Movie Idea, and I need YOUR help!?

Okay guys, I need your help. I had a dream that I was watching a





movie, and the movie seemed so interesting to me that I would like to





turn that movie into a reality. This may actually be real, considering





the fact that I plan to be a movie director/writer.





Basically, the idea is for a number of people that have somehow





obtained special powers (not all in the same matter, necessarily) are





recruited to work for a strict organization called "Z-Corp", and even





though they are afraid to admit it to eachother, it is very strict and





rutheless. A few people are going to die in this movie.





I need help coming up with more characters. I have a completed





character (I don't have a name for her yet. Sharki?) She is the main





character, created by a top-secret genetic company responsible for





genetic engineering. She has shark DNA, giving her Sharp teeth and a





flexible jaw (allowing her to bite part of somebody's skull off, part





of an arm, etc.)., Gills (for breathing underwater), a lateral line (a





line along her sides that increases her sense of touch underwater).


Her weakness is that she goes into a mindless, rampant, rage whenever





she smells blood. Z-Corp keeps her on a tight chain to keep her from





escaping their power, for they have a special medicine that she takes





to keep her from going berserk.





I also have another vague idea for one. He is a man who can turn into





some sort of material that can pass through walls and other solid





objects. His weakness: he will dissolve within 30 seconds if he is





ever submerged in water while in his liquid state. He dies by





sacrificing himself. What happens is that some of the characters are





trapped in a large container that is submerged underwater, and water





is slowly leaking in. He sacrifices himself by going through the side





of the container and flipping a switch taht opens the container so





that everyone can swim out.





One last idea; one of the women characters gets wounded and is taken





to the medical facilities in Z-Corp. While there, they implant a small





exploding chip in her wound that will cause the wound to start





bleeding profusely. (I have no idea what this woman char will be named





or what her powers will be.)


The woman and another person (Whether the other person be a guy or a





girl, they are in love with eachother.) escape from Z-corp and go into





hiding.


Z-corp is able to contact them by calling one of teh people's cell





phones. While they are in a hotel room, the leader of Z-corp detonates





the bomb and causes the woman's wound to bleed. The boss calls them





and tells them that they have no choice but to return to Z-corp if she





wants to live. The wounded woman tells her to just leave her and flee





herself, but the other person ignores her warning and takes her back





to Z-corp, where they are captured. (either that, or teh otehr person





flees, letting the person either live or die. What do you think?)





Okay guys. Any ideas for characters? Any suggestions on the plot?





Questions?

Movie Idea, and I need YOUR help!?
I think that you should name the movie "Z-Corp"...after all, that IS where the story is taking place.





As for characters, I think that you should have one character who looks completely normal and all of his fellow classmates (I don’t know if that is the right word to use) don’t really know what he does (as in, what his power is). So he many people don’t like him because they see him as an outsider who has no right being among them. But they later find out that he has the power to heal practically anything (wounds, sickness...that sort of thing but he is unable to heal himself or anything else connected to him...like family members). As far as his behavior, I think that you should make him really quiet and polite, someone who prefers to remain in the shadows. He is in love with a girl who can disguise herself as almost any tree or animal, and is really protective of her. His name should be something like Glave or Kartler. His weakness should be that he was born with a bad limp and because of that, he cannot fight well. Also, he has a bit of a hot temper, so when he feels threatened (or feels like one he loves is threatened) he can go a little crazy (even if the person he feels threatened by is an authority figure or a much more powerful foe).





The girl that Glave/Kartler likes could be named Tasha or Sander. As I mentioned, she could have the ability to transform into almost any type of animal (I say ALMOST because she cannot turn into anything male. So she would not be able to turn into a Buck, only a Deer...make sense?). But her weakness could be that when she turns into an animal or tree, she has to behave like that thing (so she would not be able to communicate with those around her) and she never knows for sure how long her disguise will last (it is never over an hour though). And when she is transformed into a regular girl again, she has nearly all of her energy completely drained.





I hope that those sound like good ideas (I am also a writer and hope one day to direct films, so this was a whole lot of fun for me to think about)!! If you pick me as best answer, I will promise to go see your movie when it hits theaters. lol...just kidding...I will probably go see it even if you didn't. lol





Hope it goes well! Can't wait to see it!

P.S. you might like to consider turning this idea of yours into a book first...it would make a pretty cool one, I think. So take some times thinking about doing that. Consider it.
Reply:What ?
Reply:I actually read the entire idea. You have actually ripped off so many movies already made, I'm almost proud of you. True Hollywood writer/director ... Uwe Boll must be your hero.
Reply:I quit reading half-way through your post.





zzzzzzzzzzzzz...
Reply:project lava is pretty much hittin the nail on the head there. you've got xmen, aeon flux, league of extraordinary gentlemen, hellboy, mystery men, resident evil........
Reply:Sounds pretty interesting but mmm don´t like much the mixture of a woman and a shark, mmmmm. There are so many superheros movies that you should try to check if you aren´t using other director´s ideas...then I think that Milla Jovovich could be part of your movie as main actress and main character, she has been involved in unusual movies like Resident evil and a super heroine called Ultraviolet. She could be perfect for you movie, I would like to know more about your ideas for the villains, it needs improvement but i think your movie could work..and be enjoyed..good luck!!!.
Reply:As a writer, I suggest you ask questions, take a class and read some scripts, screenplays and treatments (all movie terms) and see how 'the other guys do it', and to get an idea of what to do and how its done. Write at least a chapter of your story idea first, as though this were a book, and see how that goes. Always write, then rewrite, then rewrite again. Don't be afraid to make mistakes. I do have to say (hopefully you are open to constructive criticism and take it as suggestion), your story sounds too much like a formula and a lot of stuff we've seen before. You need an interesting hook, something different and the characters need to be interesting --- think of your audience and what they'll be interested in, not just what you like --- make them multi-dimensional (in the life-like sense). But never let anyone tell you to stop. Walt Disney said, "If you can dream it, you can do it."
Reply:First off..ditch the shark women dna idea..it's sound like one of those bad crappy Scifi channel movies they make with a low budget that are totally crap !!!!!


Superpowered teams are nothing new...comics have done it for years. Maybe they get there powers from a higher supereme being. But they don't know how to use them and what they are for. I have cool name for the female character though.. how about Alexis Wellington. And her powers are could be breathing under water and stuff...


I mean I can't give you the whole thing on here limited space.. but If you want contact me we can IM or email back and forth and brainstorm.. I would like that.....


hope I could help...Hope too hear from ya soon.
