What movie do you want made? If you got a pitch meeting with a producer and a guaranteed green light, what would you say?

  • A “buddy cop” comedy movie starring Russell Crowe and Gerard Butler in which they’re firefighters who have to actually, physically fight the fires with their fists.

    • POV cave movie using go pros and whatnot. You can play off the claustrophobia where the main character dies in the end

    • Zombie movie but the zombie’s perspective. The whole life cycle: human to zombie to death. Play off the body transformation horror, the gore and the zombie’s instinct to survive

        Damn alright how bout a “I’m 14 and this is badass movie” where an airplane crash leaves an average man stranded in an island but heres the kicker the island was a military experiment testing area years ago so all the wild life has turned into a more berserk version of themselves

        • Wasn’t that the one with Tom Hanks and a cannibalistic volleyball? They had to trim it down for American audiences and changed most of the terror into “feel good”, but yeah, pretty sure that’s the one.

      Well they have very clearly run out of ideas and the internet has very clearly made that obvious too so who better to ask right?

      No they’re not. They have plenty of brilliant people with lots of creative ideas. The problem is that the suits would rather make the 20th sequel than take the tiniest bit of risk.

    What if we made a Star Trek movie, but with a smaller 50-100M budget so we can gear it towards existing Star Trek fans instead of hiring JJ Abrams to churn out another generic summer Blockbuster with a thin veneer of Star Trek branding.

    In this movie, there will be no violence and the ship won’t even fire its’ weapons. The script will be thought-provoking with a heavy focus on space and science interweaved with humanist philosophy where the crew overcome some sort of moral or ethical dilemma.

    In other words… a Star Trek movie, for fans of Star Trek movies, made in the style of the first Star Trek movies.

    Buddy movie where instead of becoming furious with his wife for cheating on him, the husband just becomes good pals with his wife’s boyfriend. Eventually the wife starts feeling left out as hijinks ensue. In a climactic scene, the boyfriend resists the wife’s temptations in order to help with the new business he and the husband have started together, which leads to the two guys stopping a mass shooter. The two become heroes and best friends forever. It turns out that the would be mass shooter is an ex of the wife who didn’t have a friend and just couldn’t deal.

        Not really going for a “woman, therefore bad” trope and I wouldn’t let the producers take it that way, as per the premise of the question. If I’m employing a trope, it would be “buddy good, even if he’s fucking your wife”. It’s a movie that puts friendship over toxic masculinity.
