Every so often, I think of great ideas for films that minutes later reveal themselves to either be terrible, weird or unfilmable. Rather than letting them disappear into the ether, I am committed to writing them down, so that future generations will remember my ponderous plots, senseless scenes and head hurting histories.
No. 1: ‘Loons
Everyone in the world wakes up to discover their heads have been replaced by balloons. There is then a race against time to discover the cause before everyone’s noodle deflates.
Key scene: Upon meeting the villianous Dr. Helium, our hero decapitates him, cuasing his head to float gently into the sky.
What happens next? You can’t just leave us hanging. I presume that once Doc Helium meets his demise, everybody’s heads are restored?!
That Doctor Helium is a gas man
Sadly not. While Doc. Helium is defeated, he did not create an antidote. So our heroes are stuck with their balloons heads. But with Dr. Helium no longer controlling the helium industry, people can refill themselves when deflated.
