Okay, so I've been messing around with this idea for a week or two now.  Remember, this is in the very first stages of preproduction so things will change!  I'm mostly posting this here so that hopefully, it will get a few people wanting to watch it.  I've been having trouble lately with actually finishing the movies I start, so with people knowing about it there will be a little incentive to finish it.  I have no idea when I would finish or how long it will be (yet).

I don't have much of a storyline yet.  There are a few certain scenes I know I want in it, but I don't know the main idea yet. 
It'll go something like this:
There's a large corporation/government that is tyrannical and evil, but the people can't do anything about it because the corporation/government is too powerful and they...let's say...get rid of anyone who opposes them.  I think the co./go. will be producing something that helps keep the people down.  Either some kind of drug to keep them oppressed, something like the Extremis 'virus' to give the baddies extra strength, or even just extremely oppressive treatment. 

So then there's this guy Insider-Ian who works pretty high up on the chain of evil people.  He's always tried to help the people behind the scenes but he can't do much in his position.  So he goes out on the street and meets with this guy Biker-Bob who has a small "team", Driver-Dan and Techie-Tim, that are very good at what they do.  They have to stop what's going on. 

It's set in modern-day times, I'm thinking, and the bad guys have plenty of underhanded soldiers/guards. 

A few of the scenes I know I want are: something where people are escaping on an airplane, a big shootout in the main location for the bad guys, a dramatic injury/death (?!), a scene where one of the good guys gets captured and betrayed even(?), and a few others.

So here's the characters (these are all temporary names)

Here's the good guys, from left to right:
Biker-Bob(main hero kinda, tough, he's a fighter, rides a motorcycle), Driver-Dan(main driver, he's the guy who can drive a van, car, fly a plane, pilot a boat, anything. He's also very strong), Techie-Tim(extremely computer savvy, he's a total techie), Insider-Ian.

Here's the leader/head/president of the main evil corporation/government, Evil Eric:

Here's some of the generic bad guys (sorry for the bad focus on this one)

So, yeah.  That's what I've got.  I plan on the genre being action/drama, I guess.  I'd like some intense action scenes, some dramatic scenes, and some scary scenes. 

Please let me know if there's anything you think might fit in to this story or that you just think would look really cool.
I'll be posting updates in this thread once I have more of a basis for a story.

I might be interested in having someone help with the screenplay if they've made a story kind of like this before.  Or if you've had experience with action brickfilm, whatever.   

Thanks for your time!
