What kind of movie would you like to see made? What would be the main idea of the movie?

I currently have two ides in thw roks, for really cheesy B-Movie type bastardizations of classic literature.  They involve kung fu lesbians, futuristic societies, and bounty hunters.  However, I don't think I'm going to reveal too many specifics, such as titles or plot points because, even though this sounds conceited, I think they're such good ideas someone might steal them before I finish the scripts.

A movie with absolutely NO plot whatsoever, just a bunch of reoccuring characters doing and saying things with absolutely no reason to or coherency to hold them together.

Well, you asked for it.

Marcel Duchamp & Man Ray did this sort of thing in the '30's. -- Anemic Cinema is one, there were others by the Dadaists.  If you haven't seen Andalusian Dog by Salvador Dali & Luis Buenuel, or its sequel (Name escapes me), then you may be inspired.
Also, Andy Warhol made a number of intentionally pointless films just like you describe.

If that's what you're looking for, I suggest
either SLACKER or GALAXIES ARE COLLIDING.
Both fit the description, and they are great,
IMHO.

Hey guys, I'm just putting this up for fun. Here is a logline for a kids movie. If you would like to develop this concept please let me know.  OK. This is off the top of my head so please don't kill me for content. OK..A pup French poodle is adopted by an American couple. The pup grows to be a wonderful house dog. As a sign of his maturity his owners send him to dog training school so that we will be an esteemed pup among his peers. When he gets to school he begins to communicate in French. The language is strange to him and questions his American heritage. He befriends  some dog friends and he's determined to find out where his language comes from. One of his dog friends looks up his language and tells him that it's French. He is now determined to go to France to find his true family. His friends finds a way to escape. Through their adventures they make their way to France. When they arrive they find famous pictures of a family of dogs that resemble him. He comes to find out that he is the air to a royal dog family and is the missing link to the next air on the royal dog thrown. His American owners come and find him and he now has to choose between the family he's always know or the family he never knew? If you like this script idea please let me know. I have about 1000 more swirling around my head.    Copyright by Talia Moore February 25, 2008.

Wow, all guests so far.

A nerd who plays a lot of World of warcraft gets stuck in the game and has to find a way out.  But it's right around when he was thinking about not playing anymore!!!  And because he never signed off of his acoount, he wins an awrd for longest playing time and gets a job at Blizzard where he just plays the game the whole time! hahaha.

The Ledgend of Zelda, THE MOVIE!!!!    of course, Link wouldn't speak during it, that's going against the whole game's concept.

Terry Pratchett's "Only You Can Save Mankind" is a little bit sort of slightly like this. However, it's a novel, not a movie, no Warcraft, etc....maybe not.

I may have to retract my Legend of Zelda idea.
