Humpty Dumpty- but this time there'll be a "surprise twist to the ending"!

It will be dark with Tim Burton directing!

With Johnny Depp as Humpty!

And an all star cast as "all the kings men"!

And it's such a stupid fucking concept, it may be actually be a $100 Million budget film and be profitable!

How about a new spin on the classic Dracula? I'm thinking maybe a 100 year old vampire that is still in high school and falls in love with a 16 year old girl. Instead of bursting into flames when exposed to the sun, he just sparkles in the light.

I think a lot of homely teenage girls and lonely housewives will like this story.

The Odyssey...but maybe set in space this time, with a one-eyed computer. Or, maybe set during the Great Depression with sirens being some gals bathing on the rocks of a river.

Why don't film-makers ever think of these things?
