Seriously, it'll be fun. We'll show up each day and shoot a bunch of random unscripted scenes that have nothing to do with each other, edit them together, pretend there's a cohesive, coherent message even though the film was made with absolutely no artistic vision in mind, and deride critics who "don't get it" as "sightless".
Oh yeah, there need to be random segue shots that have nothing to do with the main movie. For example, how about a recurring shot of a jar filled with flies sitting on a warm, sunny window. In each successive shot, more and more of the flies are dead. That's like, symbolism and stuff.
EDIT: every original movie these days seems to be a lot like that however. that or 300.

My segment will have balloons, Anne Hathaway, and extreme chess.
Or just Sam Elliot having a staring contest with Sam Jackson. Whatever.
Reeper likie or you could have Ann and your gif girl make out, that could be the hook for the movie . . . double
I was think of something along the lines of the wizard instead we have this kid who is hypnotized by video games and his friends try to snap him out of it. We could change everything, including the actors, scenery and the game being played to make it inconsistent. The kid's brother/sister has a bug fetish and could explain the jar filled with flies.
And one of the friend's clover idea of snaping him out of his trans is to hire to hookers to have hot sweaty [censored by moderator] right between him and his x-box. This is where ken could fit Ann and the gif girl. And the flies could represent the kid's brain cells slowing dying away.
Woot! this shit is bound to get us an academy award . . . maybe even sweep the show!
Links, pics, vids . . . I shall post these when given the chance

I have always had a pointless scene for a movie in my head. Where an average joe wakes up one morning, all groggy and dishelved. He walks out of his bedroom and see's Jesus sitting in his living playing Nintendo. He doesn't seem surprised, and just say's "Hey Jesus...", and Jesus just kinda lifts his head for a second and replies, "What's up."
Then the guy walks into the kitchen to get breaskfast and there is a nude succubus sitting in his kitchen drinking coffee. He greets her like someone would their pet. After he grabs a cup of coffee he steps out on his back porch for a cigarette and there is a crater with a fallen satilite in his yard. He finishes his smoke, goes back inside, and hops in the shower. When he turns the spigots, he is doused in orange juice. He get's dried off and dressed. Walks out of his house and gets into a Hurst and drives off to work. (END SCENE)

If the film doesn't win an Oscar, it will at least be shown at the Sundance Film Festival. Seriously, those guys will show ANYTHING to their audiences.

My contributions will be time-lapsed withering of a flower, a german guy shouting randomly into the camera and a b&w of maggot infested meat. I'll send more if i come up with anything else.

Mine would be called "Pot Movie" and it would parody every movie where the characters get high.
...and somehow, I think that's already being made.

They already did it, Chapelle and Jim Breur were in it I think.

That would be "Half Baked", but it wasn't a parody (at least, I don't think it was).
In fact, if "Pot Movie" came out, I think it would parody "Half Baked" most of all, aside from Harold and Kumar.

Pot movie would two hours of a bunch of stoned idiots sitting on the couch watch Wondershowzen and delegating the task of going to 7-11 to get coke flavored slurpies and ju ju fish to the youngest / newest member of the group.

Sad part is, that would be more interesting than some of this tripe Hollywood's trotting out there.

We need pretentious music for a pretentious movie...shit, just steal the Juno soundtrack and paste clips of it during segues. My segment will feature a tub of raspberry jam and a giraffe.
SPIN Magazine interview, here I come!

So Syd, was this prompted by seeing a particular movie?
Incidentally, ever since the campaign videos that a number of folks did for the Forum Battle, I've thought it might be fun to have a SydLexia short film festival.

I have a super budget digital camera that I use to throw at my cat. It works and I can make a movie of some guy running around a tree.
I'm so bananas I'm showing up to your open casket,
to fill it up with explosive gases,
and close it back,
with a lit match in it,
while I sit back, and just hope it catches.
Blow you to fragments,
laugh,
roll you, and smoke the ashes.
or you could have Ann and your gif girl make out, that could be the hook for the movie . . . double
