Title: Reader Feedback: Interactive Bad Movie
Post by: Mortal Envelope on October 27, 2007, 09:15:15 AM
Please post opinions, reactions, likes, and dislikes on our latest Interactive Bad Movie.  Feel free to suggest any names for the title as we haven't made that decision yet.  I myself am having a good time reading and writing along with Mr. Briggs, but we could use a couple more writers (don't be shy!).  If you find yourself lost, don't worry, just take a character (or make one), create a subplot and run with it.

Thanks to Briggs, here is a quick run down of the cast we've created thus far:

Hope to hear from ya...thanks for reading!

Seems to be a more '90s style interactive bad movie, with then b-list celebs, jungle setting contrasts with big city with evil jungle monster running amok, runaway experiments (Watchers sequels, Primal Force, DNA, Predator 2, Solo...). As such, I think this IBM should have a title that suggests Imminent Danger, like Imminent Danger, perhaps?

Envelope, the cast doesn't enlarge when clicked on, so I'll provide the link until you notice :wink: http://img136.imageshack.us/img136/4614/charsheet2cr1.png (http://img136.imageshack.us/img136/4614/charsheet2cr1.png) (Note, this is not that accurate a few chapters later)

In case anyone wants was wondering where the names come from, Engelem and Lzesl are anagrams of Mengele and Szell, the two angels of Auschwitz. Roy, Guy, and Peace kind of came from a dream I had, as did the characters themselves. Commander Jim sounds like a good wrestler-turned-marine name. Randy Phearson is my way of saying "Random person", and Rebecca is just a random name. "The Outsider" is an obvious reference to the bad creature from the WATCHERS movies. Hamburg, Branckenberg, and Vernon I came up with off the top of my head.

Sorry for not updating in longer than usual, but I've been busy with other stuff since fall break ended, and in my feeble defense, I guess I was hoping for someone new to post :tongueout:

We really need to show that Outsider's face, but I think I should leave that task to Envelope, I keep thinking of, well, an Outsider (Watchers) clone :P . So the plot thickens, it seems that Don Don is really a wicked step-uncle!

I'm gonna leave the beast's face description up to you (or whomever posts next) - but I did set it up for ya :)

Nice touch with where this is going...we're getting so many characters that I'm loosing track of some of them lol but that's actually a good thing.  Poor Guy is still in a cave some where with an old guy and Peace hasn't been seen for awhile.  All good funny stuff though!

And I hope you don't mind I went a little godzilla with the beast once he arrived in Vegas.  I don't know why but I keep picturing Doomsday from Superman as the beast, at least in his mannerisms lol, but i like the Watchers touch as well.

The Outsider is an "Elephino". What is it? 'Ell if I know! All I know is it gets whatever seat it wants. The Outsider has a face and form now, but we still need an actress for Rebecca.

I started knocking off characters like crazy this time, Jim, Horace, Gwedo, Vernon... but I'll leave it to you or the next guy as to whether they stay knocked off :smile:

Well we have enough subplots going on that you should be able to post no problem.  In my case, if I post something that messes up the flow, the next person could always play the "it was a dream/illusion/hallucination/evil twin" card to undo any damage I might have done lol.

Post by: Doc Daneeka on November 13, 2007, 03:56:58 PM
You haven't missed up yet, Envelope :smile:

And Scott's posting, looks like all the good 'ol boys are back in town! Umm, one thing, The Major wasn't actually with Keenan, the Major was in the forest/jungle near Engelem's lab. Well, I suppose according to the rest of the story South America and the Las Vegas desert are within walking distance :bouncegiggle:

I think he the Major can to Keenan in a dream or something.  :smile:

Post by: Mortal Envelope on November 14, 2007, 11:30:58 AM
Well, there are a few ways we could explain that...like any ol' bad movie, a dude could suddenly pull out teleportation powers out his arse...or even better, it could be an evil (or good) twin.  But like most movies...yes, South America, Vegas, and Siberia are logically within walking distance :)

Everyone's making great contributions...I just reread the entire story and find myself laughing hard at all the twists and turns.  So far we've gone from South America to Vegas and now to somewhere in Europe (next poster gets to decide where).  Keep 'em comin...and lurkers/readers feel free to join in anytime!

Post by: Mortal Envelope on November 17, 2007, 08:11:51 PM
That's cool - can't wait to read your addition/take on things.  I was afraid I stopped the story dead in its tracks with my last pot since no one has continued yet...I figured it was a good way to get all/most of the major characters together...even if many of them aren't significant anymore...or background characters/secondary/whatever.  I'm kinda havin fun with my strange little Guy/Scratch subplot...I'm sure the easily-exploding pinto will come into play eventually...and we can only guess what's in the violin case heheheeh.  So sorry if I messed anything up with that...you can easily change things around or undo it.


Title: Re: Reader Feedback: Interactive Bad Movie
Post by: Doc Daneeka on November 17, 2007, 08:55:24 PM
Well your newest (well most of the recent chaps) was... weird to say the least :buggedout: but the only reason I haven't written is because my outline concerns Peace and I don't want to mess 316 up.


Title: Re: Reader Feedback: Interactive Bad Movie
Post by: 316zombie on November 17, 2007, 10:26:56 PM
oh geez! i didn't mean to hold things up!sorry!now i'm off to post,i hope my part works,lol!

i don't believe this,i just typed out my peace chapter,and it disappeared!!!GGGRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!i'll try again...


Title: Re: Reader Feedback: Interactive Bad Movie
Post by: Doc Daneeka on November 18, 2007, 07:11:13 PM
My latest is a bit disjointed, messy, exclamation riddled, etc... but it's nice to get back to writing longer chapters.

sorry about the oddness...I think it has a point though heh.  Cool contribution 316zombie...I like the mosquito hybrid.

thank you! i watched both version of the fly recently,can you tell? :wink:


Title: Re: Reader Feedback: Interactive Bad Movie
Post by: Mortal Envelope on November 21, 2007, 11:25:06 AM
Yeah I like the mosquito hybrid secret monster weapon angle...reminds me of wasp-women for some reason.  Anyway, hope you guys don't mind I'm moving the story quickly across Europe...if I missed any places you wanted to elaborate on, feel free to use flashbacks or somethin.  I hope I didn't divert things by destroying the library and providing a back up...I wanted some extra motivation for why they would be going across the continent other than just chasing the monster.  Like I said before, anything you don't like can be changed; just chock it up as a dream/vision/etc.  Something Briggs posted recently gave me ideas, which is why they're getting close to Transylvania...I figure that would be a great setting.


Title: Re: Reader Feedback: Interactive Bad Movie
Post by: Doc Daneeka on November 22, 2007, 07:36:01 PM
Meh, I don't know enough about geography to make any good detailed foreign scenes anyway. It does all take place in Romania... budget constraints :bouncegiggle:. I wish Corey, Scott, or Zombie would post again, I feel in a rut. Not your fault though, no need to activate any of those plot devices you keep mentioning :wink:.


Title: Re: Reader Feedback: Interactive Bad Movie

Title: Re: Reader Feedback: Interactive Bad Movie
Post by: Mortal Envelope on November 24, 2007, 11:55:20 AM
Yeah we need more mixin-it-up from other writers.  316zombie your last post was short but good - I laughed out loud on that one...I'm surprised they didn't split up. 

I'll wait for a few more contributions before I jump in again.

Post by: Doc Daneeka on November 27, 2007, 08:50:30 PM
Added a recap-type chapter, since I don't want to mess up Envelope's idea :smile:, I have ideas about what will come next myself!


Title: Re: Reader Feedback: Interactive Bad Movie
Post by: Mortal Envelope on November 28, 2007, 01:40:11 PM
Hahha nice touch! A good character rebrief was definitely called for.  Um...I have no real ideas set in stone so feel free to do whatever.  I do like what you've done with Scratch but I guess I should have mentioned that my original idea had something to do with the golden fiddle (LOL) from the "Devil went down to Georgia" song but then again, we're not in Georgia...unless the group continues eastward towards the former Russian province hehe. 

Anyway...I like it...Guy is being tempted...will he submit, keep repelling, learn some guitar-to-the-max bust-outta-the-wall guitar solos, or will he betray his psuedo friends for illogical reasons?  Will Roy and Rebecca become an item?  Will Melvin become the less ignored nerd (sans Rebecca) turned High School hero?  Will Don Don stop or start hearing voices again.  Will Hamburg come up with a plan? 

Who knows!?  Stay tuned!  Same Bat time, same Bat channel!

Note: I'm hoping to let one or two people post the next chapters before I jump in again...I'm formulating an idea and am not ready to post it just yet.  Keep em comin Zombie!

the recap chapter!i hadn't read it before my comes to mind post,lol!now i really have to think on this a bit,with input...is that okay,btw?my best friend has some ideas,but no puter,so i'd like to incorporate his ideas with mine?if that's acceptable?


Title: Re: Reader Feedback: Interactive Bad Movie
Post by: Mortal Envelope on November 30, 2007, 05:16:51 PM
absolutely!

and I just wanted to add that the Melvin nerd character has become my favorite whipping boy hehehe.  The main group just arrived at a hideous evil castle - hope that doesn't disprupt any plans.

Title: Re: Reader Feedback: Interactive Bad Movie
Post by: 316zombie on November 30, 2007, 05:47:44 PM
i wondered where he went..left a peace post,back tomorrow,possibly with a new character(michael has a rather nefarious idea,heheheee!)


Title: Re: Reader Feedback: Interactive Bad Movie
Post by: Mortal Envelope on December 01, 2007, 10:14:29 AM
No biggie about Goatee Ninja - he's kind of a joke character that sneaks in and out of the story as needed.  I'm thinking of killing him off again; I know you kinda did before.  Maybe he's wearing a red Star Trek shirt and keeps getting killed to somehow mysteriously come back over and over at strange times?  Doesn't really matter; he's not that important of a character...but picturing a ninja with a cutout mask that reveals a goatee does make me laugh.


Title: Re: Reader Feedback: Interactive Bad Movie
Post by: 316zombie on December 02, 2007, 07:09:10 PM
ah!like the chick in memory banks,lol!so,i'm a bit confused here,are roy and them in the castle?i'm assuming that nif that's true...uummm...i'll take a wild leap and say they got there through one of the factory doors?i just watched window into paris...this could work....anyway,what do you think of an exmilitary dude with a bevy of amazonian redheads?he wants big bertha's blood for stomping his cat,and his(herb)garden...he really liked that cat....btw,they are australian,at least the redheads...


Title: Re: Reader Feedback: Interactive Bad Movie
Post by: Mortal Envelope on December 03, 2007, 10:48:12 AM
Every story can make good with some Austrailian redheads! hehe.

Um...unless i messed up and forgot to add it, the heroes +1 (I say +1 cuz Melvin isn't a hero) left the factory and walked up into the mountains.  I was gonna do a whole Hostel-like spoof at the factory but that never materialized. 

Currently (as of my last post anyway) they're just standing at the outside gates of the iron fence that surrounds the castle estate.  I wanted to make full use of the cliches of Transylvania and all.  They were basically following a hologram of the Ellifino Outsider Beast and Bertha.

Title: Re: Reader Feedback: Interactive Bad Movie
Post by: Doc Daneeka on December 05, 2007, 08:06:06 PM
I think I am past due for a new chapter... But what shall I do? Should I kill Goatee nin myself? and what shall happen afterwards? It seems I am trapped to make yet another new character to further complicate things, the question is, what is his motive? And then... what is the purpose for killing Goatee ninja, only to have another character take his place? :buggedout:


Title: Re: Reader Feedback: Interactive Bad Movie
Post by: 316zombie on December 06, 2007, 05:00:57 PM
fire away with anything you like,love!our new characters are on hold for awhile,we lost a dear friend and will be gone taking care of the family until monday,at least..i look forward to reading your new stuff!


Title: Re: Reader Feedback: Interactive Bad Movie
Post by: Mortal Envelope on December 07, 2007, 11:18:38 AM
316zombie, sorry to hear about your loss. Take your time on posting - our story can wait until you're ready - that thread will always be here.  Your input has been great so far -wish there were more like ya jumpin in.

Briggs: remember this is a bad movie and I wouldn't worry yourself about any character motives or replacing them - let your creativity flow.  I just set him up simply because there are already a lot of "good guy" characters and I'm having trouble remembering/differentiating them all.   Plus, the loss of some characters could provide nonsensical motivation for some of the others.

Heck, anything goes really - we're at a gothic castle where any number of things can happen: evil (or good) twins could show up, secret affairs revealed, some experiment inside could merge characters, a bunch could die and be reborn, they could meet the beasties and thin out the roster, or we could have more evil lackies inside the castle to deal with, or the whole darn place could be a hologram.  Heck there could be a teleportation device inside, a time travel thingy, or they could break in just to find some nice folks having a picnic lol.  We could also keep killing him off and having him show up over and over again (whipping boy Kenny syndrome).

But yeah, overall, this is a bad movie and sensible coherent character motivations are almost prohibited :)  I say do your worst; heck I would like to see an unexpected betrayal (not Guy...at least not yet) and a little thinning of the cast. 

In my case, I'm at some point going to have to get some more action sequences ready.  Can't wait to read your stuff guys...take your time.

You mustn't forget that I am a wannabe professional writer, and as such consider it a challenge to bring continuity to the convoluted! (I am preparing a thesis on where the Neon Maniacs come from and exactly why they live so close to the Golden Gate Bridge :teddyr:) I don't try to come across as a square, it's just my styyyyle :teddyr:

Anywho, I got started on the next chapter tonight, hope to finish by sometime tomorrow. I have decided there will indeed be a new player with what may just be the beginnings of an interesting past with the doctors. Yes, he too shall be an anagram of an infamous German.

briggs,i didn't know you wanted to be a writer,how cool!good luck to you,you're quite good,as is  mortal..this is weird,what should i call you both?me,i'm bear,or zombie,whichever you prefer...
looking forward to the new stuff!michael says he's holding the australians for a later date,or script,depending on his state of mind,lol,he's not dealing well with 3 teenage girls :drink:.we'll see when i get back....he may feel the need to write by then!


Title: Re: Reader Feedback: Interactive Bad Movie
Post by: Mortal Envelope on December 11, 2007, 11:02:36 AM
That all sounds good!  I am in the writing business as well although it doesn't count at all since it's nothing to do with creativity and I tend to keep things rather informal and slang-filled on a message board :)  Glad to know there are other writers 'round these parts :)  Anyway, I'm all game for what you have in store...would love to see some significant flashbacks or something; we haven't had any for awhile.  Can't wait to see/read what happens next.

Man, Briggs - hope I didn't ruin your new villain with the 80s reference and makin him a vampire with his plan to doublecross the evil doctor - it just kinda hit me and I had to do it.   Let me know if you had something totally else in mind and I will find a way to undo it.  Still, I find it pretty hilarious lol.


Title: Re: Reader Feedback: Interactive Bad Movie
Post by: Doc Daneeka on December 16, 2007, 09:47:18 AM
It perfectly normal Mortal, you know how long I take to get my thoughts together before posting :wink:. Admittedly the 80s/monster thing was a bit out of the sky (What first came to mind is that you were doing another time travel thing/reference to SPO, having Anchimen the evil alt. universe Jin!), but it is just as much your story as it is mine. I think I can definitely work with this. :cheers: Well, the vampire/betrayal part anyway. Richard Liberty doesn't really have the hair or the bod to be an 80s man

Post by: Doc Daneeka on December 16, 2007, 01:53:38 PM
Yes, the first two were started by Clockwork Canary and the 3rd by Corey Heldpen. Mortal Envelope tried to start a short one before Imminent Danger (Which is where our Melvin Nossex character comes from), but it never got off the ground and he requested it be deleted. Of the previous IBMs, only Super Porcupine Omelette was finished (Actually with 2 alternate endings, my version was epic!).

Unstarted pilot - Can't find 'er ._. it concerned a man being chased by a something and not much else

Super Porcupine Omelette - http://www.badmovies.org/forum/index.php/topic,113110.0.html (http://www.badmovies.org/forum/index.php/topic,113110.0.html)

thank you so much! you know,i started a game like this in an ebay group,ours was a romance/scifi/moster movie called the moss people,we never finished it,but it was fun while it lasted!maybe we could rewrite that for the next script....now,off to read!!


Title: Re: Reader Feedback: Interactive Bad Movie
Post by: Mortal Envelope on December 17, 2007, 12:46:41 PM
I've been wanting to read SPO again too - thanks for the link.  Actually, I was quite involved with a few other interactive movies (parts I through IV) at the agonybooth last year but I don't go there too much these days.

Too bad Corey's abruptly stopped -it could have been a good one too.  Anyway, I like where this one's going but I think Briggs gets to start the next one :)

Sorry for the big wait! The new chapter is bit verbose though I can safely say this one's length makes up for previous tardiness, plus contrary to the norm with me I believe I have not sacrificed quality for quantity here :smile:.

Truly ends on an apocalyptic note this installment, can good still triumph? heck, can slightly sane evil still triumph??


Title: Re: Reader Feedback: Interactive Bad Movie
Post by: Mortal Envelope on December 22, 2007, 08:06:56 AM
Briggs, that's the best chapter yet!  I'll have to give it some time before I write my next piece.  Nice work with Bruno too -I was laughing my arse off.  I plan to take care of Melvin pretty soon.  I figure it might be 10-little-indians build up soon (or is it build down). 

I was thinking that the new evil vampire doctor could have a different retro disguise on in every scene he's in (70s disco, 50s leave it to beaver, roaring 20s, 90s grunge) just to give him some more flare.   

Anyway, nice work - that was very entertaining.

Glad to hear you got your power back.  I Like the events in the story but I'm not sure who's exactly still alive.  If I remember correctly:

John Cena dude (can't remember exactly but I think he died earlier)
Trucker dude died in an explosion (unless I missed his return -can't remember)
Goatee Ninja dies at the castle gate
Bruno is killed by ghoulies
Roy crushed in head with a frying pan, courtesy of Bertha
Bertha (in Melvin's Body): shocked to death on science table
Lsezl drained to death by Dr. Vampire
Hamberg trampled to death in stampede

So that leaves:
Rebecca - the agent/detective and sister to Peace
Peace -the chick zombie and sister to Rebecca
Guy -the nerd zombie tempted by the devil
Don Don - the mob boss and a former roommate
Randy the disgruntled and recently fired agent/detective(?)
Brackenback the conspiracy nut
Melvin (in Bertha's Body) -the inconsequential nerd
Keenan the military boozer/air strike commander
Marenghi the British Librarian

Mansquito the hybrid henchman
The Outsider Ellifino
Dr. Anchimen the evil disfigured cyborg-armed scientist
Dr. Engelem the evil retro-fetish vampire scientist (say that again with a straight face I dare ya lol)
and Scratch

I'm sure I don't have all the details correct (correct me if I'm wrong) but that seems to be where the characters stand at this point.  I consider Guy, Randy, Rebecca, and Peace to be our primary characters but anything can happen at this point :)  - great story ...keep em comin

Well it seems Hamburg will die soon if not now, but Commander Jim (The John Cena dude) is injured and comatose but alive, I have a stupid little plan for him, if coming continuity allows :wink:. Psycho trucker survived, he was the one who brought Peace to the land bridge between Europe and California, and Roy, being a malleable zomboid, survived his hit. Of course Gwedo, Major Major Major Major Major Major, and Subordinate Vernon were not so lucky. Umm, what else? Randy is a scientist and Don is his step uncle, but besides that I think you covered all the bases.

Thanks for picking it up Mortal, I was having writer's troubles for a while there, trouble not being having no ideas, trouble was my latest chapter would have finished the story :tongueout: . I'll post that like I did my other huge ending, after this one :thumbup:

Question: Who is Jessica? Random audience member? :question:

After the main story is over!

Post by: Mortal Envelope on December 31, 2007, 05:21:35 PM
Yeah you can do an ending anytime.  I have ideas of my own for my version of the ending - gonna do a "where are they now" after my ending as well.

Good stuff all - um, Jessica...lol...I think I wrote in a new character, then backspaced during an edit/revision (before I posted) then forgot that I had deleted it and brougth her back up again...so yeah, as far as the story is concerned...she's an over-zealous audience member lol!  Kill her at any time too.

Briggs, Zombie, since we're getting close to the end, let's start talking about the next one.  I'm hoping you both will be involved (and hopefully also the previous writers and/or new ones will jump in).  We should decide a new setting, tone, and all that before we post the next Interactive Bad Movie. 

I gather Briggs, you might want a more serious tone for the next one?  Since Imminent Danger is so zaney and unpredictable, maybe we should get more serious in the next one.  I was also thinking that maybe we could each create our own main character -not sure about that yet.  What you guys think?  Lurkers ...any input?

What will it be? cop drama, slasher, suspense, mystery, beach party, superhero movie, alien invasion, demon possesion, cannibal rednecks, disco zombies, after school special, special forces flick, robots-gone-mad, sherbet frankenstein, war flick, haunted house, sport flick, rockband flick, paranormal flick, animal attack, gang flick, or some crazy hybrid mixture of three of the above.

That's one hell of a starter list! I don't know about specifics, I tend to get too specific :lookingup:, I just start with figuring the decade we're going to do and listing hot topics for that. I don't mind tone of the next flick just follow the tone of the time-period, but use plenty of creative freedom, even the "kickass 80s" SPO got pretty dark near the ending!

So I think what we need to figure first is what film era we should set it in? 2000s Asylum style? 1970s Grindhouse? 1960s Hammicus? Surreal 1920s?

Our own main character? Does that mean we should each introduce a main character, follow our own plot line and have them merge in some crazy Pulp Fiction/Spookies style? Or just collaborate pre-story in order to make a main guy?

"Our own main character? Does that mean we should each introduce a main character, follow our own plot line and have them merge in some crazy Pulp Fiction/Spookies style?"

Yeah ...so we each have a character to call our own...but they don't necessarily have to be in different plots, but that could be pretty interesting too.  We could each write about whatever characters but we'd have our own character for focus.

As for the next one's time period, I vote we go with 2000s that have sequences of dreams or flashbacks using older styles.  But I'm cool with whatever, but I know little of some of those film styles myself.

i like the individual main characters,and the 2000/flashbacks ideas!me,i'd mix it up with a haunted house and ghosts! btw,what's a sherbet frankenstein?i think i'd like that too,lol!

But is anyone going to finish the current one? :question: I'm usually the slow writer!

Post by: Mortal Envelope on January 08, 2008, 10:29:54 AM
Well, I felt like I was hoggin the story and figured I'd wait a few posts to continue...but I guess I could add a little something soon.

Post by: Mortal Envelope on January 19, 2008, 12:41:47 PM
Went ahead and did my ending (well I'm gonna go back and add some more after I reread the whole story) - it's my "Super Hero Happy Ending" meaning that everyone turns good and they join a team to fight crime for ever after.  I'm doing a "where are they now" kinda thing in the credits, which turned out to be kinda fun.  Can't wait to read your endings but don't feel you have to end it just yet it you don't want.


Title: Re: Reader Feedback: Interactive Bad Movie
Post by: Doc Daneeka on January 19, 2008, 01:40:37 PM
I like the happy ending idea, which leaves room for my ultra-depressing poignant ending! :teddyr: (My favorite part is Horace Brackenberg's fate :smile: ) You forgot about Roy's fate though, and what about getting Bertha back to her original form? Sorry I kinda let it fizzle there, I was multi-tasking the best I could with my other script and couldn't decide on a piece of music to play in the climax :tongueout:

Post by: Mortal Envelope on January 20, 2008, 12:58:14 AM
It's ok.  As far as Roy, I hadn't finished with the characters yet...couldn't remember who all I was forgetting.  I have yet to decide what happens to Roy.

I'll get into the next interactive flick whenever you're ready to set it up.  But take your time finishing this; I definitely understand coursework taking a priority.  Sometimes I miss school but I'm sure I'd change my mind quick if I went back lol.  Can't wait to read the wrapups of this one!
