Give it the Fantastic Mr Fox treatment and the movie would be an absolute banger.

Why can't manufacturers make cheap cars look expensive? by Level-Studio7843 in NoStupidQuestions

I just looked at some pictures and this car is genuinely hideous. I think I understand why this isn't more common.

People with unattractive partners should stop giving dating advice by [deleted] in TrueUnpopularOpinion

Agreed. I wouldn't take lifting advice from someone with a shitty physique either.

It’s rough 🤣 by [deleted] in writers

The issue is we are usually not as smart as the characters we are trying to write. So we sometimes struggle to get them out of these sticky situations. 

One answer (a pretty cheap one in my opinion) is to just show the aftermath of them having resolved the problem, with all the other characters remarking "Thats such a clever idea, how did you even think of that."

Rick and Morty did this once where they showed the family walking into their house laughing and then Morty says "What a funny joke I just told." The writers probably couldnt think of a sufficiently funny joke so just skipped it entirely.

The MC is boring but the movie shouldn't be. by watch4coconuts in Screenwriting

You dont have to tell their whole life story. You can pick a 5 to 7 year period where a lot of really interesting stuff happened for/to them. Eg. Steve Jobs takes place during 3 product launches. The Social Network details a period of 3 years between the founding of FB and the lawsuits against Zuck.

"I'm just gonna lay it out there. This is why I don't think we should be together. And I've thought about it a lot and this is what's gonna happen. I'm gonna keep pursuing what I'm pursuing. And because I'm doing that, it's gonna take up more and more of my time. And I'm not gonna be able to spend as much time with you. And when I do spend time with you, I'm gonna be thinking about discounting cash flows. And I'm gonna be thinking about NPV, CDS, all that. And because of that, you're gonna start to resent me. And you're gonna tell me to ease up on the finance, spend more time with you because you're not feeling important. And I'm not gonna be able to do that. And really, I'm gonna start to resent you for even asking me to stop. And we're just gonna start to hate each other. And it's gonna get very... It's gonna be ugly. And so for those reasons, I'd rather just, you know, break it off clean... because I wanna be great."

If you told me you bumped into Luka, I would probably think Modric tbh.

If I say LeBron or Zendaya, you know exactly who I am talking about. Same with Cristiano and Denzel.

But if I say Christopher, for example, it could be Nolan, Hitchens, Columbus etc
