I Know I Want To See Some Hot Anthropoid On Anthropoid Action
My thanks to Matt for this....
"A man of our era will travel in time and will be found in the future where men and women live in separate societies"
Genre: Sci- Fiction
Nicolas Sniper, a pilot of flights in space, after suffering a great disappointment in love, will agree to lead a very dangerous experimental flight. Following problems on his spacecraft, he will uncontrollably speed up and will be lost in space.Our hero is found somewhere in Mars in the year 2142 due to the theory of relativity. There, he meets the male residents of the Federation of Mars living a very exciting life with female love partners who are anthropoids.
Soon, he sees into the fragile foundations of the happy -in appearance only- society and he will be forced to return back to earth where only females reside.In earth, he pretends to be a male anthropoid in order to find the truth and the reasons of the separation of two sexes. In spite that he is responsible for this separation between men and women without his knowing about it, he tries -in a desperate effort- to bring men and women back together.
I would like to submit this screenplay for your consideration and thank you in advance for your time.

working title: suck rogers in the 25th century.
"God damn you! God damn you all to hell!"
This isn't the last line of the movie. This is what readers say immediately after they finish the screenplay.
At least he thanked us for our time. Now all I want is an appology for inflicting this on us.
I assumed that "anthropoid" was some sci-fi fanboy term for a human-looking robot. But my handy-dandy Webster's defines anthropoid as a suborder of higher primates, i.e. apes.
So now I've learned something new, but the query is now stupider. Is that relativity? Or just really, really sad?
I suffered a great disappointment in love once. That night I found myself flirting with a fat girl at the bar. I was later found somewhere in her thighs but it had less to do with the theory of relativity and more to do with Vodka.
Nothing new? I am sad.
Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Earth, i guess.
Nicolas Sniper. Seriously? The protagonists name is Nicolas Sniper?
I think, if they ever greenlight that, they should cast Nicolas Cage. Because upon reading Nicolas Sniper i immediately thought of Nicolas Cage. Also, Cage is known for taking idiotic roles in idiotic movies (Ghost Rider, anyone?)
Then there's the "hero-suffering-from-great- disappointment-in-love-so-he-decides-to-do-
dangerous-experimental-things" cliché... please.
But the most idiotic thing is the time travel device. This, maybe most overused, SF story device always makes me cringe because usually it shows that the author is basically clueless about physics.
Seriously, he "uncontrollably speed up and will be lost in space", he then "is found somewhere in Mars in the year 2142 due to the theory of relativity. Yeah, the "theory of relativity" is known for being responsible for a lot of things. No wait, its just a theory. And a theory itself does not cause anything.
Ok, i may be nitpicking here, but please, i hate that time travel excuse for creating an alternative reality.
