honest answer:
Deep Impact: main characters/many extras run for the mountains, taking cover as meteors shower down. the sky grows dark from the doom-level rock blocking out the sun. everyone turns to face it: screams: world ends. fade to black.
DEEP IMPACT.
roll credits.
Since he’s been paying for the NHS with his taxes for years, however, it wouldn’t be charity.
Still, the story remains the same since he started getting into the business to provide for his family after his possible death, while paying for the treatment was always a secondary goal (he even considered not even trying)
And brits with indian origins are not known for their lawlessness. Maybe the Irish or, more probably, Russian gangs would be the equivalent.
Who said anything about lawlessness? I was thinking dark complected immigrant population who’s rice heavy cuisine is popular with the natives.
In the John Cusack movie Identity, simply move the Big Reveal till after the climactic shootout.
Yes. The point of the Mexican characters in Breaking Bad is their connection with illegal drugs, not their cuisine, however.
It looked to me like Tuco knew how to make a hell of a burrito.
Perhaps they are saving that for Sweeps.
I said rice and beans, not ricin beans!
Then why is everybody always talking about “the cook?”:dubious:
Perry Mason. Hamilton Burger wins a case and Mason’s client ends up on death row.
Actually there is case case where Mason’s client is found guilty but Burger is prosecuting the wrong man (who has assumed a different identity) for the wrong crime.
Battlestar Galactica TNG. Forget this shit with only 12 cylon/human models and once dead, their memories get downloaded. It was at it’s best early one when people had to make tough decisions about a civilization that in a matter of minutes had been virtually wiped out.
Star Trek TNG: Space Wesley Crusher. Or for that matter, have tension between Picard and quack doctor Beverly Crusher over the death of her husband (I’ll bet he was just using that as an excuse to stay away from Wesley). “Greatest mind since Mozart”, my eye!
In Disney’s animated Beauty and the Beast, do away with the Gaston character entirely and eliminate the stock violent ending. The internal conflict of the original story was good enough; if they wanted a comically vain character (or a few of them), they could have restored the siblings from the original and let them fill the bill.
Wizard of Oz…Dorothy stays in Oz…For Og’s sake people…She chose to go back to Western KANSAS!!!
Have you ever seen Western Kansas?
In **Charly, **drop the time passing-Charly out of control scene on the Honda 150 or whatever it was…It made no sense at all other than embarrassing an otherwise very good movie.
Dr. Okun does mention that humanity has been reverse-engineering the alien technology for years.
I came into the thread to post the very same thing
dons flameproof suit I liked Jar-Jar… seriously though, replacing the Ewoks with Wookies would have made EpVI far better.
edit And remove any mention of mitohlorians.
Or like in the book, a few dozen of Aragorn’s superhuman ranger buddies. The army of ghosts should have just scared away Saurons reinforcement ships, them rubbing out all the attackers makes the sacrifices of the battle meaningless
You’ll get your dwarf action in the Hobbit film I assume.
Hitler and the German High Command escape the theater at the last minute in Inglourius Basterds. Landa is delievered to the Allies who then reveal that Hitler is still alive. The deal is off. Look of horror on Landa’s face as he realizes he is totally undone. The hunter is captured by his own cunning.
Keeping Up Appearances
Richard grows a pair, buys a tin-plated replica of the Queen’s silver tea service, and beats Hyacinth to death with it.
The police are baffled, as dozens of people confess to the crime…
Many thoughts:
BSG: Give us the Starbuck ending I think they led us up to and then did a Deus Ex Machina at the last minute that made no sense.
Lost: I don’t mind the mysticism but, again, it seemed out of place with most everything else we had seen up until then. However, the bigger problem seems to be that I don’t think the writers made it clear enough what they meant. There comes a point when the writer is too vague, not that the reader/viewer needs to think about it more.
Matrix: Yes to computational processors instead of batteries. Have another area of cows for batteries. And if we have to keep the second and third movie, explain it that the computer had done a (pre) Inception like layering and they had never left the matrix.
Star Wars prequels: Essentially, listen to Red Letter Media. Show don’t tell. Don’t have so many Jedi. Don’t try and explain the Force and who has it or not. etc.
ST:TNG: I think the problem with this was more Roddenberry wanting all humans to get along and so conflict had to be external. I think tension between humans could be better but having said that Voyager didn’t do it very well. They were more consistent with stardates but not travel times.
ST:Enterprise: Start with season four and go from there. No temporal war.
Actually, a lot of shows could be improved with “have a cohesive plan, stick to it.” X-Files, BSG, ST:TNG, DS9 (although this got one later but still limited), and probably more. The other part of that is give a show at least a season to develop itself and if it does make it don’t let TV execs mess with it or draw it out if it’s popular!
Love the idea of Keeping Up Appearances! Funny!
