a big wtf?

How exactly does a kids movie starring ‘The Rock’ come in at number one for the weekend? Yes, that is correct. Game Plan was the top grossing film for the weekend.

That can only be summed up with one thought.

wtf?

Subliminal movie making.

Every umpteenth frame there is a still of The Rock holding a puppy hostage. If the kids don’t watch the movie again, the puppy gets it.

It’s a proven fact kids have low pain thresholds conscerning scary giants and sad puppies. Ingenious.

Be sure to add something like this into your script.

Yes, I think you are correct. It is a must add to the script.

So far, I’ve got giants holding puppies hostage and rollerblading ninjas, or something like that…and a car chase, because you have to have a car chase. and gratuitous nudity. everyone loves that.
