A idea some people came to me and asked for help with a script and character development their movie idea consisted of a bounty hunter who has a friend who betrays him in the end here’s my twist on the story and what I have so far check out the link for part of the script I am still currently working on it .

[flaneurdumal]

“my life as a robot dog” 📺✍️ 🤖 🐕 . . #TVConcept #scriptidea #showbible #Winterswick @winterswick.college . . Marc Alpert, with Ph.Ds in Information & Computer Science and Software Engineering headed up the Robotics & AI Lab at Hudson University. Flush with public & private funds, the lab spread throughout the Westchester countryside taking over old IBM facilities. Thomas (Finn) Hansen, MSEE and Ph.D. in IT was part of a ragtag department of computer engineers at Winterswick College specializing in the niche of animatronics. Students were known to install moving ersatz human & animal parts every so often freaking people out as the tech got more realistic. The program was OK in placing its students, but it was seen as lesser tier and got little respect. . . The annual Northeast robotics competition was hosted by Hudson & Dr. Alpert was showcasing his robot dogs that he started working on when he was at MIT. Finn’s undergrad & grad students wanted to show up Alpert, who was mostly benign but an egoist. . . Taking a page out of Avengers: Civil War & the Empire Strikes Back (Battle of Hoth), Finn’s students had a plan to use drones w/fishing line to trip up the formidable robot dogs. They weren’t prepared for the dogs’ AI responding adaptively, but luckily the team had a few tricks up their collective sleeves. 🍌 . .

“bite your teeth into the ass of life and drag it to you!” . 📺✍️🥔🍅🌶🍋🥑🍓🥗🥖🍳🍪🍰👩🏻‍🍳👨🏻‍🍳 . . #TVConcept #scriptidea #showbible #Winterwick @winterwick.college . This ep is an homage to Big Night (1996) & to food. Maybe I can get @andrewcotto to write the script or develop the characters. The film Big Night was shot in #KeyportNJ on the #JerseyShore. . . The Arcuri brothers were bankrupt after their small boutique Irestaurant on the Jersey Shore failed. They were from Calabria, coming to NJ in 2000 after being perplexed, repulsed, & fascinated with the early Sopranos. One brother was a culinary genius, while the other handled the business side…and was very protective of his brother. The President of the College loved their restaurant & was frustrated with the contract with #Sodexo. So, the President decided to give the Arcuris the foodservice contract, which was a bit of a leap of faith. . Recent reports came out that student meals at @wellesleycollege averaged out to $12 with a mandatory dining plan. While upscale and full of choices, the President thought the Arcuris could do better. . The College had several cafés, a pub, and an automat throughout its various buildings. The offerings were mediocre & the students were clamoring for Starbucks that would take their meal plans & a revamping of the dining hall that served up vats of institutional food. Landing the contract was easy compared to executing on a scale they weren’t prepared for. They felt over their heads. The brothers started to bicker… . “Look. I’m not going to argue about this. We need to come up with menus under budget, perfect them, & be ready by September.” . “What the f*ck is this? What is this vee-gan? What is this gluten free? These kids. I’ll tell you what they need with their fast foodstuffs & bad complexions. They need the glutton free diet.” .

“road trip” 📺✍️🍁🍂🚗🤷‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️ . . #TVConcept #scriptidea #showbible #Winterswick @winterswick.college . Based on an article on someone’s BFF broke up w/them by @jenglantz I was reading in Nov. Travel can test relationships & maybe are a good proxy for compatibility. Interests, schedule, lifestyle, finances, and energy levels all need to be in synch, whether it’s your bae or BFF. It can also trigger blowups that break relationships apart. This ep examines a GenZ friend breakup. . . Samantha & Taylor both brew up in NYC, but their parents (in their blended family glory) moved to New England to try their hands at second careers. Both debated staying in the city for Thanksgiving, but opted to have a ‘girls road trip’ to Lancaster, NH. . . While there were the usual tensions of two different personalities in close proximity for a day, around Northampton, things started to get tense. The two were close freshman year, but drifted apart. The road trip started like a reunion with catching up & sharing stories. There were no disagreements or arguments, but a series of tacit disapprovals & eyerolls. Sam was annoyed at Taylor needing to fill the silence and in a panic blurted out: . . “I…I just don’t want to be friends w/you. I don’t have a reason & I don’t owe you an explanation.” . “Whoa, where did that come from? If that’s how you feel, fine.” . . Both knew the other well enough to know this wasn’t a spat. Both had trouble “faking” being close to people they didn’t feel close to. . . “I think we should go back separately.” . “Fine.” . . Sam & Taylor’s respective moms were more distressed with this BFF “break up” than they were. It became clear that both feel more connection w/those they interact with online, as both dealt w/the breakup over Thanksgiving weekend amid the backdrop of a wintry New England snowstorm. Taylor never gets any closure & her friends seek to keep her busy, rather than discuss Sam. Sam is revealed to be someone w/a solidified “code” that’s solidifying in brusque ways as she ventures into adulting. . .

“Dundonald Brightside” 📺✍️🖤🔒🖤 . . #TVConcept #scriptidea #showbible #Winterwick @winterwick.college . . This ep is a challenge as its about the sad genesis of self emasculation. This is based on someone I barely know, but haven’t seen in about a decade…a tragic codependent figure who gives up all agency in order to not be alone. The narcissism stems from perceived failures & inadequacies. It would be interesting for #ScottMechlowicz to play Don & Matt Damon to reprise cuckolding his character (Eurotrip). . Don (Dundonald) was a cog in the College’s finance dept, perfectly content doing mundane analyses. There were limited opps & the more ambitious would move on after getting experience. While Don wasn’t stupid, his nickname was Dunce to the younger staff. . There was nothing memorable about Don. One would be hard pressed to recall anything about him, other than a dad joke or the occasional off-color remark. . . Don’s first marriage disintegrated abruptly. His second wife was the result of a rebound relationship borne out of desperation...known chiefly for her inappropriate attire & baking strange gluten free olive oil cakes. Don’s choices made it clear he sought out a specific personality type: domineering w/a bit of a mean streak, resembling his paternal grandmother. He no longer had friends from his past & he rarely interacted w/his kids, siblings, or parents. His social life was on lockdown. . As cracks in Don’s 2nd marriage appeared, he would get belittled about how his first wife cuckolded him by banging his buddies on his basketball team in Yorktown, as well as having an affair w/a respected figure in their church. Not one of his friends bothered to tell him. It’s easy to shrug off the plight of the living embodiment of a styrofoam rice cake. . “Listen, Donny. You’ll tow the line like you always do. W/out me, you’d go back to being the sniveling little boy I found, heartbroken & jerking off to some sunburned slag who you thought loved you.” . .

Wavelength

You know that feeling when you have a completely different wavelength with people? And that moment when you just try to connect and hope that they see your efforts. When you don't really expect that person, or those people to like you back? And all you want is some kind of..approval...some kind of affirmation. And that what you're doing is at least, appreciated.

“the cake is a lie” . 📺✍️🌿🍰 . . #TVConcept #scriptidea #showbible #Winterswick @winterswick.college . . This episode focuses on Autumn, a sustainable fashion studies major who grew up in Darien & later Greenwich, CT. . . The College had fall homecoming coincide w/the NY Fall Regatta & a “friends & family” weekend. While Autumn appreciated her mom coming down to visit from Greenwich, CT, she also spent the long weekend avoiding her. Her mom, Aimee, was vain, phony, & let everyone know she was vegan. Autumn was always annoyed at how her mom needed to be the center of attention & needed to be the “cool mom.” Autumn wasn’t averse to veganism, but felt her mom used it to control others. . This episode highlights how Autumn & her friends ditch her mom (and milquetoast stepdad), but in ways so she doesn’t feel bad. Autumn made sure her mom got a room at an eco-friendly hotel in Williamsburg & scheduled things so there would be plenty of near-misses, but w/contingencies that would occupy her mom & doltish follower stepdad like a cross distracted by shiny things. . . The weekend starts with Aimee showing up to her room with a vegan olive oil cake that tastes horrible. It goes on Autumn’s Finstagram w/a #thecakeisalie hashtag & caption, which turns into the slogan for the weekend. It ends with Aimee unexpectedly showing up at a late night karaoke party with Autumn singing bastardized lyrics to Kid Creole & the Coconuts’ “Endicott”: “Vegan mom frowns when you eat milk or meat Vegan mom judges everything you eat Vegan mom's dress is too see through Vegan mom shouldn’t get any more tattoos Vegan mom think she’s the eco queen Vegan mom doesn’t want you to think she’s mean Vegan mom bakes bad olive oil cake Vegan mom’s gets pouty when she’s irate Why can't you be like Vegan mom? Cause I'm free Free of made-to-order liabilities Thank God I'm free Cos it's hard enough for me To take care of me oh-oh” . .

“parade” . 📺✍️🎉🍁🍂🦃 . . #TVConcept #scriptidea #showbible #Winterwick @winterwick.college . “Thanksgiving at the College marked that tense time before finals & the Holidays. The College was always closed on Wednesdays, so a tradition was started in the 80s to have an irreverent holiday themed parade on w52nd the day before the Macy’s Thanksgiving parade. It was meant as a diversion for students too busy or broke to head home for Thanksgiving & was modeled after the Pasadena Doo Dah Parade. . . The parade had small floats & sometimes inflated helium balloons that often looked like X-rated Jeff Koons art. A recurring bit was the UES Nanny & Dogwalker Precision Marching Squad “doing routines & bringing POC and the underemployed to the Upper East Side since 2009.” The nannies always had triplet strollers and there was a minimum of 5 dogs per walker. . . The College’s “marching band” was never officially recognized as such. They never wore uniforms (the closest was when they dressed up like the guitar guy from Mad Max Fury Road) & sounded more like subway buskers than drum and bugle or show bands. They always closed out the parade. . . Over the years, the parade evolved to be irreverent but veered away from pejorative depictions. One group tried to satirize the Dutch roots of the College w/a tongue-in-cheek depiction of Sinterklaas & Zwarte Piet. That was denied despite the valid cultural criticism. One feature that was cancelled was a set of floats depicting all of the 5 boroughs. The straw that broke the camel’s back was the Staten Island float w/a student reprising Olivia Luccardi’s ranty depiction of a SI girl on HBO’s Girls, along with the Brooklyn float featuring the Real Housewives off Park Slope featuring mother-daughter Instagrammers (Minstagrammers) doing all sorts of inappropriate activities while throwing bags of kale chips at the crowd.” .

“roamcoming” 📺✍️🏈🌫☔️ . . #TVConcept #scriptidea #showbible #Winterwick . . @winterwick.college went coed in 1970, but all of the attention went to the womens’ teams featured in other eps. This flashback ep chronicles the hapless NCAA Div III 🏈 team, where students played for fun. No scholarships, crappy coaches, & a makeshift “field” on the old Pier 40. . . Michael was an alum (class of ’84) who came back to teach in the Architecture Dept & his claim to fame was stadium design. He worked for a firm in NYC, but was often at the Dubai & Singapore offices. He was part of the baseball stadium renaissance that occurred after Camden Yards opened in 1992 & his firm tried in vain to get a downtown Philly park built on the Delaware at Spring Garden. . . He just finished a glossy book on stadiums & was doing book talks in small bookstores like @spoonbillbooks in #williamsburg . After one of these, he recounted playing football at the College at a dilapidated “field” during a bizarre season when the team started winless at 0-2-3. . . “I was on one of the last teams fielded. I was one of the few players who could kick, so I became a starter. Since we didn’t have a real field, there were only 4 home games. Homecoming was after a month of road games & was dubbed roamcoming. Our last home game was in October when we were still winless at 0-2-3, but now we were contending for the conference title. Football was a curiosity at the College & we just had fun w/a lot of convoluted trick plays. The game was played on a miserably cold & rainy afternoon vs St. Christopher. I was en route to being the goat, def not GOAT, after missing 3 field goals. Time was running out & I had an easy 25 yard att. Players were sliding on the cheap Astroturf full of seams and bumps. I slipped at little, but got it through the uprights…barely. We won 9-8 & were the conf champs w/ a 5-2-3 after beating arch rival #HudsonCollege. No playoffs/parades for us. Just Thanksgiving & finals. We all just went our separate ways after that.” . .

“evenfall” 📺✍️👺🌒 . . #TVConcept #scriptidea #showbible #Winterwick @winterwick.college . . This ep explores the “masks” we use & stems from seeing the premiere of @hbo.watchmen. In IT/IS circles, web anonymity is neither good not bad, as that lies in in the user & usage of technologies. I’ve also been thinking about gender, discourse, & contagion. This has a bit of @blackmirror.netflix in it. . . . The College had an internal communication system based on a Slack-like Intranet (web & mobile), intending on closing off a lot of external email communications. This allowed for email, texting, video conferencing, a “structured talk” microblog, etc., but it allowed for the creation of up to 5 aliases. The idea was to allow students who felt marginalized or unheard to create identities to have voice without fear of reprisal. The TOS warned everyone that while the system allowed the creation of anonymous accounts, the should be no expectation of total privacy & anonymity. Nobody read the TOS. . . The Intranet was called Evenfall, an archaic term for twilight or dusk. It was used in typical ways that students communicate: sharing memes, downloaded Tic Tocs, music, test answers, mildly racy content, etc. Things were more or less fine until a few students started to blow up as influencers, but with controversial IG personas. The haters & the sycophants squared off, but everyone had an opinion. Things started to spiral out of control. The IT director was fit to be tied. She sent out an email over the weekend copying the TOS & stating (threatening) anyone found in violation will have all their posted content switched to their real names. “No aliases for you.” A flurry of panicked messages flooded the help desk account w/pleas of mercy from students, along with thin excuses for behaving badly. The President & IT Director had a facepalm moment 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♂️ when a report generated found a great deal of bullying content was from a select few faculty & staff. The following Monday was awkward with a lot of avoiding eye contact. . .

“family tree” 📺✍️👨‍👧? . . #TVConcept #scriptidea #showbible #Winterwick. . Taylor never thought about her biological dad. Maybe it was because she was so much like her mom that it seemed as if any of her father’s genetic material never had a shot, as if it were scared away. . Her stepdad (Michael) died suddenly on a hike near Breckenridge. It was a freak accident, where a friend lost their footing and sent him down a steep ravine where he hit his head. Michael treated Taylor like his own daughter & she never gave her biological dad any thought…until Michael died. . What started as a curiosity turned into a bit of an obsession. Her mom knew nothing of what happened to her dad. It didn’t take much sleuthing to find him given genealogical & genomic databases. He was living in the West Village in a dingy apartment in a building that was part of an inheritance. . Taylor, a photography MFA, took to spying on her dad & taking photos of him. She found out he was overweight, reclusive, and constantly had bluetooth headsets on. He hadn’t had a regular job since 2007 or so when he started getting inheritances & became a full time ne’er do well. He frequented a bodega & a bakery for coffee w/Stevia & soy. They shared a love of the same junk foods. She asked the bakery owner about him: . . “Oh, that guy. Strange man. Says many odd things. He sniffs the air & makes odd comments to the women. Very particular about his coffee. I yell at him when he buys too much that is bad for him. I am not a murderer! . Girlie. Ha ha! You stir coffee just like him. Three swirls. Two taps. Cedar sticks at angle on the napkin.” . . Taylor felt she needed to stay away, believing she needed to maintain her boundaries. She used the photos of her dad for an exhibit (preserving his anonymity to a certain point), but never returned to her his street. . .

“the meme war did not take place” 📺✍️⚔️📣📹 Building on Jean #Baudrillard’s The Gulf War Did Not Take Place, this highlights GenZ’s fluency in media savvy. It’s also inspired by The Dreamers (2003) & the animated short Beauty Is in the Street (2016). #TVConcept #scriptidea #showbible #Winterwick. . . Simone wasn’t looking forward to her humanities course, but it proved to be quite the foil to Professor Lorne’s Journalistic Writing class. The latter was a crash course in a neoliberal fauxconomics worldview stuck in 1989, while the history & philosophy of the 20c course was brought to life by a recent Columbia grad (Professor Allie) who broke down the complexities in pop & Internet culture terms. . . Simone, as a GenZer, became interested in Frantz Fanon after seeing a recent film depicting some of his views as controversial & with the encouragement of Professor Allie. . “Fanon shouldn’t be controversial. Neither should punching Nazis. Old Professor Lorne doesn’t get it, but he’s a free speech grifter. Resistance isn’t a call for violence, but is an intolerance, yes, INtolerance of oppression. I’ll leave such tolerance for the centrists.” . Some of Simone’s friends were concerned about this newfound rebellious streak. Concerned that she would be going from pink pussy hats to Antifa. Concerned that she was thinking that #HellsKitchen 2020 was the 5th Arrondissement in 1968. A fringe organization of clean-cut instigators would give her a target for her white hot rage. .
