People wanted a challenge and I gave them one.  They complained that they didn't want it.  If a filmmaker asked you to write this script, would you turn him/her down?

And I didn't say comedy as the genre; I said thriller.

Actually, I think I need a little inspiration right now as I haven't been in the mood to write anything lately.  

I'm with ya, Pia.  Same deal here.  No motivation for anything lately.

Like James, I also hurt my back last week, and it's been driving me crazy with pain, uncomfortableness, and lack of sleep.  I'm in a shitty mood lately and everything seems to suck.

The weekend is here.  Let's hope it helps.

Was it thriller? Where'd I get comedy from?

And, honestly, I'd turn them down. I can't work off other people's ideas.

There is alot of potential in plumbers and conspiracy theorys.

That USB drive that Ursula flushed just before she got riddled with bullets...who's gonna find it? The plumber. Same with the good drugs, clown fish and who knows what else- All goes through the pipes.

Who spends alot of time in basements, digging around stuff? Plumbers. Who knows what they would find digging up some old pipes in the Hillsborough estate? Something that was never intended to see the light of day, perhaps. Something someone would kill to keep it that way.

Loglines and short synopsis. Come on. You can do it!

No way!  It's like carnivores and vegans discussing their philosophies all over again.

I like the idea of writing a script about clown fish though.

Quoted from Dreamscale I like the idea of writing a script about clown fish though.

Finding Nemo 2?

Killing Nemo...the horror version from Disney, you never expected to see.  Rated R for graphic fish violence, graphic fish sex and nudity, and fish drug and alcohol use.

I quote "Deer Woman"...

"That's just one of those sentences you never expect to hear."

Ha!  Funny!

Since Babz and a production company at InkTip were looking for

Genre: Thriller

Theme: Amnesia

why don't we do that?

Let's also decide on how many weeks we have. 6 weeks is good for me. What do you guys think?

I could work with that scenario.

Only thing, a number of movies come to mind..but I guess they're all quite old.

I'd be in if there's interest.

I say 4-6 weeks...whichever everyone agrees on.

Good job, Pia!

I was going to write something about amnesia, but I forgot what it was.

Otherwise, it's a same...but different. But with plumbers.

What are some other existing examples that should be considered? I remember the Bourne series using that scenario, as well as Long Kiss Goodnight. Total Recall.

Shattered comes to mind...

I used it as a suggestion since there was actual real production company looking for a script like that.
