Original question by @0_0j@lemmy.world
This might seem as counter intuitive, as there are folks that hijack ideas for a living, But hey, F*IT; lets hear your craziest plots you can concoct. We'll be the judge of them.
I'm down for a good laugh.

Me and some friends wrote an outline for a zombie movie years ago from the viewpoint of the zombies. They see themselves as cultured and "normal" while the living are viewed as savages who waste their lives working, keeping up with the Jones' and addicted to stupid stuff like reality TV. It would have been done in the style of The Office/What We Do In the Shadows, with a film crew following around a small group of Zombies who explain their lives. The zombies would have a very close-knit socialist/utopia type lifestyle while us stupid living lived in a right-wing 'murica hellscape.
My other idea around the same time actually made it into a TV series years after I wrote out an outline, too. I wanted to do an Office Space/Waiting style show but set in the big box retail world. About 10 years later, Superstore came out.
If I was rich, I would be signing over a 500M budget over to you right now
Sadly, I'm just a Lemming :'(
I'll take 250M if that's more your budget.
cool, calling dibs on the other 250M
