I'm stuck on an idea.
In the original Time Machine movie, they use a siren to connect the future to the past. Explaining that in 1966 when you heard the air raid siren, you would go under ground to escape the bombs. When the bombing stopped it was "all clear." The Morlocks in the movie used that air raid sound to lure the Eloi under ground so they could eat them. When the doors to the sphinx closed, it was all clear.
My sequel is of the book, where the air raid thing never happens. In my sequel I'm making the same connection with a different sound. When George arrives in Manhattan to rescue his daughter he encounters a young lady in Time Square, during a New Years celebration, he mistakes for his daughter. She points out to him how people blindly follow the music from a stage set up in Time Square, that has a holographic band being broadcast from England , live.
When the Morlock come back, in the future, from George's failure to rescue his Time Machine prototype, they play a holographic image and sound in the base of the sphinx, of Led Zeppelin playing Kashmire, to lure the Elio down into the sphinx.
Your thoughts.

My first blog.
Hi.
These are the first words I am posting to this here blog. I'm starting this here blog because I have found a new passion, to add to all the other passions in my life. And there are many. Most of them legal.
Screenplay writing is my newest passion. In this blog I hope to bring brains together to create a screenplay writers community. Many people have ideas for movies. They say "I got a great idea for a movie." They say what the idea is, and it dies right there at their feet.
Maybe you got drunk at a wedding and thought of a premise for a movie. After you slur out the details, the idea drowns in your beer. This forum would allow you to get instant feedback on your idea. All ideas would be protected by the nature of the medium they are communicated on.
But, I would encourage all parties interested in sharing ideas to protect their material legally.
Ideas can be shared, not only about premises, dialog etc. but how to actually write a screenplay. Where to get help publishing.
Post entire screenplays and or sections of screenplays for critique by the community. Watch the language and the personal attacks.
Here's to good ideas.
