Wicked Pixies

I just came across a blog where they had ripped actual pixel's from old-school videogames. Just searching through these brought up a ton of ideas, which is awesome cause i have been at a loss for ideas on my script lately. Check out some of these "pixies".


i can incorporate these pixels into the movie to further promote my theme of life as a videogame. I want to make Mario pass by just as another car on the road. And other various characters will be stumbled upon by the main character.






I want to turn an average event of going to the grocery store into a videogame level where the main character must navigate a labyrinth of a store to get skim milk for his girlfriend. Upon reaching the dairy section he must defeat scorpion and in the midst of all the action he mistakenly picks up whole milk.














Opening credits appear as Ben wakes up from an afternoon nap to his girlfriend, Wendy, calling and asking him to stop by the store.
(Phone rings)
Ben picks up phone and looks at who is calling, then answers.
Ben: Hey Boo.
pause Ben: What do you need?
pause
(screen comes up showing 3 choices of remarks for Ben to say. An outline switches back and forth signalizing a selection being made. Option 1: OK fine i'll run by and pick it up for you.
Option 2: Umm... No.
Option 3: I really don't understand why you get that watered down crap.
(the selection highlights the choice of...)
Ben: I really don't understand why you get that watered down crap.
pause Ben: Whatever you look great.
Screen appears with text saying
"Do you accept Quest: Skim milk?" With options "sure. why not?" and "She can get it herself." as two options.
(Selection highlight moves over the options.)
Ben: Yeah i'll be over once i pick up the milk.
Ben gets up to go to the bathroom and sits down on the toilet as sound effects similar to when mario warps between levels through pipes. He looks around for the toilet paper as suddenly an elf from GoldenAxe appears in the door with the t.p. in grasp. The elf chuckles then runs off with the paper in his sack.
