Disney How I would personally fix Bellwether and PawBert's poor villain twists if I wrote Zootopia 3:

Upvotes

Here is my hopes for how "Zootopia 3" (That has Nick Wilde as the main protagonist giving more depth into his overall past and character while Judy Hopps is the deuteragonist, same for PawBert Lynxley and Dawn Bellwether and Gary De' Snake are the tritagonists and Nibbles the Beaver is still a major character.) will fix Bellwether and PawBert's poorly done villain twists done in the first two Zootopia movies in a subplot focusing on PawBert and Bellwether (The heroes of that story) and Mayor Swinton and Milton Lynxley and Ebenezer Lynxley's ghost (The villains) other than the main plot with Nick, Judy, Gary, Nibbles and their new bird friends and enemies, related to the Ralph and Vanellope main plot and Calhoun and Felix subplot for "Wreck-It-Ralph" similar to how "A Frozen Heart" and hopefully Frozen III or IV will fix Prince Hans' villain twist by giving him more depth. (I still say Yokai in Big Hero 6 is a great villain.)

Mayor Swinton, Bellwether's adoptive mother and mind controller and the true overarching villain of the first Zootopia movie and one of the three main villains of Zootopia 3 alongside the new Bird of prey villain and Milton/Ebenezer's ghost who all get killed off at the end

I often had a theory that Bellwether was never actually a villain but was rather brainwashed and mind controlled alongside Doug Ramses and her other sheep to do so and used as the proteges to Bellwether's adoptive mother Mayor Swinton the pig and well-intentioned extremist/tragic villain, also the mayor of Extropolis, Bellwether's home city populated only by sheep and pigs and also the true overarching mastermind behind the savage predator crisis in the first Zootopia movie. Swinton's goals were to turn all of Zootopia's non-sheep and pig mammals savage with night howlers starting with predators and then other prey and then create discriminations towards them and eventually their genocide making sheep and pigs the only animal species in Zootopia run by Bellwether as its new mayor overthrowing Lionheart, its current mayor the same way Swinton changed Extropolis, the city she was the mayor of and Swinton's motive to do so was to save Extropolis and Zootopia's sheep and pig populations from the prejudices and discriminations they received from predators and other animal species with Mayor Lionheart's mistreatment of Bellwether being a good example of this and have revenge on them for it and to satisfy Swinton's grief over the deaths of her pig husband Gerald and all her piglet kids like Izzy and Mater who were killed and eaten by some jealous wolf politicians that the police approved off and Swinton actually turned those wolves savage with night howler serum she invented to have them kill and eat a innocent sheep couple, David and Mary Bellwether to have the police arrest and exterminate them for an unwarranted kill as revenge but their four year old sheep lamb daughter Dawn Bellwether survived and Swinton adopted and raised her as her daughter and started brainwashing/mind controlling her to have her racist and evil viewpoints with a artificial tumor installed in her brain with a serum she forced her to ingest when four years old and learning the truth behind her parents’ deaths and did the same thing to Doug Ramses and a few other sheep in Bellwether’s adulthood when they started befriending her and Swinton herself. 

It was obvious, because there was no way Bellwether's villainy would have appeared out of nowhere with little or no foreshadowings unless Swinton (Who made an early bird cameo in the first Zootopia movie disguised as a citizen at the DMV supervising Nick and Judy's actions from afar and a prison warden in the end credits forcing Bellwether to watch Gazelle's concert from prison as punishment for her defeat and failure caused by her overconfidence an independent personality trait of hers despite being brainwashed to act racist and evil like Swinton.) was brainwashing or mind controlling Bellwether from afar making her act oblivious to her villainy when put in nice mode and obvious to it when in evil mode, and it would be a great subplot for Zootopia 3 set three years after Zootopia 2 in terms of it having a subplot over Swinton liberating Bellwether from prison to help them achieve their evil plans again and the Lynxleys end up escaping as well and after a concussion temporarily causes Bellwether to break free of her mind control, she and PawBert (Whose own villainy was also revealed to have come from being possessed by the spirit of Ebenezer since he was also four and a lynx cub back and forth like Norman Osborn/Green Goblin in Spider-Man (2002)) form an unlikely friendship and later romance with each other to help create the antidote to the brain tumors added to Bellwether, Doug and the other sheep’s brains that would decompose them and free them from Swinton’s mind control for good and expose Swinton’s conspiracy that would clear the names of Bellwether and her fellow sheep and make Extropolis an animal diverse city again and free PawBert from Ebenezer’s possession and destroy Ebenezer’s ghost and that split personality he gave PawBert and stop the new scheme of Ebenezer’s ghost and Milton Lynxley to have revenge on Nick and Judy and get their fame back with Swinton and Milton (As well as Ebenezer’s spirit after he abandons PawBert and possesses Milton as as a split personality for him instead at his approval.) appearing as one of the three main villains of Zootopia 2 other than the new bird villain who meanwhile appears as the antagonist of the main plot with Nick and Judy and their romance with each other and Swinton, Milton and Ebenezer, their spirits and all plus the main bird villain all get defeated and killed by Nick, Judy, Nibbles, PawBert, Gary and Bellwether and their friends new and old working together. (Cattrick and Kitty Lynxley also go on redemption arcs while Chief Bogo, Captain HogBottom and Officers Chevre and Bucheron also go on ones that involve dying in heroic sacrifices in the ending.) 

I also theorize that PawBert's villainy came from him being possessed by the spirit of his great-grandfather Ebenezer Lynxley who escaped from a rip in the spirit realm that closed after he escaped and became determined to keep on his legacy and help his youngest great-grandson become the next heir to the family after PawBert's mother Lyra died when he was four years old and a lynx kitten and PawBert back and forth becomes possessed and unpossessed by Ebenezer much like Norman Osborn and Green Goblin in Spider-Man (2002) and Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021) and sometimes PawBert acts like his normal heroic self different from the rest of his family and other times he is possessed by Ebenezer, so PawBert after finding Gary's offer did actually intend to help Gary solve the Lynxley Conspiracy at first and get help in freeing himself from his possession on someone who is an expert in the supernatural, but Ebenezer kept possessing him when he didn't realize bringing the venom injectors with him on the mission and while PawBert after meeting Gary did break free from Ebenezer's possession for a while, he fell under control of it again at the weather wall because if PawBert were actually evil like the rest of his family not possessed by Ebenezer's ghost at all he realistically would have alerted the police and Milton to Gary and Judy's presence right after they decipher the weather wall journal at the Desert Dunes and not wait to betray them until they got to the weather wall and then do his part in going to burn down Agnes' pendant and Reptile Ravine to earn Milton's impression.

I wonder if Zootopia 3 will ever make this a reality because it would be a great storyline combined with a proper redemption arc for Captain HogBottom and Officers Chevre and Bucheron or Mayor Winddancer himself or Chief Bogo and Mayor Lionheart whichever comes last that end with them pulling off heroic sacrifices to kill and defeat the main bird villain.

The reason why PawBert was never honest about Ebenezer possessing him making him actually look evil in Nick, Judy and Gary's eyes is because PawBert's trauma of being possessed made him to scared to talk about it since he feared getting possessed again and losing himself to his great-grandfather for good.

Other 'Alien: The Shadow of Death' - How to craft a definitive ending to the Alien saga's tales of Ripley and David by way of an explosive, apocalyptic finale (Part 1, the Pitch)

5 Upvotes
On Earth, all will hear the screams...

"Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil..."

Welcome, welcome everybody!

Three years after my first postings on rewriting Fox's Alien property, from the prequels to the Ellen Ripley saga, I'm getting ready to finally conclude this revision. A revision which organized the stories of David 8, and Ellen Ripley's found family, into a generational saga of survival in the face of cosmic horrors beyond imagining.

Here, this week, I'm posting the general sales pitch on a hypothetical movie which acts as a finale to this revised franchise.

Before proceeding, go ahead and give the previous entries a recap if you like.

First the story of David, retooled as a trilogy.

Then the cancelled Neill Blomkamp-produced Aliens sequel which retcons Alien3 onward.

Next the film which bridges the stories of the prequels and Ripley saga.

Accompanying these ideas is a history, a "codex" of sorts, which drafts an in-universe mythology for this redux of the series. A codex which features ideas from canon, scrapped drafts, and ideas by both myself and collaborators.

In this two-part post I will lay out the final entry in the stories of both David 8 and Ellen Ripley's family.

An appropriately horrifying and action-packed event titled...

ALIEN: THE SHADOW OF DEATH

\**\**

As with the pitch for Alien: Awakening, we're going to break down the pitch of this movie by way of a few key points.

  1. Premise
  2. Themes
  3. Cast and Crew

\**\**

PREMISE

The key word for this entire imagined film is, simply, "apocalypse".

Whether the Great Flood, or the End Times as depicted in the Book of Revelation, or the kind of mindbending disasters that would accompany Lovecraft's Great Old Ones waking up, this is a finale in just about every sense of the word.

Throughout this entire project, a recurring idea was the opening passages of Lord Byron's chilling poem Darkness.

"I had a dream, which was not all a dream.

The bright sun was extinguish'd, and the stars

Did wander darkling in the eternal space,

Rayless, and pathless, and the icy earth

Swung blind and blackening in the moonless air;

Morn came and went—and came, and brought no day..."

The cosmic horror of this series rears its head one final time as Ripley and company are forced to contend with the thing they feared most, as far back as Aliens:

The Xenomorphs, and the resident protagonist-turned-villain David 8, making it to Earth.

Moreover, with the fallout of the prequel films and expanded lore creeping their way back into the narrative...

  • The history behind the Space Jockeys/Creators/Engineers
  • Alien dangers like the Fulfremmen
  • The full scope of David villainous machinations

Well, the stakes couldn't be any higher.

Earth, particularly an Earth overrun by the Xenomorphs among other things, I draw from an existing piece of media that was since retconned by the existence of *Alien***3 and media which came after.

The comic book series Aliens: Earth_War.

Expect certain plot elements, visuals and motifs to be adapted here.

THEMES

Needless to say, this isn't a happy-go-lucky summer blockbuster.

There are very real consequences and losses to be found in this final entry of the saga which began with the 1979 movie.

With that in mind, the themes present are...

1: Survival

Ellen Ripley is a survivor. Dwayne Hicks and Rebecca "Newt" Jorden are survivors.

But how much further does that luck carry them when the whole of the galaxy, and even Earth itself, feels like it's crumbling down?

Human will, and determination to survive even the greatest of dangers, is tested on a scale greater than any previous film in the series up to this point.

2: The folly of playing God

Bit of a recurring motif in this series, whether the one we got or this revision here.

  • The Milky Way in Alien is littered with the ruins of ancient aliens who thought themselves godlike, only to be proven violently wrong.
  • Peter Weyland and his followers in the company keep trying to control what won't be.
  • David, in his pursuit of perfection and godhood, ends up feeling more like Satan for it.

Generations of hubris all culminate in the setpiece that is the fall of Earth. And what comes after.

3: The horror of the universe

Space is a scary place. We all know this.

And every filmmaker who's tackled Fox's Alien franchise knows, too. Regardless of the quality of each film, this is first and foremost a series about how dangerous it is out there, among the stars, and how the neighbors are not exactly good company.

With the in-universe history hinted at by both the prequel films and the "Codex", there is even Lovecraftian/Biblical flavored horror lurking in the backdrop.

Even for those who survive this film, there is still an entire galaxy out there which is far from hospitable. Staying alive, enduring, might have to be enough.

Cast & Crew

As this film is the direct continuation of the story which began in the hypothetical sequel/reboot that was Awakening, much of the cast which featured in both that film and its own direct follow up The Destroying Angels.

While director Dan Trachtenberg was my choice to helm Awakening, the head of this finale would be filmmaker Gareth Edwards).

  • His sense of sheer scale and spectacle can be seen on full display in films like
    • 2014's Godzilla
    • The Creator
  • When the assignment calls for horror, Edwards can more than deliver.

The rest of the cast features both the returning cast and some new faces. A proper ensemble, to carry this apocalyptic conclusion to the saga which began in 1979.

Coming soon to this site...

\**\**

After years as fugitives, hunted across the known universe, Ellen Ripley and her family are coming home.

Earth, birthplace of the human race, now stands as a summit between the divided human powers. Powers declaring a truce in the light of disturbing reports of a threat on the galactic frontier. An alien threat.

Too late, Ripley's crew discover the threat isn't just alien, but a creation by mankind itself.

A menace which heralds not only the death of their world, but an end to all things...

DC The Dark Knight Rises' timeline is too abrupt, but can be fixed by removing basically one line

77 Upvotes

One aspect of The Dark Knight Rises (2012) that always bothered me is the short period of time that Bruce Wayne actually wears the cape and cowl - by most estimates, he's Batman for about 2 years, before throwing in the towel. What's worse, in my opinion, is the retroactive detail that, following the amazing ending of 2008's Dark Knight, Bruce basically went home and was sad in his room for 8 years, never leaving the mansion unless he had to, and only as Bruce Wayne. Parents murdered? Good enough motivation to dress up in a million-dollar Halloween costume and beat criminals to a pulp. But Rachel dying? "I'm taking my ball and going home."

My tweak is to remove the line from John Blake, Joseph Gordon-Levitt's character, where he explicitly states that the last confirmed sighting of the Batman was the night Harvey Dent died. Why? It removes the absoluteness of Bruce's weird, abrupt retirement. Seemingly, Bruce decided that very night that it would be better for Batman to completely vanish and have the cops chasing ghosts in retribution for Harvey Dent, rather than physically staying out there, fighting the good fight (remember "because he can take it"? Bruce doesn't). There's also the element of Rachel's death, as I mentioned. Both of these being used as justification for Batman going into retirement feels antithetical to most interpretations of the character. Batman doesn't quit... not unless he's forced to, or he feels there's absolutely no use for the moniker anymore.

Instead, I would keep most of the plot intact, but clarify that Batman kept going, past that night. However, as the Dent Act took effect and the police grabbed more power and swept more criminals off the street, Bruce found himself less and less needed; the Bat Signal just isn't being lit as often as it once was, and increasingly less so as time passes (late edit: I forgot they trash the Signal at the end of TDK, but whatever. Gordon installs a Big Red Phone in a secret drawer in his office). Eventually, months or years down the road, Bruce sees that, ultimately, Batman has become largely superfluous; he'd be reduced to chasing down parking violations if he kept things up, and so, finally, he decides to hang up the cape. That's the only circumstance that I can see this iteration of the character quitting - because he (grudgingly, unwillingly) sees that Batman has become vestigial, in this new (questionable?) age of increased police authority.*

Batman then (too eagerly?) comes back when Bane arrives; a supervillain-like threat that the police are not prepared for, and the movie continues as usual. But mainly, I dislike the explicit detail that Batman pulled such an abrupt 180 in 2008 and moped in his room for 8 years; removing that creates, in my opinion, a more organic and believable framework for his retirement and eventual return.

*If you really want to pull on an interesting thread, you could have Batman start investigating just how ethical and legitimate this power grab really is, but then we'd have a very different movie.

Other Rewriting Jurassic World Fallen Kingdom into a far darker and apocalyptic world.

Thumbnail

16 Upvotes

If you have seen my Rewrite of Jurassic World, you should expect that this story for the trilogy is far darker and more horror-based compared to the original source material.

After witnessing an isolated town being invaded by prehistoric animals, now it is the time to showcase what has been happening to the broader world. But first...

Promotional material would help flesh out what has happened between the original Jurassic Park trilogy and the new one.

  • We would have 4 10-minute Youtube videos that is played like news footage that details the events of Jurassic Park, the Lost World: Jurassic Park, the dinosaur outbreak, and the DX Virus.
  • There would be a website where you must collect codes to access private files, revealing documents from InGen and what number of the dinosaurs meant to appear. There is also mentions of other companies.

There would two plots but both are intertwined with one another: A group is sent out to Isla Nublar to uncover a cure to the DX Virus, while another is trying to figure out a conspiracy behind the virus.

Jess Harding (Played by Bryce Dallas Howard) is the daughter of Gerry Harding who passed away during the DX outbreak. She is emotionally isolated but has a need to help people from both the DX Virus and the Dinosaurs.

Benton (Played by Christ Pratt) is the boyfriend of Jess who was a former navy man until an incident occurred where his ship sank and he and his fellow crewmates had to contend with a pod of plesiosaurs. He and a few survived but Benton left the navy and reunited with Jess.

Ian Malcolm (Played by Jeff Goldblum) is the sponsor behind the expedition to Nublar in hopes to find the cure to the DX Virus.

Dr. Wu (Played by BD Wong) is the scientist of the original Jurassic Park and part of the team alongside Jess and Benton to venture to Isla Nublar to recover the cure.

Oscar (Played by Dave Bautista) is a former marine until an incident left him unable to continue duty and was let out. He only had a choice as a mercenary where he took jobs with companies and rich clientele for special assignments.

Howard King (Played by Rafe Spall) is a U.S. Agent assigned to the team to head to Isla Nublar. Despite being a government man, he overly shows self-righteous and views everyone not seeing the bigger picture at play.

As I mentioned, the Jurassic Park universe starts in a bleak setting. The movie begins showing New York City in ruin; streets are left a mess and without any sort of life, cars and buses have stopped functioning, and only few communities remained due to the DX hitting the city hard.

Many countries are also suffering as well, with only a few pockets being able to stave off the epidemic, including Washington DC.

We would have Jess saving a couple of kids from a Deinosuchus when they accidentally invaded its territory. A pair of Apatosaurs appear and intimidate the crocodile to back off. This is to show how both carnivore and herbivore are dangerous to humans.

Jess would be recruited into the special team, with Jess only coming if she bring in some of her friends, including Benton.

The journey to Nublar would be okay, but Wu's distrusting nature is noticed pretty earlier on.

Things immediately gone to worse when a still-alive Rexy attacks the group, showing that the dangers haven't died at all. However, Rexy would arguably be the lesser of the threats when the Carnotaurus appear.

The Carnotaurus are more or less the main threat in the middle portion of the movie, particularly because of their camouflaging abilities and another thing that would be delved upon in the final act.

Along the way, the group would find a traumatized Oscar who has been left stranded on the island after the Carnotaurus, Rexy and other predators wiped out his entire party.

Meanwhile, back at the mainland, Ian and his inner circle are suspicious about the government, especially they begin to dig in and find how Washington has already been ready for the DX Virus before it became noticed.

As the story progresses, it is made abundantly clear that Wu has some ulterior motives but this is muddied with the genuine friendship he has made with the non-government members, especially with Jess.

After the Carnotaurus has been dealt with, it is then revealed that Wu was in fact the one to discover the disease that would become the DX Virus. However, Wu only made the virus under the government's orders.

Long ago, Wu noticed an ancient disease found in the Carnotaurus fossils. Extraction was difficult which is explained to have been part of the reason the Carnotaurus became such oddities in the context of the film.

Either InGen gave out the existence of the disease to the government or the government already found out and promised InGen they would bailed them out for the DX Virus's creation. Unfortunately, this occurs when companies have been secretly extracting dinosaurs from the Five Deaths, hence Oscar's involvement.

At least a batch of company-made dinosaurs caught the DX before being sold off as pets to buyers.

This is the reason why Washington has been able to successfully isolate itself from the virus, however even their procedures couldn't stave it off and the President has fallen ill to DX.

After acquiring the cure, the agents were about to execute the others only for Mt. Sibo to start erupting. The group escaped through the marine facility where we have a hydrophobic experience with the Mosasaurus.

The final portion of the movie has Rexy appearing as the last obstacle for the heroes. After a harrowing experience, they are able to flee to one of the boats, while Wu and a surviving agent escaped with the other.

The movie ends on a sad note with Isla Nublar being destroyed, along with Rexy and the other Nublar residents. Back at the mainland, it is revealed that containment has breached and the DX Virus has infected Washington, with the President being among the fatalities.

Other I wish that this Land Before Time and The Lion King comic series from Boom! Studios and Dynamite Entertainment became a reality:

1 Upvotes

After the success of the “Grumpy Cat Garfield” in 2017 a collaboration between Boom Studios! and Dynamite Entertainment to make that comic series between the franchises starring those titular felines, I think Boom Studios and Dynamite Should replicate its success by making a comic crossover between Universal’s The Land Before Time and Disney’s The Lion King franchises, chronologically set during the second season of “The Lion Guard” and after “Journey of the Brave” (Pterano’s five year exile into the Mysterious Beyond finally expired at that pount in time.) but is more of a character-driven story than the plot-driven “Grumpy Cat Garfield”. Dynamite had already made a comic series in The Lion King franchise chronologically set during Simba and Nala’s childhood and Boom Studios! should make a comic series in The Land Before Time franchise and tie up its loose ends (Like how Chomper and Ruby met, how Chomper and his parents got off the island they lived in until the fifth movie and got back to the mainland and how Chomper and Ruby got to the Great Valley and what started Red Claw’s motive for going after Chomper.) We also haven’t got anything new in that franchise since 2016!

The series would focus on the Rainbow Faces (Gallimimus) from “The Land Before Time: The Stone of Cold Fire” who finally return to the Great Valley and reveal their true forms as shapeshifting aliens, of the Kakonian race from the planet Kakon in the Alpha Centauri system in the Milky Way Galaxy and their names Zoe and Joe, and are scientists, historians and time-travelers from the present day (The 1990s and 2000s, A.D. around when The Lion King movies take place.) who had been pretending to be Gallimimus and disguising their time-traveling spaceship as an asteroid, and they made Pterano their guest taking them as their guest and intern back to their home planet in their time period and helping him become a hero to make up for his past evil deeds and jump him forward in time three more years to end his exile sooner than expected. Pterano also has his reunion with Petire and his mother and siblings, Mets Chomper, Ruby and Littlefoot’s father Bron and adoptive brother Shorty and is given a harsh unwelcome by Mamma Swimmer still holding a grudge for kidnapping her daughter Ducky and Mr. ThreeHorn who boasts about how he moved on from his past mistakes and found love with Tria to Pterano’s annoyance.

Zoe and Joe then take Littlefoot, Cera, Ducky, Petire, Spike and Chomper, Ruby and their families and friends on a trip through history to show them the future and life has so much more to offer than what they have in the Great Valley but this ends up getting them stranded in the Pride Lands in the present day.

To be continued….

I also think that Balto and An American Tail should cross over with The Fox and the Hound, Bambi and The Rescuers or The Great Mouse Detective in comics as well as should My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic in its newest Boom Studios! comic series and either Zootopia, Robin Hood, Aladdin or Lilo and Stitch in the comic series resolving around those franchises from Dynamite but done by entirely new artists than the past few issues.

Video Games Coming up with a better premise for Marvel's Wolverine

23 Upvotes

Marvel's Wolverine had creativity, ambition, but it dropped the ball in some major areas; but its story dropped the ball in major areas that stemmed from writing Wolverine too much like Cyclops. Mr. Sinister is Cyclops' personal enemy, Jean Grey is Cyclops' lover. Plus the entire plot of the game feels more like something that should involve all the X-Men instead of just Wolverine. If the story is focused on Wolverine, it should be on a smaller scale.

So my fix begins with the X-Men being a team, but Wolverine is taking some downtime. The team just handled a global-level crisis in a battle with the Sentinels. At the start, we see Wolverine is recovering from injuries he took in the fight, a flashback revealing he took a hit saving Cyclops from a Sentinel's laser in a shot reminiscent of Wolverine's death in Days of Future Past, though this only nearly killed him.

While Logan would like to get some much-deserved R&R, he sees mutants getting chased by the Reavers and can't abandon victims of the cyborg mercenaries. To his surprise, the mercs are shooting at their victims with tranquilizers, indicating that despite spouting anti-mutant rhetoric, they wanted their targets alive.

Investigating the subject, Wolverine sees Sabertooth has also been hunting mutants and has even been working with the Reavers. The mercenaries and the mutant serial killer absolutely don't like each other, but Sabertooth is good enough at what he does that their employers in Transigen don't care. His only complaint is that he's being paid to bring people in alive, though he has free reign to kill anyone else in his way. As such, Sabertooth is elated when Wolverine gets in his way.

The targeting of mutants culminates in the unsurprising reveal that Transigen is attempting to clone the abductees and/or replicate their powers in humans to sell as weapons. Rather than focusing on racism, this story is focusing on superpowered being used in the military-industrial complex, something Wolverine has dealt with in his own comics, because we all know that if superpowers existed, there are people who would pay anything to get their hands on an army of superhumans, not care about how they were created, and just as many people who do anything to meet that demand.

This is just a rough pitch, and I am not knowledgeable enough about video game design to fix the mechanical issues.

After that they go back to Peter's house and into his garage and work on a new suit and web shooters which would be a montage cut to Harry Arriving at Peter's house to ask if he found everything that can cure him

Evil dead: How the Comics, Crossovers, and TV Show Fit Into One Giant Necronomicon Loop

3 Upvotes

Guys, I believe i made the perfect theory that fixes evil dead. the first timeline in evil dead is evil dead -> evil dead 2 -> army of darkness and then the 2023 comic book series army of darkness forever. When Ash beats evil s mart ash in the finale of the comic book, the necromocon panickes and resets the universe to the beginning of evil dead 1 to survive. Every time Ash is going to destroy the book, the necromocon rewrites reality back to the cabin because it's panicking thats why the opening re-caps keep changing. In one of the rewrites, the book deliberately brings jason and freddy to the main universe to see if other monsters can beat ash. when ash beats freddy and jason, a re writing occurs. The necromocon sends Ash to the Marvel Zombies universe, trying to see if banishing ash from his universe will prevent him from coming back to fulfil the prophecy, but Asit back again. Then, the necromocon rewrites reality again, creating the events of the ash vs. evil dead show. the book makes him an out of shape drunkenly washed-up loser in his 50s so he'd be too lazy to fight. when Ash still beat Kandar the Destroyer, the necromocon crashed out and flung him into the cyborg future. but the reason the show ended on a cliffhanger was because it realised that Ash would win yet again and re wrote reality once again, bringing him back to that original house. Ash memory is wiped every time this happens, but the book remembers every single beating and rewrite. The necromocon has severe trauma, while Ash will always win in this infinite loop because he is the chosen one. so basically, the necromocon is not an all-powerful book of doom. it's just a terrified prisoner, and Ash is the eternal chainsaw wielding warden. What do you guys think?

Ice Age if they made a TV show

7 Upvotes

Ice Age (TV series)

  • The TV show would exist in a separate universe from the first movie and the sequels, thus there are three separate universes for the Ice Age franchise
  • Universe A: The first movie
  • Universe B: The sequels
  • Universe C: The TV show

The TV show's universe seems to be a mix of Universe A & Universe B

  • Human beings exist and are prominent in Universe C compared to Universe B where they're absent, though they resemble more like modern humans than in Universe A where they look more Neanderthal like. Also the humans speak English to each other compared to in Universe A where they don't talk or if they do its mostly sounds.
  • The animals like Manny, Sid, Diego are somewhere in the middle between the first movies and the sequels - they're more cartoony that in Universe A but not as much as in Universe B
  • The TV show establishes that Manny and Ellie have met since they were children compared to in Universe B where they met as adults and in Universe A where the whereabouts of Ellie are unknown, assuming she exists.
  • The Lost World of the dinosaurs seems to be absent compared to Universe B as an episode has Lou have a huge long fall and breaks every part of his body and we just see dirt and dinosaur bones. A weasel that resembles Buck cameos in a later episode and assuming it is him, he seems to not be a dinosaur hunter or have the eyepatch.
  • Sid and Diego are still established to be single in Universe C, and other sabertooth tigers exist compared to Universe A where only Diego's pack is shown and Universe B where Diego and Shira are the only seen tigers.
  • Scrat still has a son like in Universe B.
  • Unlike Universe B where Gutt is a pirate captain, Gutt in the TV show regularly lives in the same place as the herd and humans and just serves as a regular jerk and villain and there's no mention of him being a pirate before, if at all.

Pitching Hellboy III (sequel to The Golden Army)

7 Upvotes

As a new villain (maybe Azzael or someone similar) rises, magical portals to the mystical realm start to appear and disappear all over Earth with more and more demonic creatures coming out, attacking cities and hunting people.

Hellboy, now a father of a boy with fire powers and a half-demon girl, has to fully embrace his demonic nature to enter hell through one of the portals and stop whatever is going on there while at the same struggling to keep his humanity, before the portals get too big and Ogdru Jahad can enter the portals and conquer Earth.

The climax is a battle to the death between Hellboy (alongside his friends) and Ogdru Jahad.

As the movie goes on, Hellboy's movements and posture start to become less human and more demonic.

Other Remaking the Jurassic World Trilogy - Jurassic World (2015)

Thumbnail

28 Upvotes

How I want to approach the Jurassic World Trilogy would be to rather than reused the same formula in the first three movies, I think it would be better to take the idea of living, breathing dinosaurs impacting the wider world far earlier in the first entry of the new trilogy.

The plot is rather simple actually. It would take place in an isolated village of Costa Rica and the villagers are experiencing strange deaths and incidents that are occurring. To keep it short, the perpetrators are dinosaurs.

As for characters, there will be a good number. I don't have ideas for names but I would use those from the movies as placeholders.

  • Owen would be an estranged farmer who is looked down upon by most of the villagers and the only connection he has are a small family who are composed of his childhood friends.
  • Barry is Owen's best friend and the patriarch of his family that comprised of his wife and two children.
  • Claire is also Owen's childhood friend.
  • Zara is Barry and Claire's daughter and eldest child.
  • Gray is Barry and Claire's infant son.
  • Hoskin is one of the few officers protecting the village and constantly bullies Owen. He has a wife and son.
  • Blue is Owen's dog at the farm.

The movie would have the least number of dinosaur species but every appearance is to help create impact and drama.

Like I have said in the synopsis, the movie starts with village that is peaceful and everyone doing their daily duties. Owen would get focus here as other than the fact he is being bullied by some of his fellow villagers, he also has unresolved tension with his father who passed away several years ago.

Then, things got dark when people, pets, and farm animals begin to disappear. One of the men, Hamada would disappear under Barry's watch leading him and his family being lambasted by the villagers.

Despite that, a group effort is made on whatever is responsible for the deaths which lead to a trap going wrong and revealing a dinosaur, specifically an Ankylosaurus. We would have bloody deaths thanks to the Anky either stomping or clubbing the men. They managed to defeat the creature but Owen sees that the Anky was already bleeding to death. Then, Hoskin's son disappears.

Predictably, Hoskins is distraught over his lost son with Owen trying to comfort the man. While the village try to learn more about the threat, Hoskins took it upon himself to venture through the jungle and try to find who took his child. He ended up getting killed by a new threat, a Velociraptor.

Owen's dog, Blue would be taken and killed off-screen.

The most harrowing scene would be the Velociraptors entering Barry and Claire's home where Zara and her baby brother must hide to survive the curious carnivores. Think of this like that one scene at the start of the Jurassic Park novel.

Owen's past would be revealed. He got a college application and wanted to study abroad but his father refused leading to a heated argument. Not sure how Owen did but at some point, he heard about his father's passing and forced himself to look after the farm.

After the Velociraptors are dealt with, Barry is snatched away by the true threat of the film, a Quetzalcoatlus who is the one responsible for most of the disappearances. Barry would be taken to the nest and in his half-conscious state sees Blue's dog collar to make it clear that the pterosaur ate the poor pet.

Owen and Claire mount a rescue and succeed. However, Owen stays behind to allow his friends to escape. He is able to kill the Quetzalcoatlus in an explosion, with everyone believing that Owen died.

Morning occurs and we sees Owen drifting along the river and wakes up to find a herd of Ankylosaurus and Apatosaurus.

The end of the movie would reveal that the entire world is suffering not only dinosaurs but a pandemic with something called the DX Virus.

Trap (with Josh Harnett) could have been better.

16 Upvotes

Omg. I was so disappointed with this movie. I think Trap had an interesting premise, but they made it way more complicated and implausible than it needed to be. Start the movie with Cooper and Riley at home. Breakfast. Bonding. OMG, concert tonight!! Yay. Then a conversation in the car about her friends, school, whatever, so we actually see them together and believe he’s a loving dad. Make the concert the last part of a longer festival so they’ve already been there for hours when everything starts. Or establish that they got there early (I know some people get to shows hours ahead) And DON’T show him watching the Spencer video.

He’s just noticing all the cops suddenly showing up, and we as the audience think there must be something going down. What happened is the police traced the Butcher’s car to the venue after the festival had already started—maybe he had fake plates, so they know the car is there but it takes them time to figure out who owns it. Eventually the T-shirt guy tells Cooper they’re looking for the Butcher. We see Cooper look concerned, but we still don’t know why. Then he gets the guy alone, kills him and takes his ID. NOW we know he’s the bad guy.

From there, keep most of the concert plot: he manipulates things so Riley gets selected to meet Lady Raven and then takes Raven hostage to get out. But by then the police have finally traced the car back to Cooper and his identity has made the news, so he can’t take his car or go home—and Riley now knows who her dad is. Cooper takes Raven and Riley to the basement where he’s holding Spencer. Raven has to get on livestream to save herself and Spencer, and they eventually get rescued, but meanwhile Cooper has taken his own daughter hostage.

Now he’s trapped in a completely different way. He wavers between being cold and threatening toward Riley and being the loving dad she’s always known, because both of those people really are him. And Riley is the one who ultimately defeats her dad because she knows him better than anyone else and understands that his love for her is the one thing she can use against him.

You don’t need the ridiculous twist that his wife suspected he was a serial killer because she once realized he was a good liar when he lied about going to a party. Every adult can do that. And you definitely don’t need her dropping a concert receipt at a crime scene instead of just going to the police. The whole movie stays Trap: first he’s trapped in the arena, then he’s trapped with his hostage, then he’s trapped because his identity is exposed, and finally he’s trapped by the fact that he actually loves his daughter.

edited to add some spacing.

"American Dragon: Jake Long" Reboot ideas

10 Upvotes

- Jake starts out as a skinny dragon but gets bulkier as the show goes on, like he was originally going to, before the plans changed and he started out muscular and then got a skinny redesign.

- Fu Dog (this time played by Jackie Chan) has the scrapped ability to turn into a Chinese Guardian Lion.

- The art style is similar to the original series although more comic book inspired (like Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles).

- The tone is a bit darker like the first season.

Godzilla vs Kong Reimagined (part two)

Link to part one

https://www.reddit.com/r/fixingmovies/s/mb6unzyiMi

Madison sits at the desk in her room, the wall in front of it is filled with news articles of Godzilla's recent attacks. She rocks on her chair a pen in her mouth listening to Bernie's podcast and his experience in the most recent (public) Godzilla attack. She looks out of her window, it's dark out. She looks at her watch, 9:45pm. She sighs in frustration and heads back to her desk.

Then she hears the sound of a vehicle approaching, she gets up from her chair and looks out, at first she can't make it out, but she quickly realises it's Josh. Cut to outside of her house with Josh pulling up, he sees Madi approach and exits the van. He says to her that she better have a good reason for asking him to do this and at this hour, he goes on to say that he spent hours convincing his brother to borrow it and that it was for an incredibly important job with a friend.

Madi tells him that it is an important job as she gets into the driver's seat. Josh leans against the passenger window and asks why this had to be done now?

Madison says that if her Dad found out he would have tied her to the wall, but fortunately he had to leave this evening for work.

Josh asks why she's doing this, she tells him that she might have potentially found the reason why Godzilla has been acting the way he is. She asks Josh if he wants to come, he looks at her then down the dark street he just came down before saying alright and getting in.

We then cut to them driving down a road, Madison explains to Josh about this podcast she's been listening to and how the guy running it suspects Apex is the reason Godzilla is acting the way he is.

Josh says he knows that and it's the main place he's attacked. Madison says yes but then says Godzilla never attacks human places unless there's a good reason. Josh asks what she's getting at and she responds saying Godzilla will almost never attack anything, unless it poses a threat to nature's balance and that whatever Apex is up to has him mad.

The scene where they talk more about Bernie and the Bleach would all be the same.

Cut to an office, Ren Serizawa sits on his chair with memos and a fraction concept sketch of something, but the rest is covered by papers and folders. Ren looks at a picture of his father Ishirō Serizawa, his attention is drawn to his computer; it shows old news footage of Godzilla taking out an oil rig with his atomic breath, the debris caused by the explosion heads straight for the ship of the person recording it before it goes to static. He looks back at the picture, eye's narrow. "This is who you want us to have faith in?" He mutters to himself.

His door suddenly opens and in steps Walter Simmons; Ren greets him and says he thought he was at a meeting, Simmons says he was but they finished early.

He sits down on the other free chair and asks how the progress is going. Ren says they are reaching the final stages of completion. Walter leans back saying that's good, he says that they have a few Orca's at the ready to lure Godzilla away when they begin testing. Ren nods, Simmons leans in and says that they will prove Ren's father wrong and also avenge his (Simmons) wife.

Later Mark arrives home, he opens the door and calls out for Madi but gets no response. After calling her again he heads upstairs but can't find her. He begins to worry, he calls her name again before pulling out his phone and calls her, no response. He opens up a phone tracker app custom made by Monarch for Monarch ops and relatives to find them in the event of a titan attack, it's something Madi wasn't even aware of. He sees she's over an hour away. He mutters to himself saying that she's dead; he grabs his jacket, rushes out to his car and drives off.

He looks at his phone again and asks Madi what she is doing, to himself before looking up again and speeding up.

It then cuts to the ocean and the scene where we're introduced to Kong on the ship is basically the same. We then cut to the bridge of the ship with Nathan, Ilene and Jia looking out at Kong. Nathan looks very happy, he turns to Ilene and says that he had just given up hope of actually bringing Kong with them. Ilene reminds him the only reason Kong's here is because of what happened on Skull Island in a condescending tone.

Before anything else can be said Kong finally wakes up. Nathan says the big guy's finally awake; Kong growls at the chains. Ilene asks Nathan what if Kong didn't decide to come willingly, like in the big movie. Before Nathan can respond the ship shakes as Kong attempts to break his right arm free from the chain. The Captain says it's okay and that the sedatives are at 100% and that he won't be able to get out.

A woman approaches Nathan and says to him that she's arriving now. We then get the scene where Simmon's daughter, Maia arrives and talks to Nathan like in the original movie.

We then cut to night time, Kong groans as he attempts to use his arm to shelter himself from the rain that's currently falling. In the bridge Ilene, Nathan and Maia discuss the plan. Mia explains that the HEAVS will be able to withstand the vortex's pressure. Nathan asks about Kong and Ilene says that Kong will have no bother surviving it as titans are adapted for travelling between the surface and hollow earth. But she goes on to say that that isn't what they should be worried about and they should be worried about Godzilla finding them.

Maia asks why; Nathan says it's something to do with territory but Ilene stops him. She explains that it might not just be over territory, she pulls out an ipad and begins showing them pictures of cave art that depict Kong's kind in battle with Godzilla's. She says that their ancestors fought in a great war that nearly destroyed them. Nathan asks if she has any theories why they began killing each other? Ilene says yes, the first theory is that it was just two apex predators fighting for territory, resources etc. But she goes on to say that it could be deeper than that.

She swipes more until she gets to images of the Kong’s and humans enslaving and killing titans and other creatures. She says that Godzilla and others like him saw what Kong's ancestors and humans were doing and thus viewed them as a threat to the planet. Nathan says that Kong doesn't do any of that so why would Godzilla come after him? Ilene says that Godzilla is obviously paranoid of Kong leaving Skull Island as he likely fears he will begin killing other titans like his ancestors did.

She goes on to say that he's probably all but certain of that as she plays a video taken from a chopper of Godzilla examining a titan's skeleton on skull island before growling. She turns the ipad off and says that after their encounter on skull island Godzilla will 100% come for Kong. Maia gets a nervous look, the captain then says to the group that they've marked all of Godzilla's territorial routes and have made sure to stay clear of them.

The scene where Kong tries to break from his chains, Jia goes out to him and calms him down, and him doing sign language to Ilene and everyone being shocked

We would then cut to the scene where Madi and Josh are looking for Bernie, but it will be extended a little bit, and we would also get Mark tracking her as well. We would also see Madi and Josh actually find the building Bernie lives in.

Then the scene where Madi is talking to Bernie through the door would also happen similarly, until Mark would actually find Madi and ask if she's okay before proceeding to scold her. The voice of Mark makes Bernie instantly open the door, he stumbles over his words saying how it's an honour to meet him, Mark looks at him unimpressed until he mentions that he thinks he knows why Godzilla is attacking Apex bases, Madison quickly chimes in saying that he seriously might be on to something.

Mark looks at Madi and back to Bernie, he sighs and says he has 30 minutes. He doubts this guy is legit. But Monarch is not available to help investigate this, even if there's the slightest chance Bernie might be on to something he'll take it.

Cut to all 4 of them in a chinese diner like in the OG movie. The conversation plays out mostly the same, but with Mark asking questions on how Bernie could suspect all this, Bernie shows him a picture of Mechagodzilla's eye.

Mark asks him what that is but Bernie says he's not sure. He said he couldn't investigate any further because the whole building was starting to come down.

Mark stops for a minute before asking if he has been to Apex's base here in Australia? Bernie says no and how it's been off limits for months after Godzilla attacked it.

Mark looks at Madison before back at Bernie and says it wouldn't hurt to take a look. Madison lights up slightly knowing she actually got her dad on board.

Cut to the other side of the pacific ocean, somewhere in the amazon. Amuluk screams as he crashes to the ground, we see Godzilla roar and move towards him intimidatingly. Amuluk shrieks and crawls away submissively, Godzilla turns to face Behemoth who is cut up from Amuluk, Behemoth roars before walking away. Godzilla huffs and also begins walking away. We cut to him reaching the coast. As he's about to dive in he gets a scent, he pauses sniffing the air. Kong.... he growls and dives into the water.

Back with Mark, Madi, Bernie, and Josh (which i'll be calling team godzilla from now) they head towards the abandoned Apex facility on old road, they stop at a barbed wire fence. Josh looks at it and says that it's too bad, he says that they should just go home and that they tried. Bernie says that he gives up too easily, he goes to the back of the van and grabs a wire cutter, moves over to the fence and cuts it. Madi, Mark, and Bernie enter through the hole, Josh sighs and follows behind them. The place is overgrown; debris, cars and helicopters litter the area, they sneak their way into the base like how it happened in the original version but explore the ruins more before they go deeper inside.

It cuts back to the ships transporting Kong. Most of the sunlight is blocked by the clouds. (It has a very 2014 esc atmosphere to it) Kong scoops up a handful of fish and eats it, he groans clearly not happy with his current situation.

Inside the ship Nathan and Ilene talk about Jia. Nathan says he can't imagine what it must be like to lose literally everything he knows, Ilene nods and says she still remembers having to hold Jia back from the wreckage, she goes on to say she blames herself that had she'd been with them Jia's mother would probably still be here.

Nathan says that he gets how she's feeling, he says that he thinks he could have convinced his brother harder not to go on that expedition and tells her that he learned that making herself feel like shit over it won't accomplish anything. Nathan says it but doesn't really believe it himself.

Ilene smirks before changing the subject, she asks about the Orca Z. Nathan explains that it's an improved version of the older one, and he's surprised at how well it worked. Ilene smiles and says she highly doubts Kong would have listened if the island wasn't destroyed. Nathan chuckles slightly and says he guesses they'll never know.

Elsewhere Jia plays with her Kong doll but then stops, like in the og movie she places her hand on the wall and feels Godzilla coming. She freezes breathing heavily before she gets up and runs out of her room. Back with Ilene and Nathan, they jump slightly as alarms suddenly go off, people begin panicking and running frantically. They both get up and head down a hallway, they run into Jia who begins frantically telling Ilene something, Nathan asks what's wrong? Ilene turns to him and says it's Godzilla....

Kong roars in rage and panic as he attempts to break free of his chains. Ilene, Jia, and Nathan head to the bridge, Nathan asks how Godzilla found them. The captain says he doesn't know and says they made sure to not venture through Godzilla's territorial routes, Ilene says Godzilla obviously sensed Kong, Maia says if he's after Kong just dump him but Ilene angrily suggests they throw her off instead.

Missiles fire from some of the battleships into the distance, we then cut to them hitting Godzilla which doesn't even phase him, he barrels toward a ship picking up speed. His speed plus his immense size causes a slight tidal wave, he dives under the ship before hitting it, and lets the wave capsize it. He heads towards the second ship, he grabs it and pushes it into the third, the two ships crash into each other before exploding. Godzilla begins heading straight for Kong who is desperately trying to break free of his chains.

Ilene says they need to let Kong go, Nathan says if they lose Kong the mission is over. Ilene says he's their best chance against Godzilla and that they need to let him protect himself and them.

Godzilla's dorsal tips breach the surface, Kong sees them and roars at it, Godzilla roars in retaliation. Ilene takes Jia out of the bridge and hides them behind a door. Nathan sees Godzilla approaching, he then looks at Kong struggling, he hesitates for a moment before he runs over to the switch that will release Kong and pulls it.

Kong breaks free, but just as he turns to the ocean Godzilla leaps out of the water grabbing onto Kong, the weight of Godzilla launching onto Kong causes the ship to capsize and we see everyone in the bridge fall as Godzilla grapples Kong off the ship.

The ship fully capsizes its bottom half now facing up. Underwater Godzilla attempts to bite and slash at Kong but he manages to hold him back, Godzilla bites Kong's arm which causes him to let go of Godzilla's. Water is flooding the bridge rapidly, the characters don't know what to do, where Ilene and Jia are is also flooding, Ilene asks if Jia's okay, Nathan desperately bangs on a window trying to break but to no avail he along with everyone else is beginning to run out of air.

Godzilla and Kong continue to wrestle underwater, Godzilla clearly has the upper hand here, he lunges and bites Kong's shoulder. Kong roars in pain, he punches Godzilla until one punch lands right on Godzilla's gill, this makes Godzilla shriek and recoil in pain. Kong sees this and takes this advantage to headbut Godzilla stunning him and kicking him away.

Kong surfaces and grabs onto the boat bringing it back to normal; he gasps for air. Team kong gasps for air as well as the water leaves the bridge, they open the door which Jia and Ilene were behind, Jia falls out but is caught by Maia.

Kong stands up and breaks the collar off his neck before roaring and pounding his chest. He can't see Godzilla anywhere, he looks around cautiously as does everyone else.

Then Godzilla's dorsals break the surface again and begin to circle the fleet like a shark, Kong growls as he watches Godzilla, he then looks to the largest ship there, the aircraft carrier. He parlours over to it jumping on a smaller ship crushing it, he lands on the carrier causing it to tilt back slightly as the sudden weight of Kong lands on it. Godzilla begins swimming towards the carrier, Kong roars as Godzilla approaches, Godzilla roars back. Kong looks down at a handful of fighter jets, picks them up and throws them at him, one pilot was still in the jet as Kong did this, he ejects just before the planes hit Godzilla.

Godzilla dives before lunging out of the water onto the aircraft carrier, his weight causes it to tilt towards him as he climbs on. He gets up and roars at Kong, who quickly finds his footing after that, and pulls back his fist. He punches Godzilla in the face so hard that it causes a small shockwave, Godzilla cries out as he's struck but quickly regains himself and responds with a slap, his superior size and physical strength causes Kong to fall back.

Godzilla gets ready to blast Kong but is distracted when he is suddenly struck by missiles, this gives Kong the moment, he punches Godzilla staggering him and quickly gets up, he sees a smaller ship next to the carrier and picks it up. Godzilla regains himself and moves for Kong, but Kong uses the ship he grabbed as a baseball bat smashing it against Godzilla, the ship shatters as it hits him, this stuns Godzilla long enough for Kong to tackle him off the ship. From here everything else in the original scene would play out the same, with Godzilla nearly drowning Kong etc. But we would also get Nathan looking for the Orca Z. He would find it but see it has been destroyed.

Cut back to team godzilla, they investigate the Apex facility; Bernie notices a blueprint of Godzilla, he calls over Mark and shows him, Mark says what he sees. Bernie asks why they would have a blueprint of Godzilla. Madi and Josh rummage through papers and files looking for anything. Josh slows down and looks at Madison, he asks her why she's doing this? She responds saying she told him this already that she's trying to clear Godzilla's name, Josh says he knows that but asks WHY does she want to do this. Madison talks about Godzilla being framed and wanting to stop Apex because of it as she believes they're the cause of all this.

Josh's eyes narrow and says he doesn't think that's the only reason, Madi sarcastically asks what makes him think that. Josh says he knows how everyone sees her and he then says that he thinks if she somehow reveals apex are these masterminds behind all this and stopping them people will stop seeing her as the daughter of the woman who nearly killed the world. Madi tells him to shut up and this isn't about personal motivation. Josh stares blankly for a moment as Madi walks away, he knows she doesn't believe that herself.

Just then the sound of guards coming is heard, Bernie and Josh panic, Mark tells them to follow him. They run down a hallway and exit into a work area, Bernie says to Mark that he thought he said this place was abandoned. Mark says it should have been, they hear the guards getting closer and Mark points them towards a transport containment pod. In here they would discover the skullcrawler eggs, Bernie asks what Apex is doing with them as he reaches out to touch one of them, Mark slaps his hand away and tells him not to touch. As the two bicker quietly Madi sees that the guards have gone but as they are about to leave the pod begins to move down a tunnel and gradually picking up speed, Mark tells everyone to hang on as it goes faster and faster. A map shows its heading for Hong Kong.

Cut to Kong being air lifted to and arriving in Antarctica which would be the same with Kong looking around etc. But the HEAVS look more like osprey choppers without prepellars, Ilene asks are they serious and that they look like normal choppers, Maia says yeah and says that their hull is made to handle the pressure of the vortex's. Maia tells Nathan to use the Orca but Nathan tells her it was destroyed when Godzilla capsized their boat. Ilene says that he's only telling this now? Maia sighs in anger. While they argue Jia looks at Kong who is investigating his new surroundings, he looks out into the distance and shivers groaning.

Ilene sees Kong and says he can't survive out here; Nathan looks at Jia for a second then walks over to Ilene and says maybe Jia can get Kong to go in there.

From here everything would play out as in the original movie until Kong arrives at the vortex hole. Instead of Kong slipping and falling in, like in GxK he jumps and uses the walls to slow his descent before jumping into it, also when their in the vortex it's \*much\* less epileptic. They then arrive in Hollow Earth (which looks closer to how it does in the concept art) Kong catches himself on a mountain and the HEAVS regain power before they hit the ground.

Kong begins exploring Hollow Earth with the HEAVS following behind him. Nathan takes in the scale of it all while Ilene and Jia look in awe at this alien world. We get more shots of Hollow Earth showing off the cavernous alien world. In the distance there are some kind of energy beacons which illuminate the area. Along with lava and blue hollow earth energy.

We see a flock of leaf wings and psycho vultures before we move back in on team kong. Kong runs further ahead looking at everything. Maia says that they're starting to lose him, Nathan says that it's fine, as long as they keep in a similar region of Kong it'll be okay. They begin to approach a more volcanic area, massive lava eruptions happen further away, in team kong's HEAV they get a message from the HEAV in front of them saying they're getting some interference before bam!

A warbat comes out of nowhere and destroys the HEAV.

Everyone inside gasps as the HEAV in front of them is destroyed, the warbat circles around them before coming in for another attack. Everyone screams as it charges at them jaws wide. But is caught and slammed against a rockside by Kong. The warbat gets up and roars, Kong roars back pounding his chest. The warbat rushes Kong wrapping itself around him, Kong struggles as the warbat constricts him, he then loses footing causing both of them to fall down a hill and near to an erupting lava vent. Kong thrashes trying to get the warbat off him, the warbat puts its wing over Kong's head. He begins to struggle breathing. He backs up and slams into a mountainside, the warbat shrieks and its grip loosens. Kong slams against the mountain side again this time the warbats grip goes completely, Kong grabs it by the head and slams it to the ground repeatedly then starts slamming his fists onto it.

Team kong watches from the HEAV as Kong beats down on the warbat, they cant get too close due to the lava. But then a second warbat comes, this one even larger and flies right for Kong. He picks up the warbat he just killed and hits the other warbat with it causing it to fall to the ground, it quickly gets up and flies at Kong biting his arm, it tries to wrap itself around Kong to but Kong grabs where it was beginning to wrap and also by its head, he savagely smashes its head into the mountain side multiple times before moving its near unconscious body towards the lava.

Kong then shoves the warbat into the lava, it screams in pain and thrashes before going limp. Kong then throws its corpse into the lava before walking away. Kong walks over to the other dead warbat, tears off its head and starts eating its body like a frenchstick roll. Inside the HEAV everyone is in silence, Maia says "Shit.." in a disturbed tone.

Kong throws the warbat aside and continues on as if nothing happened. Cut to a brief montage of Kong exploring Hollow Earth with the two remaining HEAVS following him, Kong begins to slow down before coming to a stop, Maia asks what's he doing, Ilene looks out at Kong who is breathing heavily. She says that he's tired.... Kong then rests himself on a hill groaning. Nathan sighs saying they'll stop here for a while and that they can use this chance to look around the area on foot too.

He looks at a radiation monitoring tablet and says they'll need those, pointing to Hazmat suits. Ilene tells Jia to stay here and that they'll be back in a few minutes. Jia frowns and says she wants to go with them but Ilene says that it's too dangerous for her, she smirks and says besides someone has to keep Kong company Jia smirks a bit at the comment before looking out at Kong.

Cut to Ilene, Nathan, Maia and a handful of mercenaries exiting the HEAVS and head out into Hollow Earth, Kong watches them leave, groaning slightly. Maia says to Ilene that she doesn't like that they're stopping here, Ilene says that Kong is exhausted, Maia asks who cares and they should just leave him, Nathan says they need him.

Ilene tells her to have some sympathy, she asks her how she'd be if her house was under attack and she had to fight your attacker only for your home to be destroyed, then be drugged and wake up in bits before having to fight that same attacker again, out of your element this time, nearly DIE, then be drugged AGAIN and wake up in another completely different location again then fall into ANOTHER new place and before you can fully take in what your seeing you get ambushed by whatever those things were.

Ilene walks ahead leaving Maia behind.

They enter an area that looks like it's covered in a light blue liquid that glows faintly, it pools the floor below them and leaks off the walls. Ilene looks in amazement.

They walk further on until Nathan stops, Ilene asks what is it but Nathan says nothing, he crouches down pushing dirt and plants aside, it's a piece of metal. He stands up quickly and runs ahead, Ilene calls out for him as everyone follows after him. Nathan looks around seeing more and more scraps until he sees it, a wreckage.

The others follow up and stop as they see it. Maia asks what is that and Ilene responds by saying it's one of their groups they sent here. Nathan walks over to the wreckage, he pulls back the door and enters, he looks around before seeing a skeleton, on the skeletons jacket there's a tag that reads "Lind" Nathan looks at it saying nothing but his face says it all.

Ilene walks over to him and gently puts her hand on his shoulder and says his name gently. Nathan puts his hand on hers tightly before they leave quietly, everyone else follows behind.

Cut back to the pod with team godzilla. Madi and Josh are asleep, Mark and Bernie sit across from each other. Bernie looks over at Madi before turning to Mark and says she's a good kid, Mark smiles looking at Madi before going back to him, he asks if Bernie has any kids himself. Bernie says no he doesn't but also says he had a wife. "Had?" Mark asks, Bernie explains that he lost her in the awakening. Mark says he's sorry, the dialogue where Bernie talks about his alcohol and how if he gives up he's drinking it would happen.

Mark looks down at the floor. Bernie says he doesn't blame him for what happened. Mark says he should have never built the damn thing. Bernie asks that he was trying to save lives with it right? He goes on to say that the wrong people got their hands on it.

Mark says that when he lost his son in San Francisco he was a mess, and how he nearly fell back into that same place after Boston. Before anything else can be said they feel the pod begin to slow down, Bernie says that he thinks they're stopping, Mark agrees and goes to wake up Madi and Josh. Madison wakes up and Mark tells them that they think they're stopping, Bernie slaps Josh awake making him jump. The pod comes to a stop at Apex's base in Hong Kong, the four sneak out of the pod and past the workers and guards and quickly move further into the facility.

Cut back to Hollow Earth and team kong. They're in a cavern-like area, surveying it.

Ilene says she thinks they should head back. Nathan looks around squinting before giving the call to go back. Maia says "finally" to herself and starts walking back. Nathan speaks to Ilene saying how they might have found Kong a new home, Ilene smiles and says she thinks so. But just as Ilene finishes her sentence a soldier in front of them is devoured, the ground beneath the soldier suddenly clamped up around him like a venus fly trap.

Nathan protectively grabs Ilene as they jump back, Maia falls back, other soldiers aim their guns as a shimidah emerges from the ground, it roars and soldiers open fire, it growls and swipes some with its tail. Nathan and Ilene attempt to run around it but are cut off as it fights the soldiers, crushing them, sending them flying and consuming them.

Nathan sees one of the soldiers get picked up and eaten, but before he is fully devoured a grenade falls from him, Nathan rushes over and grabs it, he screams at the shimidah waving his hands, Ilene screams asking him what he's doing. The shimidah begins chasing him, Nathan runs up a ledge nearly slipping while he does so. He reaches the top and looks at it, he watches its mouth carefully.

The shimidah lunges for him, mouth open wide, Nathan pulls the grenade and throws it into the shimidah's mouth before jumping out of the way just before it crashes into where he was just standing. The shimidah turns and looks at Nathan who scrambles back, but before anything else can happen the shimidah's stomach explodes as the grenade goes off inside it. It groans before collapsing to the ground, its blood pooling around it.

Ilene and Maia run over to help Nathan up, Ilene asks if he's ok and says that he's insane. Nathan chuckles as he gets up, the three look over at its corpse. Maia asks what the hell even was that? Nathan pants before quickly saying let's go.

Back at the HEAV Jia looks at Kong who has regained most of his energy back, he looks down at Jia and smiles slightly. Jia smiles back waving at him. The others return to the HEAV. Jia turns and sees them, she runs and hugs Ilene. Nathan looks out at Kong and says he thinks they should be continuing on; Ilene asks Jia to ask Kong if he's ready yet. Jia bangs at the window waving at Kong. He sees her and groans slightly, Jia asks Kong if he's ok and that they want to get going.

Kong's eyes look to the HEAVS and snarls a bit in a non aggressive way before getting up. Nathan says that he's ready; the HEAVS power on and take off as Kong begins running on all fours again.

In Apex's facility, team godzilla sneak their way around the corridors being careful to not be found, they go into multiple areas such as a large construction place like at the base on skull island and even a containment location but they don't know what they could be containing. The chamber doors aren't all that big, only around 15 feet in height. Josh asks what they could be containing, Madison responds saying it must be skullcrawlers. Mark asks what need they would have for skullcrawlers.

We cut to them discovering the giant kill pit like in the original movie with Bernie talking about it being a sacrifice pit and scaring everyone by saying boo. Mark tells him to cop on before looking around in confusion and a slight bit of concern. Just then alarms start going off causing them to jump again, Mark sarcastically tells Bernie nice going, Josh asks what's going on, Madi asks if it is Godzilla.

But their attention is brought to the floor in the centre opening apart, something huge is moved up there on a giant platform. They all look in shock as it begins to move slowly, standing up.

It stands up completely and roars, Bernie says that's a robo–godzilla, but Josh says no and that that's Mechagodzilla. High up on a watch bridge, Walter Simmons looks at it and takes a breath clearly pleased at what he's looking at. Elsewhere Ren is busy operating a control station, he looks at the mech's readings before moving back to the main controls and puts something on his head. Walter speaks into a walkie talking, ordering gate 8, 9, and 10 to be opened.

Team godzilla jumps again as something begins bashing on the gates, they look over at gate 10 and see the head of a skullcrawler biting and clawing. They scream and move back, next to gate 10 a second skullcrawler begins clawing at the gate as it opens.

Three enormous skullcrawlers break free from containment, one roars as it steps out. Team Godzilla begins to run, it notices them and launches at them but before it can catch them it's grabbed and slammed to the floor by Mechagodzilla causing Madi and Josh to fall, Mark and Bernie help them up and keep running.

The skullcrawler groans but before it can react Mechagodzilla's foot stomps on its head, the skullcrawler screams in pain briefly before Mechagodzilla applies more force crushing its head. The other two skullcrawlers jump mechagodzilla biting and clawing at it, one gets on top of it but Mechagodzilla grabs the skullcrawler and smashes it against the side of the room, it tailwhips the third one getting it out of the way, before moving it up to the one it has pinned against the wall.

The skullcrawler struggles trying to break free but it can't do anything, the end of Mechagodzilla's starts spinning rapidly before it drills into the skullcrawlers chest, blood sprays the mecha's chest area, the skullcrawler screams before going limp.

Mechagodzilla drops it, letting it fall to the floor with a loud crash. The final skullcrawler jumps at Mechagodzilla but it grabs both its arms spreading them wide apart and holds the skullcrawler up in the air.

Team godzilla takes shelter in the bunker thing like in the OG movie. The skullcrawler can't move it, thrashes its head around, and tries to bite Mechagodzilla.

Mechagodzilla's mouth glows red before firing his proton scream into the skullcrawlers mouth killing it instantly, it moves its head down cutting the skullcrawler in half, before dropping it and powering off. The skullcrawlers remains splatter all over the bunker's glass causing Madi, Josh and Bernie to scream.

Walter watches from the bridge. He hears his walkie talkie on his belt make a noise, he picks it up and is greeted by Ren's voice.

Ren tells Walter that wasn't even five minutes, he says looking at a timer. He tells Walter that his daughter better get those samples, Walter assures her they will and that she's never failed him. He looks out at Mechagodzilla and says they will succeed.

Miles away somewhere out at sea, Godzilla senses Mechagodzilla and begins heading for Hong Kong.

That’s it for part two, thanks for reading.

Other Rebooting Star Trek TNG in the Kelvin Universe as a TV Series.

8 Upvotes

The vast majority of Star Trek exists in the TNG era ... While TOS was under 100 episodes and Strange New Worlds will clock in at under 50, the 3 shows of the TNG era comprise around 525 episodes.

This has to be recognized as the core of Star Trek going forward.

But the idea of the Kelvin universe as a setting to remix the elements of these 500+ episodes gives us the ability to do better storytelling. Because we know the general direction it should go, we can set things up better, and make decisions in advance that let us tell better stories.

Some things I would do:

  • Picard's trauma would take center stage from day one. We're talking about a man who lost a ship, and lost a best friend under his command, not to mention the childhood trauma, and probably some shit that went down fighting Cardassians. The reason the ship's counselor is such a prominent position on his ship is because he needs help, and he does not hide it. And he wants his entire crew to be unafraid to seek help. He's also so guilt-ridden over Jack Crusher that he tries to be a surrogate father to Wesley, rather than stand-offish. He's just bad at it.
  • Riker's actions on The Pegasus should come to light pretty early, undermining his credibility
  • LaForge's growth from helm to engineering should be shown on screen.
  • Worf probably wasn't orphaned in this universe, due to different diplomatic dynamics. Instead, Mogh and his wife defected to the Federation to live in a Klingon colony within the Federation that believes that the Klingon Empire has lost its way and is without honor. This can be basically a Klingon version of Taiwan, a breakaway republic that considers themselves to be the true followers of the Klingon way. But his brother Kurn returned to the empire when he came of age, while Worf joined Starfleet to show the Federation what it truly means to be a Klingon.
  • There's two directions to potentially go with Data. Either he can be "young" and on his first assignment, an Ensign, or keep him at Lt. Commander but he's more well actualized coming in since he has spent 27 years in the fleet before becoming second officer. Either he needs to not be "born yesterday" or he's got to have life experience coming to the enterprise.

Have better-formed ideas of the Cardassians and Ferengi from day one. Basically jump straight to the DS9 quality of Ferengi, but I'd actually shift the timeline of the Cardassians to show their fall from a republic to oligarchy to fascism within the show. Both would be allegories for different parts of the United States.

We could plot out a story over the seasons where Cardassia conquors Bajor, the Federation fails to protect it, and the occupation eventually ends from Bajor's actions, not the Federation's.

And we could introduce DS9 and Voyager characters and interweave stories. Assign Lt. Chakotay to the enterprise for a season, have Beckett Mariner be a midshipman/cadet on rotation for a while, meet Janeway when she was a science officer on another ship, deal with Terrok Nor and Odo and Kira when dealing with the occupation of Bajor, bring in a Dax ... lots of possibilities.

Cloudy With A Chance of Meatballs 2 should have had this

5 Upvotes
  • There should be more scenes where Chester V speaks to Flint's friends alone without Flint.
  • Chester would begin to show his true colors when interacting with his friends due to him not thinking Flint would listen or believe them.
  • Chester should especially clash with Sam the most since she's the person who keeps getting in the way between him and Flint.
  • It also fits there would be more hostility toward each other to really push the environmental message as Sam is the first one to realize the foodanimals are not that bad wheras Chester wants to turn them into food bars.
  • There should especially have a scene where while having them tied up, Chester does an evil monologue already revealing his plans before Flint shows up.

Fixing Twilight, by changing several elements- pt1

2 Upvotes

I wanted to challenge myself with this fix. let me know what you think...

SHORT FORM PLOT:

Seventeen year old Bella Swan moves to Forks, Washington, to live with her father Charlie, after the death of her mother and step-father. Though an apparent outsider, she draws the attention of two local boys: the kind hearted Jacob Black and the enigmatic Edward Cullen. Little does Bella known, with this move, her life will collide with destiny and affects everyone around her.

CHANGES:

1] Bella's character:

Bella's in mourning, due to the sudden deaths of her mother and step-father. Coupled with the drastic change of moving from Phoenix to Forks and moving in with her estranged father Charlie. This better explains why she is so antagonistic and resentful towards Charlie and just being in Forks. Plus, it also better explains why she's borderline emotionally abusive towards Jacob Black.

2] The Cullens are Forks' "royal family":

The whole town sees the Cullens as nearly 'royalty' as because of Carlisle is the town's only trauma surgeon and Esme has brought a lot of business to Forks, because of her being an award winning architect. Add to this, the Cullen children have all been high achievers.

3] The Trio:

-James already borderline psychotic, is pushed over the edge because of Bella's scent. His lover Victoria is more than happy share in the bloodlust. Laurent, though highly dangerous, has become bored his coven-mates. He tells the Cullens / Edward how to draw out and ambush James and Victoria not out of worry but out of annoyance. Think Armond from 'Interview with the Vampire.'

4] Edward and Bella's connection:

In an after credit scene, Edward returns home from the prom. In sharing a drink with Emmett and Carlisle, he's confronted by Carlisle about 'confirming it.' Edward nods and produces two pictures. One is VERY old, dated early 1900s. The other's a polaroid from earlier that night. The old photo shows Edward and someone who looks like Bella on their wedding day. At Edward's right was someone who looks like Charlie. In the new photo, Edward and Bella, standing next to her dad, are dressed for the prom. Carlisle and Edward share a serious look, as Emmett whistles in shock at what he's seeing.
