What movies/television shows would you fund if you were insanely rich and could carry the whole thing on your budget alone? What autistically specific personal projects would you pay to see on screen?

A half-billion dollar, three-film production of the novel Swan Song (1987) by Robert McCammon, with practical effects only enhanced by CGI when they need to be

I want to direct a mixed media film (like Who Framed Roger Rabbit) about a weeb who's waifu comes to life and their ensuing autistic adventures.

Ooh, a 40 episode multi-generational series about late bronze age and the bronze age collapse, capped off with a movie.

Another one:
A spiritual remake of The Onedin Line, entrepreneurial hijinx in Victorian England and abroad. Shot on real ships. Capitalist competition, smuggling, opium war, industrialization, technological development, family drama!

>Jodorowsky's Dune
>Adaptation of The Crying of Lot 49
>Adaptation of The Plague by Camus

Probably just other book adaptations

A procedural cop show that is as cliche as possible and overacted and slowly becomes more and more surreal and disjointed as it goes on

long running drizzt show based on the books with the budget of a game of thrones season for every few episodes

Modern day Police Squad!

Sounds amazing.

A 5 hour experimental porn starring me

kino

a movie about the rhodesian bush war that paints rhodies as the good guys

If I won the lottery I thought about funding new episodes of The Soup with Joel McHale.

But then I download a torrent of some older episodes, which I value at an estimated 12.5 million dollars at a 50,000 dollars per episode valuation. By Grabthar's Hammer, what a savings!

Bring back Party Down

a tv adaptation of don quixote.

I would pay all my 3d waifus insane amounts of money to star in an artsy erotic film with me as the protag

tbqh, if I were ever insanely rich, I'd just spend the money on getting a girl to pretend to love me.

Del Toro's At The Mountains of Madness

Id buy the rights to star wars and kill the franchise entirely

I'd give 100 people i choose 1 million dollar budgets and see what they all come up with

This and I'd tirelessly work to destroy everything created after RotS

Swat Kats

You just bought yourself the infinitesimal risk that I'd win the lottery and fund The Community Movie just to spite you, fella!

WHAT'S THAT SPELL?

...

A proper, big budget version of war of the worlds in it's original Victorian setting and elements if the score drawn from the Jeff Wayne version.

100% accurate-to-the-text adaptations of a few Lovecraft works, starring unknown but good actors.

Fund a full on bleak representation of the high school experience.

No ridiculous character development with the protagonist somehow getting the hottest girl in the school and suddenly becoming the "cool" kid with a bunch of friends.
Just a character study of an isolated high school loner struggling through everyday social interactions.

>A spiritual remake of The Onedin Line, entrepreneurial hijinx in Victorian England and abroad. Shot on real ships. Capitalist competition, smuggling, opium war, industrialization, technological development, family drama!

My idea is similar: A full and faithful adaptation of the Aubrey-Maturin series, with every historical ship and battle mentioned being reconstructed from naval records so that every ship looks the part and every battle is free from ahistorical chicanery(except for the parts where Aubrey gets to shine against fictional ships, of course). It would also always be shot on location. No sunny part of Wales masquerading as a tropical island. Fame! Fortune! Friends! Family! Fears of cuckoldry! There's all the things that follow a man through his life! Then you've got the espionage plots, shipmates, rum ships, the inconveniences of having a political father or a man you cuckolded as a boss, and the different actions taken on dry land.

Each season would have its own rousing sea shanty at the start of the episode and a calmer classical piece played by Aubrey and Maturin to cap off the episode(unless it ends in disarray, of course). The background music itself would be the tunes to typical below-decks songs and instruments owned by common sailors when dealing with ship-matters such as the crew or handling of the ship(any scene with working men would have them sing faithful sea shanties to time their work) and when dealing with Aubrey and Maturin's relationship or their dealings outside of the ship such as family problems or politics there'd be classical pieces and instruments that higher-class people could afford to own.

several very high budget TV series based on Celtic mythology

a 2h long movie about thundershield

there arent enough 16th to 18th century movies being made

also i would make a 3h movie about the politics and gossip amongst ambassadors, princes and prime ministers that eventually led to ww1, where the 2 original countries involved, serbia and austria, were the last ones to actually do anything, and essentially germany just used it as an excuse to stir shit up over an assassination of someone most people didnt even like

and because of ancient alliances and inbred royal families essentially all of europe was forced to fight in this war which was basically a war for wars sake

i would also make a movie about the prussian invasion of denmark in 1864, where the danes, through some demented, delusional, charismatic christian leader refused to surrender against the overwhelming prussian force, which were basically just invading denmark for the sake of testing their brand new artillery. and at the end of the war, when the danes inevitably surrendered, prussia let them keep their independence because who the fuck wants to rule over denmark

I hope you get very rich user

i hope you don't get to write it at least, since you can't even fucking spell

i'll let you try and figure out where you fucked up

here's a hint. it's a common mistake seen amongst redditors

...

I fucking love it.

Rome season 3+

This would be great.

>We didn't get this shit because of fucking Prometheus

This... This is the saddest thing I've read in a while.

MALAZAN

Delete this now

I want to make a Victorian era war of the worlds in black and white.

Fuck. I honestly didn't see your post, god I hope one of us gets to do it.

...

Haven't they done that already with that Angie Tribecca or whatever it's called show?

I just came here to say this fucker's face is a fist magnet

It could be good, imagine thunderchild In all her glory attacking a tripod.

A mini series about the falklands war

I would have a time machine and go back in time to fuck hot women with my huge cock, like imagine Audrey Hepburn in a Teens like it Big scene.

>investing your money in a stupid idea like a time machine
>not just investing it in VR porn and sexbots

This is why you're not a millionaire in the first place.

BUMP!

Silmarillion series.

Give Christopher and the Tolkien Estate full creative control.

SHUT YOUR MOUTH

And fighting Americans, not French like the original Master & Commander novel.

Sounds like the original concept of Cool World.

ITS FUCKING TIME

although i'll only make The Horus Heresy though but it'll probably be 24 episodes or so

nothing but shit ideas in this thread

SHUT YO MOUF

>high budget Horus Heresy series on HBO or Netflix
my fucking dick

I'd pay for a third Hellboy movie.

Revolt in the Stars

My own sitcom about the seven ex-Nazis imprisoned at Spandau after Nuremburg.

A fully pornographic movie about a lesbian brothel owned by Hayley Atwell and Mary Elizabeth Winstead where clients played by Emily Blunt, Amy Adams, Emma Stone, Anne Hathaway, and Emma Roberts pay to secretly act out their sexual desires on submissive qt's played by Emily Kinney and Annasophia Robb. I'd pay them whatever was necessary.

A movie with a cast of 100% animatronic aliens, no human actors in the movie at all. Completely alien language too, with subtitles. The characters, world, plot, and everything else would be completely alien. It would be as bizarre and surreal as possible

An epic Vietnam War series shot on location using only practical effects. It would star some of Hollywoods most overbearing and annoying celebrities who feel the need to constantly spew their infantile thoughts at a weary public.
It will be directed by John Landis.

Small personal film where Scarlett Johansen and Alexandra Daddario both have a terminal illness and can only prolong their lives by rubbing their tits all over a male body and then i would case myself as the last man on the planet

Holy sheet

A sitcom about Robert, a dynamic entrepreneur running a kinoplex with the help of his 2 young employees with plots involving falcons, popcorn mines, and crab legs of course.

An animated Blood Meridian mini-series with Ed Harris voicing Judge Holden. The hardest part would be choosing the right artists (I don't think live-action could ever work). I'd spare zero details and probably see a return of a fat goose egg as it'd earn NC-17 easily.

Hyperion Cantos

I'd go with a Rogue Trader and his ragtag crew. Half procedural jewing in the stars, half overreaching plot. Well written and no meme characters (ok maybe some machine spirit and his body horror mechanicus bff misadventures here and there). Season finale would be buildup for three episode IG planet fall with SOB units and not MUHREENS (there could possibly be one or two with IG command in shadows). Full gore, full "war is horror", full planetary bombardment porn. The rogue trader would not save the world but just try to fucking survive.

Is it possible to have a thread like this without science fiction, fantasy, roleplaying game, video game fags spamming stupid shit for kids all over the place?

I'd personally love to see an adept adaptation of Foucault's Pendulum.

oh shit did not expect to see my post here already

i would give them enough time to flesh out each episode premise like they had for season 1 and 2 and bring them all together for a GOAT reunion

fucking loved that show

20 Seasons of MDE's World Peace

No. Most people harbor the childhood TV serie ideas forever.

That said, the spanish invasion of South America would be a helluva spectacle as a realistic tv series.

Sam Raimi Spider-Man 4.

Pic related as a GKesque series and gun/operator porn, along with subtle commentary on the differences between Americans and Russians.

School shooting in the finale?

loner guy plans his school shooting but another loner guy plans school bombing. its a battle of wits and determination which plan goes thru and which plan fails

Oil painting animation would be absolute kino

Last ten posts ITT are absolute cancer and were not posted by adults. Mods?

Street Sharks

SORRY M8 DONT TAKE CHECKS

The 1632 series made into a show.

An entire town gets put back in time during the Thirty Years War and they adapt to the disconnect from modern civilization and the regions politics. I just mainly want to see the interactions of a modern society meeting a past one. Aw fuck it, I'm gonna go try to find some more books like that now.
