Flee the Facility Pitch Meeting

Step into the pitch meeting that started Flee the Facility!

Script
* Flee the Facility spoilers ahead!*

* The doors of the office have the Warner Bros. logos on them.*

Executive Producer Guy: So, you have a ROBLOX movie for me?

Screenwriter Guy: Yes sir, I do. It's based off of the game Flee the Facility.

Executive Producer Guy: Oh, you mean that game where you have this hammer thing and you try to hack computers and run away from the beast?

Screenwriter Guy: Yeah, yeah, yeah!

Executive Producer Guy: Isn't it gonna be weird when the Beast just runs around and destroys stuff? I mean, he's a man with a hammer.

Screenwriter Guy: Well, we can change it so that the Beast is a literal beast and it is instead attracted to the POWER of the Hammer of Justice.

Executive Producer Guy: So what kind of "beast" are you talking about?

Screenwriter Guy: Well, imagine if one of the Calots from John Carter had a baby with a grizzly bear.

Executive Producer Guy: Oh God, I can't... you're putting weird images in my head!

Screenwriter Guy: Oh, whoops!

Executive Producer Guy: Whoopsie!

Screenwriter Guy: I was also thinking we could make this the start of a cinematic universe.

Executive Producer Guy: Oh, cool! Did you take any time to set up, like, the next five movies?

Screenwriter Guy: Um... no, I sorta just decided to make it enjoyable as its own thing.

Executive Producer Guy: But this is a cinematic universe backdoor pilot, you know!

Screenwriter Guy: Ah, you got me! I was just joking!

Executive Producer Guy: Oh, really?

Screenwriter Guy: Yeah, this movie's FULL of setup!

Executive Producer Guy: So what do you have in mind for them?

Screenwriter Guy: Well, we're gonna have a scene that sets up Broken Bones, we're gonna have another scene at the end credits that sets up Neon District, we're gonna tease a direct sequel like crazy, and we're even gonna have a security camera scene that pretty much teases the future of the cinematic universe.

Executive Producer Guy: Wow wow wow wow wow!

Screenwriter Guy: So it starts out with this guy named Jack Morgan discovering the Hammer of Justice which just happened to be in his backyard!

Executive Producer Guy: Why is it in there?

Screenwriter Guy: Because!

Executive Producer Guy: Fair enough.

Screenwriter Guy: So then he's gonna bring it back to a museum, but then the power gets unleashed and he ends up destroying most of the museum and a nearby cave!

Executive Producer Guy: Uh oh!

Screenwriter Guy: So then we're gonna see this guy named Elijah Ross fire a bunch of people and get angry that Jack isn't at the facility that they work in.

Executive Producer Guy: So this movie LITERALLY takes place in the facility?

Screenwriter Guy: Yeah yeah yeah!

Executive Producer Guy: That takes away all of the stakes.
