Movie Idea, "The Bastards"

(I had this idea and typed it in like 10 minutes so bear with me) A comedy movie about 2 guys who were both invited to a place with a promise that they could find their dad, however they had to live in a small condo together and the first one to lose interest would lose the opportunity to see his dad again. They both are extremely stubborn, the contest gos on for weeks, when suddenly they are offered a cash ammount to leave the building, both Decide that "its been 30 years fuck it" and they both leave at the same time, becoming best friends, only to find out later that the people who set this up were both of their dad's. Which they learned after watching them for days in the room that the sons actually did not give a fuck about finding their dad, they just wanted an escape from their wife, and a nice condo with complete freedom did not sound so bad. ( which they were lied to about and had to share the same room) with extreme creativity, the right actors, and hilarious roleplay this could be a killer comedy movie. Ps. This idea was inspired by a thought that what if there was an entire movie that was just about a staring contest

Soviet X-Files

I have this idea in my head of a TV show that operates basically on the same premise as the X-Files but in the Soviet Union during the 60s/70s. Two agents working for a small unit in the KGB that are sent to investigate strange and unexplained phenomena such as extraterrestrial and paranormal activity. If I were to make it I would focus on achieving a very specific type of aesthetics and atmosphere. Bleak, eerie settings and stories, with a backdrop of Cold War paranoia. Disheveled socialist-modernist architecture, worn and outdated equipment, sparse snow covered natural landscapes. I’m thinking something like HBO’s Chernobyl and Tarkovsky in its visuals. I wouldn’t want it to have a silly American bias like most western depictions of the USSR, it wouldn’t be a comment on ideology. Some of the famous bureaucracy and secrecy of the Soviet chain of command could help the plot though, similar to how Mulder and Scully have to fight against shadowy members of their own government. I think as a setting it could be perfect for a show about creepy investigations and if properly made it could be amazing. Unfortunately I am not a filmmaker and am poor so I won’t be making it any time soon. To properly see out my vision the project would need a massive budget as well haha.

THIS IS EASTER (holiday horror movie creature idea)

As if you couldn't tell from the title.

This is basically gonna be a Easter creature horror film with more of a bigger budget.

Movie Plot:

In the small town of Maplewood County, Rhode Island. A teen boy named William Barker goes through the traumatic events of losing his little brother at the hands of a child eating Easter Bunny named Kottentail, soon of course eventually Will meets friends upon moving to the small town with his family he soon discovers that the creature is tied to the dark Germanic origins of the holiday and soon realizes that he needs to stop the creature from taking the people he loves to prevent a ritualistic elegance that it is tied to every 11 years that is responsible; for the multiple disappearances of children over the towns history and past.

This would be basically the first Easter Bunny horror film where the budget and filmmaking is high quality and giving the holiday the horror treatment that it deserves as I believe. Much like in the same vein of how Thanksgiving got the same big budget horror film treatment with Eli Roth came and did Thanksgiving.

No longer will the holiday itself be forever bound to cheap backyard projects and passible but forgettable indie films. The holiday will get the big budget treatment that it respectfully calls for.

The budget would go in for $500,000.00 dollars for special effects, locations, cameras, cinematography, gore effects, set designing, wardrobe functions, and also the practical effects and prosthetic makeup for Kottentail.

My very own Oliver & Company live-action remake pt 2

Later on the same night, Jenny and Georgette were following the map to the rendezvous drawn on the other side of the ransom note. Meanwhile, Fagin was waiting impatiently for Jenny’s arrival and Dodger, having recovered from his injuries, rejoined the rest of the gang. Then, Fagin was beginning to get rather nervous and worried about what to do and say when he meets Oliver’s new owner; knowing that what he was doing was wrong and that he didn’t have the heart to tell Jenny the truth once they have actually met in person.

Having arrived at the rendezvous but oblivious to that matter and as to who Fagin is, Jenny appeared behind Fagin, excused herself, and asked him for help; not knowing that Sykes and some of his men were watching them in the former’s car from a distance. “I don’t know about you, boss, but something doesn’t feel right.” said one thug. “I say we kill the old man and get the girl now, boss.” said another thug, but Sykes simply replied: “Patience, boys. Patience. Let’s just see how far this goes. And in the end, if all else fails, we’ll make our move, but no killing, understood? Don’t wanna make a scene or draw attention to ourselves now, do we? Besides, Fagin’s got us this far, so, why do otherwise; failure or not? It ain’t worth it. He ain’t worth it either, right, boys?” Each thug’s response ended with: “Right, boss.” Sykes replied back: “Right. Now shut up and watch. I don’t wanna miss anything here.” Close to panicking, Fagin simply brushed off his worries, faked a smile, and pretended he did not who Jenny was and what she was really doing here. “Uh, yes, Jen… I mean, cute little girl? What can I do for you?” asked Fagin sheepishly. “Oh, please, sir.” replied Jenny to Fagin, “Somebody stole my kitty. They left me this note and told me they’ll give him back to me if I meet them somewhere here on this map tonight in exchange for some money as payment. But now, I’m not so sure where I am anymore.” Fagin replied back: “Oh, really? Well, that is awful. I, for one, can’t imagine what sort of person would do such a horrible thing; especially, to a sweet and innocent little girl like you.” “I know. But what’s worse is that I don’t even have the exact amount of money they’ve asked for.” replied back Jenny. Fagin nearly shouted out: “What?! You don’t have the… I mean, what do you mean you don’t have the money, my dear?” Jenny replied: “Well, you see, sir. My parents are out of town and with our money at the bank and me being a minor, I can’t seem to get the exact amount I need to get my kitty, Oliver back legally. And the last thing I’d want is to involve either the police or even our butler, Winston in all this for that matter.” Fagin asked: “Oh, well. We certainly wouldn’t want that. And if anything, that was pretty smart thinking on your part, my dear, but tell me. Just how much do you need and how exactly do you intend to get your Oliver back?” “I don’t know. I was hoping I would get him back with this even though they asked for approximately $47,405.” replied Jenny as she showed Fagin her piggy bank. Fagin appeared more devastated than ever since her piggy bank containing only a few bank notes and coins was all that she had to get Oliver back.

When Jenny asked Fagin about the nature of the kidnapper and his actions, the latter tried to cheer her up while explaining the reason for his actions, but Jenny stated it was still wrong as she started to worry and cry out of fear of never seeing Oliver again, leaving Fagin in quite a state and situation where a tough decision had to be made. Feeling more guilt-stricken than before, Fagin walked away and watched Jenny cry and Georgette, beginning to regret her earlier actions when she saw how sad Jenny really was without Oliver, come to comfort her in her time of need. Reunited with his dogs, listening to their whines, and looking at both their sad facial expressions and Oliver’s, Fagin was stuck struggling with his conscience. “Without the money, we’re dead. Without you, life has no meaning for us and especially, Jenny anymore.” said Fagin to his friends. After a brief moment of hesitation and just as Jenny was about to return home with Georgette, Fagin finally did the right thing. “Well, I don’t care what happens. That girl’s happiness is more important than all the money in the world. And if you really mean that much to her, Oliver, then, so be it. I say go for it. The heck with what Sykes may think or do. We’ll manage… somehow.” said Fagin to himself before placing Oliver in a nearby box and pretending to find him there as he called out to Jenny in order to avoid suspicion and make it look like he had found the kitten instead. Reunited with Oliver once again, Jenny was overjoyed and thanked Fagin who then introduced both himself and his dogs properly before Jenny returned the favor by introducing herself and Georgette as well.

Unfortunately, everyone’s happiness was cut short when suddenly smoke grenades were deployed out of nowhere and in their direction. Though temporarily blinded from the smoke, it was not too difficult to guess Sykes and his men were behind tonight’s little stunt. Having witnessed everything earlier, Sykes decided to take matters into his own hands instead. During the struggle, Sykes; wearing a mask, rushed in with some of his men, grabbed Jenny, put a mask on her, and took her away. Fagin and the animals tried to stop them, but with the smoke and thugs keeping them at bay for as long as possible proved too much for them to overcome. Before driving away in his car, Sykes spoke out to Fagin: “I gotta admit, Fagin! I may be disappointed with you after what I had just seen, but now that I got what I need to get what I really want, I say, keep your mouth shut and consider our account closed!” The smoke wore off seconds after Sykes and Jenny were completely out of sight.

Worried about Jenny and determined to get her back, Oliver and the dogs including Georgette agreed to go after Sykes and rescue her by any means necessary, so, they rushed away straight back to Sykes’ warehouse without halting, only without Fagin this time since he was still recovering from the smoke’s effects.

At Sykes’ warehouse, Oliver and the dogs began to inspect the place to see if there was any possible entry big enough for them to crawl through since the doors and windows were obviously locked though unguarded. Luckily, one window on top of a dumpster was cracked open enough for someone as small as Oliver to crawl through. Once inside, Oliver was capable of opening a hatch that could only be opened from the inside in order to allow the rest of the company to enter with ease.

In the meantime, at the office, Jenny was shedding tears out of fear of Bull’s-eye snarling and growling at her while Sykes was tying her up to a chair; much to the wicked amusement of his men surrounding her. “Now, don’t cry, little girl. You’re lucky he only bites when I tell him to.” said Sykes with a cruel, sadistic tone. “Please, let me go. I haven’t done anything to you. Please, let me go.” pleaded Jenny. “Sorry, my dear, but I’m afraid that’s something I simply cannot do. Not yet anyway. And furthermore, it’s not what you did to me. Far from it. It’s what I want you to do for me. As simple as that, really.” “What do you want from me?” asked Jenny before Sykes gagged her. Sykes replied: “When I get your parents to deliver the rest of my money our good friend, Fagin formerly owed me somehow, you’ll be as free as a bird. And all this will be nothing more than just a bad dream you’ll soon wake up from and forget in no time at all. In the meantime, I just want you to sit back and relax. Take a load off and let me worry about the rest from now on. And if you know what’s good for you, you’d be kind enough to behave like the good little girl that you are… unless, of course, you want Bull’s-eye here to show you proper manners. Alright?” Jenny nodded and Sykes added: “That’s a good girl. Now, be still and don’t make any sudden moves or noise either. Keep an eye on her while I take care of business, boys.” Then, Sykes returned to his desk and checked the phone book to call up Jenny’s parents or at the very least, her butler at her address for a ransom demand while Jenny remained heavily guarded by his thugs and especially, Bull’s-eye, snarling and growling at her non-stop.

While sneaking in, Georgette accidentally tipped some empty boxes off-balance, creating some noise that alerted the gangsters mildly. Curious, Sykes sent most of his men led by Bull’s-eye to investigate the matter while Roscoe and DeSoto stayed behind to guard Jenny. Knowing they were in trouble now, Oliver and the dogs devised another strategy: divide and conquer. Going separate ways eventually confused Bull’s-eye’s tracking skills, so, both Bull’s-eye and the gangsters went in two different directions the rest of the way.

With only two thugs following suit now, Bull’s-eye was suddenly lured by Oliver straight into a puddle of soap which he slipped on, fell on his side, and crashed into an entire shelf holding tin cans of paint, which fell on and trapped him momentarily. Then, the two thugs came by to check up on Bull’s-eye when they heard all the commotion, only to end up getting stuff dropped on and thrown at them by Dodger and Rita from some shelves on the way and eventually, get knocked out after some oil tin cans fell on their heads.

The other two thugs still continued their own path until they came across Frankie who appeared to be somewhat hurt and lying on the ground motionless. They approached him for further examination, only to find themselves suddenly confronted by Charley and Einstein, snarling and growling at them from behind as if ready to attack. Realizing they’ve been tricked and becoming more intimidated than ever, the thugs panicked and tried to run away, but their escape route was blocked further by Frankie and Georgette having joined up as well and the two ended up getting bitten on the posteriors by Charley and Einstein when trying to escape either way out of fear before being pinned to the ground with all four dogs dog-piling and fighting them off until they were too weak to move or walk any further.

Later, Sykes was busy speaking on the phone with Winston, asking him to get in contact with Jenny’s parents from afar concerning the current situation while Roscoe and DeSoto were still watching their young hostage. Reunited once again, Oliver and the dogs proceeded altogether to Sykes’ office where they overheard the mobster in his phone conversation. Acting quickly, Oliver and the dogs created another diversion by howling, barking, and meowing loudly from a distance nearby. So loud that Sykes was forced to cut his conversation with Winston short. “What is this?!” exclaimed Sykes. Although Jenny knew this meant Oliver, Georgette, and Fagin’s dogs were here, she remained silent to avoid suspicion. Sensing something was wrong considering his other men’s disappearances, Sykes decided to take matters into his own hands with Roscoe and DeSoto following suit, leaving Jenny unguarded. Outside the office with the door left open, Sykes ordered: “Roscoe, you go this way. DeSoto, the other way. I’ll see what’s going on through here.” “Right, boss.” replied his remaining thugs before splitting up.

As soon as the coast was clear, the animals entered where Jenny found herself happily reunited with Oliver and Georgette once again and rescued by the other dogs after chewing off the ropes at the same time. “What are you doin’?! Playin’ hide-and-seek?! Get outta there, you stupid mutt!” exclaimed Sykes in anger and annoyance when he found and freed his dog from his temporary confinement. Having found the two thugs knocked down earlier by oil cans, Roscoe picked them up and forced them to recover quickly. “Get up, you mugs! Come on! What happened?” asked Roscoe. After a slight recovery from their injuries, one of the agonized thugs simply responded: “Cats. Dogs. Tin cans!” Roscoe replied: “Aw, shut up, will ya?! You know, you two are lucky I’m not the boss. Otherwise, I would have my way with you two morons already. I can only imagine what he has to say when he finds out what a bunch of incompetent idiots you two really are. Now get up and get going! You two make me sick just by looking at your two ugly faces!” When DeSoto found the other thugs in so much pain and trauma from the dog attacks earlier, his reaction matched Roscoe’s as well. “Alright, alright! Now what’s going on here? And what happened to your clothes?” asked DeSoto. “Dogs. Dogs. Dogs!” was the only response DeSoto could get from one of the traumatized thugs unfortunately. DeSoto replied: “Aw, shut up, will ya?! What is it with you two and this thing about dogs? Huh?! You just wait and see what the boss has to say when he finds out about the two dum-dums he keeps on payroll for his business. Now come on! I swear, how did the boss put up with you two for so long, I dunno!”

When Sykes returned with Bull’s-eye to his office only to discover, to his shock, that Jenny was missing and four of his men retrieved by Roscoe and DeSoto had been rendered weak and useless, he resumed the search with Roscoe, DeSoto, and Bull’s-eye this time; leaving the rest of his men behind at his office to await forthcoming punishment for their failure and incompetence.

Jenny and the animals tried making their way to the nearest possible exit. Hearing their enemies’ voices getting louder, they tried hiding and outwitting them by all means possible. After giving their enemies the slip yet again, Jenny suddenly found herself grabbed and silenced from behind by an unknown individual. As it turned out, it was none other than Fagin having followed his friends all the way over here to join in the rescue and picked the lock to one of the doors in doing so; much to their joy and relief. However, Jenny was a bit upset with Fagin for not telling her the truth in the first place, but, like any understanding person, she forgave him when the latter confessed and apologized for everything.

After making amends, Fagin, Jenny, and the animals’ path to freedom was blocked by Sykes and his minions surrounding them. Luckily, Fagin revealed he had stolen some smoke grenades he had previously found in storage when making his way in earlier, which he used to create enough smoke to allow everyone to escape on his scooter. But even that wasn’t enough to stop Sykes and his minions from pursuing their enemies in his limo with Sykes at the wheels after that.

However, the chase was conspicuous enough to attract the attention of cops patrolling the streets when gunshots were heard firing and some vehicles were seen colliding in traffic. Enraged, Sykes ordered Roscoe and DeSoto to cease fire considering their carelessness not only got the cops on their tail, but also nearly cost him Jenny’s life whom he needed alive. Nevertheless, with the cops in pursuit and returning fire, Sykes had no other choice but to allow his men to shoot back at them instead. Eventually, the cops’ bullets were able to hit one of the tires, which forced the troublemakers to steer off-course and out of control when chasing their enemies through the docks. Then, just when Sykes, driving like a maniac, thought he had them cornered at the edge of the dock despite his men’s warnings, Fagin quickly drove everyone to safety just before the car could hit them headfirst at the last minute, revealing he had tricked the gangsters into driving off the road. The car plunged and crashed into the Hudson River, taking the villains’ lives with it before it sank to the bottom.

With Sykes dead, Fagin was free from his debt for good. Later, the cops were briefed on the whole situation, the warehouse was raided, Jenny’s stolen items were recovered among some other things, the rest of the surviving gangsters were either arrested or condemned to a medical institute, and Jenny was returned safely home with Oliver and Georgette; much to Winston’s relief who nearly gave up hope and tried to brief both the police and his employers on the former situation.

The next day, at her mansion, Jenny was celebrating her 8th birthday with Winston and all of her friends both old and new. Then, the doorbell rang. Jenny went over to answer it, only to find to her half-unexpected surprise that her parents had actually made it home in time for her birthday as promised since the very beginning after all. “I knew you’d come somehow. Even though I thought otherwise.” said Jenny. “Oh, sweetie. Nothing is more important to us than you and your happiness. Business can wait, but family can’t.” stated Jenny’s father. “Remember, honey. Family always comes first. And nothing could ever change or take that away from us either.” added Jenny’s mother.

After a touching reunion, Jenny’s parents were eager to meet Oliver before they were introduced to Fagin and his dogs after that. When the party was over and Jenny’s school friends were gone, Jenny’s parents were briefed on the whole thing. Though slightly shocked and disappointed, they didn’t care as they were simply happy knowing their daughter was safe and more grateful to Fagin for rescuing her than returning their stolen items, aside from the fact that Mr. Foxworth never really used or even liked the ashtray given to him by his father-in-law as a wedding gift. Then, the police arrived to escort Fagin to the station right after the party as per agreed since he still had a lot to answer for the rest of his crimes no matter how small they may have been. Nevertheless, Mr. and Mrs. Foxworth promised and reassured they would make it up to Fagin somehow in gratitude for having saved their daughter and care for his dogs during his temporary absence as well.

The next day, after a long period in court and trial with a little help from the Foxworth family, Winston, and their lawyer, Mr. Thompson, Fagin was graciously sentenced to 2,184 hours of community service, on promise of good behavior after much deliberation and in recognition for his recent actions and the Foxworths were granted temporary custody of his dogs until such time when Fagin had finally performed his proper duties. Before leaving the court, the Foxworths generously promised Fagin a job offer at their company once the latter was free, which he gladly accepted. Fagin even asked Jenny to take care of Oliver now that he was her cat both officially and legally, which she certainly promised to do.

3 months passed and Fagin was already working at the Foxworths’ firm, having made it to employee of the month and living in an apartment with his dogs at a price he could now afford to pay whereas Oliver was happily living a new life in a new home with his loved ones including Jenny and Georgette, of course; knowing he could always see his old friends whenever they visited from time to time too.
