After Earth Pitch Meeting

so you have a movie for me yes sir i do and i already have will smith attached to it oh yeah yeah yeah and his son jayden oh okay oh come on sir don't react like that he's the best actor for the job but we haven't auditioned anyone yeah no i know but will smith assured me he's the next big thing in hollywood sounds like a pretty intense case of nepotism well i'm pretty sure their health insurance will cover that what i just think people love will smith movies you know and with jaden there it's like two smiths for the price of one it will be nice to see that signature will smith charm on screen well actually his character's whole thing is that he's stone-faced and has no emotion whatsoever oh kind of feels like that'll take away from the fun of a will smith movie well this way we really give jaden a chance to shine can jaden shine i guess we'll find out sir okay anyway so this is going to be the story of a super successful famous guy and his son who's not as talented but the whole family wants him to follow in his dad's footsteps yeah agreed 100 no sorry that's the story of the movie oh it is it is sir it's a sci-fi movie called after earth and humans have left earth to go live on another planet okay and will smith is gonna play this guy called cipher rage pretty sure i just unlocked that character in mortal kombat but then aliens are gonna drop these monsters called ursas and these things are specifically bred and designed to kill humans that's not good yeah but the thing is these things are blind but they can smell the pheromones that humans release when they're afraid they were specifically bred to kill humans but the only sense they have is that they can smell fear can they smell blood no just fear so if you can manage to not be afraid you're invisible to them it's called ghosting okay but how do monsters move around in the environment without any senses i don't know but they also impale humans on trees as a way to make other humans feel fear how do they even know that the trees are there trees don't get afraid no idea sir but anyway cypher rage he's very good at ghosting so he's kind of a big deal oh so he could straight up walk around and shoot them all that's pretty cool yeah you'd think so but for some reason in the future they only used these cutlass blade weapons seems like a gun would be a whole lot more effective yeah but then these monsters wouldn't even be a threat really so why don't they so the movie can happen oh okay gotcha anyway so his kid could tie he wants to be like his dad but he's just not as good you know he can't even ghost okay and later they're gonna be on this ship and it's gonna end up crashing on earth that's where i live same here sir so cypher rage and his son they're the only ones who survived the crash out of the whole crew well what are the odds of that oh i have no idea sir i've never been good at math to be honest or science or writing doing things is hard yeah so they both survive but cipher has two broken legs you need those to walk exactly you do so now katai he has to find an emergency beacon in the tail of the ship which is a hundred kilometers away okay big journey but also one of those monsters was in a cage on the ship so that's probably running around free that's not good and so cypher explains to his son that you know everything on earth has evolved to kill humans oh it did yeah pretty scary right when did when did that happen in the past thousand years i guess pretty sure evolution takes longer than that well debatable also if humans left how did things evolve to kill something that's not even there oh sir i'm going to need you to get all the way off my back about evolution because this is the whole premise of the movie we're talking about okay let me get off of that thing thank you sir so ketai takes off but his dad he's going to be able to talk to him and see him the whole time that'll come in handy yeah so ketai is out there and almost immediately cipher detects an enemy approaching on the radar uh-oh and it turns out to be a baboon so cypher is like you know don't move at all well well thank god he has his dad in his ear yeah yeah yeah so katai throws a rock at the baboon and then the radar lights up and it turns out there are a bunch of baboons welcome those didn't show up on the radar as they were approaching like the other one unclear oh sudden baboons are tight yeah so katai's gonna have to run super fast cause the sudden baboons they're pissed very exciting and he's gonna get away but then he's gonna get a parasite on him and he's gonna turn into will smith and hitch and then he's gonna have to inject stuff into his heart and he's gonna pass out oh okay yeah no i mean i guess that can happen too it will well okay then oh also i forgot to mention that there's not enough oxygen on earth so katai needs to use these little capsules to stay alive cause like humans destroyed all the trees and stuff no there are just a ton of trees it's basically a jungle don't trees produce oxygen i don't know i guess they evolved did not produce a lot so humans would die and what about the animals they're okay with the lack of oxygen yeah they're fine with it because they also evolved in the past thousand years i truly feel like that's not how evolution works also the temperature drops to below freezing every single night and all the animals they're cool with that too well there are these hot spots that don't freeze every night so you know katai has to make his way to one of those every night well won't those spots be crowded with wild animals somehow no they won't be well okay then oh also you know that thing where movies have like a single flashback but they break it up into little tidbits and spread it out throughout the whole movie oh we're gonna have some flashback tidbits we're gonna have some flashback tidbits it turns out that katai had a sister who was killed by a monster but he was safe because he stayed inside a little glass terrarium thing so if they block off the fear pheromones the monsters leave them alone that's right so do they make themselves like hazmat suits so the monsters can't detect them oh that would have been a good idea but instead they make suits that turn baby blue when you're cold why would they have a suit do that well to let the person wearing it know when it's cold cold lets you know when it's cold and so will this suit i guess that's helpful anyway so at a certain point katai ends up breaking some of his oxygen capsules and his dad finds out oh so what does he do well he's like abort mission son come back to the ship but aren't they both gonna die if he doesn't get the beacon that's right yeah so he's telling his son never mind come back and let's just you know straight up die that's right yeah interesting strategy but then katai jumps off a frickin cliff and gets picked up by a cgi bird oh okay and then the bird tries to feed could tie to the baby birds and then some big evil cats show up and katai fights them but all the baby birds they die sure you know those things may as well happen and then later katai is going to be stuck out in the cold and the birds going to show up and keep them warm now the bird protected him because he unsuccessfully protected the babies yeah maybe it makes sense for a bird to do that anyway then the bird dies what why well because of the extreme cold which it has not evolved to survive now you're getting it sir i truly i'm not anyway finally katai finds a beacon but then he's gonna encounter one of those fear monsters oh man could be tough to battle a blind fear monster i bet actually it's going to be super easy barely an inconvenience oh really yeah pretty much out of nowhere he decides to become completely emotionless which is maybe a nice message for this movie and you know that works like magic well well thank god the monsters have literally no other senses to go off of yet things really worked out for the rage family and so they both survive they do and then they see some whales because we mentioned moby dick a couple of times in the movie so what do you think well i mean it sounds like he won't be doing much but if will smith believes in this movie i mean i don't think it can fail [Music] hey guys ryan here thanks for watching that pitch meeting i hope you liked it if
