As Dreamers Do Part Deux

[OldNavy1988]

Scrapped by this point as negotiations fell through. I am working on my own Pop Culture Utopia timeline and I am planning on including it possibly in place of Star Trek Beyond.

I really wish he'd go through with it. Mainly to kinda shake up the franchise, especially after the mixed reaction to the Abrams-Trek.

I'd scrap JJ Trek altogether if it's to be a PC Utopia.
Beyond was the only really good one of the three, but it was too little too late.

I really wish he'd go through with it. Mainly to kinda shake up the franchise, especially after the mixed reaction to the Abrams-Trek.

Honestly, so would I; I'd love to see what he'd do with it.
He's got enough nerd cred that I'd trust him not to fuck it up like JJ did.

I don't know what actually happened with negotiations, as far as I knew it was just a question of whether he wanted use one of his limited slots for a Trek movie.
[For those who don't know, Tarantino has long been of the opinion that even great filmmakers only have so much creative energy, and can only make so many really good movies before that energy is tapped out. So he's gone on record as saying he's only going to direct a limited number of movies (I think 9 or 12, I forget exactly) and that if he did a Trek movie it would have to count, even though Trek is its own thing.]

I was still planning to have Quentin do the Kill Bill duology for Golden Harvest/New Line.

After that, there's Inglourious Basterds, Django Unchained, Hateful Eight and I think I'm missing one. The weakest of that OTL bunch will likely be butterflied or handed off to someone else to conserve Quentin's creative energy if necessary.

Yeah. I’m not sure how to fix them. My own plan is a tv series that fuses Star Trek:Enterprise, the Abrams films and Star Trek: Discovery. Most dream versions of Star Trek follow Brainbin’s that Wacky Redhead which is sets the original Star Trek from 2166-2172. Enterprise is set in the 2050’s and Discovery is set 10 years before the Original Series. So you could create a series combining them which is my plan. Another plan I have that would fix one glaring problem is make Benedict Cumberbatch not Khan but Phillip Green. Who in Star Trek lore started world war 3. Alternatively just cast an Indian or Spanish actor. Maybe Andy Garcia. He’s impersonated Ricardo Montalban in My Dinner with Herve.

Good riddance!

 

[OldNavy1988]

So, how many of the Beatles are still alive as of 2001?

All four are still alive.

John Lennon survives by virtue of Mark David Chapman having already been locked up before 1980.

So, have they ever seen what Japanese animation looks like? I'm just curious for the sake of surrealism of having the Beatles introduced to anime.

Hey @OldNavy1988 can we butterflies Ice Age sequel ITTL

 

[Goldwind2]

Here's an idea i have for ttl orginal movie. I call It Fortune Cookies. I. Two kids are sent to live with grandfather who runs a reasteruant in china town. .They soon learn that grandfather is a wizard who give magic good luck fortune cookie to good people who are suffering hard times. Grand pap trys teachign them how to make the magic forutuen cookies but the kids are only able to produce bad luck cookies . When the triad finds out about the cookies they kidnap grand and force him to write cookies that make them rich. The kids go to recuse grandpapa. They succesced by tricking the head of triad into reading one of thier misfortune cookies.. I told you this idea years ago back in verison 1.0 old and you gave me a like emoticon but you didn't use it. I hope use during 2.0. Here is another old idea .


The story begins with an archeologist bring home an arftifact. Unknonwt the archgolist the afrcat is magic. His two soon active the aftifact. IT brign to life their sprist animates. One sirt animal is a bave, wise noble tigeman the other cute lovable sweet squaral boy. A greedy company finds out about the arftfact. They steal it to make mascot for there themepark. The company board use theaftriacl them. The board meamber spritpt animals are evil beastmen who take over the company and plot to take over the world. IT is up to the archoglist sons and thier spirt animals to stop the evil beast menSince you are not using my totmes idea in 2.0. if you like and use this unamed named imovie then i would suggest calling it totems because work for this idea as well as the cartoon idea you decided to not re used
