know - and also has some berserker blood in her that she hasn’t talked about since a little incident when she was young.

And it doesn’t sound at all like Merida to me.

You are an enigma.

Though if you were a real Studio Executive in charge of greenlighting ideas, you’d be excited by all the plots that are similar to other successful films*.

*Not that Iron Giant was successful, unfortunately

That’s why it’s a reboot rather than a remake. Same starting point and inciting action, but now with more sex and violence! And robots! Gotta have robots.

I’m thinking John Waters directing.

And the robots would all be named BOB.

Well the idea definitely has tremendous potential for camp, and Waters would know how to handle that for sure. But let’s face it, if Waters made the movie, the Martians would be abducting drag queens from gay nightclubs, being clueless about sex and all. Which would make for a fun movie! But a different movie than the one I had in mind.

TITLE: Survive The Night
SYNOPSIS: Roberto (Bobby) Gutierrez and Emily (Emma) Grant are newlyweds, married that morning. After the reception, they get in their car to go to Little Creek, Virginia.
At dusk, in the middle of nowhere, their classic (old) car suffers a catastrophic breakdown. With no cell-phone reception,They gather their essential luggage and start walking down the two-lane blacktop. They come upon a ratty motel and check-in.
Still no cell-phone reception, and the motel’s land-line out, Bobby and Emma relax in their room. Weird stuff starts happening. Knocks on the door with nobody there, freaky masked faces appearing in windows, weird voices on the “dead” phone line.
When the five masked people attack the room, Bobby and Emma are freaked out, but ready.
Bobby is a Navy SEAL, going to Little Creek to train others, and Emma is an Army MP.
Between the two of them, they hunt down and kill four of the five “Hunters” throughout the night.
After dawn, the local cops arrive and “rescue” Bobby and Emma. Emma notices that a deputy has the same last name as one of the hunters who (stupidly) carried his drivers license .
After interviews with all surviving witnesses, Bobby and Emma are let go. Emma looks at the deputy, who is scowling, and smiles. She makes a gun (fist with fore finger and thumb out), smiles, and mouths the word “BANG.”
Credits roll

I have an idea, but no name for it.

I’m thinking of it starting out like a typical dead teenager movie, except as the film progresses the kids turn out to be sooo terribly annoying that the audience wants to see them all dead and start rooting for the killer. Unfortunately, the killer has the luck of Wile E Coyote trying to catch the Roadrunner.

Example: Just as the killer swings a double edged axe to decapitate some teen who really needs to be dead, the teen spots a dime on the ground and bends to pick it up. So the axe misses the punks neck and continues until it comes to rest in a circuit breaker box and the killer ends up looking like Daffy Duck after Elmer Fudd blows his beak to the other side of his face. So it’s a mashup of Friday the 13th and Looney Toons.

I think it could make a profit.

It’s not my fault Russ Meyers is dead. Because he would have totally made that film.

**Entertainment News **: A TMZ type show is doing a story on something in a remote location. Then a really important event occurs (terrorism, aliens , something ) and they end up being the only ones who can do a story on it (the area is cordoned, outsiders aren’t allowed in, whatever). How funny it would be if only TMZ could cover a huge important story- in their TMZ way.
