Ok, this is Shadow's project, but I'll get the ball rolling:
Can best could you describe Shadowrun in 120 pages, creating characters, events, and a way to string them all together in a Screenplay. Under Shadow's watchful eye, I propose we, as a group of volunteer opinion-mongers, attempt to combine our best ideas into a cohesive story that could then become the definitive framework for a Shadowrun Movie. Anyone interested, just post an idea here. Feel free to converse, but if you just thought "This isn't going to work", just scuttle off into the SR4 threads and don't bother posting. UPDATE: Anyone who has an idea that is a good idea, but out of context, please post it to the "Pitch Your Snippet" thread |
