I was talking with my friend last night about writing out some ideas for scripts and all and I wondered if anyone here had any original or ideas or their own?
Just anything really stories or scriptwise or storyboards or anything.

Well that's pretty wide field there dude hmmm I've always been fascinated by the notion that aliens are not some critters from space but are here and always have been with us but just living/existing outside the range of normal perception. Perhaps there are intelligences that "vibrate"a much higher or lower rate than we do, and if we were to be able to speed up or slow down our rate of vibration then we'd see this whole new world surrounding us. I also imagine that the untapped areas of the brain might have the reception plugs to understand and communicate with intelligence that is very different from the norm, and in every sense alien, but which perhaps is an integral part of the very planet we inhabit. The earth's core is highly magnetic and also thermonuclear. It is the source of gravity - a force even physics at high levels really does not understand fully. Postulate someone stumbling onto forces connected with some sort of similar xenodimensional intelligence/s, and the conflict of eternal human nature to control everything it ever gets anywhere near with something so intrinsic to life as we know it and yet so alien. It would likely not take kindly to being ordered about, but surely, someone would try, and need to be thwarted. This is all brain lint that I've never managed to coagulate into an actual story. But consider it tossed up like weird confetti, to do with as you will.

I also have a Fanfic.Net account, but haven't been able to write anything yet. My specialty is screenwriting, but I am plagued by being derivative, impulsive, and a procrastinator

Funny you should mention that about aliens, Mesila.
I've always had this idea that all these UFO sightings and alien sightings/abductions are really just humans from the distant future who've created time travel and came back to see where they came from and such.

I always thought we're the aliens we're looking for. They say a meteor crashed on earth, well maybe there were organisms on that rock and inhabited the planet after it crashed, and eventually evolved into what's here today.

Here's another one I thought of. In a way it sort of mirrors my own experience, except 1) I didn't connect with my own xenodimensional (Choronzon) til I was in my twenties 2) I imagine a much darker sort of entity involved here than I am experienced in a close contact way with 3) what I know of coercive rehabs is from reading about them, reading the stories of people who spent years of their adolescence imprisoned in such facilities is pretty gripping - see fornits.com/anonanon to see what I mean. Synopsis: This is a sort of alternative take on demonic possession. I imagine a teenager - it could be a boy or a girl, but would probably work better as a film if it were a girl, a loner at her school, who develops a connection to a demon. It seems to be her servant and her lover, and there are some unexplainable and perhaps horrific incidents connected to this girl involving other students at her school who have hassled or rejected her, or perhaps teachers who have scolded her. Her parents, very religious and also gullible people, who are unfortunately also wealthy, decide instantly upon seeing her behaviour and hearing stories of what happens to people who get in her way, assume it's the work of Satan and of drugs, and so pay a rehab facility to have her professionally kidnaped and taken to their compound. This involves drugging her with an antipsychotic tranquilizer and then once she is there, keeping her on this drug while breaking her will with the techniques used at such places, which are derived from things learned from Korean prisoners of war who were "re-educated" using such means - torture and brainwashing. Essentially the demon is driven from the girl, and after this happens there's a marked increase in crazed, violent warlike behaviour, all over the planet. It comes to be seen that the demon did not merely possess the girl, but she also possessed IT, and by separating the two, the human world was slammed into total peril. There'd have to be someone else - an occultist, perhaps - who has some knowledge of demons and their signs and this person can attribute the disaster to this one, and knows how to get its attention without summoning it. This is one thing films are constantly getting wrong about demons. THEY CANNOT BE "SUMMONED" and controlled. They DO NOT like it (who would want to be enslaved?) and tend to usually ignore those who try it, or once in a while if particularly irritated will drive the summoner mad: this actually happened to Aleister Crowley and his friend when they tried to summon Choronzon with the idea of mastering it. Our occultist hero has to understand this and yet know how to communicate with the entity. Once this is done, it gives enigmatic signs that lead the occultist to the demon's human lover. It becomes a race against time as he or she tries to spring the girl from the rehab. It could go in a lot of different ways. Perhaps the demon's lover is killed at the rehab - kids die at these places a lot - they're really quite sick. It would then become necessary for the demon to find a new host, someone who would accept it as it is and form a symbiotic relationship to it. Perhaps the occultist who discovers the problem's source, or someone entirely different. Perhaps the conjoinment never happens, and separating the girl from her demon turns out to be the downfall of the human race. There's a lot of places one could go with this. One interesting facet of this story idea is that it could help build awareness of coercive rehabs, which are not motivated by any real desire to help people, but are run by very greedy individuals who cut corners in every way, do not employ professional doctors, and guilt trip parents into sending their children to their facilities even when there's been no drug use or trouble with the law - they convince rich parents that normal adolescent behavior makes them "at-risk" youth. There's a couple in Florida who started the worst of these rehabs - Straight, Incorporated - who have also done a lot of damage to the state of Florida by blockbusting neighbourhoods there (buying up lots of cheap property and then turning it all into condos that only very rich persons can afford.)

They say a meteor crashed on earth, well maybe there were organisms on that rock and inhabited the planet after it crashed, and eventually evolved into what's here today. I've had that thought myself often. It seems humans don't fit in. We don't "play well with others" on this planet, even our own selves. Humans only care about people who they can exploit in some way, most of the time, even when it's not really apparent. And their care for animals and plants is almost nil. There's a handful of truly compassionate individuals out there - the rest are selfish. Animals usually don't kill unless they have to. IIRC, we're the only species that does it for sport.
