3. Would it be a live-action film or animated? Why?

Live action... not sure anyone would want to animate some of the stuff.

4. Casting: who would play you, members of your family, friends, etc?

Me, i'd love to have Alexa Davalos... she plays Gwen in 'Angel'. Perfect attitude ;)
My mum would have to be someone really funky, Michelle Pfeiffer.. they share the same birth date and they look alike.
My brother would be... ummmmm.... cant think of any good male teen actors. Bah.
Sister... probably the girl from the Ring only shes a touch older.
I couldnt even go there for my friends, they're all too unique. Though Lee Evans might be able to do my best friend Richard.

5. Describe the movie preview/trailer.

Weird... uhhh.... very short, bunch of flashes showing snippits. Then someone saying something cool at the end ;)

Weather and terrorist alerts... much better than oral sex any day...
The Sims is a most excellent game. I didnt discover its perks until only a few days ago though when one of my sims died a horrible firey death in a house fire caused by lighting the chimney.

This of course gave my brother and I a flash of inspiration. Killing Sims for fun. So we shut them in rooms and made them start fires and they burnt alive. Amusing. They get little gravestones and then we discovered at midnight the ghost of the dead sim will come out and haunt the place, scaring the poo out of the surviving housemates.

This inspired further madness and we have now built what we call the Sim Death camp. A large mansion type house full of various rooms in which Sims can be trapped and die in fire, starve to death or drown.
It has a reception and two employees and is quite hystericlaly funny although incredibly disturbing.
Now while this isnt the idea behind the Sims it does make you wonder which programmer came up with the idea of making an all ages game in which killing people in a mass genocidal kind of way was possible. And the firey deaths and starvation is actually quite traumatic.

I'm not sure if I should be scared or amused.

However, it does pass away insomnia filled nights. And making Sims out of people you know and hate and killing them in a way you could never hope to in real life without getting slammed in jail and made somebodies bitch, is definitely an attraction.

Mabe this is a new idea for a game, "The Sims; Death Camp extension pack" murder your sims in a variety of amusing yet disturbing ways.

A worthy �34.99 if ever I spent one.
