I've written an apocalypse film. It's sort of Gattaca meets the anti-thesis to A Brave New World meets 2001. We see the run up through the eyes of the man thats trying to stop it, but we also see the post-apocalytic view.
No it was a really small indie film, might not have been directed by a woman anyway.

It was done very well a couple of years ago (1998). It was a Canadian film called 'Last Night', directed by Don McKellar. Check it out - it's a great little film.

I liked Deep Impact, cause the asteroid actually HIT the earth!
<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">WAR OF THE WORLDSBut i thought.. imagine if this was a film, and showing the events building up to the end of the world (kinda like armageddon, deep impact) and what if the man who made the discovery actually hoaxed it! (i know it would never happen obviously) but it would be a cool film :S sick but cool...
Anyway...
I had a dream that my cat was licking my balls. Then I woke up and saw my cat running out of my room.
The best film about the apocolypse is 'The Nine Lives of Tomas Kats'. That's some funny shit.
"Tell me your name."
"No."
"Is that your name?"
"Yes."
Oh, just watch it.
Yeah that's the film I was thinking of. Now to find it on DVD.
"Miracle Mile" was quite a decent apocalypse flick, which didn't have the budget for spectacular SFX or Hollywood A-list actors.
But back to 'dreams'...
I used to write them down immediately after waking. Had a little pen & notepad right by the nightstand. But that was back in my college days, when I didn't have to immediately run-off to work in the morning.
Some of my better dreams were nothing I'll EVER have the opportunity to have put into screenplay format, much-less produced as a film (too many FX & scenery-changes involved). I had to settle for putting them in comic-book format.
I don't think it was a waste; the day might come soon when 'more-realistic-than SouthPark' animation becomes available to anyone with a PC, and the comics used as storyboards.
