==== Repo Team Movie ====
Concept is while you think its a repo team, its criminals stealing cars in costumes. Where the Audience only finds it out near the end.
The Idea being Everyone Dresses as New Jersey Repo Agents as their Costume, wherever they are.. (or Instead.. London Repo Agents.. ) each with ear pieces, that are connected. Each repo, becomes more and more complicated, making it funny, how are they gonna talk their way outa this. Things they worked out before walking up, as well as on the fly. They should even have planned distractions if needed..
I'd like Original Fonze, maybe Him talking harder than what would have flown on tv. If you ask him to do the voice, He does it like hes a totally different person. Its really cool.
Really, i came to the idea of the movie just for Henry. I want a thing where the kids watchin.. wanna talk like the Fonze after. .
I think anyone that has seen him do the impression still, would be LOVING this Movie.
WE need to see their home lives, at the open.. individually.. and see how some seem to leave for different jobs if you really look at the things in their lives.. Some have logos on the car.. they then take off.. after getting to the repo team meeting point.
That could be forgotten one time.. each repo would be they plan to steal a specific vehicle.. for a unknown reason.. but show up like its being repo'd then argue with the person, while the team steals it, then drive away.. never to be see again, as their costumes then change.
So Some of the Repossession Team Lives the WHOLE time in disguise, and others might not be known to their families?? Their Wife might even think its legit.
They need to Have multiple ways they case places to find what to steal, that we see.. and see what really is the reason for the theft.
Where robbing and casing joints, kinda seems like their second job. There could also be ones that Work at Hotels, and at Service Places, or maybe they even all work together as a catering company. But they need a place that they make contact with rich people.
First Job after Open: Might be, driving up to a persons place to repo their vehicle, and explaining how they haven't paid their bank. . and its this many months late, and were taking it. AND they are like.. NO.. We Have Paid this Off Full, What Do you Mean.. And we see them communicating with the base operation.. Its fake, its the person outside, and they tied all their headsets together as a intercom.
We hear them give dates and figures.. and then tell them.. NO.. you have not. and we hear them tell them the amount last sent and Date, over the headphones, and all this info.. and address..
And then, lets say, They pull a gun.. HEY.. Hold On.. A.. And Then the Team is like.. Maybe we have the wrong house, I think we have the wrong house.. we were sent to the wrong house Boss.. ..and leave.
Then come back and straight steal it, but it looks like a legit repo... The audience is sure they are right.
Other Times Shown, need to have them ask base things, and base answering back with messed up answers... base answers them, with funny answers to fuck with them, and they always make it seem like the victim is the problem. (Its the person outside in the truck.)
They could try to lift the keys from the people without their knowledge while inside, and have code words over the intercom to get a person to come too the door, to hand off keys to each other. As well as abort words, and a say they cant find them keys, figure something out, word. Either abort or figure something out.
With banter that mixes you up, getting you laughing.. and then in the crazyness of the situations, they are stealing their car, each time it going differently. Looking the whole time like a legit team of repo agents just getting the job done.
SO that gets a heartbeat going. The Audience unaware of they are stealing cars the whole time is the idea. "Like 6th sense, oh.. they were stealing them is why that.. oh. that means that each time was fast talking on their part.. oh.. thats funny.. a reason to watch it back a few times."
If the victim doesnt see the car being stolen.. they point it out as the repo trailer is leaving.. HEY, Are You Getting Robbed...?? I'll call the cops.. runs to their car.. pulls out the phone.. inside.. turns it on.. pulls it forward, while yelling.. HELLO.. 911.. and then blocks the driveway.. and hops back out to talk to the victim, as the go between with 911.
Then, while still on 911... goes back to talking about where they were talking about inside.. Selling a Product, or service like a door to door salesman. With a New Invention.
If the person picks up their phone, they try to get it hung up in time.. While the truck gets away..
Then they leave, before the cops are about there, saying they dont want a ticket for being double parked. Taking their time.. while blocking their driveway .. often keeping them, from giving chase, then asking if they want to still buy the product.
"So a FOR Sure Yes..?? i'll come back.. im double parked .. i gotta go. "
Repo team is a better title, but "double parked" makes you laugh later about the name and each situation.
The Talkers Each Time should have a contest on how they get to saying "Im double parked.." before walking out the door. Where Each time the idea is to block the driveway after pointing out their were just robbed.. often as walking out and getting in their car. . then they block the drive.. and make up some more..
LONG TERM, kids will make up funny things to say on their own to their parents, with double parked. SO the commercials could be kids doing that, using lines not in the movie.
The Idea would be, all movie it seems like they are just a comedy troupe of bad repo agents fighting with hard to deal with, and at the end, we realize they were stealing cars the whole time. At Work, Each Person is living their Disguise. All the Same Theme.
They do different things often to the victim.. each time, putting on a disguise over their repo outfits. So you still think they are a repo team the whole time.
They should travel back to home . To not be drawing the heat in their home towns.
They ALSO need a system with check downs, for where to hide the car, if this happens, they set this up, and it has this back up, if this happens, they have this set up, and all these things worked out like one of their wives wrote this up for them, that if you recognize there is structure to the checkdowns, you see her design.
There could be a Flatbed Truck, (they refer to as the Karate Kid Shower Costume) that has One or Two Curtain Rods around the top, Each being a rod with two disguises, they can pull around it. The Outer one, with a BOX Truck Panel Design , that Only Straps to the bottom of the flatbed after pulled around, to make it look just like a BOX truck. Then they put a magnetic logo for the box truck company on the door, they keep behind the seat, in the cab.
Then they either have a second costume for the truck, like a second box truck design.
OR.. they Have on this curtain rod above the flat bed, built the rod where it goes all the way to the front. Where if they park the front against brick building, they made a curtain that is bricks.
With a evenly weighted bottom, to be less affected by wind. SO they drive up, park it quick ..the front of the truck against the building, damn fast pull out the curtains, pull the plates, and Leave. Taking the plates that have quick releases, but look like they dont, as they leave...
One side the Curtain is wolven to the rear, and the other side is the box truck costume side, and there is a gap at the curtains.
We could see cops discovered that gap, and tow the truck, with stolen car on it. .. where they loose the karate kid truck.
Then the joke becomes who wants to go bail the truck outa jail??
Leading to the Chase Next Heist, cause they didnt have a good plan without the truck.
Lets Say They Set up a Tent that looks Really Close to Brick Wall, even better than the truck, and the wind blows it off the covered vehicle and the people in chases, recover it.
So like, two in a row, they lose.
Then the audience, if they are thinking about it, would question why they wouldnt just get the truck back.
Into a Few Going Well... and the Movie Ending with a Gone in 60 Seconds Style Chase. Where They Seem to Be on the Run, at the End. Hands Up.
