The only original concept in Hollywood is...

Well there really isn't an original concept happening in Hollywood.

I remember reading about the chick who played Shirley on Laverne and Shirley trying to get some movies made...she ended up getting an executive producing credit just because she came up with the "idea" of a Father Of The Bride remake...how fucking lame is that?

Really fucking lame, maybe I should go into the movie idea business.

Just write down 20 movie ideas a day and copyright them.

Make about 25k an idea or an executive producer credit and about 1 point off the profits.

I spent 5 years working in the commercial/print/ and film industry...worked for a producer who has some serious credits under his name like Terminator 3.

Anyway there was this guy that used to preach the high concept idea. Basically all you should do is go around and sell ideas and the most you should get involved in is maybe writing the treatment...if you can't get much cash then settle for a producing credit of some kind so that way you at least get your name on screen which will usually help you get your next idea sold and you end up snowballing to the point that you've got some good cash coming in.

The reasoning behind this is that most screenwriters spend a lot of time tweaking a screenplay only to have it optioned for let's say $25K.

The screenplay then stands a chance at going through so many rewrites that eventually you may lose credit all together.

So the game is to go into a producers office with no less than 10 "high concept" ideas...there definition of high concept is if you can put it into a simple phrase like...it's Armageddon meets Dumb and Dumber. Pitch those ideas and hopefully sell one.

Who knows...haven't been in that game in awhile..it's a vicious one.
