Some Idea Choices

Okay, so now that NaNo is branching out to June's Scriptfrenzy, (I guess NaScreeWriMo just doesn't have the same ring to it) I've been thinking about what I might do for a new movie. We won't mention that I haven't finished my dragon movie yet... or my half a young adult book... but I want to start fresh.

So any preferences?

1. (Sci-Fi) A movie take on Space May Bee. A girl wakes up on a strange alien space ship to find that she's been frozen and launched into space by a rather crazy brother. I've got in mind a sort of Farscapish feel to it, but no worm holes or alternate Earths. Her Earth has been dead and gone for hundreds of years.

2. (Sci-Fi) Main Character (as of yet no name) is a member of a genetically altered Royal Guard who lives, eats and breathes her job. Unfortunately she's accused of treason. Although she's cleared, she's treated like a leper. She's forced to resign and become a starship pilot/mercenary/black market runner. I'm imagining the typical grumpy hard ass/kick ass quiet type who proves she has a heart of gold.

3. Or I could write one of those totally predictable Teacher in the Inner City movies, where the kids give him/her a hard time, but with perserverence they all go to college and live happily ever after. (This is my comment on Coach Carter earlier in the week. I suppose cops get tired of watching cop dramas, but hey, give me a break.)

4. I'll have more choices later... I think... Hey, it's only April.

BTW, speaking of movies, Liz and I saw a free screening of a brilliantly funny movie called Hot Fuzz. It's by the same guys who did Shaun of the Dead. Go see it. Hilarious. Really.
