Your Million Dollar Movie IdeaFollow

#1 Mar 09 2004 at 8:34 PM Rating: Good
Here's mine:

It is set 20 yrs after the last james bond movie. James is retired, but a job comes up which requires his special skills and he is pulled out of retirement for one last mission. The actor playing James would be Sean Connery. It doesn't really matter what the rest of the story was about--it'd kick *** anyway.

What's yours?

Tried that once, with "Never say Never Again" in 1983, after George Lazenby and Roger Moore each went a few rounds as 007
since Connery gave up after "Diamonds are Forever", 1971.

I don't have any million-dollar movie ideas, but I do have a few 2500-dollar ideas.

Ok, how about this:

Sean Connery ends up rotting in prison for decades, is pulled out for one last job because of his unique skills. He performs amazing feats of daring as a snowy-white-haired, hard-as-nails senior. Then he escapes at the end, convincing people that he was killed in a missile strike...

..oh, wait, that's The Rock.

Touche again. *BUT*, did he say, "shaken, not stirred" in the Rock? I thought not.

I still think it'd be a fun idea.

Something about a Special Forces guy with a controversial background who frees illegally imprisoned citizens of various nations in a millitary camp in Cuba who have been brought there by the acts of a paranoid dumb coward of president who cheated himself into his office.


.....but wait a sec...Guantamo Bay is no Cubanian prison camp....

You are aware of course that the majority of the priosoners there at ol' guanti are diehard Taliban and al-qaida top brass, captured during military operations, who would most likely want to kill you in horrible ways for being an "unveiled western harlot of satan" just as soon as look at you? Yes, there are legal issues that should be looked at, if only for insuring the integrety of constitutional rights in the future, but damn it, suggesting we let those bastards run around free is quite frankly the stupidest idea ever proposed in this forum. These are not poor misguided arab sheep-herders. I won't lose any sleep over what happens to them there.

Do I have to say it again?

I am a native German speaker but no German. I know its a long way across the ocean and most americans dont give a **** about the rest of the world but we have 3 German-speaking countries in Europe - and since we are the European Union nowadays we live, work and marry all over Europe :))

Then they are to be POW! But the US do not treat them as according the Geneva convention!

And BTW: Today 3 imprisoned british citizens return as free people from Guantamo Bay to England. Want to tell me their imprisonment was legal under international law?

... Who were promptly then re-arrested and are undergoing interrogation.

And there are 4 of them.

Edit: just in case you missed this the first time I posted it. Small type, I know.
Yes, there are legal issues that should be looked at

Yes. That and because we have more nukes. Being regarded as an arrogant insufferable culture with an itchy trigger finger comes in handy sometimes wouldn't you say?

Movie idea:

60 days of Night.


A vampire moves to a moderate sized town in northern Alaska during the winter. The sun never rises and he can hunt whenever he wants. Sort of murder/ mystery/ horror.

oh oh i would make some kind of reallife anime movie like DBZ or Evangelion, wait there already doing that....

As there is a season where the sun does not go down also - there's big potential for the Sequel:

60 days of Sunlight.

We Europeans dont give a **** about your nukes, the former USSR warheads still rotting in some unknown places giving us by far more headache.....

Oh wait, I have one too. How about a grand sweeping epic about an entire continent of countries that does nothing when one of their fellow countries disintegrates into anarchy, and a madman starts murdering huge numbers of people based on their race or religion? I see lots of potential for that one. It could be a whole series.

In the sequel, another big country from far across the sea has to come restore order, but then all the other countries start ******** and whining like art-school girls about how the big country is all insenstive and arrogant.

And somewhere in all of this Tom Cruise can play a cocky young guy.

Leiany, congratulations. You have proven yourself worthy of the venerated title of f'uckwit.

We have people like you in this country, too. We are well versed in dealing with it. Let them march, let them rant, let the have all the free speech they want, and at the end of the day, give them the international "Hi!" sign ( ..|.. ) and move on. I am, and I am sure most Americans are, glad to hear that you have problems with our national security policy. It makes us happy to know that you, a non-German native German speaker (which makes you the spawn of either complicit f'uckwits or chicken-**** "neutral" f'uckwits), are as interested in our policies and actions as you appear to be. We also realize that it is nothing more than jealousy that causes this reaction, as your country will never be able to walk to the trough, much less compete in the international ****-swinging contest.

Thank you for pointing out multiple times now that you have the right to post here. Do you happen to remember why you have rights at all? You know, that little thing we did called liberating your continent from the *****? You are an ingrate. Evil exists in the world and someone is doing something about some of it. Extremists who decide that the big dog is an easy target no longer have the option of hoping we will ignore them like so often in the past. Candy-assed little whiney ******* of the world who would rather talk to the extremists in the hopes that giving them more stuff will appease them, well, you guys tried that once, remember how well that worked out?

So, whether you are a product of **** complicity or **** profiteering, congratulations, you are now a f'uckwit.

Hmm...Think I'll vote for that one. =)


And as there is not a single European country Americans feel they should treat with respect (in fact there is NO Country in the whole worldAmericans regard as equal and treat with proper respect)I couldn't care less about the other rant.

BTW - did the NPC monsters - who attack players mindless over and over again no matter how often they are killed - get the abreviation "mob" in honor of your nickname, Moebius?

Europs as a whole isn't on par with the US. Why should we treat it as an equal? There is no country on the planet that is an equal to the US. That's why they call us a superpower. There is only one. Welcome to Pax Americanus.
#24 Mar 10 2004 at 10:54 AM Rating: Default
Pax Americana? You do remember there was a decline and fall of the Roman Empire also, do you?

PS: Some of you guys are SO easy to trigger... =)
#25 Mar 10 2004 at 11:16 AM Rating: Good
I often advocate that the United States is on a plateau approaching the decline phase of empire. Nothing new there. In the history of the world all empires have fallen.

Leiany what the f*ck has made you act like such a dipsh*t for the last 2 weeks? I have read your posts attacking randomly without even a hint of a reasoned arguement, you have vague wafting at the truth followed by general waffle showing that you read the first 2 lines <at best> of an article.

You really are making Europeans look like complete morons. Britain Actively support the US on 99% of things as do the rest of europe, we are in NATO for a reason.

3 will rot in Jail for a very very long time since they will be charged with treason and terrorism charges the forth will be deported back to Morocco. you have no idea the depth of hatred towards these four individuals in the UK all four major newspapers where covered with calls to have them hung draw and quatered <figure of spech since you seem to take every comment literally>

it's not like the US action was unpresidented look what happended to Lebbanon. and i don't see why the US should play by the rules that goven national conflicts when dealing with a terrorist group

Personally i would take them all into a dark room and execute every last one of them without publicity and without notification to anyone and let the B*stards rot.
