Over the last 2-3 weeks there have been discussion threads presenting the idea of heads coming together from the forums to create a B-movie. I took it upon myself to moderate a script idea selection process. I hope I'm doing a good job at it. So far the complaints have been minimal. I asked for those interested in providing ideas for a movie to submit pitches of 25 words or less. Most kept to the guidelines, some went a little over, but overall everyone did a fantastic job adhering to the request.

There are over 30 pitches presented, preceded by the username of whoever pitched it. Whoever pitched the idea does not necessarily have to be the one who writes the script, but you should be at least involved with the development since it was your idea. There were a couple I made slight edits to to get it closer to the word count guideline. Sorry, had to do it. We want your votes to determine which ones will be considered for further development. Keep in mind this is a big experiment. We don't really know how far we're going to be able to take this, but if there is enough involvement, it could actually lead to a super-low-budget B-movie. Let's be honest, it'll probably be a Z-movie, but who cares, it's fun.

The idea has been repeated several times that the project become an anthology film, with several short movies pieced together. We're not there yet. It may be that that is what happens, but we'll explore that further when the pitches have been narrowed down. Please do your best to pick your favorite pitches, regardless of whether it is a good anthology piece or more of a full feature. Ideas can always be scaled back to accomodate an anthology if necessary.

Everyone is given three votes, and you can't change them. Since there are over 30 pitches, the goal is to narrow it down to the top 10, rather than the top 5 as it was with the first poll. This poll will run for 1 week. Let's get the party started.

Happy voting.

BTW, it is perfectly okay to post replies with such things as your comments on certain pitches, or even explaining your pitch a little further, as some folks had a more fleshed out idea but had to condense the pitch to keep it even and fair to everyone. These things do influence voting.

Sorry. One more thing. Please do your best to not vote only for your pitches if you pitched more than one. Picking one of yours is perfectly okay, but try to vote for others with your other two votes. I can't make anyone do this, of course, but try.

I feel like I'm turning into a control freak here. I promise I'm not.  BounceGiggle

 Cheers I just wanted to try and prevent people for just voting on theirs. Using one of your votes for yours is okay as far as I'm concerned. Again, nothing I can do to control it, just a request.

I voted for my own idea.  Twirling  Along with two others, Skull's Bermuda Triangle/hippie idea, and JimmyBob's alien pimp comedy.  I really like Jase's stock footage suggestion, except that it's more of a method of creating a movie on the cheap then it is a story.

If chosen I will write my own script.

Fingers crossed I would like to see your script... :)

Thanks, for voting on my silly L Ron Hubbard inspiration.

I really like xJASEEFx's wendigo pitch. I also voted for Berko's spiritual murder idea
and Flick James' pitch on the b-movie fan taking revenge on remakes.

I think I'm the only one so far who didn't vote for my own ideas.

I wanted to explain 2 of my pitches since there vague.

The superhero pitch:
Think of a schizophrenic running around in a costume who thinks he is saving people but end up killing them in silly comic book style or go all punisher on them. Could be a very dark comedy if done right.

The zombie lodge pitch:
Like dracula who turns other people into vampires when he bites them only a zombie instead the twist is though he seems normal he has to eat human flesh in order to keep he or she from turning back into a mindless zombie.


Also I voted for only one of mine Stuffed animals. The other was the twin sister and animal revenge both one I relate to as I have a twin sister. The whole pet cemetery sorta theme but only the guys deserves it.

I voted for Flick James' B-Movie Remake Serial Killer suggestion, Feiyen's stuffed animal one and my own Stock Footage one. Actually I think I'd prefer annoying characters meeting their demise to stock footage over the unlikely teen heroes one. Glad someone liked the Wendigo pitch...I'm thinking of attempting to do a story with that in another form at some point.
