Stemming from an email conversation with Vorlina today, through various convoluted and highly intellectual plateaus of discussion, we happened to brush upon the idea of what the pitch would be for Bruce Almighty 2 : The Fire Drill.
Since it's obvious that those straight to video classics that you see littering the bargain bin at Blockbuster must have come from somewhere, your task is to come up with a film that should really never, ever be made, then try and pitch it in as serious manner as possible.
Since I like a challenge, I'm gonna try the Fire Drill one...
* * * * *
Bruce Almighty 2 : The Fire Drill
While no longer having the power of The Almighty at his disposal, Bruce hillariously finds himself as the sole controller of the brand new Almighty 2000 Fire Alarm system which regulates the entire fire system for the Empire State Building after his attempt to phone in a fake fire alarm as a prank on a friend ends up saving lives.
Armed with the power of the entire sprinkler and alarm system, Bruce revels in his ability to conduct hillarious practical jokes on former employees who pushed him around...until until a prank goes painfully wrong, and Bruce must use all his knowledge, skill, and a little help from a few old friends to combat a 30 storey blaze...

Come on, who can't see that being made into a terrible feature film/
- Rich

Billy Madison 2 ******************************************** Adam Sandler returns in all his stupidity for Billy Madison 2. This time he's a teacher on the verge of being fired, so he decides to go back to acting really stupid until they fire him. However, when it see that he won't get fired he has to get his life back together, but in the end, he doesn't and he gets screwed, because that annoying little kid desrives it I say, HE DESIRVES IT!!! It would be a bad movie, but I had fun making the ending  |

Scary Movie 4! Featuring spoofs of Finding Nemo, The Passion, the LotR trilogy, Gigli, X-2, and, uh...
*pitcher glances at a random backissue Fangoria cover*
House of the Dead! Yeah!

Is anyone else reminded of Free Enterprise?
So, let me see if I understand you. This is a serious attempt to meld the sensibilities of Manhunter, Silence Of The Lambs and Seven with Generation "X" angst. In order to somehow parlay...
'70s nostalgia.
Oh and I have a sales pitch that never should have been made.
Stupid Exec #1: Ok here's what we're gonna do. We're gonna cancel Farscape and keep Stargate SG1.
Stupid Exec #2: Brilliant!
Sadly, I'm not creative enough to come up with my own movie pitch.

STAR WARS 2.5 - FOR THE LOVE OF ANAKIN
Haunted by the kiss Padmé never should have given him, a young Jedi can only hope that the kiss will not become a scar.
As the Clone Wars commence, young Jedi-Apprentice-Until-They-Know-He-Done-Got-Hitched Anakin Skywalker battles Count Dooku, Wal-Mart and severe acne outbreaks while utilizing a rhyming dictionary to compose love sonnets to his beloved. As “grumpy” Master Obi-Wan Kenobi watches helplessly, his young protégé moves ever closer to the Dark Side, descending on a slippery slope of vicious clichés that not even a lightsaber can cut through.
This movie is coarse, rough and irritating, but it gets everywhere!

Oh!
And the end sequence has to be Elvis singing 'You were always on my mind', With the audience cheering like mad with the deranged fan being put into the back of a paddy wagon.

There should be a bit about him going to see the Lord of the Rings.

Let's do a remake of "Un Chien Andalou" (1929). The first one was okay, but it left too much in the open that could really be clarified as a feature length film. This dark romantic comedy centers around two oddball lovers trying to pull their relationship together eight years after the girl (part being written with Angelina Jolie in mind) suffered an accident leaving her blind in one eye. The man (possibly Ray Liotta?) is a donkey farmer and freelance piano repairman who is prone to sudden acts of aggression. Also, he used to be in the clergy but had a crisis of faith after the aformentioned blinding accident. These two try to come to terms with each other and work out their problems despite some recent paranormal activity at their farm. Also starring RuPaul as the transvestite on a bicycle, and of course Matthew Broderick as the voice of their wise-cracking, Andalusian dog who teaches them how to laugh about love, all over again.

Hm. I'd switch RuPaul and Broderick, but otherwise, sounds like a hit!

I was referring to the recent "Good Boy" in which Broderick was the voice of a dog from outer space. Besides, he should have plenty of experience with animated, talking dogs: he's married to one.  Ohhhhhhhhhhhh snap. |
