Here's my idea for a movie. I know I’ve been open with this concept and it’s received mixed reviews. But this may or may not be the opening line of my movie (see title). The line would be spoken by a nervous looking government agent in a suit with the earpiece to a general of sorts, a larger gentleman with a Jay Lenoesque chin and so many medals and credentials that you wonder what the hell he did to derserve it.
Anyway. The title line is spoken, and I've written one of two reactions for the general character.
- Slams fist onto table, exclaims "Dammit!"
- Turns dramatically toward camera, camera slowly pans forward for a closeup. Looking terrified the general says in a tone above a whisper, "Noooo."
Cut to a scene of me driving a convertible, top down, in the desert, with a suitcase full of cash and a mustache. Laughing. Hot babe optional.
(If you're reading Mila, the offer is on the table. The part is yours. Call me. No seriously. Call me.)
The movie title would probably be called "Going Rogue" or maybe just "Rogue." I don't have the budget to cast Sean Connery as the general guy. Who am I kidding? I don't have the budget for anything. I'm not entirely convinced he's up to the task anyway. He's busy with other things. (Notice how Connery at one point says Rogue?! Entirely coincidental!)
Many contemporary films begin in the middle of the action, leaving the viewer to piece together on the run. This makes for more of an interesting plot development as the viewer is forced to pay careful attention to the details. Unfortunately, that's all I got for a story, just the middle. And me, starring opposite Sean Connery and maybe Mila Kunis if she's willing to drop the restraining order.
Why me? It's the name clearly. Axelsen=badass. That opening line (see title) just sounds awesome. Totally reeks of awesomeness. We'll work out the details later.
C'mon, you wouldn't pay 8 bucks to see that?
