Official Obama Movie Thread! COME IN AND JOIN US!!

[Jesterfoot]

I don't like posting the same thing twice, but this needs it's own thread. I have an idea for a pro-obama v3dmm film that I'd like to create, and promote the hell out of before the election. I'd feel like shit if I didn't do something major and he ended up losing, so this is like my last chance.

The rough idea would be Barack and John as roommates in an apartment building, symbolizing the contrast between recent democratic and republican beliefs, and highlighting on how illogical the latter is.

rough ideas:
1) the apartment is getting old, the carpet needs repairing, a roach investation is populating, barack mentions how they need to start fixing things before they get worse. John replies with his "that's not change we can believe in" attitude. Barack then says something like "I was just at Gordon Browns place, and his carpet is new, (mention something about the working healthcare plan, first aid kit?).

2) the story starts when a rock is thrown at their window in the direction of their iraqi neighboors pad, John throws a fit goes over there, breaks all his shit, and then sits on his couch while barack and the iraqi keep telling him to go home, but he wont budge. (though he notices the large suppy of energy drinks in his fridge [oil]) and starts to take some.

3) all the neighboors (countries) hate john and also barack by association.

4) The apartment manager (UN) also tells John not to go over to the iraqi's house, but John calls him a cunt and tells him to fuck off.

Sign up if you think you can help in ANY way. I need animators, writers, voice actors, illustrators, promoters, etc.

The first thing we need to do is brainstorm enough ideas to turn into a script, so if you have a good idea just post it in this thread!

I think it'd be funnier (and easier to manage) if you mostly stayed within the apartment and only mentioned the neighbors, just basing it on Obama and McCain talking. I like the idea of Obama trying to offer solutions and McCain constantly twisting his words to act like he'd just insulted him, Palin, or American workers.

My advice would be to keep it short and fun, not getting preachy. It'd make a great 3-minute comedy, I'm not so sure about a multi-part story.

(If you want to make a major difference in the campaign, I think they've set up call centers in California to contact potential voters in Nevada, one of the most important states for Obama to get. The ground game his campaign is waging there is unprecedented, and the number of registered Democrats is close to surpassing the number of registered Republicans).
