I was thinking of writing a movie. I was going to call it, The Dead, Well, Not Really. Let me set the scene for you here:
A massive asteroid is plummeting towards earth. Via a joint nation, worldwide effort, our brightest young astronauts are sent into space armed with nuclear weapons in order to try to stop the oncoming asteroid. They don't succeed, yada yada yada, they return to the ruins of earth only to find a bunch of walking dead people. (But because they actually walking around and talking and stuff, they're not really dead. But the movie wouldn't be as scary if they were all still alive. I mean, what's so frightening about a bunch of alive people walking around trying to eat the flesh off your face?)
Anyways, you know, now it's up to our heros, the young always scared dude, the talented scientist, the good looking hunk, the witty never take anything too serious - always cracking jokes guy, and the blond bimbo who may or may not be sans shirt at any given time, to stop the dead people from walking, talking and eating their flesh. The only way to kill the "dead" people will be to insert a titanium stake through their 3rd and 4th rib. Of course, we come to find out, their spaceship is made exclusively out of titanium! I don't want to give away too much, because I mean, as soon as this thing gets picked up, I don't need a bunch of knock off wanna be films trying to do me one better before The Dead, Well, Not Really comes out.

Dude, you just described Christmas at my aunt's house... That's not a space station, that's a box of fudge!

I'm just anxious to know who buys it first.
I mean, the T.n.A. has to survive until at least the denouement… so that's right out.
Hrmm.
Curiouser and curiouser.
My money's on the funny guy; comedy writers always want like, triple scale.

I've always had this idea for a movie: there is a big asteroid coming to destroy Earth.. (This is set in the Cold War Period) The only way to destroy it is if both the US and Russia fire all their nukes at it. So just as they are about to fire them off into space... We find out that the russians fired their nukes at us!! Now we have to decide if we are to fire back at them or save the world by trying to blow up the asteroid with out nukes!@!!! Whats gonna happen?!?!?!?!?!? AHhhhh the tension!
