I have an Excellent Idea! Let's change the subject!

-The March Hare from Alice in Wonderland

Ok, so here's a summary of what's up so far. Categorized. A few more ideas I've added. Everybody's admin, I think, so feel free to edit this post and just add things right into the categories, or continue to make separate posts - either way, really.

Here goes.

Plottish ideas*****************************************
send in the clones: the clones get sent to a destination
Jingles ends up trapped in the past and must be rescued
Jingles travels back in time to prevent something... and fails
Flashbacks
Desert shots from Lawrence/ Jon crawling through sandbox
Shakespear soliloquy
Much Ado About King Ben's guard
Matt singing
Errol Flynn movie clips
Scottish drinking music/ drunken singing
A wee prologue
Jingles' mentor
Revelation of why Jingles is called Jingles the Pirate
Epic group battle scene
King Ben plays chess with his clone
Motif music for each character
Father Benedict drinks his clone under the table
We discover Father Benedict has actually been chugging turpentine or has been dilusional about the effects of the drink, and it has been water all along or something - kind of like a placebo drink (sugar water)
Everyone duels with his/her clone
Clone King takes over and the Real King must be rescued
The clones must be destroyed or captured and set to work making doilies or something
Jingles has 3 or 4 clones
Jingles is reluctant to answer the summons this time and it takes an attack from his clone(s) to convince him
A music video of the cast, in costume, playing some originally composed music - this can be during or after the end credits or something
Outtakes/bloopers during ending credits (of course, many bloopers will doubtless be shown during the main film as well, but this could be extra footage not seen there)
An Entr'act or Intermission or whateverit's called - perhaps short - perhaps egregiously long
A Dance something like in the Mask of Zorro or A Knight's Tale - it can be the setting for some quiet discussion between the main characters and maybe the Dance is interrupted by a battle or there is intrigue going on in other rooms than the main dance hall - like in The Scarlett Pimpernell - Dances are good settings for mystery and in-treeg
