Misc ideas

• A person goes to a 7-11 or grocery store, buys a bunch of junk food (but not an outrageous amount, like a shopping cart full; it has to look like they're going to eat it all in one sitting), and then at the check-out counter there's some kind of fruit (an apple? banana?) and the person unloads all of their junk food on the counter, looks at it, looks at the fruit, and then they take one of the pieces of fruit and put it on their pile of junk food.
• Make a series of movies inspired by the game "Driver".
  • The first movie should just be about the person learning the ropes.
  • The appeal of the first movie should be that it's realistic / actually teaches real tactics for getaway driving.
    • This is like the sequence in Reservoir Dogs where Mr. White is sitting in the car with the undercover cop, explaining how to conduct a bank robbery.
  • Experiment with maybe having all of the car-chases depicted in a single* camera shot, in the backseat, to heighten immersion. (* by "single" I mean "apparently single"; secret/hidden cuts are OK).
    • The problem here is that movies are all about cutting out "down time", so an unedited sequence might be boring. IDK, it would need to be experimented with.

Fun for movie fans

• Try to pack in as many discontinuities as possible without making them noticeable by the general audience. Have a scene in the movie in which a guy is playing a game in which he steals a person's wallet and then puts it back in the person's coat pockets as many times as possible while distracting the person about something else. (So it'll be a fun way to tease the audience)

Characters

• A guy who speaks with all of the common spelling mistakes you see in email / chat, as if he was reading from a script that had those mistakes.
  • He doesn't always say the words wrong; he says them wrong at the same frequency that someone would who isn't rereading what they write.
  • Examples: he says "qua-nit-tih-tee" instead of "quan-tih-tee", or "teh" instead of "the".
  • He isn't aware of what he's doing.
  • This isn't an interesting-enough idea to put a lot of emphasis on; it's more like a funny little detail to show in passing as part of a larger work.
  • It's probably better if he is only shown a few times and speaking in brief exchanges, so that it gradually dawns on the audience over the course of the movie what's going on with him.
    • Example: the first time he's shown, have him say a single line and make a single small / barely-noticeable mistake.
