I'm not sure if something like this has already been in a thread here, but here are the rules:
You've been given free range on making a film. Disregarding time periods, you need to choose a director, writer, and five actors/actresses to star.
For example:
Director: Paul Thomas Anderson
Writer: David Simon
Actors/Actresses:
Marlon Brando
Natalie Portman
Philip Seymour Hoffman
Ryan Gosling
Ingrid Bergman
Your turn.
You're making a movie...

Emanuelle in Outer Space (1980)

Samuel L. Jackson as Nameless Black Guy Who Dies First

Excellent (and funny), and points out that you should say something about the movie you're making. I've gotta think.

Yeah, that's what I thought too. While sixx's personal choices are quite interesting, reading them seems a bit boring without some backstory.

Jupiter Rising
A modern, graphically erotic, philosophical love story, with plentiful on and off screen music.
Director: The Coen Brothers
Jupiter: Colin Farrell
Juno: Madonna
Venus: Anna Kendrick
Diana: Uma Thurman
Minerva: Mila Kunis
Apollo/Mercury combo: Bradley Cooper
Philosopher/computer whiz/Oracle/down to earth mortal: Emma Stone
Pluto (Hades): Wesley Snipes
Frequent cameos such as George Clooney chained to the Prudential Building while buzzards eat his liver, and Jodie Foster as a down on her luck prostitute in the tenderloin district.
Movie opens using requiem footage from Evita where Juno, queen of the gods, lies in state in a transparent coffin, having tragically taken her own life--the only way a goddess can die. Jupiter's three surviving wives scheme and manipulate him to chose them to be Juno's successor. The maneuvering causes all hell (Hades/Pluto) to break loose in Olympus (the California equivalent of Rome, San Francisco), causing Jupiter to seek solace with a human woman, the Oracle of Silicon Valley. But when he gets there, she's cavorting in the shower with Apollo--causing all Hades to break loose there as well.
I checked to make sure there wasn't another movie of that title, and there is Jupiter Ascending (2014), directed by the Wachowski Siblings , with the following plot line: In a universe where humans are near the bottom of the evolutionary ladder, a young Russian immigrant janitor who cleans toilets for a living (Mila Kunis as Jupiter Jones), possesses the same perfect genetic makeup as the Queen of the Universe, thus posing a threat to her rule. Channing Tatum is sent to assassinate her but falls in love with her instead. This sounds as interesting as mine so we're in talks to release them in tandem.

Re: You're making a movie...
Casting report: (this sub-thread has taken on a life of it's own )
I'm happy to report that we have completed signing all the cast members with Emma deciding to sign on. She was so happy with how negotiations went, she insisted on playing the role Pro Bono for every day I was on the set. I said, "What kind of gigolo do you think I am", to which she just blushed as demanded, "Well?"
But wait, there's more.
When the "goddesses" heard about it, they all insisted on the same contract. I mulled this over while pacing the back lot, but finally ended up deciding to give it the old college try. But then Colin, who wasn't about to give up all his wives to some hack writer, and Bradley who had already been rehearsing the shower scene with Emma, caught up with me. Needless to say, it wasn't pretty. My testicular reconstruction surgery went well but the surgeon said it would be 6 months before I'd be able to "work" again. I thought I'd be out of the project until I heard the shooting had been delayed a coincidental 6 months.
Then Emma decided to take a sabbatical during the delay, with her family that lives here Phoenix, conveniently close by to the hospital. She's caused something of a local stir here, volunteering as a Pink Lady, and she even arranged for a private suite with an all male nursing staff, insisting she could see to my rehabilitation and therapy. Now it's my turn to blush. Things are looking up.
I hope this gets whatever I've got out of my system. With apologies to my sweet-hot.
So uhhhh, sixx; you got a story yet?

Re: You're making a movie...
I would pay money to watch edkrak's movie.
After a good 3 or 4 minutes of deliberation, here's mine:
Dir: Sergio Leone
Wri: Akira Kurosawa
Starring:
Toshiro Mifune
Charles Bronson
Lee Marvin
Tatsuya Nakadai
Michael Fassbender
The film would consist of the first 4 men talking about how badass they are for 90 minutes, followed by a 30 minute fight to the finish, Thunderdome style. Fassbender would play the sardonic Japanese-English translator.

Re: You're making a movie...
All I want is Joss Whedon to do Stephen R. Donaldson's Gap cycle as a four movie deal starring Jeff Bridges as Angus Thermopyle. I need to go re-read the character descriptions again before I can proceed with any other casting choices.
