Ok..you've just won the lottery..worth millions..what fanfilm would you make?

For me it would be a remake of the 1933 King Kong, using stop motion.

Second would be Superman..set in the 1930's/40's Metropolis with an Alex Ross looking Superman.

Remember, you have millions to play with.

Does it have to be a fan film? I'd get the rights to Dead Space and make a movie set after the 2nd game. A more game universe accurate Resident Evil. Astronauts In Trouble the movie. Live action Final Fantasy movie that isn't crap. Robotech the movie, battletech movie, shadowrun movie or a good version of a William Gibson cyberpunk movie.

Reason I said fan film is so you didn't have to spend money on the rights. Just make a movie for your own enjoyment, but with a HUGE budget.

But if you had enough to buy the rights AND make the movie...great!

I would also remake EPIII. More Vader. More Empire.

Astronauts in Trouble: Live From The Moon

I think that might cost more than a few million to film Larry lol. Though you could film the moon exterior scenes live from the moon but the rest you'd have to film in studio.

Battletech movie. Hell, I just want a 1:1 mech bay set with a couple 1:1 mechs in it.

Actually, forget the props, with a few million spare dollars I could buy the Battletech IP, minus the VG rights that MS has their grubby little mitts on.

lol. True. That would let you make a ton of merchandise including the movie. I bet for that you could save Shadowrun from ruination too, except for the game rights which MS has and squanders.

Well, i've got a couple crossovers in my head i've been meaning to write. One's a Doctor Who/Star Trek crossover. The Tardis ends up getting sucked into the ST universe, and lands on a new experimental Federation ship...and they end up fighting the Borg....And it turns out the Borg Queen is Miss Hartigan (from "The Next Doctor") who, along with a bunch of Cybermen, instead of being destroyed in the Time Vortex, got thrown into the ST universe's Delta Quardrant in the 1800s, and became the Borg.

Also, i've got a Highlander/Fallout3/Fallout New Vegas idea that i just started working on...that involves a random immortal as the main charecter. (There are WAY too many MacLeods dagnabit!) He ends up finding out that Caesar (Play New Vegas to find out who he is) is an Immortal as well, and the fun begins. (like i said..i havn't been working on that one too long, so very few set details)

I can't believe i forgot a Fallout movie until you mentioned it but mine would be set in the old style before Bethesda took over. It's just not the same.

I'd also hire all the RPF to work on it.

lol. There's enough talent on here to get it done. I'd probably be the guy in charge of getting coffee lol. Terminator 5: This one won't suck.

This would have to be the best pool of talent out there. RPF crew all the way and I would get Guy Cowen to build my Kong after seeing his Stopmo Tauntaun!

Nahhh, just do the whole thing on a big sound stage like NASA did back in July of 1969.







I'm kidding! Sheesh!

I'd check if they couldn't do a dramatization of the making of Metropolis, much in the same way as RKO 281, rather than a remake.

Well... if I had around 100 million to blow, I'd do a Star Trek the way I see it. I don't mind the alternate universe thing... but it would look and feel more like Star Trek... the characters would be more like themselves (or Kirk and Scotty would), the Enterprise would look more like the Enterprise, and there would be more of moral story with human exploration in it.

Otherwise, I'd like to do "The Killing Joke."

I'm in. When do you win the millions?

For me it would be the Icewind dale trilogy books by Salvatore. Also, i second the idea about Shadowrun, or maybe Star Frontiers type movie.

Uncharted. The second game of course, has alot of potential. And Halo but god I'd need more than a few mil for that one.

I've always wanted to see a Predator stalk survivors returning home from a Civil War battle...kinda Cold Mountain meets Predator. Yeah.

“Fool Me Twice”, a Firefly Fan Film
But I'd also shoot the hour-long follow-on I'm writing now,
making it a ninety to one hundred minute film.
(What follows is a direct lift from my Firefly Fan Film Roundup.)
SerenityMovie.net :: View topic - Firefly Fan Film Roundup

Fool Me Twice | Facebook

This is an introduction for those who haven’t seen this before, and an update for those previously involved in the creative process.

The basic story centers around an Alliance sergeant, at the end of his career,
sent to squelch former-Independent businessmen who have turned to smuggling
under UAP rule.
This is NOT what the sergeant fought for (and watched his friends die for)
in the war to unite the planets.
That personal conflict is brought to a head in a meeting with the ex-Browncoats.
Our sergeant notes, “Yeah, well, there’s plenty for whom the cost of Unification exceeds the value.”

The story is an introduction of characters who could have many more adventures in the Firefly ‘verse.
Sergeant Aaron Wyatt is an Alliance noncom who is more Independent than Alliance.



Lieutenant Amber Fitzpatrick is a local sheriff on Hera whose tenure pre-dates the Alliance takeover.



Colonel David Anthony is an Alliance officer whose rise reflects influence more than competence.
Quintan Shang's brother was killed by the Purplebellies in the war. Makes her a might resentful. She's also a bit brash.

Buddy Lee Creek is a tough Independent who can take care of business with a pen or a gun, which ever is appropriate.
Rancher Dan Anderson was one of the Generals who made the decision to surrender at Serenity Valley; a scar on his soul that hasn't healed yet.



Smuggler Randall Rourke is a mountain of a man who served honorably in the Independent Army.
And, of course, a whole slew of secondary and background characters for Browncoats to play.*





The stumbling block for getting "Fool Me Twice" made is my lack of filmmaker connections.
Especially filmmakers who want to make a Firefly fan film.
I feel that step one is to find a producer to take charge of rounding up talent.
I need actors, wardrobe supervisor, a DP, sound person and the aforementioned producer to fill in everything I forgot.
I need to reconnect with the gentleman who started making my CGI space craft and see if he would like to finish it, or pass it off to someone else.
So, consider this a “Help Wanted” ad for east-coast Browncoats.
I’d like to have enough people, with the right combination of skills,
to hold a few production meetings around the third week in August 2010,
with the intention of shooting in October/ November 2010.

*Secondary Characters:
Alliance Corporal
Alliance Heavy MG crew (2 Fed troops)
Alliance Guards (2 Feds in Colonel’s CP)
Local law enforcement officer
Smuggler on radio
Independent guard
IAV Dortmunder Fire Control Tech
Waitress in a NOT-Alliance-friendly bar

Background Characters:
4 Alliance Feds (shootout)
1 Alliance medic (shootout)
5 different Alliance Feds (outside CP)
Background Independents (as many as will supply their own costume!)

Fool Me Twice Locations

Locations for “Fool Me Twice consist of :
A shootout in the woods,
a meeting and journey along a path,
the main confrontation/ conference in a barn,
a makeshift Alliance headquarters,
a fire control center on an Alliance Interstellar Vessel,
and a NOT Alliance-friendly bar.

The location shots for the shootout in the woods, the meeting and journey along a path,
the main confrontation/ conference in a barn, and the makeshift Alliance headquarters,
were scouted on a fifty-acre farm outside of Gettysburg.



I expect the shooting schedule to take place over two weekends.
Barn interior shots in the morning so dew and light aren’t an issue,
the gunfight scenes during midday, and the path scenes in the afternoon.



My expectation is that the bulk of the filming would be done the first weekend,
with the command post scene, pick-up and fill in work done the following weekend.



The fire control center scene should be a single day, with two main characters and a couple of background extras.





The NOT Alliance friendly bar should be a single day shoot, preferably at a real restaurant or bar that is closed for the day. Shots would be done in two distinct phases. The first would be a number of takes showing the décor and patrons of the bar. The atmosphere shots would be done with everyone talking as people do in a bar. The second shots would be of the principal characters. The background characters would pantomime their conversations so the mics could pick up the principals’ dialog. Background chatter could be added back in, in post-production.

So, the shooting schedule for “Fool Me Twice” should take four weekends.
Two of those weekend shoots are at the mercy of the weather, two are interior scenes that aren’t affected by weather.
