You may be right!! All I would have to do is follow the same formula that keeps the sheep trotting into the theater time and time again.
1. Natural disaster that threatens our very existence as a species.
2. Thinly developed character, usually a scientist, geologist, or person of authority
3. Lame back story about how the workaholic main character (typically a “Hollywood A-Lister”) neglects his or her family life to devote to the
salvation of mankind, only to realize that the threat that they face make them realize how much their family means to them.
4. BOOM amazing CGI, stuff blows up. National monuments and at least one of the 7 wonders of the world is destroyed to illustrate the incredible
danger we all face.
5. Main knucklehead gets separated from his or her family and spends the entire film trying to get back to those who only now really matter to
them.
6. Main knucklehead has some brilliant idea to save mankind or at least what is left of us.
7. The reunion of the thinly developed main character and his or her family after they went through CGI hell to get back to one another.
8. Make sure you weave your own political ideology throughout the story for the final “AHH HAA” moment.
9. Everyone realizes how much they need to change their ways in order to sustain this precious life we have as consumers and how we need to buy more
crap we don’t need from the very companies spoon feeding you this garbage.
How's that? Sound like a film you'd like to see? You did say I could probably write a better one. In my opinion I think I just did.
Roll credits...........
