2012 End Of The World Movie? Hollywood Say Yes!
For many, 2012 will be a year to remember because of the Mayan prophecy of 2012 end of the world. Today on the Internet, you will find many type of sites created about 2012 but it's Hollywood that will make the money by exploiting the disaster angle.
Movies
The studios are not stupid thus they planned a lot of movies. In 2009, the major 2012 movie will be release.. After that, you should expect a stream of movies related to 2012.
I don't mind it since we had the same kind of thing happened when the year 2000 was at our doors. Hollywood studios made 2 movies in 1999. The other movies were made much before that.
Television
Television studios don't give a good chance this days for new TV series to get followers. On that note, they could start thinking in a limited TV series of 1 season with the last episode on December 21, 2012.
The 21 episodes series could start in Winter 2012(10 episode), stop for the Summer and restart in the Fall(11) to end in December 2012.It could have a rerun in the Summer to get new viewers and create momentum for the second part in the Fall.
If they want to start sooner like in 2011, I would not mind.
The story
I'm using “person” since it could be a man or woman.
With an aliens or a secret organization, you can have human experiments done by both to control behaviors. It could be done with genetics, drugs, video or music. Of course, aliens have more powerful technologies and they could take the series a notch higher.
First Part: A person discover a conspiracy to take over the world by aliens or a secret organization. The person is framed for a terrorist attack by their agents thus can't ask for the police help. A FBI task force is pursuing the person. On their way they must find proof, convince others and find allies.
Second Part: A resistance movement is started to help the person against the aliens or secret organization.
Possible story lines for episodes:
- People are getting missing on a stretch of highways
- The person take over a television station
- After an explosion, the person wake up to find that he failed
- A gang of biker are terrorizing a small town
- The person must find if a military academy was infiltrated
- The person find a few pages of prophecies that was written 800 years ago to guide him
- The person is arrested by a corrupt sheriff in a small town
Conclusion
I don't want to steal work from writer so I don't want to give them more ideas.
On December 22, 2012, they could release a Blu-Ray boxset with a few alternate endings and unrated episodes if it's a big network who aired it. It would be on a Saturday.
