From The World Of What The Hell?!
“Okay, now here’s the pitch…” is an article from the LA Times presenting questionable loglines for movies that sound less than promising.
Example:
Snakes On A Plane: An assassin targeting a witness in protective custody unleashes a crate of poisonous snakes inside an aircraft.
Starring Samuel L. Jackson. No joke.

Damn it! I got all excited when I read the logline for “Freeze Frame” … but it’s one of the fakes! Can someone please go write this screenplay? Can I write it? Do I have to buy the idea from the LA Times?
