i had a really crappy plot for my storyboard, i should have just plagiarized the hell out of something.

How about a girl meeting a Spanish speaking guy with a a big 'tasche, who she has a one night stand with, only to find her guitar stolen in the morning. So begins her quest to find her guitar.

there should be a massive climatic battle full of little CG men and horses, and then a really long anti-climatic epilogue afterwards

GepperRankins
04-23-2005, 02:36 PM
and then someone kisses and everybody stops what they're doing and cheers, like in real life

OK then:

Flashback: the guitar contains the plans for a new sort of miniaturized H-bomb, devised by Hitler's clone and stolen by a wacky duo of cops who had nothing in common at first, but ended up the best buddies in the world after getting the plans.
Nof course she suspects the Germans to be behind the theft, after did they not conquer France once more?

DarthInsinuate

lots of unnecessary close-ups and lots of shots from the can's point of view :wiggum:

I had plans of making one called "das filmkröhnig", the set was to be painted all in pink, everyone should wear nothing but hats, and blow soap-bubbles out of pipes.

'twas to be a critical analysis of contemporary society.

Never got the ending right though.

possibly, but it's pretty popular, running 6 pages, you betcha someone else will make a sequel, which completely ignores all the context of the original, and has cars driving up walls, big crotches, and nipples on body armour

I got an idea for a movie,
and it goes like this
(Check it out) It's about a boy who gets his finger caught
In a bottle of Mr. Pibb

And they go on adventures,
I think it could be big
Is it too soon to whisper Oscar?
Put a happy ending there and it'll write itself, I swear
All we need are some meetings and a lead

I got an idea for a movie,
It's about this guy
Who wished and wished 'til it came true,
And now this kid can fly

I got an idea for a movie,
and here's my pitch
I get a job and quit my band,
And you stop being a bitch

And we will have adventures,
Like the boy and his bottle did
Is it too soon to whisper Oscar?

Put a happy ending there and it'll write itself, I swear
All we need are some meetings and a lead
With a happy ending there this thing will write itself, I swear
All we need is some trick photography

I forgot one thing about the guy
Who gained the ability to fly
It was actually only for a foot or two
And only an inch or so high
