Great ideas for movies!
Okay. Tarzan, Jane and Boy are swimming down this river and Tarzan says, "Shore!" So they swim to the bank and get out of the river and there is this Union soldier standing in front of a tent with his rifle and bayonet, straight out of the Civil War. And everybody is going, like, "Wow, this is wrong."

The soldier is confused and he keeps staring and smiling at Tarzan because he is, like, gay and stuff. Tarzan climbs up a tree to find some fruit and Jane tells the soldier that Boy is hungry.

The soldier goes around a tree and comes back with some biscuits and beans and Jane is all like, "Eeeewwwww," but boy starts eating it and is all like, "Timba maru, timba maru."



What's your good idea for a movie? :)

1. Timmy and Lassie are wandering down the road one day.
Timmy sees a squirrel and says, "Fetch, girl!" and Lassie runs off after the squirrel and falls into a well. Then Timmy leaves her there, the little shit, and after all the times she pulled him out of the well, too! :mad:

8. There's wine there, not the fevered sweat and tears of hopeless inadequacy
Or so I'm told.

10. I'm on it. There's no wine here. Only whine.
and a hint of embarrassing post-whoring. That could be my imagination, however.

I like pie.

13. Sean Connery is attacked by leprechauns.
He kicks at them violently - "Get away from me, you little bashtadsh!" - but they keep multiplying. He appeals to all his old friends for help, but the only one who comes through is the guy who played Felix Leiter in Thunderball, Rik Van Nutter. Rik and Sean battle the leprechauns valiantly, but they are overwhelmed and are bitten to death.

The End (a fashionable downer ending)

15. "Alias" meets "Field of Dreams"
Edited on Fri May-12-06 01:12 AM by Brigid
Jack is sound asleep one night when, for the third night in a row, a voice wakes him up saying, "If you build it, they will come." He wakes up, gets out of bed, and looks out his window. Instead of his own back yard, he sees a baseball field with a small grandstand.

"You gotta be kidding me," says Jack. "Who am I, Ray Kinsella?"

He turns away from the window to find a short man in 15th-century garb standing in his bedroom. He says he is Milo Rambaldi. He tells Jack he wants him to build a baseball field and stage a game between the CIA Cubs, composed of Jack and his co-workers, and another team composed of Sloane and various other international criminals like Irina Derevko and Anthony Geiger. They will be called the Mets. Rambaldi says that the winning team will receive a key to a storage shed where all of his manuscripts and inventions are stored, and the winners may use them as they choose. He says he is tired of people fighting and killing over them. Jack agrees.

The next day at the Joint Task Force, Jack tells his colleagues about the previous night's events. They all think he is crazy. Sydney, his daughter, asks him if he has been drinking again. But they choose positions, build the field, and practice. Rambaldi sends famous Negro League player Josh Gibson to manage the team. He also says that Ty Cobb will be managing the International Criminal Organization Mets.

The big day arrives. Two black vans pull up carrying Ty Cobb, Sloane, Irina, Geiger, Sark, and various other "Alias" villains. Curious neighbors fill the stands. Rambaldi is there too, having the time of his life. Francie is running a concession stand. At one point during the game, Jack is pitching to Irina and knocks her on her backside for digging in at the plate. Later, with Ty Cobb on third, Josh Gibson takes over as catcher. When Cobb tries to score, Gibson holds onto the ball when they collide and Cobb is out.

The game ends with a Cubs victory. Rambaldi hands Jack the key to the storage shed as promised. Jack agrees to see to it that Rambaldi's inventions and manuscripts are destroyed, which is what Rambaldi wants. Then, suddenly, the players, the field, Rambaldi, and everything else disappears. Jack wakes up to find himself in his own bed. What a dream, he thinks -- until he gets up to go to the bathroom and sees a key and a thank-you note from Rambaldi on his dresser.

18. There was this kid named George Bailey
Edited on Fri May-12-06 07:39 AM by sarge43
He saves his brother, Harry, from drowning. Years later Harry joins the Navy and saves his ship and the crew from drowning. One member of the crew returns home, marries this rich WASP princess (who will eventually morph into a gorgon, a sequel possibility here). They have a pack of brats. One of the brats becomes POTUS and fucks over the country, including letting a bunch of people in a major city drown. The film ends with one of those people yelling "Fuck you, George" as he goes down for the third time. Critics love the ambiguity.
