One line pitch

The whicker lesbian!

Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the litter tray, Paws!

Fartopaclypse 2012!

I've no idea what this thread is.

Should I be moving it to Critique or not?

I think it's supposed to be suggestions for fictitious films explained in one line.

Ahh, I see. Carry on! Don't mind me.

Sorry was bored and in a rush.

One of the skills its fun to practise with pitching is the one line pitch. Can you pitch a whole film or series in an intriguing way with a single sentence?

Time was you posted a time wasting thread on BCG and it would be filled by lunch time.

Now it's all cats and cynicisim.

Bah Humbug!

Shepherd making no money decides to go into the confectionary business using some of his favoured ingredients.

I think I get it. I'll have a go:

A partially reformed paedophile decides to give back to his community by opening his own nursery with disastrous results!

I think C4 would commission a pilot. Frankie Boyle could star in it.

He was a paedophile cannibal, she was a bulemic TV chef, together they're bringing up baby!

There's a tornado heading for the sewer works, looks like its going to be a shit storm!

He would do it, he would be the worlds biggest tweeter, he's untweetable

I think the problem was that two of your first three examples weren't really one line pitches or Taglines

He's Northern & he plays video games
T'Ron

They're all one line pitches.

(wanders off into out darkness grumbling about the good old days)

Ok maybe 2 of them were
One was just a title

A title can be a pitch.

How will you ever sell your Shakesperean tragedy set in a gay brothel run by an Indian cannibal?
