Movie Idea: Hardcore Husky working on a new screenplay

DerekJohnson

I had a long talk with Swaye last week. At one point, we discussed his past of having gone from flying Navy jets to getting fired at Jiffy Lube and working for Orkin.

So we came up with the idea of a sequel to An Officer and a Gentleman: 40 years later

Richard Gere's character (Zach Mayo) is out of the Navy, and working at Jiffy Lube. Debra Winger's best days are behind her. She's shuffling around the double wide in her bunny slippers and yelling all the time. Lots of possibilities for storytelling.










and 40 Years later...

Debra Winger is actually pretty funny these days in The Ranch on Netflix. (laugh track super annoying). In fact, she DOES live in a trailer in that show.

Spoiler: Sam Elliott lays the wood to her in the first episode.

Swaye

If this shit doesn't win an Oscar then that shit is rigged.

As soon as we go into pre-production I will contact @BearsWiin for info on who is and isn't special for casting.

He will bankroll the film with spare change

She ain't bad at 63 years old either. Cast her as @Swaye's mom who hooked up with a red man after her car broke down on the rez and she was stranded drinking with the savages in a sweat lodge.

You say that like it is weird to try to pay set designers with rolls of nickles?

not to be a downer on this creative ideation session, but dude who now has a dead end career & wife's best days behind her who yells a lot...called life man. I don't think it's a unique situation and very few of us who are married with dead end careers would pay to go to a movie to "escape" that.

Just sayin'.

Does she happen to own a black couch?

I came up with a movie idea this week. It's a sequel to A Christmas Story where Ralphie gets drafted to go to the Korean War. He gets captured by the chinks and is tortured by the memories of eating at the Chinese restaurant all those years ago. He vows to escape the POW camp and shoot all their eyes out. Call it A Christmas Story 2: Chosin Reservoir Blues.

This thread delivers - well done.
