Question:
I'm making a movie about YAP... could you help me out with some ideas?

It's a 500 million dollar budget Jerry Bruckheimer movie to be made under Dreamworks SKG. Spielberg turned down the offer to direct it stating that he "is not skilled enough to lead such a mammoth project".
It's the story about complete strangers meeting here at YAP and realizing that they have much in common. Then out of nowhere the dark lord WELL shows up with his henchmen of mini-WELLs armed with an arsenal of sarcasm and lies, threatening to destroy the peace that the yappers have been holding sacred for centuries. It all ends up with WELL falling out of a space shuttle with a suitcase filled with monopoly money (2.8 million monopoly dollars worth to be exact).

Who should play the different characters here like Allan, Adam, Chuck, Migs, Felicity, Inday, Bini,.... etc.? And who would be talented enough to play WELL? Pierce Brosnan?
Which actor/actress should portray YOU?
Any suggestion for a title?
Any alternate ending ideas?
Who should direct?
Theme song?
Am I nuts?

I think you should make the movie a comedy yet seemingly annoying(you know, a sitcom).



I think you should mention this in the movie:

╗ Tell the audience it was based on a true story.

╗ Names and aliases if the YAPpers

╗ The YAPper's life before they got involve in YAP

╗ How YAP began.

╗ How the people enjoyed YAP until the racists and the bad trolls came along

╗ Names and aliases of the of the racists and trolls.

ex's: Well(the fake one), Jim Justice, Palimos popo etc.

╗ The fighting and bickering of YAP vs Trolls



The story should have a lot of conflict of course.

Conflict 1: Some people(who aren't trolls) complaining about the non-related questions in the Travel-Philippines section and YAP supporters fighting back.

Conflict 2: Yap vs. Trolls and Racists

Conflict 3: The trial against Well



I think there should be a part in the movie where the whole thing becomes a detective story, though it wouldn't be long because it is primarily centered in the story of YAP. The detective should be a YAPper who's trying to find the name of Well in Google. I don't know who the detective should be. I think the screenplay writer should be the one to decide but I'd say Allan y.



Hey, I think you forgot something. The SCREENPLAY WRITER. You see, the director isn't the one who writes the story, it's the screenplay writer. The director is the one who makes the script created by the screenplay writer a movie.



There should be a lot of twists and turns in the movie. The biggest one should be where one finally found out who Well is and filed a case against him which started international controversy.



Personally, I don't agree with your ending. First of all, I said you should base it on a true story so therefore make the ending more realistic. I think it should go like this:

Well(whoever the heck he is) was found guilty of something bad. Maybe lying under oath from the government or insurance fraud stuff like that. It should also end with the YAPpers anonymity disintegrated because the YAPpers finally to got the chance to meet each other when all of them shows up in trial and after the trial, they had a big party at Allan's place.



Who should play me eh? Are there any Filipino child stars in Hollywood? If not, I don't know if the movie should ever mention me at all.



Who should be the director? I think it should be you. What, you said your making a movie.



Screenwriter? Me, no just kidding. I think it should be Scott Rosenberg.



One more thing before I'm done. How long would the movie last? I think it should be a 2 and a half hour film.

1 hour and 35 min.: Beginning of YAP and the start of the bickering

25 minutes: The investigation

30 minutes: the trial



I think that's just about all I could think of. I hope it helps!

It was your idea so you can have the director role. Or, since Yahoo Answers is a commuity, I'd love to see everyone take a role in the director position. I agree with Inday that everyone must play themselves or their "character."



Title: Meet the YAPPERS (This is a sequel to Meet the Parents and Meet the Fookers.)



I don't know about a theme song. I'll think about it.



No, you aren't nuts. As far as YAP is concerned, you are relatively normal.

we can create a story wherein everyone has their own life or story to tell.



they login to YAP, answer questions, instigate a fight, have their own "clique", bickering with each other but in reality, some are totally different from their YAP character, some are the same as they are and surprisingly, some end up as good friends but in YAP they're the worst enemies..like everyone has their own reason why they go to YAP and that would be the story. There is drama, irony,

humor,and action.



but these yappers do not know that somehow their lives are interconnected or somehow they have met and that someone's decision affected the life of another yapper.



*i cant think of title right now..*



gtg!

No need for big time actors... all the YAPpers could star as themselves! Except for Well... you should hire somebody to play him. He will just get killed if he keeps the sarcasm up. You could get Diegong Kabayo to portray him. :D



It's your idea so you could be the director! The setting could be in Malate, probably along Baywalk or the San Andres Park thing... you know, the one that holds the concerts and all.



I could be the fangirl following the TCs around. Hehe. Or maybe I could tag along with Pao as an extra? If that's ok, I mean. Hehe.

Nice Hair, Inday! BC was right! lol <*-*>



PT darling, I don't think Pierce Brosnan will accept the role being the Dark Lord Well.



►I'm still undecided on which actress should portray me. lol

►Title: The YAP's Lord of the Trolls"

►Well's troll will play the part 'Gollum' (from Lord of the Rings movie)

►Ending will be........

The Dark Lord Manic Well will be attacked by his own trolls "Gollum" who keeps on saying "My precious" (referring to the $2.8M.)

►I don't have any idea with the director as of now... maybe it will be you PT.

►Theme song:

"Stuck in a Moment (That You Can't Get Out Of)" by U2

►Eventhough we've clashed before, I don't think you're a nutsy. (You're a genius) You should really be the director, PT. <*-*>

me too, just a small but good part would be ok with me.. as long as I'm with Bini, kicking that person's a*s.. he/she is too annoying sometimes..



you could direct, or maybe Inday.. title could be The Wonderful World of YAPpers.. ☺



this is exciting, i think i should let my agent know right away.. *dreams on..*

Or it could be a rock opera like JC Superstar, or perhaps Phantom. For good measure you might have to insert the classic "saging lang ang may puso" line there somewhere, near the end maybe, I don't know.

Title "Ang Batang Walang Kalaro" - The Kid with No Playmates



YAPpers may play themselves...no need for professional actors.



Director: I think the honor should go to the one who volunteers first.



Theme Song: "Kaawaawa Ka Naman" (Poor, poor him....not!) - a parody of "Maalaala Mo Kaya" (Will you remember)



*I'll think of the lyrics shortly.



Last question: yes, you are, new luv <3........lol

"meet the yappers" is perfect.
