Hollywood Is Out of Ideas For TV Shows and Movies; Submit Your Ideas Here

[timb2]

Basically how many comic book movies do we need of different actors playing Batman or Spiderman? How many Law & Order's and NCIS's do we need??? Let's all judge everyones ideas for creative shows. Hollywood is too busy sexually harrassing each other and no decent ideas have been brought up I will say about the last 2 decades. So here is your chance.

I have written in the past Star Trek has totally messed up and a new TV show but made lets say 25 years after the original the storyline.Basically Captain Kirk Jr. and the chicks are still running around in mini-skirts and fistfights will be a mainstay.The Klingons have not mutated yet and look like a bunch of terrorists who still hate us.

Movies I would try

The Six Billion Dollar Man.
Yes do it serious and not some insult campy comedy that Hollywood have done in the past to everyones favorite TV shows and ruined the love of the fans of these shows mocking us. Some who I felt got RAW deals The Brady Bunch,21 Jump Street,Charlie's Angels,etc.


TV shows I would try
An updated version of maybe "Wanted DEAD or ALIVE" Yes bring back a good Biadasz Western to TV Play it serious and stop the Indians can't be bad,that that the hero has to have a weakness emotionally,etc.

i loved all those Irwin Allen shows The Time Tunnel ,The Land of The Giants,etc.I wish for The Time Tunnel because it gave a sense of History.

CARTOONS ON THE 3 BIG CHANNELS. does NBC really need the Today show on Saturday morning? Kids deserve their shows on Saturday morning and I mean like Bugs Bunny,Superfriends,Fat Albert, not a bunch of crap to sell a toy to them.

You can rate my ideas too.


OK some of mine WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE?

A good X Men movie would be cool but know there is some Fox/Disney conflict there.
An Aztec Empire drama type show; a lot to play with there due to the taboo culture and later Spanish invasion.
A Texas Revolution War movie would probably clean up if done well w good actors.
A Russian Mafia movie on both sides of the world

 

[JohnnyTheFox]

Got my vote for bringing back Saturday morning cartoons, loved some of the stuff by Sid and Mart Kroft especially HR Pufnstuff.
Other than that bring back Sandford and Son and All in the Family and ill be good

 

[darthseinfeld]

A LOTR/GOT crossover

 

[rynochop]

Kids have had it great on the cartoon front the last 25 plus years, and have that Boomerang channel for bugs bunny,etc.
I remember getting up before 6 and watching static on Saturday morning waiting for one of the stations to start broadcasting lol

Would love to see a serious reboot of Swamp Thing. No cheesy rubber monster outfits. A serious version as well. Either a movie series or a TV series.

Same for Buck Roger's. But would like to see a good Flash Gordon with modern special effects.

I was just talking to a friend last night that it is time someone remade Flash Gordon. I would like a serious version, but a campy version would be welcomed, too.

Let the people that put together Battlestar Galactica run a modern version of Buck Rogers. I think that would work well.

Yep. That Aztec/Cortes historical drama would have plenty to pull from. I'd be watching.

Along a similar line, the MacArthur period around WWII in the Pacific would be very interesting to me. As far as film and television goes, the Pacific arena of WWII is basically Pearl Harbor happened...then Merry Christmas Mr Lawrence...Nagasaki and Hiroshima...Japan surrenders...Godzilla...Sailor Moon.

So it is a thread of Hollywood running out of ideas that is filled with rehashing old shows...oh the irony.

You missed The Pacific mini-series and Letters from Iwo Jima?

 

[Nightman]

A serial killer movie called BINGO

An up and coming lawyer loses his fiance to elderly woman driver with a bumper sticker that says "I brake for BINGO"....... all you see is the hands on the wheel and a tiny old lady driving away

He never recovers and becomes addicted to drugs.....he loses his career and is reduced to working the Night Shift at a retirement home.......living in his Mom's basement........ all the old men make fun of him and all the ladies are repulsed by him

When a weekend field trip is scheduled he is left behind with a skeleton crew of aides for about 25 patients...... he is forced to call the BINGO game after dinner Friday and it triggers his repressed anger....they yell at him for messing up and missing numbers and being an all around loser

He then starts offing the patients that stayed behind one by one......... but 3 old timers figure it out and start fighting back....... just when they are about to corner him in the showers another orderly saves him....... the orderly is about to call the police when BINGO turns on him and kills him before he can figure it out.... he then offs the 3 tough guys when he throws a Defibrillator in the showers

BINGO goes thru all the patients rooms and safes and hit the road in one of their Cadillac

As he drives away you can see the bumper sticker......"I brake for BINGO".... a franchise is born

 

[Nightman]

I would love to see a George Washington biopic.......not enough Revolutionary War movies

Based on McCullough's books

Funny as I initially referenced the two Eastwood movies but removed them just before positing to keep it short.

I should have specified my interest was more about the post-war occupation period with MacArthur. Those movies and a few others do touch on the strange relationship that exists between Japan and Allied nations, but they're more an epilogue and more broad than I am thinking about. Whether it would be very specific take, like The Crown, or a Mad Men take on the era that's free to explore the cultural shift, I don't know that I prefer one over the other.

I did miss the mini-series. It might have sounded so similar to Band of Brothers that I skipped it. Maybe I'll look into it now that I have HBO and there's some distance from BoB.

It is not quite as good as Band of Brothers, but it is still the best representation of the Pacific theater I have seen.

Just finished watching it this weekend. I thought it was fantastic.

Been a while since they made a good western, too bad it is a miniseries.

That certainly beat's my brain child of "Turd patrol" consisting of a half dozen fat,spoiled cats whose 9 (or, 54)lives are seperated by centuries of time and circumstances ,each cast into a time warp and ending up together in an alien world constantly in search of their respective litter box's while surviving the many pitfalls & often amusing antics encountered


(Hollywood? For real? It can rot from a lingering gut shot)

in my mind i've already re-written logans run into a trilogy.

trouble is - i think the biggest issue for hollywood right now is everything is being remade. nothing original or captivating and it's showing in the theaters.
