Mad Max 2 Ideas

A sequel to the 2015 video game. Ride the Fury Road as the wandering Max (Bren Foster) but this time no longer a recluse. Accompanying the road warrior is the legendary Furiosa (Allanah Pearce) as they share a common goal.  

Seamless Co-op. While Max has Furiosa by his side, she can be controlled by another player at any point in the game. On solo, a player can switch between them at will, and be able to give commands to the other during intense combat. 

Furiosa comes with her own loadouts. Her customizable prosthetic arm can be equipped with gadgets from grappling hooks to dart guns. And her marksman rifle, to scan threats from miles away and eliminate them with deadly precision.

Max is up close and personal. Talking with more his fists than his voice. Upgrade and customize the iconic sawd-off with different ammo types, and brandish melee weapons from knives to hatchets. Engage in brutal close quarters combat, and paint the roads with blood and oil. 

New vehicles to shred the dirt. Motorbikes, semi-trucks, and much more are in your hand to ride the fury road. Max and Furiosa can ride in the same rig, or on separate wheels. Equipped with even more customizable features.

New environments: Not every place in the world is dead and dry, but every place is dangerous nonetheless. Explore putride marshland, cold mountains, and cities forgotten by time and claimed by dust. 

PvP Multiplayer: Wage a war of wheels. Fight other players 24x on foot and on the road for control of the wastelands, as rival warbands. Live, die, then live again, and let the world witness your glory. 

Edit: Correction on Mad Max's voice actor.

Absolute Avengers Idea

Basically the same principle of the Absolute D.C universe, where the tables are flipped. Mostly initially starting off with core Tony Stark, Nick Fury and Stephanie Rogers III, as they join to solve the mystery of the Spider-Men and their possible ties to the Hydra Corporation.

Tagline: This world has no heros, it has avengers.

Tony Stark is a mechanic at an autoshop run by his father, Stark N' Sons. His father Howard is a former engineer at the Hydra Corporation, and had passed on his technical knowledge onto his son, Tony, who at a young age, had managed to build various mechanical devices from scratch. Tony hoped to become a prominent engineer at Hydra Corp, despite his Father's firm objections, but was forced to drop out of college after an incident. Since then he worked mainly at his fathers auto-shop, fixing machines and circumventing their anti-repair measures. On the side, Tony, took up work with the mob as a courior to help his family make ends meet.

Eventually, as his family and community is threatened, he adorns a protective suit built with some his custom gadgets, a pair of tire irons, and his trusty car The Javelin, becoming known as the Iron Man.

He does not possess the Arc Reactor, at least not initially, so he cannot fly nor fire lasers. He uses custom made batteries to power his gear, but relies mostly on his technical intuition in tackling a problem. He uses a makeshift mask made from his fathers old welding mask (which he modified without permission as a kid,) with built in multi-spectral cameras, and various armor pieces over his leather jacket. Not quite bullet-proof, but close enough.

During his exhausting vigilance to protect his community, he eventually crosses paths with a man that would change the course of his life. Detective Nick Fury, who requests him to aid an investigation of a decade old cold-case that has begun to finally thaw. The Kidnappings of Peter Parker, Gwen Stacey, and Miles Morales, which may have a connection to various high profile murders that proceeded them, including the recent attempt on mayoral candidate Stephanie Rogers III who is forced into hiding under the Detective.

First they must get in touch with a street gang who may have leads on the case, The Black Widow Mafia, and hope their exchange does not begin or end in a bloodshed.

Potential Pitch for a Resistance Prequel Game

If Insomniac ever decides to return to the Resistance series, I think a prequel would be a good installment.

"1921, In the cold and isolated Siberian Wilderness, a regiment of soldiers are sent to quell any threats to the Russian Empire, and stamp out all who resist. They however discover they have become the resistance against an otherworldly horror that threatens all of human kind."

How Can I Become a Fossil?

So, full disclosure: I am going to die someday. And I realized, I only get to do it ONCE. So upon realizing this, I want to make sure I commit to the part and make it extra special post mortum. So my not stupid question here is: How and where should I get buried to make sure my chances of fossilization is garunteed with a margine of at least 80%? If possible, I want to be posed doing some extravagant pose, maybe flipping the finger to those entitled Eonnials.

I am aware fossilization is pretty rare, maybe even as rare as me being able to find a date, and much like so it depends on the state of my body. Being just enough to avoid outright decomposition but enough to allow gradual mineralization of my bones. So which environment would you suggest for this multi-million year mission to be a rad looking fossil.

Thanks, for any help.

20th Century Fox (Disney) Should adapt the OG AVP comic from 1989

The AVP 2004 movies was just okay, but I think these two extra terrestrial beasts deserve a true adaptation of an all time classic as a horror scifi western. With how Alien Romulus and Prey really emulated those classic Dark Horse Comic vibes, I think someone on the directing roster might be able to pull it off.

Weapon Idea Pitch

M-1000 Naginata, a versatile energy weapon based on the Quasar Cannon‘s mechanism scaled down to a rifle reminiscent of weapons of pre-Super Earth eras. The M-1000 comes with three fire modes. Light armor pen with increased shots per heat sink. Medium with eight shots per heat sink. And finally, heavy that will expend the entire heat sink, requiring a reload qued by its signature PING.

Excuse my half-assed photobashing. Lol

edit: Yes, I saw I misspelled Heat-Sink. Blame the atrocious autocorrect.
