As if we needed more proof that Hollywood is completely out of ideas, last night I saw an ad for Alien vs. Predator .
OK, I know a trend when I see it, and since Keanu doesn't seem to have too much lined up at the moment, I'm thinking maybe I could pitch a few ideas that might get him some work.
Neo vs. SiddharthaJust coming up with a plotline for this is a bit of zen in itself. One thing for sure is that the final product will inevitably be called "too talky" by a bunch of idiot critics.
Conor makes a big bet against The Sentinels and calls in a favor to his ol' buddy Shane to, um.....drop the ball. Shane refuses and Conor decides to kidnap him and take his place at the 50-yard line. Hilarity ensues.
Donnie Barksdale vs. David Allen Griffin
Tagline: "Hey! Time to Pick on Someone Your Own Size!"
Excellent Adventure Ted vs. Bogus Journey Ted
In a climactic scene rivaling Zoolander's "Walk Off", the Teds have a "Battle of the Air Guitars". Fingers fly as the contest goes on much longer than you could possibly imagine, ending only when Tod accidentally runs them both over with his dragster.
This one's still in the concept stage. I'm trying to figure out how to keep them both shirtless for the duration of the film.
ah, krix, talk about inspiring! i really love the Conor vs Shane thing. maybe Shane can get a real contract with (who the hell is the football team in Chicago??) ...and how to keep Johnny and Jack shirtless the entire film? it's set in a nudist colony! Johnny's working undercover and Jack doesn't know it, so when he goes there on vacation, they strike up a conversation based on the fact that everyone thinks they're twins (the haircuts are the only way anyone can tell them apart). hmmm, i think i like where this one's going. ;)

Posted by: lori on August 9, 2004 12:54 PMI'm liking these ideas! ;-)
I think Conor vs Shane is my favorite. Conor would of course have to be smoking on the field along with Nigel. I'm sure the 2 of them would manage to catch each other's uniforms on fire or something along that line. Ticky could be on the sidelines taking bets on whose uniform will burn the fastest! But then Bateman would probably run out on the field and take down both of them instantly putting out all fires! The possibilities are endless with this one! :-D
Though I must admit that a shirtless Johnny/Jack movie would be very interesting! 8-). Don't have to worry about the story, who needs a good plot when you've got those two guys! ;)
Thanks for the laugh Krix! :)
Side-splittingly hilarious, Krix!
OMG, you're funny!
Jack Traven joins the FBI and teams up with Johnny, from whom he was separated at birth, to search for the evil baby sellers that separated them. Fortunately for us this leads them to search the many islands of Tahiti, where coincidentally the baby sellers retired after leaving Columbus, Ohio. Clothing is optional so the wardrobe expenses will be minimal...
ROFLMAO!!...yep, it has become increasingly entertaining to have da Bears in a bull market ;-)
...Tahiti...*sigh*

Hilarious and gave me a needed laugh at work (yes I peeked).
Thanks as always, krix!

Aaaaaaaah, classic krix. I love it! :D
How about Jjaks vs. Scott?
Dunno about the story yet but Freddie= showgirl and Scotty= hustler. Could be something controversial...anybody ideas?

*Hee* I think I'm beginning to like the Johnny and Jack one the most, even though it's not even completely thought up yet!
Hmmm what about Chris from Permanent Record and Oh-no-i-can't-believe-I-forgot-the-name-of-the-character-from-river's-edge?
