This.

I'm working on a novel and want to convert it to a screenplay at some point. Actually three if you count the projects on the backburner.

But I'll spit one out that I don't care about:

Not really a biopic, but I have wanted to do a movie about a guy who wants to write a biopic about Edgar Allan Poe, and who in turn goes somewhat crazy and turns into a modern day Poe. Drunk, penniless, but he does finish his screenplay.

No, I know, hence the "I don't care about this idea"

It's too trendy and would probably take itself way too seriously if I wrote it. Although I did have some great dialog exchanges between the main character and various Poe characters. I wrote up a quick treatment for it a few years ago.

And all of my movies start with Panda Bear - Bros. as the opening song. No, it won't get old.

A Shakespearean Tragedy based on the Life of Benny Hill!!!
A even better idea make it a musical Shakespearean Tragedy on the life of Benny Hill.

Okay, check this out.

Adam Sandler right. He meets this chick and he falls in love with her right? But it turns out, she is a billy goat.

So an astronaut and his crew are flying through space in a deep state of hiberation. They awaken to a horrible crash landing on a strange new planet. This is a planet they have never seen before. Then they encounter the residents of this planet, but the thing about these residents is that their walking talking apes and humans are their slaves. The lead astronaut begins his struggle to escape this planet and even finds an intriguing woman companion on this planet occupied by apes. In the end the astronaut discovering the shocking truth about this planet. The planet was actually earth all along. He had traveled into the future through space arriving in the future to his very own planet now ruled by apes.

I call it..World of the Primates.


This is a great idea, no kidding. Think about the action figure market afterwords to. Kids can play with these apes and such. I love it.

Hmm..yea thanks, I like your style man. Casting would be important here too. Would have to be a Charlton Heston-esque actor for the lead.

I'll put one idea out there.

If I were to make a movie, I would probably have the theme of something religious. The movie would be about a man, with a destiny to prevent a epidemic coming into the world. The man would be from the future and sent into the past, his mission would be to prevent a scientist from creating a new blood trait that could stop certain diseases from spreading into the world. These diseases would kill human beings at a faster rate than any other disease eating the immune system. The Movie would take place in the year 2010 and the Main character would be from the year 2012, where the so called end of the world has actually happened. The so called Epidemic would have started to spread 2 years before the year 2012, but the disease would be released almost 10 years ago when he was a young scientist working at Phoenix University in Washington. While in the other side, there would be a man sent back to his time to see him live, the same man would be the antagonist.

Name= C.U.1.R.E
Main Character= Lionardi D Caperio
Antagonist = Arnold Vosloo

I had an idea for a type of 1st person shot movie with multiple first person shots, but you don't really know for sure who is saying what, just how others are interacting with that person.

It would show different experiences in dealing with the same people....with the end result being a type black/white/male/female/pretty/ugly/young/old/rich/poor/etc/etc/etc....perspective piece.

end message shows how the outside world dictates our mood/behavior/success/failure/happiness/sadness/etc/etc.

Just gotta think of a "crash" type story to pull it all together.

or it could be a type of "Clue" movie who done it piece...just shot in the 1st person.

I don't know why a good version of this has never happened.

Should make it a board project.

A well endowed cable repairman is called to the house of an attractive woman, who answers the door wearing nothing but a towel...

... And he fixes the cable and leaves.
