Alright.hit me. What do you got
We give you…Boats
I love it.what’s the pitch?
They’s boats that talk.
Hmmm.You’re adorable.isn’t she adorable?
She is sir.
now we don’t have a story yet,but the poster is testing through the roof.
Well it look like we have another winner on our hands.okey,let’s go aroud the table.
I went to break this before my tee off at noon.who’s our bad guy?
Do boats even have enemies?
Barnacles ? icebergs?
Other boats?
Water
Water.that’s good.yes.. they can’t get away from water.
Unless they’re on land.
Boats on land that want to be in the water.
Like a dry dock.
Exactly.there could be a social divide.
No no no no.too deep.no,let’s keep it broad.
Seaweed!
What’s about it?
I’m not sure yet.
Will there be people in the boats?
Too suggestive.What else?
How about a race?
Boat… race.
I like that. Yes! And all the boats will have sponsors like they do in narcar!
Two words: product placement.
Obviously.that’s why l said it.
This thing is gonna make so much money.
Boatloads.
I’ll tell you what… when we make a hunded million opening weekend,
I’m gonna buy all you sons of bitches boats!
Except for you Johnson.
I know I’m new here,but aren’t we getting a little ahead of ourselves?
What do you mean?
Yeah.what are you talking about?This is gold.
Maybe.i just think we should talk about the characters before we get into product placement.Don’t you think?
Should’t we come up with a good story first?
Alright,you want a story?
I’ll give you a story.We start on a cute little sailboat,
And guess what his name is?
Franklin…Bernie…Christian.
Jib.
Jib want to compete in the big race,but all the other boats tell him he can’t do it
Because they’re speedboats!
With sponsors.
But..he does it anyway.
Exactly.
And during the race he grts in trouble,
So his father sails in to save him but he gets hit by one of the speedboats and sinks.
Jib sees the whole thing.it’s tragic.
Heartbeaking.
And then what?
Then he sail off.vows never to race again..until one day..
…he does.
And?
He wins.
How?
Courage . (Simultaneous w/Redhend)
Hot damn! i love it!okey,let’s get this gold mine on paper and call it a day.
Hold on.wait a minute.he literally just described the plot for the lion king
All he did was switch out the lions with boats.You guys see that..right?
The lion what?
