Witness (1985). While protecting an Amish boy - who is the sole witness to a brutal murder - and his mother, a detective is forced to seek refuge within their community when his own life is threatened.

This is one of my mum's favourite movies, and I still remember her finally deciding I was old enough to watch it with her (when I probably wasn't, haha) and feeling every way this movie sings. And man, it holds up. Peter Weir really is THAT director, an uncanny touch with both the feminine and the masculine, with tenderness and violence, with languid lyricism and brute, effective punctuation. It's kind of insane to me that his body of work isn't given the same bated-breath treatment as some of his contemporaries. Anyway, this might just be a perfect romantic thriller, and far and away Harrison Ford's best work. 9/10.

Man in a Suitcase: Who's Mad Now? (1.27, ITC, 1968)

"I can get you stopped, you know that?"

"You can try."

"A foreigner, here under sufferance, so to speak... and, uh, you do have a past."

"And, uh, you do have a big mouth; and, uh, you do have some big friends - right?"

andy white - literally the re-embodiment of wallace from scott pilgrim. super monotone. "roommates" with danny. very prone to miscommunication due to monotoness and misunderstanding. works in an office cubicle (no one knows what he does). can't really pick up social cues and is extremely awkward (undiagnosed autism. doesn't know it exists) (29)

jacob anderson - ex of both danny and andy (at different times), super famous, yet none of his fans know about his past relationships with danny and andy. manipulative but does want danny back. currently dating melanie (fans know, they love them). scared that melanie will act negatively to his bisexuality and will think he's cheating on her (she won't). had some traumatic experiences that eventually turned into manipulation (he struggles with Trichotillomania). (39)

melanie waters - current girlfriend of jacob, super sweet and supportive. doesn't know of jacobs bisexuality but knows he has issues. thinks of danny and andy as friends. very overprotective of jacob (not necessarily a good thing). grocer (vegan store). unemployed for a while. struggling with employment (OCD and HPD. believes and treat jacob like they're married. which doesn't exactly make him uncomfortable but it's weird for him (he doesn't know what HPD is)) (internalized ableism) (24)

pamela rook - bitch (fires melanie) (52)

literally everyone is mentally ill in some shape or form

[giveamadeuschohisownmovie]

Pitch for the next Supermassive Game title after “The Quarry”:

Title:

INTO THE ABYSS (because the game is centered on deep sea diving)

/

/

Plot:

We follow 8 main characters who all work for Peele & Aster Inc, an oil company. The setting is one of Peele & Aster’s oil rigs in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean that is drilling oil deep below the ocean’s surface. Half the main cast are saturation divers whose job is to go under the sea to do maintenance on the drills, which is one of the most dangerous jobs in the world. The other half are company executives who are inspecting the site on the surface.

During one particular dive, the saturation divers discover a graveyard of ships that they hadn’t seen before. As they explore this graveyard, the crew begins to realize that there’s something out there dragging these ships down. Something…big. And unfortunately for them, they’re deep down in its natural environment. That being said, the surface crew isn’t safe either as whatever is responsible for the shipwreck graveyard is also targeting the oil rig.

(Spoiler alert: The villain is the Kraken)

/

/

Movie influences:

There’s really only two movies that I modeled this idea after; “Deep Blue Sea” and “Deep Rising”. I guess “Pirates of the Caribbean” is also an influence due to the use of the Kraken.

“The Abyss” is another good influence here. There’s also Michael Crichton’s “Sphere”. Also, if you’re a Markiplier fan or a gamer in general, there’s “Iron Lung”.

I want to be clear, even though this is a horror game set in the middle of the ocean, this is NOT meant to be similar to “Man of Medan” at all. Medan is a psychological horror movie, my idea is a giant monster flick.

/

/

Playable cast:

(NOTE: Unlike previous games, the cast is split into two groups. The first group is centered on the divers who are living in the underwater facility several miles deep below the surface. The second group is centered on the people at the surface rig, waiting for the divers to return. So the game alternates between surface and underwater)

The Saturation Divers -

1) Javier Garcia (played by Esai Morales): The most experienced diver and the leader of the underwater team. COMPASSIONATE, OVERBEARING, SENTIMENTAL.

2) Ricky Dalton (played by Joseph Quinn): The youngest of the underwater team and the least experienced diver. JOKER, INSECURE, IMPULSIVE.

3) Benji Wang (played by Aaron Yoo): The superstitious, god-fearing member of the underwater team who believes they’ve come across a demon. PARANOID, COMPLEX, FEARFUL.

4) Carmen Ybanez (played by Salma Hayek): The second-in-command of the underwater team. AMIABLE, ADVENTUROUS, PLAYFUL.

The Surface Team -

5) George Wallace (played by Clark Gregg): The team’s foreman/supervisor. COMMANDING, ABRASIVE, RATIONAL.

6) Claire Dunn (played by Alyssa Sutherland): A marine biologist who was brought onboard the rig by the company. DEFENSIVE, HEADSTRONG, SENSITIVE.

7) Pamela Mason (played by Annabeth Gish): An investor from Peele & Aster Inc who has come to visit the rig. VAIN, INTOLERANT, AMBITIOUS.

8) Avery Lincoln (played by Sophie Wilde): Pamela’s personal/executive assistant who accompanied her on the trip. STUDIOUS, STOIC, CHARMING.
