> Wait, I just realised. If it *was* a romantic comedy, we'd get to see either of the aforementioned actresses having their faces slammed into a wall. Stephen, you're *only* allowed to use that story in your movie if it's a romantic comedy.

You can't amend your terms now. I already had permission. Anyway, this is just the sort of scene you'd expect to see in a (bad) romantic comedy, and it would function as the "meet cute" for the two leads. Which is precisely why I wouldn't do it.

No, this scene would be much better in a sci-fi action flick. The Colonial Marines are doing trust exercises in boot camp and this happens. Then the aliens burst in and eat the person who ran into the wall. See, it's funny and then I hit you with the aliens. It throws you off your guard. You don't know whether to laugh at the accident or be disgusted at the carnage. It's brilliant!

Ste "The correct response is to laugh at the carnage" phen
