Draft your own Fantasy Movie

NAHSTE

New member
Let's say you got to do a fantasy movie draft, and get to pick different components of a movie to make up your film. You get to choose an opening sequence, first act, dramatic build up, climax, denouement and a closing sequence. After you make your team, you get an imaginary rating, from me. That is until this thread gets derailed with an argument, which is my ultimate goal.

What's the point of this? Well for starters, it's a roundabout way to recycle the "What are your favorite movie scenes?" topic, and for two, it's a great way to imagine how great a movie could be if it only got X right.

For instance, let's say The Departed, one of the most quotable and re-watchable ever, didn't have the heavy-handed rat symbolism in the last shot. It'd easily be a 10/10. That shot undermines the picture, if only a tiny bit. If I'm drafting a Scorcese draft, I am picking a different closing shot, and that's that.

Now that I've explained myself, let's begin. Don't forget to use spoilers if you're gonna drop big ones.


My team: The Martopher Noleseces

OPENING: Reservoir Dogs Harvey Keitel owns in this movie "I got Madonna's big dick coming out of my left ear, and Toby the Jap... I don't know what - comin' out of my right." And the Steve Buscemi rant about not tipping is reminiscent of an internet troll today. Great dialogue and acting in that scene all around.

FIRST ACT: The Departed The character development is essential to this movie's success. The parallel stories of William Costigan Jr. and Colin Sullivan in the first act of this movie lay the groundwork for the rest of the movie. Favorite quote, from Marky Mark's character, Sgt. Dignam: "You're gonna rise fast, like a 12 year old's dick."

BUILD UP: City of God The most gut-wrenching scene in the movie, at the party where everyone gathers to
 
say goodbye to Benny. It ends up being Benny's farewell as he gets murdered on the dance floor.
 
"You just killed the coolest hood in the City of God"


CLIMAX: Children of Men Beautifully choreographed urban warfare scene, about 45 minutes long, with our antagonist running shoeless through dozens of explosions and thousands of bullets. Oh, and it is all shot in one fucking take.

DNM: Oldboy
 
So fucked.


ENDING The Dark Knight Corny, yes, but a goosebump-inducing final shot nonetheless. It's what happens when you mix Batman on a motorcycle, Gary Oldman, and awesome music.

 
James Gordon Jr.: Why's he running, Dad?
Lt. James Gordon: Because we have to chase him.
James Gordon Jr.: He didn't do anything wrong.
Lt. James Gordon: Because he's the hero Gotham deserves, but not the one it needs right now. So we'll hunt him because he can take it. Because he's not our hero. He's a silent guardian, a watchful protector. A dark knight.

honestly though, if that shot of the rat at the very end dropped the movie from a 10 to a 9, then you have OCD or something.
 
You don't think one shot can undermine a movie? Especially the last shot of the whole picture? I think it can.

Im not saying it cant, but we were talking about The Departed, that shot of the rat doesn't deny the movie a 10 rating. Movies fucking awesome.
 
Lemme Try:

My team: The Amalgam Project

OPENING:Way of the Gun The fight scene instigated by Sarah Silverman is priceless.

 
SS: "Hey! Hey you two! Fags! Hey, get away from my boyfriend's car. He'll beat your ass! He'll fuck you! He's not even gay but he'll do it!"

BF: "Hey, shut up a second... She's got a loud mouth but she's right. I'll fuck ya silly and beat ya stupid."


FIRST ACT: Pulp Fiction My favorite movie of all time. I'm a QT fan. He's among my favorite directors. The whole Royale with Cheese discussion, foot massage thing, then "Say What Again?" scene, makes for a stupendous, hilarious second opening (after the diner).

 
"What country you from?!"
"What?"
"What ain't no country I ever heard of. They speak English in what?"
"What?"
"English muthafucka do you speak it?"
"Yes."
"So you understand what I'm sayin'?"
"Yes."
"Now describe what Marcellus Wallace looks like."
...
"He's big... and he's black..."
"Go on!"
"...and he's... tall..."
"Does he look like a bitch?!"
"What?"
*gunshot*
"Does he look like a bitch?!"
"No, no, no."
"Then why you tryna fuck him Brad?"
"I'm not."
"Yes you are. And Marcellus Wallace don't like to be fucked by anybody but Mrs. Wallace."


BUILD UP: The Warriors I haven't seen Ronin (forgive me), but this has got to be one of the greatest chase films of all time. The whole thing is epic. I really love seeing The Warriors battle back from the park to their turf in Coney. It's just really well put together.

COMEDY RELIEF: Monty Python's Holy Grail This movie's so full of unnecessary funny. It's witty and crass all at the same time. From the beginning to the "Camelot" scene to the "Historical Expert" scene through to the end, it's just a comedic masterpiece, in my mind.

 
"What is your name?"
"Sir Lancelot of Camelot."
"What is your quest?"
"To find the Holy Grail."
"What is your favorite color?"
"Blue."

"What is your name?"
"Sir Robin of Camelot."
"What is your quest?"
"To find the Holy Grail."
"What is the capital of Assyria?"
"I don't know that-- AAAAAHHH!!!"

"What is your name?"
"Sir Galahad of Camelot."
"What is your quest?"
"To find the Holy Grail."
"What is your favorite color?"
"Blue. No yello- AAAAAHHH!!!"


CLIMAX: Scarface Yes, it's cliche, but it's still great. Scarface is one of those terrific movies that, unfortunately can't have a sequel.

 
Because EVERYBODY DIES.

"Ju wanna play rough?! HO-KAY! SAY HELLO TO MY LIL FRIEND!!!"


ENDING: The Godfather I was going to use The Departed, but I didn't want to steal that. The way Francis Ford Coppola sees to ending the movie is tragic in its beauty.

 
"Never again ask me about my business."

He cuts the movie off about a page or two before the ending in the book. In the book, Diane Keaton's character talks to Michael's mom about saying the prayers required for his redemption and salvation in spite of his business dealings. She goes to the church and begins the ritual that Carmela started, completing the circle as Michael becomes don and she becomes his first lady, so to speak.

In fact, there's a lot of differences between the movie and the book, like the importance of Johnny Fontane or Lucy Mancini.

---

Fantasy cast.
Leading Man - Leonardo DiCaprio or Matt Damon. For the record, am I the only one who thinks those two and Mark Wahlberg have at least a passing resemblance?

Leading Lady - Halle Berry. It won't look a tad realistic, but it's my fantasy movie dammit.

Lead supporting man - Samuel L. Jackson. Because he will completely dominate from wherever he is in the film.

Lead supporting lady - Gabrielle Union. Figured I'd plug-in another good looking black lady.

Next supporting man - Seth Rogan. Because I know he could do it. lol

Next supporting lady - Malin Akerman. Because I liked how she looked in Watchmen. And her acting wasn't terrible.

Comic Relief Guy - Will Ferrell. or Steve Carrell.

Comic Relief Lady - Sarah Silverman. Just because.

Singer cameo - Go with Alicia Keys. Cause I like her voice and I haven't actually seen her in anything.

OPENING: Casino Royale The opening chase scene was fucking awesome with the black ninja and Bond establishing himself as a badass from the getgo.

FIRST ACT: The Hurt Locker The opening scenes of The Hurt Locker opened up the book to the movie, making you realize anything can happen.

BUILD UP: Inglourious Basterds This kinda counts as two, but they cant be separated. The first scene is the bar scene where they try and fool the German soldier into thinking they are German soldiers as well, tense as fuck and literally took me by surprise. The second part is when the blonde woman is eating cream with Christopher Waltz and your sitting there watching the horror in her eyes and wondering if he knows who she is. Two of the most suspense building scenes in film.

 
Say goodbye to your Nazi Balls


COMEDY RELIEF: Observe and Report The end scene with the flasher.

CLIMAX: Kick Ass The unmasking of Kick Ass and Big Daddy was epic with the musical score and hit girl just going to work.

 
Kryponite MY CHILD!!!


ENDING: Toy Story 3 The entire ending was so emotional.

 
Watching Andy play with his toys one last time and seeing the sendoff with Woody was depressing of fuck.

---

Fantasy cast.
Leading Man - Since Decaprio was picked, ima say Daniel Craig. Guy has been a beast in the business ever since he came onto the scene.

Leading Lady - Scarlett J can act and looks hot, all the qualities needed.

Lead supporting man - Aaron Eckheart. The guy can sit in front of a screen for 90 minutes and talk yet still be more entertaining then most movies.

Lead supporting lady - Mélanie Laurent. After her performance in IB, she should become a superstar.

Next supporting man - Going unknown here but Toby Kebbell because he was fucking great in RocknRolla

Next supporting lady - Cate Blanchett(sp?)

Comic Relief Guy - Zach Galifianakis

Comic Relief Lady - Tina Fey.

Singer cameo - Justin Timberlake. Cause hes funny as hell.

Director: Nolan or David Fincher. Take your pick.

Buzz, you had some picks I'd forgotten about. Kick Ass was epic, as was Inglourious... Though I do prefer Pulp Fiction, if only barely.

How many of you clowns googled denouement? How many can pronounce it?

id imagine the few that actually responded to the topic had no trouble with this.


I'll admit i'd never heard the term until college. YAY public school system!
 
Opening-Up the whole black and white sequence is touching

First Act-The Great Escape Getting to know all of the characters and watching them efficiently build the tunnel is masterful

Build Up-Apocalypse Now
 
Willard becomes increasingly interested in Kurtz and discovers the military sent another captain a few months prior who is now missing, and phillips dies and the whole crew is generally shaken and falling apart


Climax-Lord of the Rings: Return of the King
 
Sam and Frodo's perilous journey comes to an end as Frodo falls prey to the Ring inside Mount Doom and has that final showdown with Gollum


Ending-Fight Club
 
The ending sequence just watching the buildings explode beside marla is film at its best "You met me at a very strange time in my life."

CLIMAX: In Bruges* .
"You've got to stick to your principles."
 

I wish I could find this scene. The entire ending is one big climax. From the awkward mexican stand-off in the hotel room to the quote above, this part of the movie is fucking fantastic.


DNM: I feel like not many movies use denouements (it's usually climax, end, credits, IMO), so SKIP until I can figure out a good one.


ENDING: Fight Club
"You met me at a very strange time in my life."

*I cheated. The entire ending is one big climax.
