That is the setting I now engage. Yesterday I got an idea for a movie, a massively violent movie and I had it before I had the idea for a new game (see previous blog) and even as I had a few ideas that coincide with this I decided to put it here. Feel free to use this, perhaps the new studio in Saudi Arabia (at https://www.arabnews.jp/en/features/article_160242/) can use it for a new protege to make it into something useful. I do have another movie (I actually have 4) but only one has a decently finished script. I am using the word ‘decently’ as I never made script before and I actually hope to sell that one. So the new idea, I put here on my blog and let you guys figure it out. Perhaps someone at the PlayMaker Studios in Qiddiya City can use it. You gotta seed the field somehow.
So here goes. The movie came from my mind after reading the ICE events in America and my mind had to make a few changes to that setting as there was a chance that it resembled Collateral Damage (2002) with Arnold Schwarzenegger and I don’t do remakes of someone else’s ideas (or at least not to my knowledge). So here goes
Begin
The man walked towards the ice cream parlor to get two ice creams. He was on vacation and his daughter always wanted to see Los Angeles and Hollywood, so they ended up walking down Rodeo Drive. And he walked into the ice cream parlor to get two ice creams one strawberry and he wanted a vanilla one. As he walked out there was a commotion. There were ICE officers hooded and masked. His daughter had gone. He looked around and panicked. An Ice officer walked up to him asking for identification. He pulled his Canadian passport and showed it. The man saw his panicked stare he asked what was going on. The band answered that his daughter was missing, she was just here. The man said the illegal alien had been removed for transport. The man shouted “What?” She is my daughter, I just got us some ice creams. The man shrugged, she is gone now.
The man demanded where she was taken, the officer said they would take he to the same place in a few minutes. The man was absolutely fuming but held his peace, it was better that way.
They drove towards a collection centre where people were processed. The agent identified himself in the centre and asked for the girl that was processed earlier. The other agent was nervous. She was dead, killed on route and rerouted to the morgue. The illegal that killed her was under arrest and would be deported to Guatemala. The man exploded in anger, his daughter dead? He went insane with rage and ran out towards the bus stop. He had never been this angry before. As soon as he got back to the hotel he packed up and left. He refused to pay and demanded that the hotel get their funds from the ICE or homeland security.
We then get a setting where the man takes out ICE in Seattle using a sniper rifle with scope and a silencer. He starts killing ice officers indiscriminately and it starts getting the headlines on social media and it starts attracting media attention. They do not know who he is, but everyone wants to know and we get around half a dozen kills. Then we see that Eric gets a phone call from a man he hadn’t heard from in decades. The other man was called Perry and he gave the Eric his condolences. And he gives the man some ideas to get back to Canada and from there get the train to Montreal, from there he could take the Amtrak Adirondack line to New York and in 11 hours, things might cool down a little. He would arrange a weapon for Eric when he got to New York, he needed to get his revenge and Eric agreed.
Two days later we are in New York, looking at the headline Sniper kills another ICE agent and the stage get to be more and more violent, but the killings are precise, they lack emotion, any ICE agents is switched of like a machine, headshot after headshot. And the man was very good at this, his army days were directly in his blood and after he retired from military service he had a family and his wife died in childbirth (optional recall image thought photos).
And still the list comes to a larger setting and Eric has a new target, The chief of ICE and the location was known, it was 26 Federal Plaza New York. Eric was getting ready for the next hit and Perry was assisting him. He had already found the place to look at, it was the office of the Bureau of Vital Statistics and the roof gave him the perfect setting and he already had an escape plan in place. He merely needed to wait. He was on the roof when he got a message, the target would arrive in two hours. He was happy to wait.
And as he waited he saw the amount of police cars at his target had increased dramatically and he looked through his scope and then he spotted a glimmer on another roof. He made himself small and looked, the shimmer was no longer there, but he hadn’t imagined this. He thought for a second, left the rifle behind and left through the escape route, only to walk straight into the arms of four man, two were holding pistols SIG Sauer P226 legion .357 magnums both with silencers. The other two man identified themself as CIA agents. They beckoned him to come with them. He felt all energy escape until the car door opened and his daughter was there, tears of happiness and she flew into his arms. They got into the car but his daughter entered the front seat, it seemed that she was given that directive. The four of them went into the back and the driver drove of towards Penn station. The CIA man spoke, we were looking for Perry for a long time and this was the only option they had. Perry would hear of Eric’s ordeal and come out to help. It was the only option they had. Perry was assisting terrorists all over the planet for money and he had to be stopped and after years this was the only way left to them. Perry had to instigate the contact and psychologists said that he would not pass up the opportunity to cloak himself as a savior. It was their only option.
Eric asked about the other ICE agents. The CIA man said that they were of no consequence, they were an embarrassment to American justice, this riffraff made their own bad and as such they offered their lives for something that actually mattered. Perry was too dangerous and this was the perfect solution. The CIA man continued, whilst we drive, the rifle on the rooftop is cleaned and dropped at Perry’s place. He will take the fall for all of it and Eric and Sally can go home now, they will get to adjust the time on the 90 hour ride from Montreal to Calgary, First class ticket were handed over to Eric.
The CIA man ended the conversation with “Thank you for your assistance. There is no paper trail, there is nothing that points to Eric. Whatever evidence was left was scrubbed and Perry’s evidence was ‘placed’, Enjoy the 100 hours to get back to home and spend it with your daughter. She only knows that you helped us but nothing is said on what you did. You merely looked through old schoolbooks on fellow students. She never needs to know this, let’s leave it at that.
End
And that is how far I got. So should someone at PlayMaker Studios see something in this, have a go at it an spruce it up a little. This took a mere 1 hour of my thoughts and an hour typing all this. After all the BS on AI and all that other jazz, it was nice to actually be creative again and perhaps tomorrow there is some creativity left. But that is tomorrows problem, who knows the AI bubble might burst overnight, weirder things have happened while I was sleeping.
Have a great day, It is almost Monday (in 2 minutes time)
