Oh no... Another great idea
« on: April 07, 2007, 12:01:10 AM »

I know that we all need another idea for a possible project like we need a hole in our heads, but I kind of had this idea and Dee urged me to post it here to see if anyone else would be interested if participating with it or at least reading it.

The premise is this... I was reading another one of those "BSB are stalked by a mad man who for some reason or another wants to kill and torture them." Many of you know this is not my favorite genre, but I'm like a little kid at a horror movie; completely petrified, but peeking between my fingers cuz in a peverse way I want to know what happens next. But I digress... Anyway I was thinking Hmm... What of we were to take the standard plotline of BSB being held hostage and turn it into sort of a black comedy? It would be really fun if we could include a twisted cast of other characters being held hostage w/ them as well. (Girlfriends, friends, Paris Hilton perhaps? LOL) Clearly you have to see the comic potential here, right? It could be really interesting especially if we come up with some scandalous backstory that comes out piece by piece the longer they are held captive.

So am I completely nuts or do any of you think that this has potential here and would be interested in something like this?

 :D I started to write one of those "BSB stalked and held hostage" stories, but I never really got anywhere with it. *sigh*

That does sound interesting, and it could definitely have several possibilities. Let me ruminate on it while I sleep, 'cause it's bedtime now, and my two kids don't understand when I tell them "Mommy was on the Absolute site last night goofing off!" ;)

Oh, what the hell. Count me in! ;D

I did a bsb stalked story.. but it was for the story challenge on my own site. *laughs* it's by FAR my worst story ever and that's after you take into consideration how "fond" I am of Messing with Magic.

Yea well its not really sumthin that i can devote too much time to until the summer anyway, but i just thought I'd lay it out there and see what everyone else thought about it. I wasn't sure if it would be good enough to really catch on.

It's something that I would be interested in doing Mel, but I don't know how well I would do. I've never written anything like that and I don't usually do anything really dark, but if it were a dark comedy that's different and I think I would enjoy it. If and when you start it up, let me know and we'll talk. I'd love to hear what ideas your thinking about.

Summer sounds good, lol I have 3 summer projects now. But it sounds interesting and I always love jumping into collabs with people.

Oh no I'm not the greatest w/ dark things too. I'm saying put a comedic twist on a normally dark and twisted situation. The humor will be a lil messed up, but thats the fun of it. Plus just think of all the ways we could torture Paris LOL

Sounds interesting, lol I'd love to see how it turns out. I'd pitch in but I'm not sure just how far I can stretch myself right now lol.
