You're an aspiring movie director/writer in an elevator with a major studio executive. Pitch your flick. Examples: --- 3D animated kids movie.

(pitched by Kevin Smith) Movie: "Nieeeenn eleven" Oscar bait drama: "A polar bear must reconcile his privilege and racism against the Grizzley bear."

A young man (@Jontro), dedicating his entire life to the faps, has his world turned upside down when a movement called "no fap" is spreading throughout the world. Motivated to find the origins of this evil movement, the young man finally attends the TED talk of the founder of "no fap" and tries to convince him that faps are a sin Jesus died for and that his sacrifice would be in vain if people stopped fapping. In a dramatic twist, the founder of no fap opens up about his son dying during a Pornhub marathon, leading Jontro to question his entire life and becoming a monk in a remote Chinese mountain temple. 10 years later, while a now humbled Kung-Fu master Jontro is asking for temple donations in a Beijing electronics store, the store TVs broadcast a very much alive son of the "no fap" founder in a documentary, revealing him to be the head of a Karate dojo for the spoiled kids of LA. Rain and thunder set in, a shocked and devastated Jontro, realizing he abandoned his ways of faps due to a lie, trashes the TV store and wakes up in a backstreet. Fueled by revenge, Jontro sets out on a two year journey back to the USA. Culminating in an epic showdown in the city of Los Angeles, a now vagabond-looking Jontro with long hair and a full hobo beard anonymously enters the local martial arts tournament, taking out the "no fap dojo" students one by one. It's time for the final match, a blood-soaked Jontro, drenched in the tears and blood his enemies, facing the son of Mr. No Fap. After initially being beaten for 5 minutes straight and looking like a bloody pulp, Jontro reminisces about his childhood in Houston and the Clutch City days (a flashback showing a young @tinman teaching Jontro about the ways of Clutch City, drilling Hakeem moves til Jontro passes out under the street lights at midnight). Combining the ancient arts of the Crane Kick and Dream Shake, Jontro unleashes a 900° spinning roundhouse kick to knockout his opponent and steal his girlfriend. Just before the credits roll, we see Mr. No Fap entering the stage, calling Jontro out and announcing a Martial Arts World Championship where the winner gets to face Mr. No Fap. The credits start to roll, as this is only the first part of a trilogy and we need to make money during these Corona times. ............... You didn't mention where the elevator pitch would take place, so in order to be able to do this ridiculously long pitch, mine took place at Burj Khalifa.
A long running joke in my band (The Serfs) is we're the misfits in an 80's movie while another band are the popular kids. The bass player came up with a movie plot loosely based on "Hotdog, the Movie" for us. It starts with origin stories of each of the band members. My origin story starts in Houston at the "Rockets Dojo" which would just be a badly photoshopped Toyota Center. I was expelled by the elderly grand master and forced Kaine from "Kung Fu" style to wander the waste of Minnesota.
it's a long elevator ride, like burj khalifa long. tho I'd doubt there is any biopic that would have jontro stop fapping. my biopic is rated x
"Metal Wolf Chaos: The Movie" Go look it up; it's already perfect. And on top of that, it has a giant military helicopter called the Olajuwon in the Houston mission. (I'm not kidding.)
"During a basketball game, a black man is mercilessly beaten while two white men, their boss, and the media look the other way. A motley crew of rebels calling themselves 'the 99ers' decide that enough is enough, and that it's time for justice to be served. In '0-for-27'."
Heh, this topic reminds me of how Will Smith was originally supposed to be Neo in the matrix. Watch the clip from WIll Smith if you haven't previously, it's hilarious.
