Summer Fun Issue: Wish List?

[Alph]

Hi. I've been gone for quite some time, and, come to think of it, when I was here last, I was pretty much the lurker. Anyway. It's good to be back?

Read some tangents in the WWC & UberSIP threads, and found myself snickering at the idea of a StarWars/SIP Parody Thingie.

Snickering in a *good* way.

So, in the grand tradition of Hypothetical Movie Casting and The Soundtracks In Our Heads...

What would *you* like to see parody'd/crossover'd in the now traditional summer fun issue?

Anyone?

No hesitation on this one...Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Just like Terry, Joss Whedon is a creator that isn't afraid to challenge the status quo, create fun and entertaining female characters, intertwine comedy/drama/suspense in such a way that the lines aren't very clear.

I think Katchoo as Buffy, Franchine as Willow, David as Xander, and Tambi as Faith would be absolutely the thing to make this fanboy's brain explode all over the page.

that is perfect! I wouldn't mind seeing a Pulp Fiction parody... or maybe the wizard of Oz? Francie as Dorothy, David as the Tin Man, Katchoo as the Scarecrow or the Lion, even tho' she's got a working brain and heart. Maybe Freddie as the Lion... as Tambi as the Good Witch Glinda! Isn't that just broken?

[Darth Fett]

well, that would make MY brain explode....not in a good way, mind you.... I know there are tons of Buffy fans here, so again I'll voice my lone dissent. That would just basically be a cross over, not much parody. Sort of a fan fiction what if kinda thing.To be honest, after the last one, I'm kinda hoping Terry doesn't do one this year.....
However, I believe I was the person who posted about Star Wars, so I guess I'll have to stick to that.Kat Solo, Muffins the Wookie, Princess Francie, Darth Femur.....one condition tho-Nobody gives David 'whinny' Skywalker a lightsaber....(But Darcy, I was going into Toshe Station to pick up some power converterrrrsssss!*whine*)

heh.

Hmmmm, I love the Wizard of Oz idea. And the Star Wars one. How about a Peanuts parody? Or X-men one (i know we've already had a superhero one, though)?

Also, an X-files one could be fun.

my perfect cross over?! sip/xena. no contest.
oh wait... thats already been done!! nice one.

For a fun summer issue, I'd like to see Katchoo Francine and David just lounging around somewhere (beach, couch, whatever...) daydreaming and talking about what they think the perfect day would be. One could start, and while they narrate we could 'see' what they where describing. Then one of the other characters would break in with a "Oh! Yeah! And then..." or a "Yeah, just like a..." and the tale would warp as the other person's ideas got jumbled up with what they where originally talking about... It could go back and forth between them. I see lots of great possibilities... *BEG*

Of course, I realize there's an excellent chance that no one has ANY clue what I'm talking about... Sorry, it makes sense to me. But then again, I'm working on my seventh Coke today...

BTW, Happy New Year all! Best wishes for the new milenium... Melinium... Millineum...

Uh, can one of the Star Wars fans help me out on my spelling here?

[dogbowl]

I'd be happy with a Paradise Too II on the side, maybe a nice melon for subscribers, which would keep the plot rolling.

Or, another flashback to those cheery halcyon days of the beach, touch football and hoagies, which all seem to take place in the void between issues 12 and 18.

I'm still holding out for a miniseries about the year before Volume I.

[Mibbitmaker]

I know what you're getting at, choovanski. There's a Japanese movie called Roshomon, which I haven't seen myself, but which many TV shows have done their take on. (All in the Family did one of the best ones. There's also a MASH sequence where Frank is charging Hawkeye with mutiny where they use that idea.) That would be an excellent idea. Imagine Freddie's take on some event from their lives! The same event recalled in each character's POV differently would be perfect for Terry's bunch!

[Katchoo]

I like the way Choovanski thinks
However, I also like the Pulp Fiction and Wizard of Oz ideas, only because I think that it would be easy to typecast, and would probably turn out funny as hell.
