Topic awaiting preservation: To Write A Screenplay

If you could make a movie, any movie, what would it be about, who would be in it, etc.

I'd like to do a big budget sci-fi movie with Hugo Weaving, Robin Williams, Dominic Keating, Gary Sinise, and Christopher Lee as the voice of the head alien.

I have never wanted to do a screen play. However, I have always wanted to write a book

But, if I ever did a movie, I doubt that I would cast Gary Sinise

If I were to write a movie it would be a movie that takes place near the turn of the century what with recent technology and all. It would be casted with Vincent Perez, Micheal Wincott, Christopher Walken, and Linda Hamilton. It would be about the creater of the universe. Who created what, God, or something else? I would have Perez play a scientist believe it or not, with Linda as his co-worker. They work in arizona for the government studying the crash of the meteor millions of years ago. Wincott would play a philosopher, with theories linking as to how we got here. And Walken as an alien . Walken would be an extra terrestrial cloaked in a humans body to give information to the epitomy of the human race. The government tracks him down and catches him, being the extremely forceful government as we are, walken would be treated as a slave and isolated from all society. Finally wincott would be hired by the government to communicate with Walken and get as much information as possible. Perez and Hamilton will have finally made the discovery that the meteor was actually a subspacecraft that crashed when the dinosaurs were in existence. Wincott would reveal to the government that the subspacecraft that landed had actually killed off several thousand dinosaurs within a 50 mile radius. And emptied a genepool of humans that later evolved into the early civilized myans and ice age hunters. So that myans were proven to be the first human race. Then as the aliens watched, light years away in a distant galaxy, they decided to intervein and observe closer, possible revealing their world to us humans. Thus roswell. But the land was a failure and it would take them up untill the year 1999-2002 (around then) before they could successfully transport another alien to the planet. Thus Christopher walken . I want this movie to be something that is hard to understand untill near the end and even then difficult to comprehend what happened. I want to be a director though not a writer, heh. But James Cameron has written and directed several movies so maybe I will let my envy carry me away someday!

Thankyou Dr. Silence .

I would make a high-budget, high-intensity action flick, casting all the 'action greats'
Jean-Claude Van Damme
Bruce Willis
Arnold
Stallone
...every single one of them I could afford. I'd spend damn near 3/4 of my budget on them and some no-name hot porn chick who would accept 'real' work for minimum wage.

Then, all but the chick would be killed off in the first 15 min.

Ice-T and KRS-ONE would emerge from nowhere, team up with the chick, and finish as the heros.

Of course the trailers and adverts wouldn't mention anything at all about Ice-T or KRS-ONE, but instead would be fiery car crashes and gun battles with the 'stars'...and plenty of almost nude scenes with the chick.

Basically, my movie goes as such...

In the year 2104, the ISA (that's International Space Administration to you) is on the eve of the launching of an experimental ship, one which can travel faster than light. The journey, in the eyes of the ship crew, will take six months. In normal space-time, it will take approx. 2 years. But something goes wrong...

Whaddaya think?
