THAT GUY’S A MANIAC: THE MOVIE

Screenplay
By

Ray Cortana and Hugh V. Brown

PART 1 EXT-SAN FRANCISCO 2026
An American high school of the future. Flying cars drop children off at school. Some of the children arrive by jetpack. The children are wearing androgynous silver boiler suits. Some of the children are playing sports in the background with “virtual” equipment. All of the buildings are covered in white plastic. A futuristic alarm sounds and the children run to class

PART 2 INT- CLASSROOM

Children enter the class room. LEON, a tall boy, sits down at his desk whilst chatting to SHARONA. MR. FREEMAN enters the classroom slamming the door behind him. The children go quiet. MR.FREEMAN writes “Digital culture 101” on the Holoboard using a futuristic Wii controller. He then writes “Resident Evil” and underlines it.

MR.FREEMAN
Okay, who can tell me about Resident Evil?
LEON looks hesitant and raises his hand
MR.FREEMAN
Leon. Please enlighten your classmates
LEON
Resident Evil was a series of videogames released in the latter part of last century. This was before the antiviolence in media laws were passed. The games were low quality and ….
MR FREEMAN
You kids today have no idea! To illeviate this glut of ignorance you have a new assignment for this week on top of your other work....
The class groans
MR FREEMAN
This week's assignment is to write an essay, the title will be "that guy’s a maniac why’d he bite me?"
MR.FREEMAN writes “That guy’s a maniac why’d he bite me?” on the holoboard
MR.FREEMAN
I want you to find out everything you can about the "low quality" Resident Evil series, there will be a test tomorrow. And I mean everything people!

CUT TO THE SOUND OF THE SCHOOL FUTURISTIC ALARM
PART 3 EXT- CLASSROOM
LEON, SHARONA and other children gather outside the classroom. A boy flies past wearing hover boots.

LEON
This assignment’s such a crock.
SHARONA
I think it’s kinda cool. My dad is always going on about the 20th century videogame revolution...
LEON
It’s a crock! Mr. Freeman is always setting us stupid essays on all these old games. They’re not even immersive 3D.
SHARONA
I’m going to get some lunch you coming?
LEON
No. I’m going to the library start this stupid assignement.
SHARONA
Okay. Catch you later

PART 4 INT-THE LIBRARY
A futuristic school library. There are no books, only holographic work stations. LEON enters the library and walks into on of the holographic work stations. He removes a futuristic Wii controller from his bag and opens up a holo window. He types “Resident Evil” onto the holoscreen with a number of quick wrist movements. He then scrolls down a list and looks unimpressed. He pauses, sighs and then types in “That Guy’s a maniac why’d he bite me?” into the holoscreen. Fewer results come up. LEON still looks unimpressed and starts to scroll down he clicks on a file which is an exact match. The camera focuses on LEON’s face through the holoscreen, the black background of http://www.thatguys.co.uk/ can clearly be seen in the foreground. LEON scrolls down the page. The camera focuses on his face. As he reads, his lip starts to quiver and his eye starts to twitch. A look of disgust begins to cover his face. The camera then zooms into the “T” from the title of the page he is looking at

WRITTEN- “20 YEARS EARLIER”
PART 5 INT-A GENERIC OFFICE
The scene opens with the same image as PART 4 ended. The camera zooms out to show that we are no longer in the future but in a generic office in 2006. CUNZY11 is staring at a lap top screen, clearly deep in thought. He then types some words on the keyboard and sits back. After a pause he smile. He pulls out his cellphone and dials a number. He puts the cellphone up to his ear.

PHONE RINGS
RICHIE can be heard on the other end of the line
Alright dude!
CUNZY11 Trys to speak quietly as not to alert his coworkers
Hey, we’re on google
RICHIE
Really? Where?
CUNZY11 smiles wider
Yeah, just type in faecal abortion

QUICK CUT- CUE OPENING TITLES
