Woot – Menace here, back one again on the blog-sphere. I was going to force Andy off his lazy arse and back onto this thing, but then I realised how dull and boring it would be for everyone. So instead, I want to preview my new movie instead.
Well I say, movie. Its nothing A-list or anything. In fact it makes B-movies looked like Hollywood Blockbusters in budget terms. But myself and Jackle were inspired by the latest release of Godzilla, we had to go and make our own monster movie. So we quickly mocked up a scale model city to rampage in, found some kind of monster-esque costume, and started to record using the video recorder we have laying around the place.
Our scene opens on what seems to be a quiet looking street, mainly because we couldn’t get any models to stand in for pedestrians. We scroll along passing many standardised style shops you’d see in any kind of city. Eventually though we come across a classic car event, showing off many vintage automobiles. We zoom into the pride of the show, a genuine 1910 Model T, paying extra close attention to the manufactures logo (because product placement is fun for cash). After lingering on it for a moment, focusing on the absolute beauty of this historic machine… it gets flattened under I gigantic foot.
Switch to a long shot of the gigantic lizard/dragon thing roaring as loud as it can. That’s right kiddies, we’re diving straight into the action because really, who can be bothered with plot these days?
We watch the Monster as it stomps its way through the city, smashing everything it finds in its path. Hello bank, goodbye bank. Hello drycleaners, goodbye drycleaners. Hello super secret spying NSA operations base masquerading as an internet service provider, goodbye super secret spying NSA operations base masquerading as an internet service provider.
While civil liberties might cheer at the Monster destroying part of the NSA, don’t think the Monster is good at heart. Check out that Non-Profit Organisation made for helping all the poor and starving/dying West African kiddies. Yup, you guessed it. Splat goes the charity organisation. That’s just how cruel and evil this Monster actually is.
It smashes, it crashes, it roars so loudly buildings literally fall over (although that’s mainly due to the really thin cardboard we made all the buildings out of). The Monster is literally on a rampage through this City with no name (because who cares about where it’s set, that’s just all boring plot details.) Suddenly though, the Monster is stopped in its tracks by another gigantic figure, towering above the streets of the City. Cloaking in black robes, it points a long scythe towards our tyrannical Monster and grins a bony grin. Yes, the Reaper himself has shown up to this little session of carnage… and he likes what he sees.
Swinging his scythe and knocking over a building himself, the Reaper joins the carnage and it soon becomes a competition between the Monster and the Reaper at just who can destroy the most. Who will win this ultimate battle of destruction?
But wait! (Insert dramatic exclamation here.) Suddenly the people start fighting back as missiles and RPG’s suddenly start flying and striking both the Monster and the Reaper dead on, causing the two beings of destruction to reel. But who is it that is brave enough to stand up to these enormous beings of death? Why, it’s the charitable humanitarians, who have survived the destruction of their Non-Profit organisation building and are now charging into the battle on multiple Classic Cars. How the aid workers got their hands on all that explosive weaponry is either a cynical view of how evil organisations can masquerade as altruistic ones or is a social comment on the ridiculousness of common concepts in typical action movies… I haven’t quite decided yet.
With Non-Profit Aid workers (wilding rocket launchers) riding around in multiple Mustangs, Thunderbirds, Falcons, Torinos, Galaxies and the odd Maverick thrown in for good measure, this combination is a force to be reckoned with. Will they over come the destructive might of the Reaper and the Monster, or will the ultimate might of the titanic terrors of annihilation?
Well you’ll just have to find out in the full version…
When we finish it, of course… still a fair bit of editing to do you know.
