Title: Contest! Ruin a movie!
Post by: Doombot on October 01, 2007, 08:46:57 PM
Take a movie, change a element, decision or whatever to 'ruin' the movie.

Example:

INTERIOR: IMPERIAL STARDESTROYER.

On the main viewscreen, the lifepod carrying the two terrified
robots speeds away from the stricken Rebel spacecraft.

CHIEF PILOT: There goes another one.

CAPTAIN: Hold your fire. There are no life forms. It must have been
short-circuited. On second thought. Shoot it down. Just it case.

EXTERIOR: LIFEPOD CARRYING R2-D2 and C3PO explodes.

Bond:  Do you expect me to talk?
Auric Goldfinger:  No Mr. Bond. I expect you to die.

*Goldfinger leaves Bond to die in spite of Bond's attempts at convincing Auric that British Intelligence already knows about operation Grand Slam, essentially calling his bluff. Pussy Galore is never talked out of poison gassing Fort Knox. Auric robs Ft. Knox blind and SPECTRE now free of their biggest thorn holds the entire world hostage with nuclear missiles. Auric with his new-found wealth signs on with SPECTRE and quickly rises to the ranks of #2. (With no doubt designs on #1.)*

I more than ruined the movie, I ruined the entire series.

Ruin a movie? Don't you mean "end it like they were smart"?

To really ruin a movie, take a movie.
Any movie. At all.
Find a scene where someone is looking fondly at a friend, loved one, whatever. You know, the kind with the long medium shot or panning zoom or something.
Then have their head explode due to a sniper bullet.

Movie ruined :P

Jud Crandall: "We did that once. Back in the 40's. We had to burn the house to get rid of the monster that come out of the ground." "Uyah... don't forget how my ah dog and your cat became evil!"

Louis Creed "You're right. I won't do it then. Better to lose my son than have him come back as a monster."

Indy grabs the little golden idol and activates the temple's "self-destruct" mechanism.

He turns to run and accidentally steps on several raised plates and gets hit with poison darts. 

Delirious, he runs for the temple entrance when he hears a noise and turns to see a giant boulder rolling towards him.

Just then he loses conciousness from the poison.

The next shot is the exterior of the temple shuddering and belching out dust while Belach and his natives glance around perplexedly.

Roll credits.

(Sallah and Marcus have to try to get the Ark by themselves.  They die horribly.)

You're not thinking 4th dimensionally Hoopy. Doc picked 102 instead of 88 to activate the time jump. Since Marty never got to 102, he never traveled in time to avoid the photo booth.

Doc: "Marty! I didn't invent the time machine for financial gain. The intent here is to gain a clearer perception of humanity: where we've been, where we're going, the pitfalls, the possibilities, the perils and the promise. Perhaps even an answer to that universal question: why?"

Marty: "Hey, Doc, if we use the almanac we can use that money to set up think tanks, hospitals, donate to charites and help humanity with our winnings to say nothing of playing the stock market"

Hmm, that's eerily similar to ANOTHER POST in the SAME THREAD, including SENTENCE STRUCTURE and WORD CHOICE.

The crew of the Nostromo decides answering a distress signal from an unknown planet is too risky.

The only original contribution is the addition of plotting a course back to earth, which anyone who's a real fan of the movie could tell you is redundant because that was where they were already headed when they received the distress signal.

Up until this moment, I was unaware that I could be flattered AND insulted simultaneously.  Your plagiarism has shown me otherwise.
