OUCS: Team of Rivals

For those unfamiliar with it, the book Team of Rivals discusses how Abraham Lincoln got a bunch of people who did not agree with him to join his cabinet because he was a good and open president. I heard the title and thought of the film The One, with Jet Li. This preview explains it. One thing led to another and another comic idea was born. This is also suitable to be used for a movie preview or movie idea. As usual, contact me if you use the idea.

Panel 1:

We see the White House in an older time. People outside ride those old fashioned bicycles.

Aide (not seen): Mr. President, the machine is ready.

Panel 2:

We see a shadowy figure in front of a giant circular gate machine.( I guess like a Stargate, I never watched the show. Better yet like the thing they used in Johnny Quest to go into Quest World. )It is the silhouette of Abraham Lincoln, giant hat and everything.

OUCS: Daybreakers Parody

Welcome to the first Open Use Comic Script where when I have an idea I can't use, I will do my best to turn it in to a script. If you need one for the week, feel free to take and use it, possibly even edit, just link me when it is done.

This Episode: Daybreakers Parody

If you were unaware, Daybreakers was that vampire film that came out where vampires who don't get blood turn into crazy Nosferatu vampires and since everyone (not everyone) wanted to become a vampire, there is less and less blood. They hook humans up to machines and the humans not hooked up are fighting back or they want a cure. They find it and then presumably everyone lives happily ever after especially Willem DeFoe's beard. All in all, the movie feels like the Matrix trilogy did with the humans hooked up to machines, the stylistic filming and the few shots with fighting. Also some of the really wooden acting.

Panel 1:

Business Man (the fat guy) and the two executive are in the office talking.

Business Man: All these kids are complaining about Twilight messing up vampires and werewolves. How can we profit from this?

Executive One: Gritty re-imagining of the monsters.

Executive Two: A vampire Matrix!

Panel 2:

Executive One: You mean Daybreakers?

Executive Two: Hmmmm. What if we mix werewolves and another 90's film.

Business Man: Genius!

Goldblum: Isn't there a threat to having werewolves in a park. Can't they reproduce?

Old Man: Don't worry. They are all males.

Panel 6:

Goldblum looks angry.

Goldblum: That... that means nothing! Lycanthropy is passed on in biting.

Panel 7:

Old Man does not take this shit seriously.

Old Man: At least we'll be fine unless every part of the billion dollar security system fails.

Panel 8:

Old Man knocks coffee on his laptop.

Panel 9:

Room is dark except for eyes of the people.

Old man: Shit.

Panel 10
