Self-explanatory, really.

Charlie Rating: R
A deranged soldier killed in Vietnam rises from the grave and goes on a rampage throughout a Pacific Northwest town.

Old Habits Die Hard Rating: PG-13
John McClane battles a rogue North Korean general with the help of Zeus Carver (Samuel L. Jackson's character from Die Hard with a Vengeance).

To Live and Die in L.A. (remake) Rating: PG-13
A remake of William Friedkin's 1985 thriller. The seedy content is toned down for mass consumption, the Wang Chung soundtrack is replaced with hip-hop, the car chase is much less realistic, and Chance's face doesn't get turned into strawberry jam ten minutes before the end, which is much more upbeat.

Right to Life Rating: R
A Christian pro-life action movie about a hypermasculine adoptive father/homicide cop who doesn't play by the rules and has paralysis on one side of his face. He's on the hunt for a devil-worshipping abortionist serial killer. The movie has the usual pro-family, anti-choice slant while hypocritically inundating the audience with extremely graphic violence; one scene has the shirtless cop unload an M60 into a godless commie abortion clinic while he has his adopted son feed him the ammunition.

Wow, I never thought of making up a terrible movie idea. Not on purpose, anyway. I did make up one idea for a sitcom, though, that is if I could be the star of my own sitcom, except that it's really more of a spoof of sitcoms in general.

-I Hate My Friends! Rating: G (ha kidding)
A sitcom inspired by such smash hits as "Friends" "Ellen", "Drew Carey", and "Seinfeild", the star of the show (played by me) has a group of the stupidest, most immature, annoying and possibly dangerous best friends that no one would ever want to hang out with, including herself. She despises every single second she is forced to be with these disgusting sub-humans who constantly barge into her apartment (which has lots of fancy expensive stuff, even though she works as a part-time cafeteria lady at a high school), eat all her food, act like they own the place (Where do they actually live, anyway? Who knows?) and break at least one prized possession, and isn't shy about showing it, but her "friends" have no clue about her true feelings or the incredibly funny fantasies she has about torturing and/or murdering them each show. There's the sex-addicted lush who drinks until his blood alcohol level is higher than his IQ and passes out in a hilariously strange place every week. The prescription-drug-addicted 35-year-old female who acts like a 12-year-old girl, dresses like a drag queen (maybe she is one, but we're not telling!), with a voice like squeaky chalk who makes cruel, tasteless jokes about the stars' weight, hair, fashion sense and love life (or lack of the latter two). The whiny, constantly complaining man-child who is unemployed and still lives in the basement of his parents, whom he still calls Mommy and Daddy, and doesn't even know how to cook water! And imagine the craziness when the landlord, who is a PUPPET, drops by! Yes, these wacky, adventure-instigating pals make life miserable for the star, and the series finale will either end with her killing herself or each of them, or both! ONLY ON FOX!! !

be careful, Hollywood execs might accidentally come across this thread and use some of these ideas.

Yellow rated G
And engaging film about a traffic light stuck on blinking yellow. 3 hours of a rural traffic light, all one camera shot.

I'm reminded of hairdresser-turned-producer Jon Peters' idea for Superman in the '90s: no suit, no flying, and a gigantic spider in the third act. Sadly, he was actually serious.

I can't think of a name for this one. Feel free to come up with one.
Plot: A guy protects his pregnant girlfriend during a zombie apocalypse.
Subtitle: There was no time for protection. There is no protection from the infected.

The "AWESOM-O" episode of South park comes to mind.
I couldn't find a youtube clip, but here's part of the script:

But I did find this clip:

Titanic II - A zombie Leonardo DiCaprio out to eat Kate Winslet's brains!

Hmmm..... I think I would actually pay to see that.

Rise of Robin: Legacy of The Dark Knight, part one
Robin (played by Justin Bieber) teams up with Catgirl (played by Miley Cyrus) - as two 17-year old high school students tasked with defeating The Joker (played by Steve Martin) and Joker Jr. (played by Rob Schneider).

Other notable stars are Eddie Murphy (as both Tweedledum and Tweedledee), Kanye West (Lucius Fox), Chevy Chase (Alfred) and Bob Saget (Commissioner Gordon). And the movie is PG-13.

The Bourne Redundancy
Matt Damon returns as Jason Bourne, only to find that both Treadstone and Blackbriar have been diversions intended to cover up a much more sinister initiative: A cloning programme known as Briarthread.

Bourne must now fight multiple clones of himself while evading the clones of enemies he has previously vanquished in the earlier movies, only to find in the end that he himself is a clone and the real Jason Bourne (codename Blackstone) has been pulling the strings since day one.

Lord of The Matrix
Two immensely popular franchises are brought together in this summer Blockbuster. Agent Smith (Steven Seagal) has miraculously survived and now joins forces with an undead Saruman (Tom Cruise) in an attempt to resurrect Sauron (Dolph Lundgren) and plug him into the Matrix, thus achieving full control of the system.

It is now up to Morpheus (Shaquille O'Neal) and Gandalf (David Caruso) to take down the hordes of Agents and Orcs before Smith and Saruman can complete their sinister plot.

Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace
An cast of notable actors (Ian McDiarmid, Ewan McGregor, Liam Neeson, Natalie Portman, Samuel L. Jackson, Terence Stamp) is brought together to portray the story about the young Anakin Skywalker who would later go on to become the infamous Darth Vader.

The entire movie is then ruined by a cheap gimmick in the shape of Jar Jar Binks, an uninspired and unfunny sidekick who is completely irrelevant to the story and who is designed solely to appeal to young children and to boost merchandise sales... Oh, wait...

What A Dystopic World

Rating: PG-13

Synopsis: Set in an alternate reality and loosely based on the song "What A Wonderful World", this film examines what the current world would be like had certain historic events never happened at all.

A boy is orphaned, and comes to live with his aunt and uncle.

He is 'rescued' from this situation by a wise, bearded old man who turns out to have "Special Powers".

The old man reveals to the boy that his father also had "Special Powers" that enabled him to excel in competition.

The boy is instructed in the use of his own "Special Powers", and receives an item of focus for those powers.

The boy has many adventures during his training, and makes many strange friends and dangerous enemies along the way.

Also during these adventures, the boy distinguishes himself in the same field of competition as his father.

The boy learns that his arch-nemesis also murdered his parents, and he eventually defeats his arch-nemesis (or so he thinks).

In the finale, the boy receives accolades for his triumph, while John Williams' Orchestra plays lushly-composed martial music.

I'm wondering what to call this ... Potter Wars? ... Harry's Star? ...

Once Before Reality

Rating: PG

Synopsis: Cartoon characters from various cartoon shows and animated movies get trapped in the human world and have to their way back, but things get complicated after all get turned into people thanks to Hollywood.

Godzilla vs Titanic
Inspired by this pic https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=godzi ... B500%3B409 a movie about the "true" story of how the Titanic sank. It would be a cover up and years later into modern day Godzilla returns and attacks tokyo.

Amadeus II

As it turns out, Salieri did not kill Amadeus. He simply absconded to a monastery in Hungary where he taught organ to the monks.

Salieri, meanwhile, sees his opera career flourishing as Amadeus plots his return to modern Vienna with the help of his aging pal, Franz Joseph Haydn.
