Contest! Ruin a movie!
« 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.
Will I get Night Owl points for quitting but not as much for getting fired?
Will I still be a member of the Owl's Pals? I'd hate to turn in my card. It's got a real owl feather under the lamination and everything.


Night Owl: Oh, indeed. I quit many a job ...better than being fired. You can keep your card... in fact, you get double points for quitting!

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.

All right, I’ve been thinking, when life gives you lemons, don’t make lemonade! Make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don’t want your damn lemons! What am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life’s manager! Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons! Do you know who I am? I’m the man whose gonna burn your house down – with the lemons! I'm gonna get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!

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

Or even better, at the end, Ernest does get shot.

Louis Creed: "What if I bury my son in the Pet Semetery?"

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."

The End
Will I get Night Owl points for quitting but not as much for getting fired?
Will I still be a member of the Owl's Pals? I'd hate to turn in my card. It's got a real owl feather under the lamination and everything.

The kid who got toxic waste in his eyes dies of cancer instead of becoming daredevil.
Best 20 minutes ever.

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.)

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

Tony and Manny decide to keep being dishwashers rather than get mixed up with coke.
