LOTF as My Own Movie

1.I think that Will Smith would play Ralph the best because Will Smith:
  • plays good leader roles in many of his movies.
  • shows that he can play a good role of a person surviving in uninhabited places. He shows this in his movie "I Am Legend."
  • is always trying to look out for everybody in his movies.
  • is unselfish because he puts other people before him.
  • makes intelligent decisions in his movies.

2.I believer that Stewie Griffin (from Family Guy) would play Jack best because Stewie:

  • has a fiery personality.
  • mostly only cares about himself.
  • is always causing arguments.
  • likes to take charge of things if he thinks the leader isn't doing a good job.
  • thinks that he is better than other people and, thus, thinks that he should be the leader.

3.

I think that Vern Tessio (the character from Stand By Me) would play Piggy the best, since Vern:

  • doesn't defend himself much when others are teasing him.
  • sometimes keeps on talking and talking, annoying others.
  • is made fun of by other people.
  • worries about many things.
  • lacks athletic skills.

4.
I think that Batman would play Simon the best because Batman:

  • is a person that doesn't socialize much.
  • mostly works alone.
  • is a quiet type of person.

5.

I believe that the Joker (from the Batman series) would best play Roger because the Joker:
  • is diabolical.
  • does not feel bad about doing his crimes.
  • kills people.

6. These are 2 pictures of my "beastie":






7. My movie would take place on Mars. One thing I would change about the movie is the time setting. Instead of the movie taking place in the future, my movie would take place in an even farther future, where scientists are able to make uninhabitable planets habitable. Scientists have made Mars habitable and animals have started living there, but there are still no humans living on the planet. I would also change how the boys get lost. Instead of the boys crash-landing on an island by plane, they will get to Mars by being in a space shuttle that crashes. They would crash on Mars in a place with a forest and a mountain. However, they would not be stuck on an island. Instead, they would be stuck on a peninsula. Also, in the scene where the Lord of the Flies is talking to Simon, I would change the pig's head on a stick to a boar's head. This way, the Lord of the Flies can seem more ferocious. Another thing I would change about the story is that instead of the boys making a fire to be saved, they try to fix the message-sending device found in the crashed space shuttle in order to send messages to nearby space shuttles. However, because space shuttles only visit Mars from time to time, the boys must make sure that the message-sending device must be working at all times.

8. I would change the title "Lord of the Flies" to "Alone on Mars" for my movie because my movie is completely different from the original movie. One difference is that the original movie takes place on an island, while my movie takes place on a different planet. Another change is that my movie takes place in a future farther away from the present than the future of the original movie. Because these changes are major changes, my movie wouldn't be the same as the "Lord of the Flies." So, my movie should have a different name.
