More Ideas, Good and Bad
From here via Crewless tweet.
Today I'm at Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital. Carting around family members. I've never been anywhere where the nurses yell at/complain to one another more than here. Holy cow this place is disfunctional.
Have I mentioned that I think I should make an Aliens-type picture? You know, crew on a starship has to land on some planet and an alien gets on board, etc.
We also need a "2012"-type end-of-the-world picture (again.)
It's gonna be like Aliens meets The Mod Squad. Actually, that's not such a bad idea. In space no one can hear you be that freakin' cool...
Oh, and... Why you should never pay for online dating. Furthermore, the New York Times tells you why you should exercise.

Who doesn't wanna make an Aliens movie, but everytime I think about it I know all it would be is a pale pale pale imitation of an incredible movie.
So then I just go watch that movie and realize I have never been more correct about anything.
I think you should make a monster movie about a guy in a mask who walks around with his pants down. Nobody knows what he wants because he's not making any sense.
hmm. i might have an idea for an aliens type movie that isn't quite an aliens type movie.
The trick with making a poor imitation of an Aliens movie is to figure out another cool John Carpenter movie you could mix it with. On our Alien Uprising picture it was Aliens meets Assault on Precinct 13. That made for a pretty good story.
So now we have Aliens meets... uh... well I think the "guy with no pants" story has run its course.
So, uh, Lindsey... what's an Aliens movie that isn't an Aliens movie? ;-)
i'll cobble a note together and shoot you an email drew.
scribbled note in your gmail
You know we don't have any money, right? ;-)
no matte painting artistes on staff? no green screen studio space? alas. i could write you out of millions if you had 'em.
Well we can set up a bluescreen but it's a matter of the incredible amount of time it takes to build backgrounds that's the problem! ;-0)
Two of the "official" Alien movies are pale imitations of an incredible movie. That said, no shame in aiming high.
Hmm... yeah, you're pretty much right about that. I actually liked alien IV. Aliens vs Predator is kind of stellar as a piece of junk.
true enough. aiming high is one thing, aiming possible is another.
How about 2012 as a contained thriller? Five people in a house or apartment, just trying to survive armageddon?
David Frey came up with two guys in an abandoned prison as a "Monster in the House" idea. If we can only figure out how that works it might be a cheap good way to go.
I'm about to deliver by Children of Men/Shawshank Redemption/Star Wars rip-off. Soon, I hope. And that is when I will my 2012 rip-off...
Have I told you about Save the Cat yet?
And aren't you supposed to be writing a zombie picture?
Save the Huh? Never heard of it.
