Progress Work: Brainstorming Scenes

When we ran into Dave early last week he told us to just think of as many scenes as we can to get started. So later we did exactly that and here is what we came up with. This was totally random and not linear in any way. This post is a follow up from my earlier post, [click here to view it]

Kid with a PSP (Dave Green’s idea…sort of)
A kid is crossing the road and a truck out of control is speeding towards him. A lighting fast flash of light (Superman) zooms past the truck to save the kid. In the excitement the kid drops his PSP on the street but is saved. Superman gives a speech to the kid and flies away, on his way out he ends up stepping on the PSP

Heat Vision
Superman uses heat vision to save nuclear power plant or a warhead missile. He ignores the big sign saying “flammable” and ends up blowing up the entire area.

Lois Lane
Superman saves a woman trapped in chains/shackles made of metal. He uses his heat vision directed at these shackles and ends up burning her.

Incredible’s Spoof
Superman is pissed off at the end of the day and picks up a car to throw (he’s under his secret identity alter ego). A kid sees him and is speechless.

Flying with Ipod
Superman is flying in the air listening to a Michael Jackson sound track on his iPod, yes even he has one.

Elevator
Superman needs to change from his work outfit into his suit in an elevator but is struggling to take off his cloths, he eventually takes them off and leaves them in the elevator. Someone else walks in and wonders why there are cloths left on the floor of the elevator.

Machine gun
Machine gun shots are fired at Superman’s chest, the bullets end up flying and killing everyone around him.

Buying Coffee (The one we ended up with, sort of)
Superman doesn’t have a wallet or pockets in his spandex suit but goes in line to buy coffee and runs into trouble; he wants free coffee.

Kid walks across
A kid walks across the street playing his PSP a truck is about to hit him. Superman swoops in to save the kid by using his body. The truck crashes into him. The driver comes out yelling “Oh man, my truck!”. On his radio we hear a discussion about a nuclear launch in North Korea and Superman flies away.
