    Cheesiest premise you can think of written extremely well

    Discussion in 'Word games' started by rktho, Mar 10, 2017.

    Use your premise as the title (ex: Dragons vs. Aliens)

    Then write something you would actually read for purposes other than humor and enjoy.

    Remember, this is NOT for cliches. This is for utterly random things that make you think, "Why would someone ever write about this?"

    Ideas:

    Bunnies With Lightsabers (Oh, yeah, try to do it without connecting it to Star Wars)
    The Big Fight Over Cake (With, like, five to seven armies all going at each other over cake)
    Fire Hydrants: A Political Thriller With Inanimate/Immobile Objects

    Are we allowed to nominate other stories? I think A Modern Myth fits your criteria pretty well.

    No, you're writing your own and giving it a title based on the premise.

    Premise: Cibernetic Vampire Sorcerers from Space.
    It is the compelling story of a small family, struggling to survive on a planet overtaken by these demonic beings who have swallowed the world in eternal darkness and enslaved the human race as cattle. An epic journey of love, sacrifice, and finding meaning in a world full of chaos.

    Detective hired to find a missing spoon: (Which is also a family heirloom, and the only one which survived from the Armenian Genocide. Add the fact that the thief was a cousin, to who the spoon was actually supposed to pass, and the drama goes over nine thousand.)

    Premise: A world run by cows
    A world where cows run everything. The cows have fields of just grass to harvest for all the cows to eat and the main issue of the world is to work out what to do about all the methane that the cows are producing which is causing global warming on their planet.

    Premise: Volume 2 - Cows in space
    After the world is destroyed by one match, the cows set out to find a new planet to inhabit. Having finally being able to put their methane problem to use, the cows travel through space by farting. They find a small planet in a galaxy far far away named 'Earth' which is inhabited by cow-eating humans.

    They probably were able to discover this resolution before the planet actually exploded, the cows testing it in space were then propelled by the explosion through space to the galaxy containing Earth.

    Or maybe it was a moohoosive coincidence.

    Premise: Cows, the Prequel

    After a recent flair of mad cow disease, scientists figure out a way to splice cow DNA with that of a cockroach, making them immune to the illness and, to their horror, nearly immortal.

    This is epic.

    There could be an entire saga. Put the box set on the shelf next to Plant of the Apes!

    Funily enough, some of the most successful works can be described as this, depending on how you phrase it. The buggest example I can think of:
    Guy dresses as a bat and beats up people
    A war breaks out after a beauty contest
    A car that's also a time machine
    A police box that's also a time machine
    Magical land in a wardrobe

    Next up, Cows (Rebooted). This time taking a different angle altogether, focusing on alot of action and incorporating a cheesy and obvious love story instead of the genius and hilarious political and social satire that was the first movie. Needless to say, it will have mixed reception at best, the fans will hate it, but will gross enough money for the studio to make a freakin franchise from it.

    Brilliant!

    Next thing you know there will be so many spin offs and other books/ movies coming out all about cows. Here's a few of them:
    Cow Diaries
    Moo-light, New Moo, Ecowlipse, Breaking Methane
    Cows vs Goats
    The Cowbook (will bring you to tears)
    A few good Cows
    The cow father

    The list goes on.

    Chairs with Fangs. A horror where people are being devoured alive, by demonic entities posessing their own house-furniture.
