    JCC Royale: Like Big Brother, except we pit 32 JCCers (the fundies, the trolls, the "slow," etc.) in a separate forum to post out and they attempt to kill one another. When they succeed, their computers electrocute them and they die for real.

    Video records the whole thing and we have a dedicated thread in JCC for it.

    Just for clarification, is this thread for pitching easily-statable concepts, or pitching concepts developed while high?

    Petwork... a re-make of Network, but with household pets as the characters. The Howard Beale role is voiced by George Clooney , and is played by a beagle.

    The Holy Bible, King Lear version... a re-writing of The Bible, mixed with some bits of Shakespeare.

    Doctor Whey... an American re-make of Doctor Who, but with The Doctor as gymnast, flying around in a GARDIS (Gym and Relative Dimension in Space). Mark Wahlberg is The First Doctor, with Brenda Song as his companion.

    Wittgenstein was actually Russell's pupil and later coworker. :p

    But I'd watch it.

    I'm still not entirely sure what twerking is, but it's apparent that it does nothing for the glutes. If you know Millie Cyprus, please tell the poor girl I'll teach her to squat and deadlift pro bono.

    Wittgenstein ended up being senior to Russell when he was elected to Moore's old chair.

    My pitch: Merchant Ivory/Jane Austen meets Space Nazis. The film starts as a 19th Century period drama set in the country estate of a baronet, then everyone gets slaughtered to death by space nazis. All the marketing prior to release focuses on the first 10 minutes of genteel conversation about Mr Darcy's britches, so people get a nice surprise when he gets shot in the face and his guts are eaten by space german shepherd dogs in minute 11.

    Well, I mean, the series would obviously be set in the early 1910s with Wittgenstein as Russell's headstrong new partner and James Ward acting as the gruff police chief. Obviously.

    My idea: a 1940s-set pulp-noir action-adventure film about a female crimefighter, who spends as much time in period lingerie as she does in a leather catsuit kicking butt.

    The Bible has plenty of blood, betrayal, ghosts, and pathos in it without needing Shakespeare to beef it up.
