I want to know peoples thoughts about a new story I thought of it's a action/crime thriller about the military using death row inmates as soldiers and one innocent man is framed for killing his family as a conspiracy.

Just tell me what you think or if you have any feedback, I look forward to hearing from you.

reminds me of "the dirty dozen" meets "the fugitive." it will sell if packaged well.

I have the impression that this idea has already been used.

This is pretty small idea. How you will make that into a 2 hour film. People with asperger's are not good at making up stories therefore I think we should make film, if at all, on techincal subjects which require more of logic than empathy.

Write a whole script with a full plot then sell it to Hollywood. Make yourself some cash.

Sounds like you just watched Gamer... That was probably the most unoriginal concept I've ever heard.

Theoretically, yes, but it's a very hard thing to do as it's such a competitive business. It helps to have contacts.
