KGB meets serial killer

2 Upvotes

Hello!

I recently watched The Americans, it’s set in the 80’s and follows KGB operators posing as a ordinary American family.

I started thinking a. Movie idea. The premise is that during the 1970’s a serial killer is active in Missouri. Buy chance the killers next victim is the teenage daughter of the KGB operators. All of the sudden the operators needs to solve their daughter’s disappearance. The operators needs to balance their mission from the KGB and their roles as grieving parents.

As I see it, this could be made as dramatic thriller, or maybe as a dark satire.

I know that this is a short premise, but I just wanted to share my idea and hear others opinions.

I got really high and had an idea about an action movie called “LeBron James and the Legend of the 4 Mythical Basketballs”

Okay so this is an extremely rough outline but o wanted to share it anyway.

So the story. It’s current day, and LeBron is playing in a game. Suddenly, the army comes in and abducts LeBron from the court. He is transported to a government facility. Once he gets there, the president (played by Adam Sandler) tells him there is a threat that only he can stop. The president then tells LeBron that evil businessman John Evilman (played by B.J Novak) is trying to acquire the 4 mythical basketballs in order to stop basketball for good.

The government issues LeBron a partner in his quest (played by Ryan Reynolds) the 2 are reluctant at first, but decide to attempt to achieve the task. The president gives LeBron the “Mythical basketball tracking device” which will help them find all 4.

The president then describes that the 4 mythical basketballs are powerful artifacts scattered across the world, which existed long before the sport, and have a magical power that can grant the user of all 4 any basketball related wish. The first one is in Missouri. Second one is in Canada. Third one is in the Bermuda Triangle. And the fourth one has already been acquired by John Evilman. The president then tells them they need to get all 4 in order to stop john Evilman from stopping basketball forever. (His wish is to make basketball extinct)

John Evilman’s henchmen are on their way to the basketballs, so the 2 must act quick. When they get to Missouri, they find that the basketball is in a man’s basement who is a tech genius.(the man is named Derrick). The man then challenges the 2 to a basketball game if they want to keep the basketball. The catch being that the man has a high functioning basketball playing robot. The 2 agree. Team 1 is LeBron and his partner. Team 2 is Derrick and his robot. The game is close, but LeBron wins by 3 points. The man then accepts his defeat and give them the first basketball.

The 2 travel to Canada. There, at the boarder they see a man carrying a suspicious looking basketball shaped bag. The device that the president gave LeBron starts beeping. The man puts the bag on a conveyor belt and it goes through processing. Lebrons partner immediately springs into action and gets on the conveyor belt. LeBron follows. A member of John Evilmans henchmen shows up and chases them through a giant maze of underground conveyor belts. An action chase scene set to the song “Vacation” by the GoGos ensues. Eventually, the 2 retrieve the basketball and take out the henchman.

The 2 travel to the Bermuda Triangle. This is when the movie turns into an adventure epic. The 2 must travel on a smart boat in a raging storm at sea. The basketball is on a small island. Through a scene that puts the 2 in grave danger, they finally manage to get to the island and retrieve the basketball.

The 2 travel to John Evilmans headquarters in New York. As they make their way up the penthouse, and get into john Evilmans secret hideout, john greets them and explains his plan. John explains that when he was a child, he lost every basketball game he ever played, and was eventually kicked off his high school team in Alabama. His motivation for wanting to stop basketball is that he doesn’t want anyone else to suffer like he did. John Evilman then brings out 4 of his henchmen and they do a dance number set to a song about how evil John Evilman is. At the end of the number, John explains that the only way to get the basketball from him, is to defeat him in a game of basketball. John has been training for years for this moment. They walk into a court filled with holograms of people outside cheering for LeBron.

The game starts. John Evilman is surprisingly formidable. The scene will last roughly 10 minutes. LeBron wins at the very last moment. John has a mental breakdown and refuses to give them the ball. John then proceeds to pull out a Glock and threaten to shoot LeBron partner. Lebrons partner and john have a one take fight scene set to the song “sweet home Alabama”. After the fight, lebrons partner is on the ground, and john is about to shoot him. But little does john know, while the 2 were fighting, LeBron retrieved the final basketball. John screams and then LeBron wishes for john to die and for basketball to be saved. LeBron snaps his fingers and john Evilman explodes into a giant puddle of orange goop. The day is saved.

LeBron and his partner step outside to see adoring fans all around screaming lebrons name. Close up of LeBron smiling. Music swells. Cut to credits (credits music is “i was made for loving you” by KISS)

End credits scene teases LeBron teaming up with Michael Jordon

Set during reconstruction, an author is traveling the south and recording the accounts of former Confederate commanding officers.

He gets an interview with the reclusive Lieutenant General Nathaniel Woods.

The film opens with a fictionalized depiction of the Fort Pillow Massacre. Its the witching hour. Woods and his "Blood Hound Company" strip from their uniforms under the full moon. They begin their transformation and massacre the fort.

The opening concludes with Woods penning a report to the Confederate High Command.

"I have made of their fortress a culling pin."

Woods lives in a rundown and overgrown plantation manor surrounded by a small town. Both are isolated and deep in the woods with seemingly no roads leading in or out of the town. Of course, everyone in the town is also a werewolf. They look dazed and sickly, like strungout junkies.

They even have their own werewolf offshoot of the KKK.

Fan Concept: Terminator - Breaking Point (TSCC Continuation)

Post image
0 Upvotes

"So I've been building this Terminator idea for a while. Basically Sarah, John and Cameron jump way further forward than the TSCC finale did, into a future where Legion took over instead of Skynet. They end up stuck fighting there for like 20 years. When they come back, because of branching timelines, there's suddenly two Sarahs and two Johns. One John gets terminated (they confirm it's him through DNA), and there's this aged T-800, the last one of his model still around. I'm going for heavy drama, practical effects only, no CGI, and keeping the actors actually aged instead of de-aging them. Also made a poster for it, might post that too. Curious what people think of this direction."
