    That sounds like one of the sorriest plots I’ve ever heard.

    It sounds an awful lot like most of today’s plots.

    Don’t forget to add lots & lots of pointless CGI.

    Does PETA get a few lines?

    Maybe the couple could get a reformed neo-Nazi skinhead to come in and channel a message to his ancestors, telling the ghosts that all is forgiven…

    Actually, racist, segregated cemetaries still exist in western North Carolina; my parents are buried in one of them. Parts of this great land are still narrow-minded, shallow and redneck. That’s why I live two time zones away from that ilk.

    As someone who is trying to put together a story I found this advice invaluable.

    How will this story ever work? Where are the super-powered mutants?

    I would totally pay to see this movie. Could we get Joss Whedon to write it?

    Neon Nurse, great minds think alike. And so do ours.

    Great Story line - - Base it in Forks, WA so it will fit in with the ‘Twilight’ series - - -

    Now, if we can just set this epic dramatic masterpiece in a lavishly appointed mansion cast with a herd of talent-free self absorbed drunkards abusing four or more controlled and/or banned chemical substances, work in high powered gunfire and explosions, long drawn out high speed chase scenes preferably involving real cops, and throw in some gratuitous meaningless pornography, what we can’t make into a summer blockbuster will certainly qualify for reality television on five or six cable channels.

    But if you place it in Forks, the protagonists will have to chant “That’s All Right” 1000 times in Coast Salish.
