A blonde cheerleader Harvard graduate moves into a posh suburban development condo paradise with her mobile zoo of talking animal friends. Soon she starts a romance with her handsome next door neighbor who is a superhero in disguise. Their romance is interrupted when he is called off to fight the war on Jamaican flying killer rubber stamps. One day, her talking friend monkey sneaks out of the house and goes to the local neighborhood concert hall and accidentally ends up performing onstage. Everyone loves him and his backup singing penguins and they are suddenly thrust into fame and fortune. Suddenly, a malevolent alien spaceship approaches Earth at the same time that a major astroid that will soon obliterate everything in its path rages toward hitting Earth. Suddenly, a big green giant and his evil partner, the jealous ex-girlfriend of a super powered terrorist who is now a championship chess player hatch a plan that uses toxic waste to resurrect the dead into unkillable zombies. Suddenly, the county high school has a talent contest just as the Prom Queen gets pregnant, at the same time that her stepmother is hit by a bus at the same time that a retarded man cracks one of the local university's biggest math problems and becomes a local hero. Suddenly, escaped convicts put on a jamboree featuring a barbershop quartet of musical raccoons. Suddenly, a high school freshman gets laid by his school's most popular senior, the President's daughter, who is also the Princess of England, who is also a superhero, who is also secretly dying of hair cancer, who slept with her long lost brother 3 summers ago. Suddenly, a mysterious fog rolls in and makes every house in town haunted, and all the superheroes become talking woodpeckers, and a van full of high teens trade their marijuana stash for talking goldfish, and computers take over the world by digitally erasing people and inserting computer-generated images that look more like action figures than people. Suddenly, the world is just a big orange circle that talks to kids watching TV, and it is revealed that life is just TV, and life becomes available on XBox and iPod. And this film is nominated for 45 Oscars, only winning 18.

That's good, but you forgot the essentials: the release date, the company this film is made through (it has to be through a Disney affiliate: i.e., Disney, Touchstone, etc.), the cast (AKA the actors who do the characters) and the director(s) of your movie.

But if that was your movie, I just wanted to know why you had yet to include the release date, the cast, the directors and the studio branch under which the movie was released. I already read the title before you mentioned this to me.

Hollywood blockbusters are all the same. So a separate, individual release date, director, etc. is pointless.

And conformist. :twisted:

Yeah, or else we would know about good to mediocre Disney Direct-to-video films. No, some are great, but here're 2 mediocre movies, "Aladdin 4: The Genie Gone Bad" & "Aladin: Part 5: Jafar May Need Glasses."

Here's a potential movie I literally dreamed up around the spring of this year. Thou canst blame my unconsciousness.

Suggestions for a Title Welcome

Typical court life in a renaissance era kingdom is upset when the good king dies, and his cruel tyrant of a nephew is the only relative heir to the throne. This new ruler makes life miserable for all in his province, but even more miserable for all in his castle. What's more, he releases a fire breathing dragon his uncle had long ago imprisoned in far off magical caves. The evil king controls the dragon, only allowing the dragon freedom to do his commands, which mainly include destroying homes of the subjects that dare question their ruler's authority and burning innocent people to their untimely ends.

The heroine of our story is found in the most unlikely of sources. She is a castle worker who has been forcibly betrothed to the wicked king's not-so-wicked-but-complete-pushover right-hand man. At the young age of 15, her most trusted confidant was destroyed by the dragon, and she left her old life behind. The grief was too sharp. She ran off like a coward, disguised as a commoner, and fled the kingdom. She hid in exile for six years, working as a school teacher in the kingdom next to her own. When she receives word from her betrothed that heroes have emerged, battles have been won, and both tyrant and dragon are vanquished, she returns to her homeland -

- to what feels like a castle full of wounded ghosts and learn that the letter was all a trap.
------
I woke up after that point, so I have no idea how this tale ends. It's certainly something different, and yes, the main character is obviously yours truly (for once). Again, thou canst blame my unconsciousness!
Maybe this can end there, and then a sequel will actually be necessary for one of the few times.
------
Slogan: "Well-behaved women seldom make history, but there are exceptions."

Casting:
Scout Taylor-Compton -- Lady Henriette
Su Meredith -- Lady Beulah (Henriette's confident & predecessor)
Christopher Plummer -- Good King
Johnathon Freeman -- Evil King
Jim Cummings -- Dragon
Rob Paulson -- Sir Simon (Henriette's betrothed & Beulah's son)
Bart Johnson -- Sir Leon
Paul Raye -- Sir Mandrake
Allison Janney -- Janice
Reba McEntire -- Lynn
Hayden Panettierre -- Victoria
Holland Taylor -- Older Henriette
Lalaine -- Lady Simona

Release Date:
June 1st, 2012

Directed by:
An absolute lunatic. Who would direct this?! Suggestions are welcome here, as well.
Edit:
Chris Sanders

Chris Sanders came to my mind, as well, though there were some others I thought of. You spoke first, so Sanders it is. I still need a more fitting title.

And thank you.

Yeah, Prudence. You're a genius. Oh, and I suggested Chris Sanders as a director of your movie.

There's been some great movies here (good job Prudence), so I can't believe I'm posting mine.
I hope you don't mind Prudence, but I'll use your layout.


By The Way- I do know I Love Lucy was produced in the fifties, not the 20s.



THUMBELINA

PLOT: Once upon a time (the Great Depression to be exact) there was a poor farm woman. One day a magical fairy appeared to the woman and gave her a seed. When the woman planted the seed, the day it bloomed, a little girl appeared in the middle of the flower. The woman named her Thumbelina. The story progresses as the little girl lives on the farm but strives something more. She sets out to the big city where she meets trouble in the former star, Franny Frog, the bachelors, The Frog Brothers, the prissy Buggy Sisters, and the Mr. Morton Mole. But she finds friends in Miss. Milly Mouse (and in her own words, "not related to the big cheese"), and Robyn, the blue bird. Finally, after many trails of faith and courage, Thumbelina finally makes her way into Central Park, and falls in love with the Prince. This musical ends with the Prince and Thumbelina flying away, with Thumbelina's new pair of wings to help her fly, of course.

Tagline: Don't Let Anyone Tell You You're Small

Cast-
Thumbelina- (I imagine her as a Snow White/Giselle, and ballerina-like movements)
The Farmer Woman- (I imagine her as an Ethel (I Love Lucy) character)
Franny Frog- (Our wicked city woman- get the I Love Lucy reference?)
The Frog Brothers- (think Don Bluth's frogs cross Ub Iwerks's Flip the Frog)
The Buggy Sisters- (think 20s valley girls)
Miss Milly Mouse- (Think Minnnie Mouse's mother, with a dash of Kitty from That 70s Show)
Mr Morton Mole- (Think Charles Mintz)
Robyn- (Somewhat hyper, 20s teenager.)
The Prince- (I can't decide whether he's a 30's prince or a 90's prince. I think he will be a mixture.)
The Fairy- (Somewhat similar to Pinocchio's Blue Fairy. She is also The Prince's mother)

Release date- April 2, 2020 (Hans Christian Andersen's 215'th birthday)


Directed by- Preferably me...

Label- Disney (duh)

I know about the my suggestion for the title of your movie was "The Not-So Friendly Ghost" so I'll make a better movie title, "The Knight & The Ghost."

How about "The Squiress & the Ghosts" as a title, instead? (Squiress is actually the word for a female squire.)

And no, I don't mind if anyone uses my form.
