There used to be a law that said that a baby could not leave the hospital if it had not yet been named. I want to do a television series about all the babies in hospitals whose mothers died in childbirth with out naming thier children, about them as nameless adults who are not allowed to leave the hospital and have spent their entire lives in the hospital, maybe focusing on one guy, and how he interacts and changes the lives of the doctors and patients he meets in the waiting rooms. Kind of like the Terminal, but with terminal people.

Kathryn's idea for the show doesn't belong in this thread because it's not a "bad" (or even "le bad") idea, it's genius. If "That 70s Show" is considered good comedy, then this would be one of the best things on tv. And I look damn sexy in a parka. (Tre, what's snobby brit for 'parka'?).

How about a movie about global warming? I was thinking we could draw people in with actors such as Dennis Quaid and that kid from Donnie Darko. That should get people into the theatre. Once theyr'e in there who cares? Just fill the movie with special effects and bad dialogue. We'll even throw in a ridiculous "father rescues son scene" at the end where everyone in the room wears goofy but understanding grins.
Yes! It will piss off millions of intelligent people the world over!
HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Well, it doesn't have to be snobby brit. It seems things are either some old fashioned "snobby brit" thing (ie. 'bathing costume' or 'trousers') or some ridiculous cutesy-poo thing (ie. 'sunnies' or 'mackers'). So correct me in whatever language it is you DO speak Tre, what do YOU call a parka? (And if you call it parka, feel free to throw some sarcastic line at me and totally ruin my day).


And floop, answer withheld.

How about drama where each week b-list celebrities get on a nuclear train and travel across the country. During the trip we would see 4 various stories where 1 is funny, 1 is gripping, and 2 are love stories. To bad Scatman Crothers is dead; he would have been perfect as the futuristic Pullman Porter.

I was about to say a new reality TV show - drop celebrities out of a plane. Then some vague memory came back to me that it's actually already been done.
Exciting times.

Do you know why MC Hammer is called MC Hammer? Because he a bat boy for some Major League Team (I think in the Bay Area) and the players said he looked like Hank Aaron (Hammering Hank Aaron). See, TV is educational.

ahahaha KSR that's the Surreal Life.
I actually watched it because these people are so washed up that its funny. The next one had Ron Jeremy, Tammy Faye Baker, Vanilla Ice, Poncho, some chick from Baywatch and some other reality tv chick. That's funny too.

Frankly, I sat transfixed for a few moments before i came to...realizing with a start that I really was watching this.

Maybe we could combine this program with cheesey's idea and take all cast members and just....throw em out of a plane.
That'd be grrrreat.

I can't really remember, I just have this hazy recollection. I think they threw Cheryl Baker out of a plane, which is always a good thing.

Funny you should say that. A guy that tried to tell me it was necessary to go into iraq because of 9/11 told me to rent it (the day after tomorrow).

Off topic: A friend of mine tried to tell me it's good that we've done what we have to Iraq because all the terrorists are going there and we have them all in one spot to fight them.
Ha...ha..ha..HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA... COUGH WEEZ..HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
God help us.

Now THAT'S a bad movie, KOK: there's this country where the government,
with the help of the media, has brainwashed the citizenry into believing
that a certain group of people are bad and that the laws must be changed
so that the government can hunt down those people, both at home and abroad. But it's not Germany in the 1930s...

A 3 show series about how a man sees the world in his mind.
Images, colors, frames distorted to match his vision of the world.
3 shows, one for youth, one for mid life, one for old age and death.

The tone should be tragically humorous.

I'd say it'd look something like Van Gogh and Picasso combined.
People and objects would change forms and shapes and colors
as the movie progresses to reflect changing life views along with
the coloration added by short term emotions. Some changes gradual some
dramatic.
