    Default Official Themes Suggestions

    As the title says, it's going to be a huge list of suggestions for themes and such for the future contests.

    Write your suggestions, and make them in BOLD. As long as it's not something already mentioned, or done in previous contests... it works.

    Either is good. In fact, both!

    I like the idea of chucking in items rather than themes at times.

    How about How to get big things in your mouth?

    Or better still:

    How to get big things OUT OF your mouth.

    Mod Note: Moved to correct thread.

    Here's my suggestions so far:

    1) Bomb
    2) Running out of time
    3) Death
    4) Conversation
    5) Driving (this one can be made using green screen for people that can't drive)
    6) Memory
    I DO IT BECAUSE I CAN. I CAN BECAUSE I WANT TO. I WANT TO BECAUSE YOU SAID I COULDN'T.

    I can drive, and yet I can't drive. As soon as I gather enough courage to face the driving instructor for my G1 road test, anyway...

    Maybe the theme could be a logline sometimes. Something irresistible: Man thinks he gets a phone call from the president who wants him to go on a secret mission. Or: Thief has stolen more than he can carry and is found by his victim.

    Ha, Candadians actually get tested! Where I live, the test consisted of driving around an empty business park, and then parking in an angled space. No parallel parking, no three-point-turns, no uphill parking, it was ridiculous. There was a girl in my driving class who got a D- on her learner's permit test (That's a near-failure in American grades), she then crashed her car on the first day of permit-driving, crashed it twice more, and still passed her final driving exam. Scary.

    Ooh! Can one of the themes be "Danger to society"?

    Sounds like a story I heard where it took a girl 7 trys to get her G2 (at $75 each test after the first one!), then she rear-ended some one right afterward. And yet girls get lower interest rates.

    You American's are lucky. So are all Ontarians who got their license before 1992, when the probationary driving was introduced. We also have to be at least 16 too...

    Okay, rant is over.

    What about WOOD, TREE, and PHOTO?
