Default "Tropic Amigo Quest"

I've got a great idea for a film. It's about a bunch of hilariously pompous actors in a genre tv show who suddenly, through events that are so convoluted to be barely intelligible, are put in the situation for real.

Mine is about a bunch of actors from Eastenders being forced to run a pub in the East End of London, whilst fending of mockney gangsters with wierd Oedipal complexes - to hilarious effect.

Well without much more than that I won't lend you the money to film it. Also the fact that I don't like eastenders doesn't help.

Good luck with this one

Default What are your craziest ideas for films?

I just read on the Internet (so it MUST be true obviously) that someone is trying to green-light a ‘Pride and Predator’ film. Basically, large head-hunting aliens land on Earth in the eighteenth century or something.

It reminded me of a weird discussion me and a few mates had back in 1998 after we watched Plunkett and MacLean at the cinema – we came up with an idea regarding, ‘Plunkett and MacLean vs The Predator’ (wonder who’d have won?).

Maybe if Pride and Predator goes ahead, we should have pushed our idea a bit harder?

Post My Horror Movie Idea

I have had this idea for an incredibly long time and I don't know exactly why I am sharing it with anyone but here it goes.

A christian high school student can't quite grasp his religion. In his life he is incredibly unhappy and plans on commiting suicide. He then (psychotically) gathers that if he murders his friends, they will go to Heaven meaning he can commit suicide and not be in Heaven on his own.

The idea may sound odd and slightly loopy but I have always loved a Horror/Thriller movie where the killer/villian has a screwloose in their head e.g. Annie Wilkes, Alex Forrest, Margaret White. But, the idea is to take mainly Margaret White's character and turn her character into something a little more evil...

But if he commits suicide, then by Christian law, he's not allowed into the Kingdom of Heaven.

Exactly! That's the point. He can't grasp Christian faith and he's a psychotic teenaner so he kills all them people needlessly...

Well, that's the kind of thing that any person should know regardless of religion. I wouldn't say I'm an atheist, just generally lazy, and even I know that suicide means you get no entrance into Heaven. If anything, it would make the lead character appear like an unbelievable thickie.

Rocky: A match too far with Mike Tyson
Maybe a Rambo movie, set with him running a candy shop, no war, no fighting, how long would it take before he lost his mind.

I'd post them but I'm in fear of people stealing them, I'm still in that delusional state when you're a teenager and you think anything is possible, so at this moment time when I grown I'll be a writer/director and my films will be critical successes. Whether this happens is unlikely though.

Default Love Story

I've got this huge idea involving a love story either taking place when Pompeii erupted in 79 AD or

a story about an English grave robber and servant (who's really a princess) who fall in love.

Pretty crazy.
