Plot:

The film opens in a Navada police station where Officers (highly strung) Trent Bovey and goofy (Shaquielle O'Neil obsessed) Larry Steen are enjoying lunch in the canteen and bickering incesantly about nonsense, a call comes in and they make their way to their helicopter to assist in the road chase of a bank robbing gang.

 

The mission is a success (despite the antics of the pilots, Larry is suffering from a hangover and showered the city below in puke after a bout of air sickness and Trent getting stessed suffers a migrane and has an attack of momentary blindness), the duo hit the bar with other officers to celebrate. Larry becomes obsessed with stripper Angelica Treasures. He questions who he'd rather spend his time wth, Angelica or Shaq, and becomes upset embarrassing his partner. As they head home, lights are seen falling to earth from the sky.

 

The next day, another call comes in for a minor desturbance in the city where the perpertrator has escaped into the desert, Larry and Trent fly out there and find what appears to be crashed spacecraft. Larry forgot to refuel the helicopter and they are forced to make an emergency landing next to the craft.

 

Larry and Trent argue and meet local reporter Stephanie Sheridan who is trying to investigate the mysterious craft. Trent and Stephanie flirt, whilst Larry makes a fool of himself by coming on too strong. They are unable to find a way into the craft so call for backup and head back to the station.

 

Later that night, as police and FBI investigate the ship, it opens up and two huge monsters and an extremely small one come out and kill everyone. After the massacre the monsters yake human form from dead FBI and military personal. After the two subordinates (Grink and Grogg) turn into Goldberg and Sapp respectively, Emperor Gwish is less impressed with his body (Ferrell) and complains about his host being ugly, having eyes that are too small, strange hair and other things.

 

Larry and Trent are in a supermarket, Larry is acting childlike annoying his friend, they bump into Stephanie, who they try to persuade not to go back to the crash site and to go to a bar with them instead.

 

Emperor Gwish and his lackeys are in a local resturant. They act strange and local staff become away of their strange ways, when challenged they aliens attack everyone there and destroy the place. Gwish reveals that they need silicon to mend the ship.

 

In the strip club, Larry, Trent and Stephanie are a little worse for wear. Larry hits on Stephanie but gets rebuffed, and hits on Angelica Treasures but gets knocked back again, he then storms out when he sees Trent and Stephanie kiss. They follow him out of the bar but all hell has broken loose outside (although Larry is so drunk/angry/upset he doesn't even notice, however the three manage to escape after failing to save some strippers (including Angelica) who are kidnapped by the aliens. After arguing for a bit they decide to head to the station to see what they can do to help, but on their arrival they find it destroyed. They agree to head to the crash site by helicoper.

 

Emperor Gwish and his lackeys are back at the crash, Gwish is squeezing silicon out of strippers one by one into a vat. Angelica is locked in a cage.

 

Larry, Trent and Stephanie fly to the crash site, this time Larry doesn't need to throw up but instead has a bowel movement out of the helicopter. They arrive at the site and find their way into the craft. They find the aliens but Trent and Stephanie get chased out by the heavies, Larry hides. When they're outside the ship starts up and flies away, Trent/Steph follow them in the helicopter.

 

Larry is on the ship and by pure chance and cowardice manages to save Angelica as she's about to be squeezed, they manage to flee just as Emperor Gwish is forced to crash land into a casino ruining a game of poker involving Shaq, who is not happy and decks both Grink and Grogg as they chase Larry and Angelica through the casino. Trent and Stephanie confront Gwish in the ship and manages to defeat him (by stamping on him in his alien form).

 

Afterwards, Trent, Larry, Shaq, Stephanie and Angelica celebrate and get drunk. Larry and Angelica spend the night together.

 

Six months later, Larry and Angelica are married but getting a divorce because Larry is not really good enough for her and she was only with him because he saved her and the effect has worn off a little now. He visits Trent and Stephanie who are happy together, they get drunk as in the background a light is seen dropping to earth.

Premier League Pictures: heliCOPters

 

Premier League Pictures struck comic gold with this wacky cop film. While many people may complain about the poor production of the movie, the story and dialog were great and really helped in the box office. The star power led by Ben Stiller and Jack Black really helped sell out the box office. The only real complaint I have about the movie is that it lacked any real substance. Having said that, it was exactly what you would expect from this type of film.

Ranging from things like James' college roommate "Uncle Tiny"(Kevin James) freeloading on their couch for the past three years, their son "Junior"(Erik Per Sullivan) throwing parties, stealing horses from across town and riding his skateboard off of roofs, while they worry about their daughter Sasha(Ariel Winter) constantly getting suspended from school for torturing the teachers with her antics, and her throwing major tantrums at home when she doesn't get her way.

Location- Los Angeles

Budget- 215,000 Production, 300,000 Marketing 485,000 actors/director = 1 Million spent

Duration - 91 Minutes

 

Money Remaining: $0

 

Laughing Rabbit Productions had the right idea with this film, but it lacked that special "it" factor. Throughout the film we saw Steve Martin listening to these outrageously funny stories about a majorly dysfunctional family, but he never intervenes with any humor of his own. In the end I had high hopes for this film, but it just sizzled out.

 

Rating: 2.5 out of 5 stars

Revenue: 1,250,000 dollars

New Balance: 1,250,000 dollars

 

Steve Martin was disappointed with the direction of the film and blames Dennis Dugan. As a result these two are starting to dislike each other and may not work well in future films.

 

Adam Sandler has increased in popularity.

 

Comedies are starting to become stale. As a result the revenue brought in from comedies will be less.

Title: Normalcy

Production Company: Futtbuck Studios

Genre: Drama/Mystery

Rating: R

Run Time: 86 minutes

Location: Boston

 

Director: Michael Mann

 

Starring:

Orlando Bloom (Andy Gerrity)

 

Co-starring:

Jared Leto (Frank Mahoney)

Roy Winstone (Captain Mike Benedict)

Kathy Bates (Bonnie Gerrity)

Diana Argon (Lori Gerrity)

 

Marketing: 300 K

Production: 100 K

 

 

Summary:

 

We open the film at Lori Gerrity's(Glee's Diana Argon) baby shower, which is hosted by her feisty mother in-law Bonnie Gerrity (Kathy Bates). During a cliche baby shower game, Bonnie confides in Lori that she considers her a daughter and that she'll always be welcome in the family.

 

Merriment ensues.

 

While all this is going on we see Lori's husband Andy Gerrity (Orlando Bloom) getting ready for work with precision in how he showered, shaved, and dressed, before finally checkng his police issused side arm and shining his detective's badge. We see him then arrive into the polcice station where he succesfully interrogated a homicide suspect into admitting guilt in a recent murder. Andy's captain, Mike Benedict (Roy Winstone) heaps praise on Andy in the station and congratulates him on his soon to be born daughter.

 

The baby shower has ended, and Lori has arrived back home, where she begins to unpack the gifts, and begins her preparations for the nights slumber. As Lori is starting to get undressed we see a faceless figure creep into the house and vicously murder Lori and her unborn baby.

 

4 Years Later

 

We open in a bedroom where we see a dissheveled Andy in a pool of his own vomit. He slowly gets up, puts on his clothes and then causually wipes the vomit off his face. He begins brushing his teeth and looks in the mirror horrified at the blood-shot looking creature looking back at him. Andy then gets in his car and goes to the police station. We see Andy sitting in the office of Captain Benedict, who welcomes Andy back from his 6 month suspension and informs him that he is pairing him up with a new partner. Frank Mahoney (Jared Leto) is then introduced as Andy's new partner.

 

We then cut to a darkened room, where a faceless figure has abducted a female victim. Slowly, he begins to torture her.

 

Andy and Frank begin their new partnership with visable disdain towards each other, especially from Frank who feels dissrespected by being asked to work with Andy, who has now gained a reputation as an enigma. Andy, who now lives with his mother Bonnie, is still suffering from insomnia and slight PTSD from the shock of finding his wife butchered in their bedroom and has developed a drinking problem.

 

We see a flashback from 5 months after the brutal murder of his wife, and Andy is in the middle of an intervention from his mother and Captain Benedict, who considers Andy a son.

 

As Andy and Frank begin to warm up to each other, their are assigned a murder case and quickly realize that they are dealing with a serial killer. Andy and Frank keep getting closer and discover more clues, but it seems like the Southside Scapel (as he is now known) is one step ahead.

 

Slowly it dawns on Frank that Andy is the killer, but he wants hard evidence. The last 15-20 minutes turn into a cat and mouse game between Frank and Andy, who is still in denial about his involvment in the murders.

 

The movie ends with the realization that Andy Gerrity is The Southside Scapel, much to the shock and horror of those that knew him.

Futtbuck Studios: Normalcy

 

Don't let the title of this film confuse you, there is nothing normal about it. This is a drama that is sure to leave you in shock and suspense. The movie grabs you right from the beginning making you fall in love with Andy, played by Orlando Bloom. As the movie progresses you find yourself rooting more and more for Andy, first for the birth of his child who is then murdered, then for him to beat his addiction, and finally for him to find his wife's killer. Then the movie takes an unsuspecting turn as we realize the man we were cheering all along was actually the killer the entire time. This made me go back to watch the movie a second and even third time to see if at any point I could connect the dots to Andy before the movie just tells me it's him, and every time I'm unable to. This was a brilliant film and I can't wait to see what's next from Futtbuck Studios.

 

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars

Revenue: 5,000,000 dollars.

New Balance: 5,000,000 dollars

 

Orlando Bloom has gained mega popularity with his performance in this film and should be up for actor of the week.

 

Jared Leto has received a large popularity increase as well, and is looking to be a leading actor in his next film.

Waiting for a response on negotiations.

 

I should note that I do accept Anthony Stewart Head's 100k offer.

 

Also, if I am unable to get the lower prices I want, I will have to lower my marketing budget. Production will be very minimalist.

 

Also also, do director walk-ons cost anything extra?

Guy Ritchie will direct your film for 125,000 dollars

Nathan Fillion will agree to terms for 80,000 dollars

Nichelle Nichols will agree to terms for 65,000 dollars

Tom Felton will agree to terms for 70,000 dollars

Laven Rambin will agree to terms for 50,000 dollars

Rachel Hurd-Wood will agree to terms for 55,000 dollars

Aleisha Allen will agree to terms for 40,000 dollars

 

If you accept these terms you can start filming immediately, otherwise you can try to continue negotiations.

 

All terms are accepted, with the exception of Zac Efron.

 

Zac, I respect you too much to try to lowball you. But you're asking more than my lead actor and lead actress and nearly as much as the director. That's a recipe for disaster behind the scenes, to be quite honest. So I think I need to go another direction here. I think I can find a project that lets you be a true lead down the road, but not this one.

 

After a quick rewrite, I'd like to call in Chord Overstreet to negotiate.

With respects to Ms. Bearse, this is a drama and she's unproven both in movies and in serious drama in general. 40,000 is my counter offer, and we'll shoot in her current home state of Florida so she won't have to travel far.

 

For Mr. Miike, 110,000 and final cut.

 

For Mr. Perlman, 80,000 and guaranteed future role if the film makes a profit of 100k or more.

 

I also wish to note the only scripted "stunt" in the movie is a brief physical altercation with virtually no risk of injury.

 

Sorry man, I missed it.

 

Everyone agrees to your terms, you can begin filming immediately.

 

Also, I don't know what a director walk on is lol so if you can to elaborate I can answer your question.

The director having a small on-screen role, like Tarentino in Pulp Fiction.

 

Then that should be in your negotiations... you can use it this time if you want since you already agreed to terms and asked the question.

October Raven Productions Presents

Monster: A Modern Roman Drama

 

Rating: R

 

Genre: Drama

Director: Takashi Miike (110,000)

 

Lead Cast:

Anthony Stewart Head as William Owens (100,000)

Ron Pearlman as Detective Thomas St. John (80,000)

Amanda Bearse as Detective Patricia "Pat" Denver (40,000)

 

Supporting Cast:

None (not even extras)

 

Plot:

 

The story begins in a police interrogation room partitioned by a two-way mirror. In the smaller section, Detectives St. John (Perlman) and Denver (Bearse) are reading dossiers on the infamous "Eyes Sewn Shut Killer" William Owens (Head), who is handcuffed to a fixed chair on the other side of the mirror. Denver feels that this is a waste of time but St. John reminds her that he's "the only person known to have familiar contact with her".

 

The two enter the main part of the room and Owens remarks that he hopes this is over quick "because I'm due to be dead in the morning". The detectives are unfazed by his dry wit and tell him that one Lara Peterson is missing. Owens smile fades and he demands to know why they aren't looking for her. St. John tells him that the entire gang task force is looking for her. Denver then elaborates by saying it was probably retaliation for harboring the person who killed over twelve "that we know of" in the red light district. Someone wants blood for blood, and they need Owens to talk about some of his victims so they can put the missing pieces together.

 

Owens realizes he doesn't have much of a choice in the matter so he decides to "play the game", but on the condition that they must fufill certain requests of his. Denver says he's not getting out of his execution and Owens replies that it didn't even cross his mind. He notes that, as a neuroscientist before his crime spree, he was always fascinated by the way human memory works, that by experiencing certain pleasures, vivid memories can come back. He goes on to tell them that he might need to experience these things again... nothing sordid or illegal, just simple pleasures... to recall details. St. John agrees (to his partner's chagrin) and they start with his first victim. Owens then says he needs some lobster bisque soup for that. "I'm entitled to a last meal anyway, aren't I?"

 

St. John calls in the request as Denver calls for a conference on the other side of the mirror. Denver doesn't believe Owens has anything and "he's just screwing with our head" and doubts he even cares about Lara. St. John points out his reaction to the news: "Look, I don't get why a sick creep like him would care about her, but he does." Denver reluctantly decides to keep this up.

 

It's a half hour later and Owens is unbound and eating the soup. He loves the texture and asks if they got it "from Marshall's Soups on third avenue". St. John says they got it from across the street. Owens said Marshall's is where he met the girl... "Sunshine, she said her name was. Obviously her work name, but I never cared to learn her Christian name". He said he was fascinated by her eyes. "Eyes, having a window to the soul, and that poor tart's soul was so tired. Just... wanted her life to end. Even without the bruises, her eyes showed she was in such a miserable pain..." He goes on tangent on remarking on how humans learn from right and wrong. "Why does the child know not to hurt his pet dog? He doesn't until he gets punished for it. He'll get lectured about what he did but the lash of his father's belt is what makes him stay his hand the next time he thinks about doing it."

 

Denver asks him why he's stalling, and he replies that he's just explaining why he decided to kill Sunshine that night. "I realized that, despite Kevorkian's punishment, that he was right to euthanize people. To end their suffering. What is so wrong about giving someone what they want more than anything else?" He then says he paid her for an evening, up front of course, and then talks about how he strangled her with her own stockings. He said that he then sewed her eyes shut "So she wouldn't have to look at the world that caused her such misery any more." St. John notes that serial killer profilers believed he sewed their eyes shut first before killing them. Owens said "Oh, that was true for the others, but I just felt so sorry for the poor thing." Denver loses her patience and asks if she said she worked for anyone, Owens gives a negatory.

 

St. John is still keeping his cool and goes to the next victim, Owens looks at the picture and says he was delighted by the meal but he'll need something more to refresh his memory: A dozen white roses. Denver is incredulous and asks him where the hell he thinks they can get roses at this hour, but St. John interjects and says they'll make it happen.

 

Flash forward again and St. John and Denver are walking into the main part of the room again, tossing flowers onto the table. Owens picks them up and smells them, taking his time. Denver is getting more impatient but St. John gives her a look. Owens reminds themm how he was finally caught, when they realized he was leaving white roses where he found his "lost souls aching for freedom".

 

He said he happened to be just on his say from leaving a bouquet when he met Mirabelle. "Assuming that was her real name, bless her heart." He called her a sweet girl, "not half as sweet as dear Lara of course, nor even like Sunshine, but still a charming little lady." He said she had a husband, but he was a drug addict and "by the sound of it, a scoundrel in every sense of the word". After noting that she became a prostitute to pay off her husband's debts, he remarked that "she was far too good for him, and I told her so, but she wouldn't hear it." He went on by saying he never actually consorted with his "lost souls" but he almost did with her, because she smelt of white roses, and went on how soft her hair was as he was sewing her eyes.

 

Denver says she doesn't want to hear any more, and wants to know who she owed money to. He said she claimed it was a Russian mob family. Denver looks at St. John, saying the only Russian family in the city was the Kostova family. St. John notes that they deal heavily in heroin and white slavery. This concerns Owens who says "Well, get after them then!" St John says we need to cover all the bases and there's one more victim left.

 

Owens says he has one more request but it will unfortunately it will be a hard one. Denver sarcastically asks if it's going to need a guitar next, and Owens says "Why, madam detective, that's exactly what I'll need!" Denver shoots him a glare but St John says he happens to have an acoustic guitar in his office, helps him think. Owens notes the irony and St John asks Denver to get some coffee while he gets the guitar.

 

Fast forward again and Owens is singing "The End" by The Doors while playing the guitar. St John asks if he was a Doors fan. "Not really," remarks Owens, "Just the one song. Was more of a Hendrix fan." He asks them if they ever heard of synthesia. When they shake their heads, he explains it's a rare neural condition that's not entirely understood, but for some people certain audio stimuli, such as music, produce visual images, sometimes very psychedelic.

 

He believed that all people had synthesia-like visual connections with music in some way, just not in a literal sense. That's why, after sewing their eyes shut but just before he killed his "lost children", he played "The End" for them. He hoped that it would bring comfort, that they could understand what he was giving them. He did it for "Diamond", noting that, of all his victims, she was the only one that repulsed him.

 

This is when Denver loses it and punches Owens before choking him, saying furiously that Diamond was her sister, calling him a "Sick, sadistic f---". St John has to literally pry Denver off of Owens, who manages to say that Denver didn't have Diamond's eyes... she had Lara's. "Those sweet, blue eyes...". St John has to keep holding his partner back, dragging her to the other room.

 

St John says he should have told him one of the victims was related to her, noting that "I was there when you married Carla and you never even mentioned you had a sister to me in your life!" Denver says she fell out of touch with her after she dropped out of high school and they were patching things up before she was murdered. St John tells her to calm down or she might lose her badge. Denver takes a deep breath and they go back in.

 

Owens needs no more pressing as "Those passionate eyes" have helped him remember so much more. He notes that Diamond actually told him she was working for the Kostova family, and she knew all about the deaths of Sunshine and Mirabelle because they were under their employ too. He also says he forgives Denver for her outburst, saying that he would have done the very same thing to persons who took Lara. St John is satisfied and goes to pass the information on to the gang task force

 

Denver stays put and looks to Owens, for the first time her expression has softened to him. She says she might be able to call the governor and grant him a reprieve. Owens thanks her for the offer, but says that he too was weary of the world, and was ready to face death. Denver asks if he at least wants to see Lara again if they find her, and Owens says all he wants is to wish her a happy 13th birthday.

 

Owens reveals that when he first met Lara, she had broken into his apartment, having ran away from an orphanage. "I was surprised to see an eight year old girl curled up on my couch. Turns out I forgot to lock my door that day." He almost turned her over to the police, but "those blue eyes... so pure and innocent... I couldn't bear to do it," and convinced her to return so he could legally adopt her. He does ask Denver if she can be the officer who oversees the lethal injection. She says she'll ask, noting that she thought Owens was nothing more than a monster. Owens smiles as he replies: "I am a monster, but even monsters have hearts."

 

The movie ends in the execution chamber, Owens is strapped on a gurney. Denver steps into the room, holds his hand, and says "They found her. She's safe, and she loves you very much." He smiles and closes his eyes, singing the first few bars of "The End" as the movie fades to black.

Hello there agent mad5226, this is owner of Goliath of Entertainment, please contact the following talents for an upcoming movie. Here's some basic info about the movie, their character and perks:

 

Title: Emerald Love

 

Rating: PG-13

 

Genre: Romantic Comedy

 

Marketing Budget: Roughly around 400,000, will throw more if there's money left

 

Brief Summary: A man lives an usual life until the death of his illegitimate father, who happens to be a very rich man. According the death man's will, he has shared part of his property to all the illegitimate sons of his. The protagonist gets an emerald ring, which leads to many money-seeking ladies coming his way.

 

Director - Marc Webb

 

Lead Actor - Ryan Gosling

"Plays a 'nerd' character, which has to dress and look in a not-so-attractive-way for the first half of the film. He doesn't believe in love(due to past experience) and just wants to have fun enjoying his life, alone. The incident has girls swarming his way. He isn't social-awakard like the usual stereotype nerd but he just...not really care about his look and don't really socialize that much, a typical hardworker in the company. The personalities do change in the film, and also the look. If this film is a hit(> 4.0 or if I deem your performance to be impressive), expect a lead role in one of my production's next 5 movies[Perk]."

 

Lead Actress - Rose Byrne

"Due to some financial problem, she needs a way to get a sum of money fast. Overall, she's a standard independent girl. In a long relationship with his boyfriend due to the company of her BF sending him outstation 2 years ago. The relationship so far is 5 years, that is her second relationship as she prefer long term relationship than puppy's love. There's plan for the character to have a minor mental problem, nothing too huge though. If this film is a hit(> 4.0 or if I deem your performance to be impressive), expect a lead role in one of my production's next 5 movies[Perk]."

 

Support Actress - Mila Kunis

"Friend of the lead actress. A major killer in the world of love, she teaches the lead actress how to win a guy's heart and gives her all sort of advice and so on. In short, the strategist."

 

SUpport Actress - Amber Heard

"Another female gunning for the ring. She's trying to break the leads down. Can be bitchy at time but all in all, a hot girl, one a normal guy would kill someone to land on."

 

Support Actor - Bradley Cooper

"Current boyfriend of the main actress, appears multiple time in the film as imagination or memory. Actual appearance is on the latter part of the film, plays a bad guy and a major obstacle in the latter part of the film. In a long range relationship with the lead actress."

 

(Minor) Support Actor - Ken Jeong

"Appears with his gang to do the 'dirty deed' for his clients. Cocky and expressive. Kind of like in The Hangover."

 

(Minor) Support Actor - Cody Linley

"Pretty minor role, lead actress's brother that is in jail. Just there for one(or two) scenes but I don't want an extra for this role."

Accept on all instead for De Niro. How much would Robert Duvall cost me? Or William H. Macy? Also, I'd like to bump marketing down from 350k to 300k.

William H. Macy will agree to terms for 100,000 dollars
