He/she looks just like Ryan Connor in Coronation Street (UK Soap)

But as Ocie in Petaluma, California witnessed, that might not be enough of a deterrent.

In that case, you could try to dial up the crazy a little more, like Nicole in Florida…

Or you just [...]

Apropos of “declassé”, I propose “Class-E Productions” as the name of our production company. This tickles memory storage areas related to both pharmaceuticals and felonies. We’re pretty much on Front Street about drugs taken by the creative staff and recommended for the viewing audience. We can spin the felony wheel a couple of ways. First, it may be feasible to hire only actors (and crew) who have been arrested for Class-E felonies. Also, we can say we use low-level technical cheats/workarounds in the making of this smash, but not give out any details. Speaking of Avatar and technical cheats, we may be able to get great buzz by shooting on plain old film but claiming to have spent so much on CGA effects that we have come up with an “indistinguishable from real life”, cyber-photorealistic movie. Sean’s a finance guy, so he probably wouldn’t be able to tell the difference, and even if he figured it out, he’d be reluctant to go public, if only because it would be embarrassing and financially painful.

4-D Vision, it’s the Coming Thing !
(Shades of Russ Meyer…oh, wait, that was 44-DD Vision.)
Drugs would seem to be a natural for this, but we might need to go with a huge batch of a one-off designer compound. Pretty sure yage and ayahuasca mixtures are illegal anywhere there are enough people for a movie theater to make financial sense. Salvia divinorum is still legal many places, but it is limited to a high time of about 30 minutes like the DMT experience it mimics. We don’t want to have a 90 minute feature with 2 smoke-break intermissions…well, I wouldn’t mind it much, but a theater operator’d go nuts with the logistics. I’ll check in with my local curandero about a longer-acting substance. With the shape the economy’s in, we might be able to get some unemployable Chemistry PhD. candidate to cook us up a novel molecule on spec, as long as we promised him/her an exclusive relationship once the movie is ready for release. I know Sean’s not worried about being linked to a pervasive drug thing (his life’s pretty much an open book there, or should I say an open Rx pad), but even though he can afford to bankroll an operation that would have put Hunter Thompson under the table crying “Uncle” in a dozen languages, the majority of them from right here on Earth, I say we keep the costs as low as reasonably possible and pocket the savings. But I’m eminently flexible on this, as channeling Uncle Duke on a nearly unlimited budget would be something to tell the mutated grandkids about while we’re sitting around a campfire or a half-full clear vinyl 55 gallon drum of radium…someday.

I think we’re good to go (shopping), except we do have to wait for Sean to email us his Paypal handle and password…or cash.

There could be several reasons for this:
a) teach girls to go after completely unattainable men
b) teach girls to go after men that won’t be running rampant with testosterone and are less likely to pressure them into sex
c) tell girls it’s ok to fawn after men that are rich but have absolutely no talent of which to speak

After Jimmy did Avatar, the money game changed. $10 is now shorthand for ten billion. It makes sense.

The easy part of our task will be: banging out the screenplay, scouting exotic locales, and banging out the cast.

But, seeing how Sean is going to want to make a big, bold splash with his first foray into film producing, I think we should push ourselves a bit harder than we would if he was, say, just another putz with a big nose and a fat wallet.

3-D? Don’t make me laugh. Yesterday’s news.

It’s time for 4-D!

“All for one! One 4-D!”

The beauty of being the first to shoot a feature in 4-D is that we will not only be fully embracing and inserting ourselves into the future — but the past and present, as well.

This will likely necessitate the ingestion of massive quantities of drugs.

Do either of you have a prob….

I didn’t think so.

Buy as much as you think you’ll need. You both know who to bill.
