Ok, so this just same to me out of the blue as a plot to a movie based on JII. Let me know what you think...
Frank Simpleton is an average guy. He works as an advertising executive and never comes up with any new ideas. For fun, Frank works out at the gym, talks with friends at the same pizza place and goes home to watch TV and go to bed. In short, Frank's life has no imagination. That is until one day, when Frank bumps into a mysterious stranger who tells Frank he knows what can make his life exciting again. Frank meets with the man known as the Dreamfinder, who, along with his trusty sidekick Figment, decide to try to help Frank discover the true wonders behind using his imagination. It would have to be done at least partially in 3-D so the colors can literally pop out of the screen. The idea with this is to capture the essence of the original attraction to create a whimsicle world that is unlke any other seen in the movies. I think if done right, it could be an absolute smash hit film.
Oh, and in terms of casting, I would love to see Robin Williams play Dreamfinder. I can totally see it... I'm actually considering trying to write a screenplay for this, so if you have any suggestions in terms of plot or any little ride homages you'd like to see in the film, let me know.
