Unfortunately, the way the film industry operates, it is not condusive to accepting any film ideas from the outside world. One must have an agent to even start any dialogue with a movie production company.
As a result, very few films have any originality.

Nice article, well written, Doshka!

Hollywood has out of ideas. They did a good job with Aeon Flux & Hitman. They need to team up with WWE's creative & writers.
