This is like my Video Game Ideas You've Had thread but instead for films and TV shows. These can be animated, live action, a mix of both, neither (fairly certain that last one would just be a blank space but you do you). Just any ideas you've had.

I recently had an idea for a Guardians of the Galaxy animated film with the vibrant colors and spectacular alien locations from the 2021 Video Game and the 2D/3D animation style similar to Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse or Arcane.

Game of Thrones but make it Greek mythology.

[up] No, that should have its own thread, imo.

A horror-comedy where someone accidentally donates either a Tome of Eldritch Lore or just a general cursed artifact to a Goodwill (or a Bland-Name Product version thereof). This was admittedly a novel I was going to write (and still might), but I also feel like it has potential as a movie or series? I can see the pitch as being "Clerks meets Evil Dead". At the time I came up with this, I was working at a Goodwill where, periodically, someone would mass-donate a deceased loved one's belongings only to find out there was something they didn't mean to donate in there and have us go through the bins to salvage it before it was either sold off or shipped off to another location, so the inspiration was this and all the Lovecraft and other cosmic horror I was reading at the time.

Bit of a dumb idea too, but a horror movie where basically all the heroes are a Velma (y'know, smart and aware) but the villain is an absolute idiot and manages to kill everyone through sheer dumbassery

Best advice I ever got? Keep repeating the joke till everyone is forced to laugh.

I've probably posted this before in another thread but I can't remember. Sorry if I did.

A generic isekai harem anime where the protagonist wakes up in a mysterious fantasy land full of busty women and demons that look like toddlers but are Really 700 Years Old, except the protagonist is actually aroace and the women that were supposed to be his wives become his found family instead. And the demons actually have a reason for being Older Than They Look: they disguise themselves as little girls to lure lolicons into secluded areas, in which they reveal their true demon forms and kill them.

Inconsistently active.

Too many to count.

The show that keeps coming to mind would be Phantasmagoria/The Witching Hour (originally called the former, but I'm liking the latter) which is about three young people (one adult man and two teenage girls) who fight supernatural evils.

A western that hits many of the same beats as a typical Magnificent Seven Samurai, except taking cues from The Dirty Dozen, by having the posse be made of scoundrels taking the job for a pardon. I'd call it "The Malicious Seven", which is a title I came up with almost twenty years ago.

Do webseries count here? Because I sometimes think of things that would be cool for, like, YouTube horror series
