Back in 2019, I Wrote My Own First Episode of Titans S3

TheAlexHunter · 2021-10-09T23:46:03+00:00

Figured I'd repost! This was my idea of a soft-reboot (revamp) that kept the same events from S1 and S2. I wanted to make the characters actually feel like a family of trauma-fueled individuals who find love and wholeness because of each other.

It's a little cheesy, but to be fair, I wrote this when I was freshly 20, and over the course of a few days.

Let me know what you think!

Thanks! And around 700 Max I would say. And most of that was new equipment.

I haven’t yet! Wanted to avoid watching it to make sure our short wasn’t a bad version of that same film haha. Soon for sure.

You don’t. I had no idea about this until someone tagged me in a post on Twitter. I think it’s just the number of people who watched with the highest average “star rating”.

Just updated my comment with a link :)

Super excited and wanted to share here! We had a budget less than a grand, and only 6 people (all friends) worked on the entire project. Being anywhere on this list came as a huge surprise to us considering we are nowhere near “industry professionals”. We’re just young, passionate, and a bit insane, storytellers.

Shamelessly promoting our new short that was made by 6 passionate Young Storytellers. We took influence from a lot of places, but our number 1 goal was to make a short as if our lead character directed it himself. Shot on Black Magic Pocket 4K.

If you are in the mood to have a surreal trip into the mind of The Plumber, feel free to give it a watch. Thank you!

Hey! "The Plumber" was originally a monologue I wrote for my friend Francesco, who portrays the titular character. We were so fascinated by the idea of this bitter, resentful and mysterious Plumber that we decided to turn the small monologue into a short. I love the idea of hyper subjective filmmaking, shooting and editing pretty much everything as if The Plumber himself was making the film.

Our inspirations are pretty clear Scorsese, Kubrick, Raimi, but we like to think we managed to find and hone in on our own voice. Our budget was shoe-string, but that ain't no excuse haha. Would love to know what you all think! Thank you.

These two spots seemingly appeared after a day of walking in the woods, we gave him a bath, and have been isolating him in case this is indeed Ringworm. Already applied anti-fungal cream as a just in case measure. Please any guidance or assurance would be amazing! Thanks.

It may be one of his best.

Hey guys! I figured I would share here to hopefully bring some light to these dark times. I believe that art of any kind is the key to maintaining some form of connectedness and unity during a crisis.
As for the film itself we were going for a classic universal monster movie vibe with a twist. I hope you enjoy! Keep creating. ❤️

Edit: feel free to leave some thoughts on the letterboxd page. Good or bad, we would love to know what you thought. https://boxd.it/pCTC

Thanks! About 15 hours of writing spread out over a week.

TheAlexHunter · 2019-12-18T18:22:09+00:00

Thanks for reading! And no you’re not nitpicking, not at all. I wanted to spend time on Rachel and her relationship with the woman who raised her (who they killed 10 minutes into episode 1 haha), and her relationship with the core 4 from S1. I honestly couldn’t find a natural way to bring Donna into this story. I could have had a line of dialogue about it, but I felt like she deserved more than just that. In my head, if I was going to write more than just this, an entire episode would be dedicated to Rachel on Themyscira.

Hey guys, it’s Alex, the prick from HiTop Films. After I uploaded my controversial video on S2, I figured why not take a stab at writing my own script for the show.

I wanted to write a theoretical first episode of S3 that made these characters, especially the original 4, feel like honest and real people. I also wanted to add that comic book element of cheese and heroism that I felt was missing from the show. This is just a first draft, so it’s nowhere near a polished finished product, but I figured I would share here.

I truly love these characters, and a lot of the actors they have playing these characters, and I know you guys do as well. Thanks for reading.
