FIRST SEX AND THE CITY THE MOVIE COULD FRIENDS THE MOVIE BE NEXT


FIRST SEX AND THE CITY MOVIE NOW MAYBE FRIENDS THE MOVIE?



In about a month the "SEX AND THE CITY MOVIE" will open. If its a hit don't be surprised if Warner Brothers pushes for a "FRIENDS REUNION MOVIE".



See if Warner Brothers makes a "FRIENDS" movie that would drive up interest in the TV show again. The DVD Sets would sell again big time to an all new audience. (Yes believe me there is now another audience available for the show) In fact upcoming college freshmen were only 4 years old when the show debut in 1994. They were only 14 when the show ended. Most of this audience did not watch "Friends" when they were growing up.




The cast has always said "NO" we don't want to do a reunion. However there is a good chance that a "FRIENDS MOVIE" would boost all of the actors careers.




I am sure that the cast will once again stick together all want to be paid big bucks! They did when the show was on the air! They became famous for another reason! The cast bandded together. In a very surprise move! They all did stick together and by the last year the show was on they were all getting paid $1,000,000 an episode!



Now if a movie is made I am sure the cast would all want $10,000,000 each. That's too much. Before the screenplay is ever written thats $60,000,000. They would also need to pay for a screenplay. They need an A-List Director (That adds millions)
So before the camera roll, up front cost could be almost $70,000,000 for the cast and director alone. This does not include production cost which would be about another $10,000,000. There is also marketing cost (that's another $25,000,000) Thats over $100,000,000. So the studio needs to find a way to keep the cost down.



I am thinking that Warner Brothers could pay them $5,0000,000 each. Plus give them all 1% pf the first dollar gross on all products related to the "FREINDS MOVIE".



The director should be Betty Thomas who did a great job directing "The Brady Bunch Movie" and "The Late Shift".



Now I think the movie needs to be a kind of prequel and sequel to the tv show. When the show ended Monica & Chandler moved. However the apartment was the main set used for the show. Somehow we need to get the apartment worked into the movie. The coffee shop and Gunther need to have a part as well.



Now as for the main storyline for the movie? Well I think it would be great if it center around Chandler turning 40! The 2nd story could be Phobee fighting with her in-laws about how to raise her child. The 3rd story could be Joey finally getting great reviews for "Naked Biys Singing".
