No action film is complete without a car chase complete with vehicles crashing into rivers and surprisingly stacked empty cardboard boxes. Could you achieve the same with shopping trollies?

Brilliant Millsy!

I'd incorporate some famous lines...

"Well punk, do you feel lucky?"
"This could be the start of a beautiful friendship"
"Out of all the bars in the world and you had to walk into mine"
"Feel the force"
"Asta la vista baby."
"I'll be back"
"Here's looking at you kid."

female lines
"If you want me, just whistle. You do know how to whistle don't you? Just put your lips together and blow"
"Come up and see me sometime"

Attatched is the outlinbe with the to be spoofed clips. I aim to rehoot all as close to the original as poss with all dialog about dairy products.

I like a challenge - less than 3 weeks until the film night...

Or what about...

The Six Million Dollar Milk Carton...

Pasteurised, homogenised and slightly past its sell by date.

Gentlemen we have the technology, we can prevent it from going off.

(Saw Michelle Ryan as the Bionic Woman on tv a few nights ago, sweeet and not a tracksuit in sight!)

Or...

He came, he saw, he purchased dairy products.

Or...

LACTOSE INTOLERANT II

This time he takes out the dairy section. (String vest optional)

Other movie titles along a shopping theme...

Sleepless in Sainsbury's

The Full Morrisons

There's something about Morrisons

Crouching Tesco, hidden Dixons

Last of the Sommerfields wine

Asda Ventura, plastic bag detective

Tesco 3, the rise in the price of mince

Jason and the Argos catalogue (thanks to Harry Hill for that one)

Meet John Menzies

Being John Menzies

Default cliche

I think walking in slo-mo to the store in your black suite/white shirt/black tie and ray bans to the tune of Little Green Bag will open your short up nicely.

Have a look at Swingers and spot the homages all going on in there.

Maybe a line where some stick up punk is asking your milk shopper 'whose your daddy?' only to be disarmed by our carton carrying hero and sucker punched with the line; I am your father.

Robocop must have some scene stealing value, certainly it has a shed load of quotable lines.

Thank you for your co-operation.
