>I really liked true detective season 1 and would like more of the similar stuff
I do like the idea though.

Sounds like it would legitimize white supremacy in the Jim Crow south. It needs to have a black protagonist and show the horrors of racism.

Here's an idea lets just do exactly True Detective season 1, but instead of bogging it down with muh dialogue, we actually follow through on the Lovecraft plotlines teased at the start.

It's more inspired by Faulkner desu. It would not have cool nihilistic detectives, but regular southerners and there would not be anything similar to Childress. I would just like to develop county like it is separate characters with regular small talks about weather, no philosophy for beginners dialog in a car.
well, no. But it has to have black characters, it is south after all.

Your idea is interesting, is some kind of western I presume.

Anyway my screenplay idea is set in Soviet Russia, Ukraine Chernobyl. Where a local nuclear reactor worker Danilov loses his job due to the explosion there. He moves with his family to Belarus in Brest oblast in the Forrest area. He than commit himself to wood labor and learns true values of nature. It is a psychological film in a way. /tell me what you think guys/

Interesting, always liked the nature related stuff in movies, but how would you move the plot?

Well, I still do not have the screenplay in detailed depth for now. It is just a crude idea. You see I always loved to connect nature the most priceless gift of God with common "unambitious" workers who discover their enlightenment by committing themselves with the nature at the end. That is where they discover their poetic soul.

It's a now LOTR trilogy that focuses entirely on the economics and tax systems of different areas in middle Earth.

sounds neat man, you should read Heidegger.

>Where a local nuclear reactor worker Danilov loses his job due to the explosion there
And then dies two weeks later due to radiation exposure.

Good to see that some people know about him, I appreciate your recommendation but I already know about him, in fact he was my main inspiration for the potential film I would like to wright! I read his book "What is Called Thinking" and it was inspirational, yes he did sort of express his support of the National Socialism in there, but he also talked how nature is the best place for living and developing of an artist's soul. Moreover Being and Time is a true masterpiece, I recommend it!

i would watch this.

have rust actually lose his mind at the end.

so ur film is about killing niggers?

Black Sunlight
>Western-Horror.
>Shot in black and white.
>A demonic entity has put a curse on the world, casting it under an eternal night and releasing his hellish horde upon mankind.
>Generations later, a nameless gunslinger arrives in a small town, looking to kill the vampire that rules and terrorizes the place.

The idea is for a trilogy. Werewolves and zombies in movie 2, Eldritchian creatures in 3.
The last shot is the Gunslinger - old, tired, and dying - seeing the sun rise for the first time in his life, as the movie turns from black and white to color.

How did you conclude that?

a story about a guy disdainful of popular culture and art who is so convinced of his intellectual and cultural superiority to the cheap entertainment paraded before the masses and its insipid tawdriness that he convinces himself its so formulaic and devoid of talent he could make something like it without any effort only come to grips with the fact that's he's actually a talentless rube and his pretension was mere posturing

You mentioned Mississippi and Christianity in the early 20th century, please tell me that niggers weren't killed there by whites

>whoa meta

kek

>bogging it down with muh dialogue
Literal fucking brainlet. Much of the mystery and misery of the story comes from the dialogue. I agree that maybe playing a little with the supernatural may be interesting but you can't take the only good thing of the show because you want CGI monsters on the screen.

He does at the end. You didn't get it.

here OP let me help you out

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chiefs_(miniseries)

sounds more like a Go Down, Moses rip off to me

gay

the jews would never allow it

>He does at the end
really? he seems very stable at the very end, after the shootout.

i'm talking stark raving mad. like needs-to-be-in-an-asylum kind of insane. not "whoa i saw some shit so im gonna say some more deep shit to my down to earth partner"

I wanna make a movie about Corporate America.

It's an art film showing 4 hours of some NEET POV shitposting on Sup Forums.

Set in (not) chicago/detrot in the winter, a homicide detective working out of an understaffed office tracks a serial killer who thinks he is a vampire. Initially he thinks e is just another crazy murderer, but after several incidents that defy reasonable explanation he begins to wonder if he is in fact a vampire. He then delvs into the underground goth/occult scene to gather more information on him as his followers who fully believe he is a vampire

the twist is the killer is killed before we get a definitive answer, but many of those questionable incidents leave it open ended

you are right, but I thought you were poltard
JUST
on a series note it would be much different

reminder : do not post your original ideas EVER.
it is well known that jews patrol this place for ideas.

inspired but not rip off. I found about the book after I came out with the idea.

A movie Idea i have called the big shoe

your idea sounded more character-driven than Chiefs anyway, but something to keep in mind

sounds neat, but yeah, the black and white to color thing is kinda gay.

...

>Hardworking people
>In the south

This is literally an episode of the X-files.

One of the worst episodes of the series, no less.

No he lost his job because he was at home drunk on cheap spirits when it blew

A ghost story set in the ghetto. Like if the characters who were killed in movies like Boyz n the Hood haunted the places where they lived decades later.

If you've ever seen some of those neighborhoods today, they're full of blight. Houses just falling in on themselves. Some people still live there, but most of them just have convenience stores, liquor stores, and funeral homes.

I think it would actually be pretty good. Some old gang banger gets out of prison, moves back into his old place, and he starts to get haunted by the dudes he killed. They're still teenagers, dressed in that era's style, but he's an old man now with a hollow life, a son that barely knows him, no job prospects, all his friends are dead and maybe haunt him too.

Get on it A24.
