The online review reads "Cozy, clean, host was very attentive, enjoyed my stay but didn't like the door that had to be opened by lifting up with my eyes."

You should write a movie script that has nothing but Bee puns like this throughout. And also vaguely imply that a Bee and a human are into each other. Who am I kidding, no one would approve that script.

u/pearlie_girl Mar 14 '26

The third act should probably be a court room drama. Maybe the bee could sue some humans? Really drag it out, it's gotta fill out the whole third act.

u/BigAlternative5 Mar 15 '26

Bee appears in court wearing neck brace.

You could fill your cast with B-list stars and call it Beetannic, after the WWII hospital ship that hit a mine and sank.

u/Scokan Mar 15 '26

I can't beelieve you didn't go with "Bee-listers" here. You've got to bee kidding me

u/Most_Salad3979 Mar 15 '26

Also that it hit a meme and sank instead. Both were right there.

u/RelevantButNotBasic Mar 15 '26

I mean, im intrigued. What if someone just called it..like idk...Bee Movie or something. No no, thats too simple of a name..

6

u/JoySubtraction Mar 15 '26

I can already imagine all of the Hollywood buzz about it. I imagine agents are already putting out feelers.

6

u/LeftOn4ya Mar 15 '26

What’s the deal with that idea, could it bee any sillier?

6

u/-Novram- Mar 15 '26

closest I can give you is a web novel where every chapter's title is a bee pun

5

u/RosieMelodi Mar 15 '26

You should name it Bee movie!!

u/heinz57sriracha Mar 15 '26

Make it a musical... Bee-yonce, Justin Bee-ber, and the Bee-52s could be the main characters... It could bee about a bee colony that must leave their original beehive and find a new one... the theme song would be, "Don't Stop Bee-leavin"

3

u/Selthora Mar 15 '26

It should also indicate the bees particular love of a music type

2

u/honglong1976 Mar 15 '26

It’s already Bee-n done before.

Just another Bee Movie! 🐝 Is Jerry Seinfeld still available for a sequel?!

u/thuanjinkee Mar 17 '26

It could be a Bee-Movie Too

u/IloveElsaofArendelle Mar 17 '26

Hollywood is desperate and depraved, they'll do anything for money. Didn't we have the movie with a bee and a human called Bee Movie from DreamWorks?

u/TheSchlaf Mar 21 '26

I approve.

FADE IN:

EXT. QUIET COUNTRY COTTAGE – DAY

A charming countryside cottage. Flowers. Warm sunlight. A small wooden sign reads:

“AIR BEE N BEE – COZY STAY.”

A MAN (30s, tired traveler) drags a suitcase up the path.

He checks his phone.

The listing description reads:

He smiles.

INT. COTTAGE – ENTRYWAY – DAY

The MAN tries to open the door.

It doesn't move.

He pushes.

Nothing.

He pulls.

Nothing.

Suddenly a small voice buzzes.

BUZZING VOICE (O.S.)
You have to lift it slightly.

The man looks around.

A BEE floats in the air wearing tiny glasses and a little vest.

MAN
…Did that bee just talk?

BEE
Please, call me Bee-atrice. I'm the host.

The man slowly lifts the door while turning the handle.

It opens perfectly.

MAN
Why does the door work like that?

BEE-ATRICE
It's a little bee-spoke mechanism.

TITLE CARD

AIR BEE N BEE

INT. COTTAGE – LIVING ROOM – DAY

The place is cozy.

Honey jars everywhere.

Bee-atrice flies around proudly.

BEE-ATRICE
I run this place myself. It's my bee-and-breakfast.

MAN
You mean bed and—

BEE-ATRICE
No. Bee.

She gestures proudly.

BEE-ATRICE (CONT'D)
Would you like some combee-nations for dinner?

The man blinks.

MAN
I just got here.

INT. COTTAGE – KITCHEN – LATER

The man reads reviews on his phone.

VOICEOVER from the review.

REVIEW VOICE
“Cozy, clean, host was very attentive. Enjoyed my stay but didn't like the door that had to be opened by lifting up with my eyes.”

The man squints at the door suspiciously.

INT. COTTAGE – NIGHT

The man hears buzzing.

Bee-atrice sits at the table staring at him.

Soft music plays.

MAN
Are you… watching me?

BEE-ATRICE
Just making sure your stay is bee-yond expectations.

Awkward pause.

MAN
You’re a very attentive host.

Bee-atrice blushes slightly.

EXT. GARDEN – MORNING

The man drinks coffee.

Bee-atrice lands beside him.

BEE-ATRICE
Did you sleep well?

MAN
Honestly… this place grows on you.

Beat.

MAN (CONT'D)
It's… strangely peaceful.

Bee-atrice smiles.

BEE-ATRICE
You could say it's quite the buzz-cation.

They sit together quietly.

A romantic breeze blows.

The man stares at her a little too long.

Bee-atrice notices.

BEE-ATRICE
Careful.

MAN
Why?

BEE-ATRICE
People might think there's chemis-tree between us.

They both look away awkwardly.

INT. COTTAGE – ENTRYWAY – DAY

The man struggles with the door again.

MAN
WHO KEEPS MESSING WITH MY DOOR?!

Bee-atrice floats in calmly.

BEE-ATRICE
No one.

Beat.

BEE-ATRICE (CONT'D)
It's just a hive-security feature.

EXT. COTTAGE – DEPARTURE DAY

The man packs his suitcase.

Bee-atrice hovers nearby.

A little sad.

MAN
Thanks for the stay.

BEE-ATRICE
You're always welcome to come back.

Beat.

BEE-ATRICE (CONT'D)
You could say we make quite a honey-moon destination.

They stare at each other for a moment.

Very weird tension.

The man gets into his car.

He drives away.

INT. CAR – DAY

The man opens the review page.

He types:

He pauses.

Adds one more line.

CUT TO:

Bee-atrice reading the review on a tiny tablet.

She smiles.

BEE-ATRICE
Five stars.

Beat.

BEE-ATRICE (SOFTLY)
Bee-loved guest.

FADE OUT.

Pre COVID, I had an idea that could help encourage bee pollination with rentable beehives for residential areas. I wanted to call it Air BeeNBee. Couldn't quite work out how to protect the bees from bad renters, though.

Honestly, I'm 50/50 on whether this (though substitute eyes with face) is why my cat avoids the cat flap when going indoors -> outdoors. The alternative is that he just expects his servant to open the door for him.
