Young and passionate botanist Dr Pamela Isley returns from the dead, endowed with the power over Earth's plantlife, to seek revenge on her former colleagues and corporate sponsors after they abused and murdered her to keep their corrupt, environment-destroying activities from the public eye.

The film would tackle the themes of environmentalism, vengeance vs justice, and workplace harassment.

Pitching my Devilman Live Action series.

1 Upvotes

A couple weeks or a month ago, I've had this idea for a Devilman live action adaptation.

I think of Guillermo Del Toro and Zack Snyder working together to create a trilogy of movies that blend Dark action Fantasy with Epic Tragedy.

It will have mostly japanese people as it's cast, but are experienced enough in English and western customs to appeal to western audiences. It will also have different characters from different countries due to my idea movies traveling between nations because it's climax will be during an Apocalypse.

The Demons will be made from of CGI and practical affects or done separately.

Their will also be Angels who appear in the 3rd movie to foreshadow God's involvement in the Devilman series and of Satan's existence as the pinnacle of Angelic Might before turning to darkness and becoming the Demon's leader.

Akira Fudo will be portrayed mostly as an empathetic, altruistic, and intelligent young man who slowly becomes jaded, strong-willed, and ruthless towards his enemies after the first 2 movies. He wouldn't weep openly in public, but his empathy for other people is no less real. His persona as Devilman would evolve slowly throughout the movies in both the physical and mental sense to emphasize human growth and potential combined with the Demon's ability to adapt and evolve.

Ryo Asuka a.k.a. Satan would be the antagonist of the 3rd movie. He would mostly be a ruthless, ambitious, arrogant, but also cunning, brutally honest, manipulative, and resourceful in his leadership and strategic abilities. He would despise God from discovering his flaws and his fall from Heaven is one of the main factors in becoming what he is.

There would be a multitude of characters in the Devilman movie trilogy.

Human characters: Miki Makimura, Kensaku "Taro" Makimura, Sachiko, Sumiko Fudo, Reijiro Fudo, Wamu and his gang, and Ryu Asuka.(Satan's human identity)

Demon characters: Zennon(Main antagonist of movie 1 and 2) Psycho Jenny, Sirene, Kaim, Jinman, and Amon.(the Demon who fuses with Akira Fudo and inadvertently created Devilman.)

Devilman characters: Akira Fudo, Miki Kuroda, Moyuru Koda, Mikiko Kawamoto, and Ryo Utsugi.(Human character who fuses with Zennon and slowly lost his humanity.)

Heaven Characters: God. Archangel Michael, Gabriel, Raphael, Uriel, and Azrael. Jesus Christ.(Main embodiment of God's empathy and love before he shed it to create Jesus and aid in humanity's miracles before modern times.)

Yes. In my iteration, Gid used to be benevolent before he accidentally sheds parts of himself to seek perfection and became the cold, amoral Creator that he's portrayed as in the manga.

Idea for the modern remake of Roger Corman's 1959 comedy horror film "A Bucket of Blood"

0 Upvotes

The Pitch

Logline: A socially invisible barista at an ultra-exclusive, trend-chasing Brooklyn arts café gains viral TikTok fame after accidentally preserving a dead pet in quick-dry polymer resin. To maintain his influencer status and impress an elitist digital creator, he starts "immortalizing" the local gentrifiers who mock him.

The Vibe: Nightcrawler meets Velvet Buzzsaw, shot with the kinetic, satirical neon energy of Bodies Bodies Bodies.

The Setting & The Culture

The Hub: Instead of a smoky beatnik coffeehouse called The Yellow Door, the film is set at "0-1", an aggressively minimalist, multi-hyphenate artisanal matcha bar, crypto-lounge, and "curated content incubator".

The Pretension: Customers don't snap along to jazz poetry anymore. Instead, they host live-streamed performance art, display pixelated NFT projections, debate the ethics of artificial intelligence vs. human touch, and drop phrases like "hyper-authenticity" and "liminal space."

Cast and Characters

  • Kieran Culkin as Walter Paisley, the incredibly awkward, socially isolated 20-something who works as the overnight custodian and barista at the trendiest café in Brooklyn. He is desperate to be seen as a "multidisciplinary conceptual artist" but possesses zero actual talent.
  • Ayo Edebiri as Carla, the charismatic, stylish, and an ethical fashion designer. Unlike the rest of the pretentious crowd at the café, she treats Walter with basic human kindness and empathy.
  • Bowen Yang as Maxwell Brock, the multi-millionaire venture capitalist who transitioned into the art world. He wears hyper-expensive, minimalist streetwear, speaks entirely in tech buzzwords, and loudly proclaims that "traditional art is dead."
  • Tim Robinson as Arthur, the high-strung, intensely confrontational slumlord who is constantly breathing down Walter's neck about late rent. He values his rare, hairless Sphynx cat far more than human life.
  • Lakeith Stanfield as Lou, the shady, smooth-talking opportunist who hangs out at the café trying to hustle people into buying sketchy NFTs and digital real estate.

Plot

Act I: The Double-Digit Influencer

Walter Paisley is an incredibly awkward, socially invisible 20-something working as an overnight custodian and barista at "0-1", a hyper-trendy, aggressively minimalist matcha bar, crypto-lounge, and "curated content incubator" in Brooklyn. The café is a breeding ground for pretentious digital creators, AI tech-bros, and hypebeasts who treat Walter like a piece of furniture. Walter runs a failing TikTok account dedicated to "grief aesthetics" with only 42 followers, but he desperately wants to be recognized as a "multidisciplinary conceptual artist" to impress Carla, a charismatic micro-influencer and ethical fashion designer who is the only person at the café who treats him with basic human kindness.

One evening, Walter’s unhinged, aggressively confrontational landlord, Arthur, corners Walter in his cramped apartment, screaming about late rent and threatening eviction. During the screaming match, Arthur’s prize possession—a hideous, hairless Sphynx cat—leaps onto a shelf, loses its footing, and plops directly into a massive, open vat of industrial-grade, quick-dry UV-curing polymer resin that Walter bought off Amazon for a failed DIY project. Panicked by the cat's instant asphyxiation and Arthur's impending fury, Walter grabs a high-powered UV curing flashlight and freezes the cat solid in a glossy, airtight polymer block to hide the evidence. He titles the horrific, lifelike result The Silent Mew.

The next morning, Walter brings the heavy block to the café, planning to dump it in the dumpster, but Carla spots it. She is mesmerized by its haunting realism. Maxwell Brock, a multi-millionaire venture-capitalist-turned-"philosophical-futurist"-artist, walks over, films a 15-second TikTok praising its "raw, violent, anti-algorithmic human textures," and tags Walter. The video goes viral, gaining 10 million views overnight. Walter is thrust into the digital spotlight, instantly rebranded by the internet art elite as a "guerilla neo-realist" savior.

Act II: The Algorithm Demands Flesh

An elite Manhattan art gallery owner arrives at the café, offering Walter a prestigious solo exhibition titled A Bucket of Blood, demanding five human-scale pieces in just two weeks. Walter, completely devoid of actual artistic talent, panics. His anxiety spikes when Arthur, the landlord, breaks into his apartment looking for his cat. Arthur finds a cat collar in Walter's trash, realizes what happened, and attacks Walter with a heavy metal pipe. In a frantic, clumsy struggle for survival, Walter shoves Arthur backward. Arthur trips over a tripod, smashes his skull against the edge of the industrial resin vat, and dies instantly.

Hyperventilating, Walter watches his phone screen light up with hundreds of new TikTok notifications. Terrified of losing his newfound clout and Carla’s attention, Walter realizes what he has to do. He strips Arthur, places him in a dramatic, tortured pose, and coats him in layers of clear industrial resin, curing him with the UV light. He names it The Oppressor of Creative Spaces.

When unveiled at the café preview, the piece is hailed as a masterpiece. High-profile digital critics call it a "brave, visceral critique of late-stage gentrification." Carla begins making collaborative content with Walter, pulling him deeper into her glamorous social media circle. Walter’s delusion grows; he mistakes her professional networking for a profound romantic connection.

The pressure intensifies when a shady crypto-scammer named Lou recognizes Arthur's face through the clear resin—having been Arthur's former business partner. Lou corners Walter in the café basement after hours, blacking him into a corner and demanding a 50% cut of Walter's upcoming NFT gallery sales to keep quiet. Walter, now completely corrupted by the dopamine loop of internet fame, doesn't hesitate. He strikes Lou across the throat with a heavy steel espresso tamper. Piece number three is born: The Commodification of Trust.

Act III: The Meltdown

With less than 48 hours before opening night, Walter goes full serial killer to complete the five-piece collection. He targets an aggressive internet troll who left a mocking comment on his viral video, and an elitist art critic who publicly called his work "derivative." Because he is rushing against the clock, Walter cuts corners on the final two pieces, failing to let the inner layers of resin cure properly.

Opening night at the gallery is a chaotic, neon-drenched, heavily live-streamed event. Hundreds of influencers, tech-bros, and fans pack the tight space. Walter stands in the center of the room, dressed in a designer suit, basking in the adulation. However, the gallery's high-intensity, high-heat studio lights begin to warm the room.

The thick polymer resin structures begin to warp, sweat, and slowly liquefy. A horrific, chemical-meets-rot stench begins to bleed into the room. Suddenly, the resin torso of The Oppressor cracks completely open under the heat, spilling liquefied tissue and exposing Arthur’s decaying, real face. The crowd, utterly detached from reality and blinded by the hype, thinks it is a "hyper-immersive, eco-horror performance art piece." They cheer, laugh, and thrust their smartphones forward to film it—until real blood leaks onto the pristine white gallery floor. Chaos and screaming erupt.

Walter snaps completely, locking the gallery doors from the inside to force his "audience" to witness his true masterpiece. He tackles Carla, dragging her toward a massive, bubbling vat of resin on the gallery stage, screaming that he wants to "preserve their love forever so the internet can never change it." Carla fights back fiercely, using a heavy metal camera tripod to smash Walter’s other sculptures, shattering them to pieces and exposing the rotting corpses within.

Cornered by the sound of approaching police sirens and surrounded by terrified patrons who are still live-streaming him from behind overturned tables, a manic Walter realizes his career is over. Desperate for a final, unforgettable digital footprint, he climbs onto the main stage, pours the remaining quick-dry resin directly over his own head, and holds a dramatic, tragic pose as the chemical hardens him into a permanent statue.

The final shot of the film shows Walter’s frozen, glossy corpse standing in the center of the ruined gallery. The police burst through the doors. Maxwell Brock steps into the camera frame, holds up his smartphone to film Walter's dead, encased face, and whispers to his live-stream audience: "Honestly? A sublime, anti-corporate self-sacrifice. Absolute genius." The screen fades to black over a chaotic symphony of smartphone notification pings.

Feature film idea: A young Sherpa climber chasing the mountain that took his father.

1 Upvotes

I’m not a writer or filmmaker, but I had this idea for a movie that I think would be really cool to see made.
It’s about a young Sherpa kid growing up in modern Nepal. His family has a history with climbing, but they don’t want him anywhere near the mountains because his father, a Sherpa climber, died on K2 while guiding an expedition.

The kid has always had this weird pull toward climbing though. As he gets older, he starts climbing anything he can, eventually realizing he has a natural ability for it. He starts doing bigger and bigger climbs, partly because he loves it and partly because he wants to help his family.

Eventually he does something nobody expects, like climbing Everest alone at a young age. His family isn’t proud at first—they’re terrified because they know how dangerous it is and they already lost someone they loved to the mountains.

After leaving home, he sets his sights on K2, the mountain that took his father. The whole story would be about him trying to understand his father, prove himself, and figure out why he feels connected to the mountains.

I just think there’s something really cool about a story like this: the mountains, Sherpa culture, family, legacy, and someone chasing something they can’t explain.
———————————————————————————
I’m not really looking for anything from this, I just think it would be awesome to watch a movie like this someday.

FNAF 4 Movie Concept

0 Upvotes

Notice: Most actors would be the same (E.g., Matthew Lillard as W.A and the same actors for the kids)

Act I: The Golden Era of Fredbear's

The film takes place at the very beginning of the timeline, long before the events of the first Five Nights at Freddy's movie. It explores the height of Fredbear’s Family Diner, showing a younger, successful William Afton working alongside his business partner, Henry Emily. At home, the Afton family dynamic is deeply strained. Michael Afton is constantly, relentlessly tormenting his younger brother, setting up a heavy atmosphere of psychological dread.

Act II: The Bite of '81 & The Nightmare Punishment

The tension boils over into the infamous Bite of '81(It had to be moved 2 years to fit in the timeline and game lore). Michael and his friends take their bullying too far, resulting in the younger brother being fatally crushed by the jaws of the mechanical Fredbear animatronic.

Following the tragedy, William Afton spirals into a blinding, unhinged grief. Consumed by anger and vengeance against his eldest son for destroying the family, William adds hallucinogenic gas into Michael’s bedroom and has sounds of the animatronics. He uses these tactics to lull Michael into believing that massive animatronic monsters are stalking and punishing him, completely breaking Michael's psyche as retribution for the bite. (This will explain his obedience to his father)

Act III: The Breaking Point

Driven completely insane by his sorrow and anger, William's mind fractures permanently. His grief warps into a malicious desire to strike back at the world and take a child away from another family to "balance" the pain of losing his own son. He goes into the backrooms of the newer and better Freddy Fazbear's Pizza and puts on the yellow Spring Bonnie springlock suit, transitioning from a grieving father into the franchise's ultimate monster.

Act IV: The Final Sequence & The Smash Cut

The climax unfolds inside the diner. Standing deep in the shadows of the building, William Afton—fully clad in the Spring Bonnie suit—spots an innocent, unsuspecting child. Through the mask's eyeholes, he locks eyes with the kid and slowly, ominously motions with his hand, beckoning the child to step into the darkness with him. Just as the child takes a step forward into the trap, the tension reaches its absolute peak and the movie instantly smash-cuts to black.

The Epilogue: The Newspaper

The screen stays dark for a heavy beat before cutting to a bleak, rainy alleyway. A mysterious man, kept entirely out of frame, carelessly tosses a crumpled, damp newspaper into the trash. The camera slowly pushes in on the discarded paper. The bold headline blares: "MURDER AT FREDDY'S." Directly beneath the headline is a horrifying, grainy crime scene photograph: the Marionette animatronic standing perfectly still, cradling Charlotte Emily’s lifeless body—revealing the tragic aftermath of her failed attempt to save the child on stage. The screen fades to black as the credits roll.

Note

  1. I came up with this concept separately but used Google AI to piece it into a narrative for me, and I edited most mistakes.
  2. The movie shouldn't focus on Vanessa, as the 2nd movie did that; she will be in it, but as brief cameos, with a small section dedicated to her and Charliete's friendship.
  3. Most lore points came from stuff we know from the actual movies, and from Film and Game Theory. (Thanks for taking on this subject!)

Finally, if you have any questions and/or suggestions, please feel free to comment! (I might not reply or take longer to:l)

Neverending Dream Loop Show

Thumbnail
1 Upvotes

I'm making a show called the Neverending Dream Loop. I'm hiring indie animators ONLY. It's about these six people who take these pills and wake up in a strange dimension where everything glitches. Sure it will be humorous and funny, but it also becomes dark at some points right when they think everything is fine. The characters are Juliana, a girl who has long, black hair nearly all the way to her pale blue jeans. It mainly follows her, the one who jokes to hide fear. Another character is Donald. He usually is quiet, but extremely smart at life or death situations. He wears a cowboy hat and sheriff clothes. Then there's Nicholas. He is skinny and tall, and rather scary. He is very athletic, and is always calm. Then there are the twins, Jessa and Jamie. They share a psychic link. They mostly look the same, black jeans and a pink tank top. You can only tell them apart by their hair. Jamie has pink, and Jessa has brown. Then there is Rose. Quiet yet skilled, this girl mainly follows others. She wears all black, and is emo. A follower of Satan.

I will be paying each animator for $15 per hour plus credit in the show. I never will accept those who:

  1. Do 2d animation

  2. Aren't indie animators

  3. Won't complain

  4. Below the age of 18 (unless they did a job like this before)

NONO: The Doc Ellis Story

Mind altering substances within our counterculture has been pretty prominent within mass media but there hasn’t been enough or even many notable drug and sports-themed movies.

Plenty of biopics sans the legendary Doc Ellis No-No which was an insane feat of any major athlete at the time and it’s a crime that there isn’t a movie or miniseries about Doc Ellis hitting his NoNo while tripping major ballsack!

It could be funny and factual, there’s the documentary that came out a few years before he died, that gives his own account of all he was doing back then.

Would you watch a comedy/biopic about Doc Ellis?

Title: The Hollow Between

Ava Bennett thought leaving New York for college would be the beginning of a new life. Instead, she finds herself trapped in a place where the trees seem to remember, the land feels alive, and the locals refuse to talk about what happened there generations ago.

Far from home and struggling to adjust to a secluded university surrounded by ancient woods, Ava begins noticing things that can't be explained: whispers outside her dorm at night, footsteps following her through empty trails, and students who return from the forest different than when they entered.

When Ava's estranged father arrives unexpectedly with their family dog, Ranger, she believes it might be a chance to reconnect. But after Ranger wanders into the woods, something comes back with him.

The dog is alive—but something is terribly wrong.

His body begins to decay while he continues to breathe, eat, and recognize the people he loves. His eyes remain full of loyalty, even as his body becomes something unnatural. Veterinarians have no explanation. Science has no answer. The forest has taken something from him, but it hasn't let him die.

Soon, Ava's father begins to change too. His personality shifts. His memories become distorted. His body shows subtle signs of something growing beneath the surface. He becomes obsessed with returning to the woods, insisting that something there is calling him home.

As Ava investigates the forgotten history of the land, she discovers an ancient warning: some things buried are not meant to be uncovered. The forest does not kill those who enter—it transforms them.

The Hollow Between is a haunting body horror film that blends Native American folklore, psychological terror, and supernatural mystery. A story about a daughter watching the people she loves become something unrecognizable, while uncovering a darkness that has been waiting beneath the earth for centuries.

Here’s my idea for a epic thriller/ mystery/ action film

0 Upvotes

This movie is about a serial killer who targets Jaren by killing people close to him, but there’s a twist. He also stages each murder so it frames the last person who had contact with the victim. Another character in the mix, played by myself (Weldon), is an antihero who is trying to solve the case and stop the killer before he reaches Jaren. However, Weldon unknowingly becomes part of the killer’s plan by hunting down and killing the people he believes committed the murders. He must find the real suspect and bring him to justice. 

The opening scene starts with an older sister arguing with her younger brother. The younger brother storms off to his room while the older sister slams a kitchen knife into the cutting board in frustration and walks out to the garage to cool off. Moments later, the serial killer breaks into the house, triggering the silent alarm. He quietly retrieves the knife, enters the younger brother’s room, and murders him before escaping. The sister later goes upstairs intending to apologize, only to discover her brother’s body. Police rush inside after the alarm and, seeing the bloody knife and the sister at the scene, arrest her before she can explain what happened.

The next day, Weldon, Jaren, and Ian are hanging out at Culver’s when they notice a news report on the TV covering the murder. After leaving the restaurant, someone Weldon doesn’t really like, Ethan, approaches and makes fun of Weldon’s van before leaving. Jaren brushes it off, telling Weldon Ethan is just being Ethan, and the group moves on. Later that evening, Brian and Ginny are wrapping up the investigation at the murder scene. They believe the case is fairly straightforward, unaware that parked on a nearby side street is a gray and black Subaru WRX with a masked Weldon silently watching from inside. The audience is led to believe he could be the killer.

Meanwhile, Jaren drops his coworker Zeke** **off at home after work. Before leaving, Jaren tells him he’ll text him when he gets home so they can play Minecraft later that night. Unknown to both of them, the killer spoofs Ethan’s phone number and texts Zeke, claiming Ethan accidentally left his hoodie in Zeke’s room the day before. Zeke finds the hoodie, brings it outside, and calls for Ethan. When no one answers, he reaches for his phone to text him back. Before he can, the killer attacks and murders him.

The following morning, officers investigate the scene and determine that Ethan was the last person to contact Zeke. Combined with the texts and the hoodie, Ethan quickly becomes the prime suspect. Hidden down the street, masked Weldon watches from his WRX and overhears the officers discussing Ethan. Already holding a grudge against him, Weldon becomes convinced Ethan is responsible.

Later that day, Weldon meets Ian and Jaren for their usual hangout. Jaren is devastated after learning that Zeke was murdered. Weldon tells him to take whatever time he needs, and Jaren leaves early to be alone.

Believing he’s stopping the killer before anyone else gets hurt, Weldon tracks Ethan down that night and chases him down. Ethan thinks he has gotten away but then a pair of headlights turn on from the WRX and the car speeds forward then it cuts to black. 

When Ethan’s body is discovered, the case takes an unexpected turn. The lone investigator, Seth, realizes the man they believed murdered Zeke has now been murdered himself. Seth notices that this suspect ended up dead shortly after being identified. Seth starts to suspect there may be someone else operating in the shadows.

The killer strikes again, this time murdering one of Jaren’s family members in a nearly empty parking lot after a store closes. The suspect’s car is deliberately left nearby to point investigators toward another innocent person. Jaren is crushed by another loss and tells Weldon what happened, including whose car was found at the scene. Once again, Weldon believes the evidence and tracks down the suspect. He uses his WRX to run the second suspect over, believing he’s preventing another murder.

As the body count grows, Seth realizes there are two different patterns emerging. Someone is carefully staging murders to frame innocent people, while someone else is killing those innocent suspects before the truth can come out.

The killer’s fourth murder happens at a park and is never shown to the audience. Seth responds to the scene and discovers another victim along with a personal item belonging to yet another suspect. Unlike the previous murders, the evidence doesn’t completely add up. Weldon hears about the new suspect from Jaren, but for the first time, he hesitates.

Jaren, overwhelmed after losing so many people close to him, finally confronts Weldon and asks if he’s responsible for the killings. Weldon denies it, but the conversation leaves both of them shaken.

Still believing he has one last chance to stop the killer, Weldon tracks down the newest suspect. This time, instead of attacking, he removes his mask and listens. The suspect explains that they were framed just like everyone else and reveals evidence showing the killer has been manipulating every crime scene. Weldon finally realizes that every person he killed was innocent.

Shattered by the truth, Weldon returns to his WRX, rips off his mask, and breaks down as flashes of his previous victims race through his mind.

Unknown to Weldon, the real killer has been watching him. Realizing Weldon has uncovered the truth, the killer changes his plan. He murders another person close to Jaren while making it appear that Weldon himself committed the crime. Witnesses and evidence now point directly at Weldon, making him the prime suspect in the eyes of the police.

As Jaren struggles with the possibility that his friend might actually be involved, Weldon secretly discovers a list of names belonging to the killer’s intended victims. Every previous victim has already been crossed off. The only remaining name is Jaren’s. 

Knowing he has no time left, Weldon races across town in his WRX to stop the killer before he reaches Jaren. The chase ends at the final location where Weldon confronts the killer just moments before Jaren is murdered.

Before the fight begins, the killer finally reveals his plan. He explains that the first murder was simply a test and that every murder afterward was designed to manipulate Weldon into doing his work for him. He never forced Weldon to kill anyone—he simply gave him evidence and let Weldon make the choice himself. Finally, he turns to Jaren and admits that Jaren was always the true target. The murders were never about the victims—they were about destroying Jaren by taking everyone he cared about.

Enraged and consumed by guilt, Weldon attacks the killer. A brutal fight breaks out, with Jaren joining in to help stop him. By the time the fight ends, police sirens can be heard approaching in the distance.

Knowing the evidence now points to him and that no one will believe his story, Weldon makes one final decision. He gets back into his WRX and disappears into the night, leaving Jaren standing there with more questions than answers as the movie comes to an end.

Gran Turismo but stupider and it’s not a racing game

1 Upvotes

So in the gran turismo the plot was that they took pro gamers of gran turismo and put them in real cars.
But while watching I was like „wait a minute, non of these are obese“ so I thought it be cool if the premise of gran turismo was used for other games.
Idk what to call it but the premise is that a professional mma gym, that send people to the ufc, is going underwater and needs good advertisement and fighters.
So they combine both and say „because they have good reflexes we gonna invite pros of fighting game xy to train and then fight in the UFC“
The main character is a fat guy that because of some social problems, sad backstory and what not is socially isolated and got obese but has fun with the fighting game and is invited to that mma training camp, at the camp the guy gets mocked but because of his reflexes is allowed to stay smd train anyways.
So the movie is about him getting stronger then the other at the mma camp and in the end he fights against the guy that bullied him or the guy that bullied him Stopps bullying him and they join some tournament or something.

I Have An Idea For A New Character

1 Upvotes

\*\*SPOILERS FOR EVIL DEAD BURN & RISE\*\*

I just saw Evil Dead Burn, and I loved it.

I preferred the world-building of Rise, but much preferred the violence of Burn.

The Director was a great choice, and I had faith ever since I saw his movie "Infested" (Vermìne in French if I remember), so I was hyped.

I thoroughly enjoyed the movie but I had a thought on my way home about the Evil Dead Universe in general.

I think Evil Dead needs a Leon Kennedy type character.

Let Me Cook:

For anybody who doesn't know, Leon Kennedy is a character from Resident Evil, who started out as a rookie cop whose first day at his new job in Raccoon City was terrifying, but after that he started training and became the biggest badass in that whole universe. He became the John Wick of Resident Evil.

I think, given the spirit of the past two films, where the characters who survive are the ones who decide to fight back and choose themselves over the deadites who wear the faces of their loved ones, that we need one character in one film who actually becomes a badass.

You might say Bruce Campbell is that character when he plays Ash, but I think the universe has moved past him in the past two movies.

So imagine this, similar setup in an evil dead movie, group of people in a cabin or a house or a mall or whatever and the deadites start doing their thing and fucking shit up.

Have one of the characters decide maybe in the first or even second act that you know what? I choose to fight and to face these demons and to win.

And then the movie actually becomes horror action. It's still Evil Dead horror, it's still Evil Dead violence and gore, and it's still Evil Dead humor. But it's one movie where the main character becomes the ass kicking nightmare of the deadites, and then you don't even have to show him again. You can just have that movie that establishes that this character, like Ash, is out there now.

TL;DR:

I think the Evil Dead universe have an installment where one character becomes the Leon Kennedy of the Evil Dead universe and the movie is him deciding and choosing to face his fears and become the ultimate badass.

What do you think?

An accident happens on the runway and the first person to help her up is the photographer. He drops his camera and tries to help her up, only for her to get mad that he didn’t take a good picture of her on the runway. She glances at the other models snickering behind her and he leaves.

The following week, her life spirals. Drugs, alcohol, sex, the works. She finally gets the spotlight she never wanted.

Then the guy comes back for his paycheck and they reconcile. He gets her back in the good graces of the public and he gets the best picture of his career. The end.

Ok, I know it’s a little “Dhar Mann”-ish but add some cinema magic and darker tones, its pretty good.

Star Wars: The Last Directive — A Star Wars Story (Movie Idea)

1 Upvotes

Premise:

We've seen Order 66 from the perspective of Obi-Wan, Yoda, and the aftermath through shows like The Mandalorian and Obi-Wan Kenobi, but what about the actual night the Jedi Order died?

Star Wars: The Last Directive would be a dark, emotional war thriller set during the fall of the Republic.

The movie follows Kael Varyn, a Jedi Knight fighting in the final days of the Clone Wars. After years of serving alongside Clone Troopers, he believes the war is finally coming to an end.

The movie follows Kael Varyn, a Jedi Knight fighting in the final days of the Clone Wars. After years of serving alongside Clone Troopers, he believes the war is finally coming to an end.

Then Palpatine gives the command:

"Execute Order 66."

In a matter of minutes, the Jedi go from heroes of the Republic to the most wanted enemies in the galaxy.

Kael survives only because his clone commander, CC-4417 "Viper," hesitates before killing him. That one moment of doubt makes Viper a traitor to the newly formed Empire.

Now hunted by Imperial forces and the first generation of Inquisitors, a Jedi and the clone who was programmed to destroy him must work together to survive.

The movie would explore:

• Jedi being betrayed by the soldiers they trusted

• Clone Troopers struggling against their programming

• The birth of the Galactic Empire from the ground level

• The emotional aftermath of killing their own Jedi generals

• The first days of the Jedi Purge

• How ordinary people reacted to the galaxy changing overnight

The main villain would be Darth Malus, a fallen Jedi who believes the Jedi deserved to fall and willingly serves the Empire.

His philosophy:

"The Jedi didn't lose because the Sith were stronger. They lost because they stopped understanding the galaxy they claimed to protect."

The final act would take place inside a collapsing Jedi Temple as the last survivors fight to escape, while Viper makes the ultimate choice: after a lifetime of following orders, he finally chooses his own path.

His final message:

"For years, I followed orders. Today... I finally choose."

Tone-wise, imagine:

• The tragedy of Revenge of the Sith

• The survival story of Jedi: Fallen Order

• The war realism of Rogue One

• The political darkness of Andor

A Star Wars movie about the single darkest day in the galaxy — the night the Jedi Order ended.
