>a movie isn't just a story
Certified plebeian here.
What did he mean by this (I mean it)?
Is he referring to the "emotional experience" of a film, or more intangible qualities that a plebeian like myself could only hope to one day barely understand?I have a movie pitch for a warflickbut it's one of those "based on a true story" stories about a guy most people outside of /k/ or the .MIL community haven't heard of
A group of college students decide to make a documentary about orthodox black metal bands.
They try to interview one of the more underground acts, but their requests are declined. They get nosey, try to get some footage, and end up sacrificed during a satanic ritual.
It's NOT found-footage, it's fairly low-budget, and the main gimmick is that the film quality imperceptibly degrades over the course of the movie until the last few scenes are shot in grimy black and white like in Begotten with no voices on top, and the movie ends on a mess of damaged film and subliminal edits of spooky and abstract shit.
>>70720788
It just means that if possible you should also mention a few things about the way it's directed, maybe the casting, the way it's paced and structured, the type of narration, all that stuff.
>>70721017
Great idea
>>70721017
That sounds like fun.
Calvin & Hobbes
Done in stop motion by the same guys who did Fantastic Mr. Fox.
But directed by Sam Mendes and keep Wes Anderson far the fuck away.
>>70721017
Sounds pretty cool, mate
What if it was a music critic writing an article, instead of a bunch of kids making a documentary? I feel like the "kids with a video camera get in over their heads" thing has been done too much, and you could mine a lot of interesting subtext and humor from the critic/artist relationship going horribly wrong.
Like "The End of the Tour" if David Foster Wallace cannibalized Jesse Eisenberg at the end. I'd watch it
>>70722014
How is that "your" idea?
>>70720725
OP is a Hollywood exec trying to get some ideas.
>>70722115
Yeah that sounds a bit better, the reason why I went with a documentary was because I was going for a slasher movie kind of deal, but a horror film with only one protag is neat too. It just needs to be a fairly interesting character who isn't a douche.
>>70722218
Yeah it was just a thought, but I dig the concept and the setting either way. Good luck with it. I bet you could actually get some funding if you wrote the script up well, and made a short film first to prove you can put an idea on the screen
>>70722192
Of course I am.
I'll pick the most interesting ones, get them filmed in the least imaginative way possible, add dubstep on top of it, only use practical effects where CGI can't be done, and cast the least appropriate A-list actors in the main roles to appeal to the average joe.
Because I'm a professional, not a nerd who posts frogs on the internet from his basement.
>>70720725
An adventure flick set in the Australian Outback. There's a band of characters including the protag whose a charming womaniser, who gets into bar fights, he's former convict who did his time and is now seeking hidden fortunes. Travelling with him is an oblivious American who is the fish out of water, comic relief. Then he meets an aboriginal who has a fat wife, they start out rivals but eventually escape some sort of daring situation. In the process they accidentally rescue a small Chinese girl who had been kidnapped by human traffickers.
Then they go on a quest. That's all I've got.
>>70723599
I'd watch it if it was done in the late 80s.
>>70720725
A guy start to see pictures instead of texts, it bothers him because he's a journalist and he can do the difference between text and pics, pictures are actually a visual translation of what's written, so he begin to draw pictures to send to his editor because he can't draw anymore, the first time his boss ask him why the fuck he sent him a picture of *insert joke like Trump spanking Obama* so he'd depressed and shit but the something hits him and he began to realise something that will make him the best fucking writer... Well I won't spoil you the entire movie

>>70720725
A cyberpunk adventure film
Actually, as I envision it, it veers closer and closer to guardians of the galaxy except slightly darker and all set on one planet
A ultra-violent futuristic sports movie in the vein of Rollerball, Running Man, Smash TV, Speedball or death race, where you make a couple of setpieces to give the audience the idea that there's something wrong with the utopia and the titular character gets more and more involved in a revolutionary movement but the flick turns the tables on the audience by making the lead and the movement the bad guys and it ends with them getting away with it. The general idea is that the ultraviolent sport is an outlet for a generally safe and peaceful society (as in, the purge) but the rise of a star (the lead character) ends up propelling the sport's popularity and influence over the society via this revolution which is essentially a vaguely nihilistic/chaotic cult masquerading as an alternative to presumed totalitarianism (which isn't really). And there's no moral to the story.
>>70724430
That sounds extremely vague and dumb since it could apply to several movies that already exist or are going to come out soon.
>>70724555
Eh, that could be an interesting movie, as long as it's not your own revenge fantasy against "edgy kids" who bullied you in high school.
Ignaz Semmelweis biopic
He was a scientist who discovered that way less patients died when doctors washed their fucking hands. His research was largely ignored because at the time doctors were like "we aren't dirty - this is an insult!" He spent most of his life angrily trying to refute this, got depressed, was put in an insane asylum and died.
The thing is, modern theorists believe that he suffered from Alzheimers throughout the later part of his life, explaining his erratic unsociable behaviour that led to him being put in a madhouse.
The first two thirds of the film would be quite a naturalistic period drama, only slightly stylised (think Amadeus) but the latter third would deteriorate and start using weird cuts and absurd imagery as his mental state goes.
I started writing for shits and then briefly got over my writer's block on this concept
But then I got stuck again. It's fine, it's too out-there for me to worry about anyone stealing it
It'd be about Gods and philosophy. Which sounds pretentious, but it'd be fairly minimalist. It'd be more open to interpretation instead of a couple of guys in trench-coats sitting discussing morality
Like, it'd open with the main character having been shot, falling in slow-motion
You don't see the attacker, but as our hero falls he describes the feeling
And the scene keeps cutting between him falling, a demon flying up from the depths of hell and an angel falling from heaven
Each time it cuts, the speed would increase and the image would increase in brightness and zoom until there was just a white light. And then a whisper- “save us”
"And then nothing"
I don't know if that makes sense
>>70724588
well yeah, that's because i only wrote one and a half sentences because it seemed too derivative
>>70724555
edgy
I think it'd be cool to make 2 movies of whatever, but make them connected like the MCU (Not like James Bond, to compare)
The gimmick to it is that they are released at the same time, 2 different directors that do work together, and then not tell anyone they are connected. At all.
>>70724966
Are you literally 10?
Cause that shit isn't a movie it's a scene.
And it's arguably more pretentious than all of The Matrix, since you claim that it's about gods and philosophy when it's just a very basic allegory of damnation with no conceptual discourse involved. At least The Matrix DOES contain philosophy even if it's a little dumb and masturbatory. And unlike your concept, The Matrix isn't so blatant about its religious themes as to literally show us angels and demons.
Your idea sucks, it's pretentious, it's stupid, and it's shit.
>>70725031
Well then why not write more so we can know what you really want to make instead of just assuming it's gonna be derivative and lame?
I mean derivativeness isn't inherently bad, but if you wanna pitch your idea, you have to make it SEEM fresh or exciting, and you can't do that by being so vague.
>>70725317
that's an interesting gimmick as long as the two movies are obviously very different and don't end up looking like one is ripping off the other.
>>70725378
That's the idea
Also keep it at just 2 movies. Don't go for the cashgrab once they're released and make 17 sequels and a prequel
>>70724555
To add, it starts as a movie about people falling in love with the idea of indiscriminate violence and chaos as the relief from their emotionless lives (think Equilibrium) but what it's really about is a satirical take of the current glorification of violence and a stress-test of the actual american movie censorship policy of all-the-violence-you-want-but-no-tits. Also, 1 and a half hours of people getting their brains bashed in. It also starts with a guy kicking a pregnant woman in the stomach (or something equally "distasteful", just that violence against women seems to be the cause du jour), just to clear the audience.
>>70724652
That's oddly specific, kek. And why would that preclude it from being a decent film?
4 guys holding a trench during WWI.
8 actors total (3 German trenchhoppers), dead bodies and a hole in the ground.At the end a courier comes across them and tells them the War's been over for ages.Then he gets shot down, FIN.

>>70724198
But I want an Uncharted movie.
A short film (~15 minutes) with a set up, twist, a little bit of action and an emotional finish.
It is scored separately by several great composers (Williams, Zimmer, Kamen, etc.) and the film is just the short film on repeat but with a different composer each time.
It's about an actor researching a real-life criminal to play him in a movie, an old Italian mobster in his 80s who spent half his life in prison for murder, his wife left him, lost touch with his kids, etc. The actor meets with him a few times to learn his mannerisms and talk about his past experiences and stuff.
The old gangster is desperately lonely, so he becomes a really clingy "friend" to the actor. Always trying to get him to go out drinking to wingman for him, help the old guy "get some pussy." The actor actually goes out with him one night and tries to help him pick up girls, but predictably, the old guy just ends up humiliating himself. He shows a nasty mean streak after getting rejected, but the actor gets him out of there before it gets too bad.
When the movie starts filming, the old gangster wants to hang around the set. The director (female) doesn't like it, thinks it'll be a distraction. The actor is kind of a pussy, like a lot of actors are, and has a hard time saying "no" to the old guy. So he drops by for a visit, but starts getting ahold of call sheets & shooting schedules, and soon he's showing up uninvited to the set just to hang around and watch.
>>70725561
They did that but in a japanese island in the pacific with WW2. I think.
a boy falls in love with a girl and they get married
>>70725319
>Your idea sucks, it's pretentious, it's stupid, and it's shit.
Well that's really mean
But yeah it is just a scene. That's quite obvious from what I wrote. It's not an allegory for damnation, it's just imagery for the themes of a muddled idea
It would make more sense if I could do anything with it
It's not pretentious, you should look that word up in a dictionary before you use it
I don't see how it can be called stupid when there's nothing in there that relates to substance. I wrote the visual outline of one scene where not much happens
If you want to say it's empty or lacking a point, you'd be right
But calling it pretentious and stupid makes you sound like you're a middle-schooler trying to insult something without going to the effort of actually evaluating it

Ehhh... It's been done before
>>70725737
To each other? That's gay
>>70724654
This is actually a pretty good idea. I mean it sounds like a cool factoid that couldn't be stretched out into a movie, but when's the last time someone made a movie about hygiene?
>>70725681
For a while, he's not really causing any trouble. He hangs around the grip & rigging crew to bum cigarettes, bug them and talk to them while they're working. One of the younger ones is kind of "into" the gangster culture, and fanboys out a little bit over the old guy. Just offhand, to look tough, he shows the kid that he still packs a gun everywhere he goes.
The director is pretty angry over it, though she never says so directly to the old gangster. She's taking it out on the actor, basically telling him he needs to tell the old guy to fuck off already. The actor can never really work up the balls to do it, so the old guy just keeps showing up and haunting the set. But it's clear that their "friendship" is getting very strained.
It starts getting bad when they start filming scenes of the gangster interacting with his family. He's made out to be a neglectful father and an abusive husband. He confronts the director, and demands to know if she talked to his wife to research the script. He's furious that nobody ever asked for his side of the story, at the idea that his grown children will see this version of him in a movie.
The director feels threatened, and calls for security to remove him.
>>70725470
Cause being edgy is good as long as you don't suck at being edgy.
>>70725877
>She's taking it out on the actor, basically telling him he needs to tell the old guy to fuck off already.
But it's the director's job to control what goes on in the set, not the actor's. At least make them fug so there's a reason the director's trying to shirk her responsibility.
>>70725799
Hey, thanks! There's a fair bit of stuff in his life that would be interesting I think. His marriage, and the strain that his research puts on it. How his wife copes with his mental deterioration. Also there's this dickhead who gets him kicked out of a job, I forget his name.
I do theatre so I've been sketching up a rough draft of this for stage. It's unfinished tho and I'm a lazy fuck so it'll never see the light of day.
>>70725748
pretentious is when you say you're hot shit but you aren't.
I evaluated your scene idea according to the standards of this thread. It's a thread about pitching a movie idea. Not a scene idea. If you don't actually have an idea for a movie then too bad for you cause that scene alone screams chuuni syndrome if it's not backed by a solid and decently deep story.
>>70725877
He disappears, but he's already got a copy of the shooting schedule. He shows up again when they're set to film the scene of the murder that put him in prison for 35 years. One of his best friends within the mob was believed to be an informant, and he killed him. Once he was already in prison for it, he found out they were wrong.
He shows up right as they're rehearsing the murder, fully lit and ready to roll. He watches the way the scene plays out, and clearly isn't happy. The director immediately calls for security, and he gets right up in her face, saying that if she's in charge, she should confront him herself. She doesn't say anything.
He storms onto the set, pushes the lead actor's head, and pulls his gun on the poor extra playing the murder victim. With a gun to the kid's head, he tells the director and the actor, in graphic detail, how the murder actually took place. Basically just correcting the inaccuracies in the script. When he's done, he puts the gun away and leaves.

>I have a movie pitch for a war flick but it's one of those "based on a true story" stories about a guy most people outside of /k/ or the .MIL community haven't heard of

>>70726089
Time speeds up in the epilogue, kind of like "Assassination of Jesse James."
The police come to the gangster's house for threatening the actor. He goes on trial, they take his guns away and put him on house arrest.
The movie is a success. The actor's career gets a major boost, but he starts getting typecast in gangster/criminal roles. Eventually, the "persona" starts getting to his head. He starts acting like an asshole and a diva on set, cheats on his wife and loses her, starts getting in trouble with the police. Without really meaning to, he's even repeating phrases the old gangster used to say when he was "researching" him.
Even though it makes him out to be a total asshole, one of the gangster's sons sees the movie and finally decides to reach out to him. They talk a few times, he gets to meet some of his grandchildren. A few months later, he dies.

Currently writing a short horror set in a world where zombies never existed in literature and pop culture together, and a zombie virus breaks out in a small village. A group of survivors who try to rationalise the attack, some think its a govt. experiment or most of the town were in a cult etc. then a guy and his bitten friend seek refuge in the cabin. The man eventually turns and attacks some of the other survivors. The cabin is divided between bitten and unbitten and it comes down to the last person, who decides to join them.

One of my older ideas that I don't really care if you guys steal or not. I was kind of thinking of re-doing it as more of a comedy, but haven't really worked on it in a while
I have for years been thinking about writing* a 'spiritual sequel' to a much loved teen comedy/drama series about the main character in his adult life. The main character has become extremely successful in all aspects of life, but he is an asshole.
The brand is long dead, the actors are at best nobodies, (one of them may be a sex offender or something now) could such a thing be made?
*i would never write it, I'm an awful writer, I just want someone to make it.
There was no security present backstage. I went in, the corridor was full of chairs that looked uncomfortable and the walls were overpopulated with wall posters of plays. I entered a dressing room and quickly hid in the closet. About 15 minutes pass and in comes one of the actors from whatever was currently playing. I quietly opened the closet door and snook up on him while he was sitting down and rehearsing lines, I knocked him out unconscious. I undressed him and lubricated his rectum and inserted my Johnson and his throbbing erection into that tight ass. Some faggot entered the room, presumably the director and demanded to know what was going on.
"Just rehearsing" I said pensively
"But the janitor isn't even in this thing" - Said the director, with a twitch in his eye.

I've always wanted a series like Walking Dead or something with the same kind of character interaction, but characters who do the trope-y stuff just get killed.
Moving through the area and not being careful? Killed by a sniper.
Go to have some standoff dialogue with someone? They just shoot you because you didn't shoot them.
Kind of like DayZ. Not necessarily a zombie setting, either, just one were people do stupid shit that is so pervasive and common in the genre, and they realistically die because of it.
A Mulatto girl at a fully white Midwestern high falls in love with the new black athlete transfer to the school. She manages to coerce him into a dating and to take drama classes. They are both cast in the school's iteration of Romeo and Juliet. This is the height of the character's romantic bliss. The Chad admits to her the week after the play that her feelings are not reciprocated and he breaks up with her. Black Chad is then cast as Othello opposite a pretty blonde white Stacy and the Mulatto girl only gets a bit part. The narrative then follows the MC as she falls into schizophrenic madness concerning the world around her. She comes to tge conclusion that Black Chad has been brainwashed to love Stacy and begins to stalk them. After confronting her white mother over her the details of her relationship with her father, she kills her mother in a rage. She becomes more deranged and finally kills Black Chad and apregnantStacy at the school on the night of the play.

That's so fucking gay dude, I hope you break your neck the next time you try deep throating your self.

There's chase scenes, action scenes, fight scenes, a sword fighting scene with the devil, and all kinds of shit. I still want to make it for fun. I still have the full script.

2 young police officers are paired and sent to patrol gang neighborhoods.
working together and making busts they get close. best friends full of trust
one officer notices though that for how effective they are its always on his partners info or hunch
he starts asking questions about it. the parnter deflects back to taking what he learned in the army
officer researching gang articles comes across one that claims that gang members will go to the army to learn techniques and how to handle weapons and return to the street when they are done 10x wiser
looking closely officer vaguely sees some faded looking marking/tattoo on his partner
going out on a gang related call both officers chase on foot the suspect through some houses or housing projects
this is where the corrupt gang related officer shoots and kills his partner. as he is laying there dying he starts to talk to him about how he really did enjoy his company and wished it didnt have to be like this. when his gang memeber approaches him with congratulatory "yea smoke dat fool essay" he shoots and kills him. he then radios in officer down.
the corrupt officer is hispanic

That's actually in my idea. I even created characters that loop into professors and neighbors. As well as objects in Stacy's room that make a reappearance in the main character's house.There's a stalking scene where she sees them have sex.

The epics of old were long and had intermissions, Bela Tarr has an 8-hour film that's considered one of the greatest of all time. Obviously it wouldn't be aimed at the Marvel quips and jumpcuts audience, but I don't feel like 5 or 6 hours is too extreme for such a dense and sprawling novel

You'd have to nail it with Holden's actor (and the kid's, if you're actually casting a 14/15 year old to play him) or it would never get off the ground.
I think it'd work better as a miniseries since there's just too much stuff that can't be cut or condensed, even a long movie couldn't begin to get all of it.
A blind white guy in gangland Detroit in the 70's.
Due to his misunderstanding of the idea of black and white people, he comprehends it only as Black=good, white=bad. Therefore he refers to all his enemies as crackers and his confidants as niggas. Nobody questions him because he's a powerful crime boss. He soon meets his match in Detective Charles Montgomery, a renegade black mute cop.
Four friends make a crappy board game and plan on pitching it on a relaity tv show. Because they're all douchebags, bad things happen and they end up dead, jailed, or otherwise out of the picture.

It would be prime operator kino
The entire movie is shot inside a train during the 70s, mostly inside only one cabin, in some european country, can't make my mind about which one, but it needs to have a foggy countryside.
There's a young american couple who are traveling towards the continent, ended in a cabin with other three people, who are quite silent and elusive. The train misses one stop, then another, and keep running. The guys go from "ahah they skipped a stop" to "holy fuck what the hell is going on", outside the window they can see armed people and when they want to go to ask for help they are held and soon tied by the people in their cabin.
The train keep going and in the end the fate uncertain, only that there is a plan to use them and all the innocent people on the train as a leverage for a coup d'etat led by a paramilitary organization.
They insist on the fact that they're americans, but in the end they realize that CIA knows and unofficially supports the act, they were simply in the wrong place at the wrong time.
No action scenes, no long dialogues, mostly tension.

Would be boring real fast
Christian Stanton is a actor who peaked early. His first major role was in a critically-acclaimed movie that earned him an Oscar nomination for best supporting actor, when he was just 21. He mishandled that fame, signing up for two failed franchise-builder action movies and then making an ever worse comeback attempt with a melodramatic movie that comes to be considered one of worst ever made. As his career declines, he loses everything. Money, fame and the interest of his peers, and, just four years later, is a washed-up has-been doing low-budget straight-to-video movies in New Mexico.
One day, he is approached by a representative of a prestigious and excentric movie director, Lionel Hawthorne, a Terrence Malick-esque brilliant recluse who wants Christian to star in his next movie, a self-funded adaptation of a controversial 19th century diaries of Lord Malcolm Ashbay, a disgraced nobleman and occultist who committed atrocities in rituals in which he aspired to obtain supernatural powers.
Lord Ashbay's diaries are a hightly controversial, often disputed literary piece, and has been adapted twice before. In both adaptation, the lead actor died shortly afterwards. The first committed suicide and the second died in a car accident. Suspicious circumstances have led to the movies never being released, the first being destroyed in a fire at the studio lot and the second being misplaced and becoming an urban legend, reportedly circulating in the black market and being so terrifying people refuse to speak of what they saw.
Christian is reluctant, but believes taking on the seemingly "cursed" role with such a prestigious director is his once-in-a-lifetime chance to get back into show business, so he accepts. Arriving at the set, the derelict mansion once belonging to the real Lord Ashbay, things slowly begin unraveling, and as Christian's commitment to the role drives him to the brink of insanity, he realizes the truth behind the role he was chosen for.

I'd watch it. Not an outlandish concept but unique enough to warrant attention.
Horror movies are pretty good in that the director is allowed a proportionally greater degree of freedom than in other genres and that they generally have a large profit margin.

I had this idea for a reversal of the "house invasion" genre.
Five criminals decide to rob a wealthy banker who lives alone with his clinically depressed daughter in a fortified house in L.A. The criminals are a bunch of assholes, aside from David, the reluctant brother of one of the gang members, Robbie.
The banker, Adam Newark, is a pillar of the community, a charitable, loving father trying to help his daughter who recently tried to commit suicide.
The gang breaks into Adam's house, ties him up and begins looting, but Adam manages to escape and arm himself to defend his house. The criminals send David to pick up Adam's daughter to use as a hostage, while Adam manages to ambush one of the violent gang members with a homemade trap.
David finds the daughter in her room, restrained so as to not harm himself, meanwhile, a terrified Adam struggles to subdue the robber.
Once David frees the girl, she hugs him and begs him to protect her. Meanwhile, Adam turns and slashes the robber's throat with cold precision.
It turns out Adam is a serial killer and kidnaps young women to be his daughter, killing them when they disobey his orders, and the girl at the house is his fifth victim.
Adam then turns the tables and locks the robbers in his house and begins picking them apart one by one while David and the girl, Jill, try to escape.

The main character is an actual, literal chimpanzee who struggles to convince the people around him that he's a human being.
The twist is, literally everyone is a chimpanzee, and everybody knows it, but no one's willing to admit it for fear that they're wrong, and they're the only real chimp and everyone else is actually human.
In an alternate reality 1899 London that's struggling to adapt to rapid steampunk-like technological advances, the city is in a state of panic in the wake of unwavering anarchic terrorist attacks. A private investigator believes that these agents of chaos are not disparate individualists but are part of a highly organized and potentially-powerful group, and through his work drags a suspicious American business magnate, a well-spoken prostitute, and a rookie government official into the mystery with him.

Basically, Mad Max meets Wings of Honneamise
A teenage everyman and movie buff is in love with his best friend, a popular girl, who has herself a crush on the most popular guy in school.
The everyman finds out he's in a movie himself, a teen romantic comedy, and the script calls for his crush to get with the nice guy jock. He then attempts to twist the narrative into a "she realizes she loved her best friend all along" movies, but his plans go terribly wrong, and he unravels the narrative.
Because of his meddling, the movie keeps switching genres, first to a all-out comedy, then to an indie dramedy, to an edgy drama, then to a slasher movie, etc. He's the only one aware of each switch and keeps trying to convince the girl and the jock of what's going on so he can steer the story back to the original ending and restore everything to normal.

And? Dogma uses that imagery and nobody shits on it for it. Because when you actually have the whole context, you know the angels are indispensable to the plot of the movie.
You're just shitting a torrent of facile, hand-wavy dismissals feigning criticism while there barely enough to criticize in the first place. Which is what could've been criticized. TL;DR you're just acting butthurt.

Okay, I'm gonna give you a little bit of Movie Pitching 101:
DO NOT TELL YOUR WHOLE STORY.
Don't fucking do this. Nobody cares.
Your job is to MAKE them care, and the only way to do that is to string them along with short statements that leave questions in their mind that only you can answer.
Think of it like a movie trailer. If you tell the entire movie in the trailer, nobody has reason to see the movie, right? Same idea.
>>70729115
Well, it starts off in the cabin and the group are talking amongst themselves, while we as the audience know what the creatures are, they don't. For speculation I added a librarian who states that these creatures don't match any description of anything in literature, maybe someone else say he hasn't seen them in movies.
When the bitten person comes in they suspect nothing other than a survivor, who then slowly turns.
What I mean by divided is that the few people who have got bitten slowly develop the symptoms and the others put 2 +2 together and try to keep them away. They obviously turn and while a few have been killed, one of them tries to convince the lone survivor to get bit and "get it over with" as opposed to being eaten alive.
So yeah it's nowhere near finished but I hope I made the story more clear

In those cases, you pick out what you think is the most interesting element of the story, and base your pitch on that.
For example:
>A street magician who enlists the help of common thieves, performers and con-men to create a campaign of misinformation to aid the British royal navy during World War 2.
It's less about the story itself in those cases. It's entirely about how the story is framed and presented.

Because the story is entirely about survival, and the space program is ready-made shorthand for man's complete triumph over science and nature, i.e. the ultimate form of survival.
A quiet but colourful film about St. Thomas travelling to India

>>70728764
Sounds like a good, not to overblown thriller. Would watch 7/10.
Back in high-school me and my buddy actually shot a short movie that's kinda related.
>Two burglars break into a normal swedish countryhouse in the middle of the woods
>No footprints in the snow so the coast is clear.
>While looting the place and looking for valuables one burglar finds a false floor.
>Underneath is a small drop to a dark dirt cellar, in witch the burglars assume some valuables are stached.
>One of the burglar jumps down and get promptly maimed by a bear trap.
>Screaming follows and after a failed and painful attempt at dragging his companion up the trapped man ask for a flashlight to see the trap.
>Turning on the flashlight illuminates the cellar and reveal it's contents. In every corner lies bones and rusty chains.
>While flipping their collective shits a car is heard approaching.
>One burglar bails and runs for his life into the woods and onto a large frozen lake
>When his companions distant screams and pleas for mercy are suddenly silenced he falls to his knees and pukes
>The last shot of the short was of the still kneeling survivors shocked face that slowly zoomed out to show an out of focus figure steadily approaching on the frozen ice.
It took us a good 4 weeks to make just a 15 minute short, but damn if it wasn't worth it. Got my one and only A+ in film-science as well.

Go ahead. List me more instances of someone being shot and falling in slow motion while he describes the feeling. I'll wait.

In 1958, famous actresses Victoria Stanton and Juliette Lane engage in a illicit affair that could ruin their careers. To protect themselves from the persecution of Victoria's conservative husband, politician Anthony Stanton, who fears his wife's infidelity and homosexuality could ruin his political career, the two women decide to seduce Anthony's sullen private mechanic, Dobbs Lanton, to kill Anthony, but things spiral out of control when Dobbs reveals himself to be much more dangerous than it appears.

A boy falls in love with a girl.
Unable to confess, he is gifted with by a deus ex machina with the girl’s phone number. Never minding the strange area code, he immediately calls her, and is overjoyed to find out that she has a crush on him as well.
But, the next day, when he recounts the previous day’s confessions to the girl, she only looks at him with a perplexed expression. After some investigation, he finds out that the girl he called is not the same girl he fell in love with. In fact, she doesn’t exist in this universe at all. She is the girl’s alternate universe counterpart, who has fallen in love with the MC’s own AU self, who too is blissfully unaware of her crush.
Hijinks ensue as the two strike up a deal to give each other their darkest, most private secrets in order to equip the other with the weapons they need to conquer the heart of their other selves. While the two chase their respective loved ones, DRAMA ensues as they begin to fall in love with each other instead and question the NATURE of LOVE.

It's called: Pedal
Alright so a bunch of dumbass teenagers stumble into an ancient chinese curse that gives your hands conscience and removes them from your body.
The hands are viscious killers, kinda like Ash's evil hand from ED2.
The thing is that the curse passes from person to person.
Quickly itgets out of handand the whole town is a handless mess of people running from killer hands.
In the end it cuts to 5 years later, and all of humanity is getting ready with feet-cannons and other non-hand weapons to fight the incomming army of 16-billion hands.
Movie title: Small Penis
>Opening shot: water.
>We zoom out...
>Suddenly, a massive brown object flies into the water, splashing.

>As we continue to zoom out, we see that it is a fat man sitting on his filthy toilet.
>The bathroom is covered in filth, the mirror is broken.
>The man just sits there, looking down at his pathetic penis.

From another thread:
A dark comedy that uses the same plot device as Groundhog Day and Edge of Tomorrow - reliving the same day. But here's the catch: the protagonist is a failure loser NEET who lives in his parents basement. Every single day he just wakes up, browses the internet, comes up for food, goes back down, and his mom checks on him before he goes to bed. The dark comedy comes from the fact that he somehow gets stuck in a time loop that causes him to relive the same day, but he never even realizes it for years because his life is so uneventful.
