All ads should be the actors in the show ( in character) trying to sell you whatever the ad is about.

Just watched a show where one of the ads did this. Honestly it was a good idea. We stopped fast forwarding the ad to watch it.

Let's have parties where we all make a feature-length movie in twelve hours with limited camera / lighting abilities, then we showcase it in the movie theater the next day.

42 Upvotes

First four hours: write script

Second four hours: film movie

Final four hours: edit / polish movie

Obviously there will be snack breaks in between. Whether or not we include those as part of the twelve-hour process is to be determined.

I have limited knowledge about filmmaking by the way.

Edit: I've been informed by some people that this already kind of exists - the 48-hour film festival. Good to know!

Chopsticks that double as nutcrackers

Upvotes

Don't you hate when you want some delicious shelled nuts but don't want to get your fingers dirty or use a single-use kitchen item? Introducing Nut Stix™. They hook together at one end so you can get leverage to crack the nut, then you slide the hook out and use them to eat the delicious nut meat.

I made an illustration. They would need to be metal, blue was just the color I happened to pick.

Investors? Could be you.

Slides

From every floor. Yes, build giant poles with slides, use expendable slippery fabric/material for sliding Use wheeled dollies if necessary. Have a slide off every building, every 5/10 floors (depending on the number of floors in the building).

Humans can build skyscrapers and overpasses - they can build durable slides don't tell me fairytales.

Reverse Waterfall Supertrees at Gardens by the Bay – App-Controlled Scented Mist Sky Sculptures That Cool the City

1 Upvotes

Hear me out: What if we built a reverse waterfall system on all the Supertrees at Gardens by the Bay? Giant pumps shoot scented, colourful mist UPWARDS in swirling patterns that form temporary sky sculptures you can control with an app. During the day it acts as massive public cooling mist for the whole Marina area, and at night it turns into a free light-and-mist show that reacts to music from nearby events. Singapore literally turning the weather into interactive art. Bonus: the mist carries tiny edible flower petals for people walking below. Wild, right?

All these scientists keep trying to figure out how to harness the power of the sun, or how to make gas cleaner. What we should be doing is figuring out how to use the waste products of our bodies to fuel our society. Think of all that hair people grow and just cut off? DARPA should be working on a formula to use hair to power homes and go karts and what have you. At the very least, we should be doing something with all this urine. Come on.

Air Jordan 2.0

3 Upvotes

I love Air Jordans since i was a kid, last week I saw some in the Nike store and I picked an AJ5 to check what has changed from the original. Apparently nothing has changed and it's still as heavy as steel toe boots. So why not recreate the whole AJ line using lighter material. AJs are famous for their design but not for playability or even stylish strolling. I think Nike will sell a ton of these shoes instead of seeing them on clearance.

Laser tag but you get an electric shock to the nuts

7 Upvotes

Laser tag is great but getting shot does nothing. Airsoft or paintball give bruises, you might regret it afterwards. I know some type of "taser tag" exists, but it's often a shock on the wrist, which is kinda boring.

What if players (I assume men in this case) wore a device that would give a small electric shock to their nuts when they are shocked? It would be exciting to put your manhood at stakes in the game, I bet it would be perfect for a bachelor party for example.

Pet-Human Swap Parks in Singapore: High-Tech Role Reversal for Better Empathy

8 Upvotes

Living in Singapore as a 19-year-old, I was walking my neighbour's dog near East Coast Park when it hit me, what if we created "pet-human swap parks" where animals and people temporarily trade roles through safe, high-tech harness systems and AI translators?

Dogs get to sit on benches with treats and "command" their humans, while people (wearing knee pads and safety gear) chase balls on all fours or follow scent trails. The AI translates barks into encouraging words like "Good human! Faster!" or turns human speech into tail-wag instructions.

These parks would help us understand our pets better, reduce stress for everyone crammed in tiny HDB flats, and feature Singapore-themed zones like "mystery spice scent hunts" using local herbs. Parks could include timed sessions, vet oversight, and easy-clean areas. Everyone leaves more connected, empathetic, and happily exhausted.

Has anyone else daydreamed about wild empathy-building concepts like this in Singapore?

Most have had Cows milk or Goat Milk but what about Dog Milk or Pig Milk?

While disgusting to imagine, cows milk is pretty disgusting already.

What are your most absurd movie idea that you think people would be interested in?

5 Upvotes

I’ll start, because as a history nerd this has been swimming in my head for the past few hours and then more I think about it the better it seems on paper

It takes place sometime around the 1610’s, after the fall of the Aztec Empire, primarily in colonial Mexico.

The main characters consist of

The disgraced son of an Aztec Nobleman

A Spanish Jew fleeing the inquisition

An escaped African slave

And a katana wielding Japanese samurai

The plot of the movie is essentially an Indiana Jones/Mission Impossible race-against-the-clock style spectacle hinging on our 4 protagonist meeting through unlikely circumstances, teaming up against a common enemy, and hunting down a potentially cursed Aztec relic that has major plot importance, all while competing with the Spanish inquisition, a Chinese crime syndicate, and Caribbean based pirates.

It would have a tone similar to something like “Indiana Jones”, with a focus on pulp fiction and swashbuckling adventure, with undertones about the true history of the wrongdoings of the Spanish empire during this time period, primarily told through the 4 main characters each having been affected by the Spaniards in 1 way or another.

The title?

“Once Upon a Time in the New World”

Everyone should donate to me to make me a millionaire, to see if it would actually happen.

9 Upvotes

Why not? Just a few dollars each to make a random dude you never met a millionaire. I dont think it can happen due to most people's unwillingness to give to people they dont know, and just the overall mistrust of other people on the internet. But hey, its an interesting experiment, and if it does work, i can test if money does buy happiness. I wont post a payment method, unless enough people are actually interested in trying it.
