I'm working on a really bad movie I want to put together for my film editing class. It's going to be called "Brain War." It will star me and a friend who will play two guys who separately find a board game called "Brain Quest." We play it and get super brain powers. Then we battle each other to the death. I want it to have the worst plot imaginable and the worst dialogue anybody has ever heard. If anybody has any suggestions, feel free to let me know. This forum is a creative bunch.

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.

Consider that line in. And I've already done zombie movies. I love them to death. I've recently become much more infatuated with them. Incidentally, the remake of Dawn Of The Dead comes out today. I'll have to watch it after the Camper concert tonight. Maybe zombies would be fun to introduce in my movie about 9/10ths the way through it.

I had a great idea about a game show where if you lost you would actually be killed.

Could take Ebbs title for that...



Funny thing is, you just know there will be thousands of people still applying to be on the show (esp. if i do it in america

The remake isn't really a remake it's taking key elements from the story and the title and fucking around with everything. Don't make me get zombie snob on your ass, cos I can!

Plus if you add zombies remember, they're CORPSES not ATHLETES

I do realize that "remake" is very loosely phrased, as I've seen both. And I know that zombies are corpses, not athletes. However, since the movie is fictional, I won't get too upset if the dead people can run really fast, rather than stagger. That one scene in the parking garage where the legless zombie dropped off of the ceiling bugged me. But beyond that, I enjoyed the heightened excitement of fast moving zombies. Cheapened the quality of the suspense a bit, but in an MTV society I can understand why they chose to do so. That said, I'd like to put zombies in my bad movie. Maybe I can have them inconsistantly portrayed in it. That'd be fun.

"Crayons"
So a young boy gets a hold of a magic box of crayons. Whatever he draws becomes reality. He's mad at his dad one day so he draws his dad with a knife through his chest...meanwhile the dad is in the kitchen making a sandwich...the knife on the counter starts shaking. He realizes it and walks over to it...just for it to fly into his heart and kill him! BUAHAHA! The boy soon realizes that it was the picture he drew that caused it. He takes advantage of this by making his third grade teacher kill his bully in front of everyone. Etc. Etc...

Hey, you wanted bad so I gave you bad.

Woah dude! Firstly, MTV generation has ruined everything good, if it doesn't hyper-arouse our senses and get it's point accross in a series of short flashy images as to not lose the attention span of the fucking stupid dregs that predominate the demographics it's a no show, or it's ARTY and early zombie movies which are far cooler are not about fast scary flesh eaters the zombie is a metaphor for society as a whole and the slow paced....

ranting... sorry

No, ranting is fine. And I should have mentioned that I don't enjoy the MTV mindset. I was mentioning that it exists and that, from the filmmaker's point of view, it made sense to do it that way. I don't like the MTV-style. Their barrage of imagry reminds me of that scene in A Clockwork Orange, only people aren't being forced to watch it. They just don't know any better.

"The Seasnonally Employed Man"
TV Sitcom

So it's fall all right. And there's this guy who drives around to people's house asking them if he can rake their leaves from their yard all right.

First segement:
Guy raking the leaves.
Then he gets paid.
Then he puts the rake in the small, rusted pick up truck and drives around listening to Heavy Metal really loudly. The Metal is always Suicidal Tendencies too, the best metal band ever.

commercial

Second Segment:
Music in the truck is heavy metal. Driving around looking at all the piles of leaves along side the road. Heavy Metal continues. Guy beats the steering wheel and exlaims, "Why?"

commercial

Last Segment:
Guy returns home to his disgruntled pregnant girlfriend. He gets bitched at and then gets drunk. "Where the fuck is my dinner, bitch?" "Bitch," she throws lamp and shatteres it against the wall children heard crying, "We don't have enough money for dinner because your ass can't find enough leaves to rake."
Close up of guy standing on back porch smoking a sigarette, drinking beer and whiskey. "Man, that was one mighty big maple tree."

On next weeks show: Heavy Metal Playing
Guy finds big yard with lots of leaves and then drives around listening to Heavy Metal. He goes to Waffle House and gets caught flirting with a Waffle-Waitress by his wife, the waitress is her sister.

Just think about all the drama and action... wow, I should have kept this idea secret. I might have to delete this post.

Winter: Shoveling Snow
Spring: Landscaping
Summer: Mowing Lawns

LBF, i like it. in a "that's so bad it would be good" way.

there used to be a show in Northen California (on public access only i think) called "FISHMASTERS" that was basically these total stoner guys who would go fishing and drink beer. it was so fucking funny. they had silly ass little sketch pieces. like this one called "THAT GUY" which, was basically this guy. and there was this heavy metal theme song with the lyrics that just said "THAT GUY!.. THAT GUY!" and it would show him in different scenarios: drinking a beer. running through a field.

man, that was a great show.

i had an idea tonight for detective show about an inept private detective who incorrectly "solves" crimes, drawing (incorrect) conclusions from totally absurd, tenuous rationale. at the end of each episode an innocent person will be sent to jail for life or to the electric chair.

so, instead of a "who done it?" it's more of a "who didn't do it but will be accused of doing it and sent to the electric chair?".. catchy no?

it's kind of COLUMBO meets THE PINK PANTHER meets DEAD MAN WALKING.

Crispin Glover would be at the top of my wish list

what do you think?

Damn Floop, it appears that everyone in L.A. is a screenwriter just as everyone here in Guitar town is a country songwriter!

Yeah, I believe you got something there, Crispin Glover, the perfect bumbling, self-righteous [rent-a-] cop. Whose his love interest?

ok, how about this.... SENTENCED TO BE A BUTLER

This guy and I get into a car accident. My car's totaled. It's all his fault and now, he has absolutely no money. There is no way that he can pay me. So the judge decrees that he becomes my butler. He cooks my food, he cleans my house, he does all my shopping for me, you know, I'm walking around in one of those big neck collars. Once you see someone in those collars you start laughing immediately. I think it has real potential.
