replace Mike and Shorty with Bill and Ted; and subtract a few things; and YOU'VE JUST RIPPED OFF A MOVIE FRANCHISE!

Trust me, it'll be different. One thing is how Mike gets the time machine. What happened was a professor (in the 1950s) made the time machine and his assistant tried to test it. But he didn't close the door, so the time machine went nowhere. The assistant got out, and the professor told him that he had to close the door. He closed it and the time machine went away, but with no one inside. It travels to the present day, where Mike's car konked out and he forgot his cell phone. So he uses the phone booth. The first few episodes will be a just-exploring-time thing like the franchise (exept the historical people will be fictional). But it will transition into a more on-a-mission type like Dr. Who.

Funny how 2 similar ideas are thought up completely seperate from each other.

Not literally dead, just no longer interested in Lego or animation.

Re: Doctor who series.

Doctor Who...

I hate it when people abbreviate it...

Anyway, I'm just polishing up the first script, and then I'm going to start on the second one.
When the second one is complete, I will send those, and a ton more info to my co-writers for critique, and so they know what they're dealing with.

Haha! I'm very happy at the moment. mini/smile

I've just completed the first draft of episode one and I'm pleased with it

Re: Doctor who series.

remember the Doctor regenerates and comes out different, so just have the same aliens(or make new ones) the tardas, and 'The Doctor' but make him act as YOU want

Re: Doctor who series.

Not to sound stupid or somethin' but why do so many people like Doctor Who that much? I just don't simply get it.

It's a very.. Unusual show..

I'm not sure why I like it, but I do.

It's fair enough if you don't though, everyone has opinions.



Anyways, the scripting is going well, the characters seem to write themselves in, which I think is a good sign...

I just need one more script and then I'll send them off to some people, and they can write their own.. mini/bigsmile

Re: Doctor who series.

Wakey wakey threadie. I am really excited about this series. I hope it will be made since you have been working on it for a year.
Are you gonna have the classic Time vortex intro with the music and the TARDIS flying around in it.
I love those intro's and it would be cool if you had it in the series but it is quite hard to make that and have your red LEGO TARDIS in it.

Yep, it's still in production, and I'm fairly sure I will complete at least one series, hopefully more.

I'm currently writing scripts.

After TOY, I will send the scripts I have to my co-writers, who will then give me feedback (If they feel like it) and write there own.

Or they'll say "This is complete crap Brickyman, seriously..." olol.

And yeah, the title sequence will contain my TARDIS flying through the vortex which I will hopefully achieve with greenscreen.

Glad to see you're interested. mini/wink

Re: Doctor who series.

EffectsLab Pro has a Doctor how title scene preset.

Re: Doctor who series.

Sounds nice, if you ever need another co-writer or someone to help out with anything then I am pretty sure I will have time for that in the future.
