Someone eating, slicing, juicing, purchasing, dropping, or throwing three oranges.
I like someone, at least once, even if discreetly, being speartackled by a Viking.
What I said last time still applies:
- Character Named/Credited as Adam Anderson (who would always be dressed slobbily, have a 5 o’clock shadow, wear his dark shoulder-length hair in a ponytail, and have a small platinum ring in his left earlobe)
- Director’s Cameo - but never with my face clearly visible
- Reference to my other movies - once I make more films, of course
In every movie, an extra would stroll through. (If possiblie, it would be the same on in every movie.) Her pants would be down low enough that you could see that she’s wearing a bright orange thong. I would give a long, no holds barred interview to the first reviewer who noticed.
In every movie, I’d do a bit-part; Hot dog vendor, receptionist, under-cover cop, whatever. But I’d always be dressed the same way and have somebody refer to me by the same name in all the movies. In each movie, something new would be learned about the characacter though his small interactions with the stars, along the lines of “How’s the kids, Jim?”(1st movie) "Hey, Jim, how’d your wife’s surgery go? (2nd movie), etc.

I’d have a scene where a few dozen extras are walking on the street, and all are talking into their cellphones, ad-libbing agressive terms of abuse: “Asshole!” “Shit-head!” “Drop dead!” “Go to Hell” “Fuck you!” “Moron” etc.
I think I’ll set it in my hometown, NYC, where this isn’t too far from the truth.
I love butterflies, so there would be something butterfly related in every film, whether it would be art, a collection, jewelry, whatever. My husband says I’m obsessed, and I think he may have a point. There are over 40 butterfly decorations on my computer room walls alone.

Dewey: I saw “no testing,” and I will tell you why, Joe…
Gabe: Gabe.
Dewey: …Gabe. It’s because I believe…that children are the future. You can teach them well, but, brother, you have got to let them lead the way. Let the childrens’ laughter remind us of how WE used to be. That’s what I decided, long ago.
Other teacher: Isn’t that a song?
Dewey: Um…no. No, I don’t think so. Hrm…nope.

At one point in every movie, the leading man will be seen wearing a Hawaiian shirt.
A prominently, even distractingly, placed Drinking Bird.
A cel phone ring that sounds like this.
Some reference or another to the name “Sledziski.”
At least one minute’s worth of gratuitous business with a cat while important dialogue is going on.
A largish, conspicuous, handsomely framed photograph of this man. Just for the look in his eyes.
I would have a scene where at the end the heroine has to choose between our hero, or the other guy, to be with. The movie would pause, an announcement or something would come on, telling the audience she will choose based on their wishes. All those who want her to chose our hero, applaud now, etc. Of course, the hero would get the most applause, the voice over would state “here is the ending YOU chose” and show that ending. Maybe this would fool 1 out of 100 people who would wonder if the other non existent ending would have been shown had the applause gone the other way, and how the theatre would have made the switch on the projector, etc.
William Castle did this in his film “Mr. Sardonicus”. At the climax he appeared on the screen and asked the audience to vote thumbs up or thumbs down to the fate of the films villian, Sardonicus. Of course, the villian was always punished.
Maybe you could include “both” endings on the DVD, so that people who only managed to see one in the theater could get to see both.
Even better if you could start an urban legend that some reels actually did ship with the ending that was only ever on DVD.
Drat, “Mr. Sardonicus”, eh? You mean someone stole my idea, and used it 40 years before I thought of it? I guess it is true, there is no movie idea that has not been done before (except Memento) :smack:
A sign, salesman, commercial or peddler, marketing rubber eggs.
A large quartz crystal, at least billard ball sized.
Either, but they must appear at least 3 times in every film, no explainations given.
Someone would be bounced. Or, at least someone would consider him or herself to be bounced.
