The Movie Rewrite for “Point Break”

The Movie Rewrite for "Point Break"

Did you ever wish the movie “Point Break” ended differently ?

This one is for the late great Patrick Swayze,and the current great Little Patrick, which is the little head on the left.

Let’s take it right from the point where Keanu has Patrick Swayze handcuffed. Patrick was urging Keanu to set him free so that instead of being caged, he could catch that once in a life time wave and die with dignity. Keanu for a moment, recalled a Morgan Freeman movie where he said, “ Some birds aren’t meant to be caged. Their feathers are just too bright “.

He realized then, that if ever a saying was relevant, it would be right here with Swayze, the man who lives, breathes and thrives in nature. So Keanu lets him go and Swayze starts walking towards the wave that would inevitably take his life. While walking towards his end, he gets hit with an epiphany that will turn this whole thing around for him. Swayze asks Keanu, please hear me out. Patrick says with passion, we all the know the term “ Surf and Turf”. As at matter a fact, Keanu said i just had that for dinner last night. Well Keanu, how about I create “ The Surf and Work Program “? So at least if you want to be a professional surfer, you will also have to learn a sense of responsibility. Kind of like the Co-op Program at Northeastern University. You go to school there for a year, and then you work for a semester, and so on and so on. This way when you graduate, you already have some work experience.

This was groundbreaking thinking that changed the face of surfing forever. This was finally a way for surfers to purse their true passion, and not have to create mischief to make a living.

Surfing was no longer about “ Dude, lets catch some waves “, It was now, ” Lets do some work, so we can surf later.” Patrick Swayzes surfing program (Surf & Work), became such a hit, that now Patrick has to teach thousands and thousands of newcomers, how to balance on a surfboard in the water.

One day a very famous Director named Emile Ardolino from Hollywood came to take surfing lessons. He was so impressed with the way Patrick Swayze moved his body to deal with all the waves, that he asked Patrick if he would be interested in trying out for a New Movie. Patrick said “100 percent yes”. So Patrick tried out for Emile Ardolino’s new movie “Dirty Dancing”. In an instant he got the part. He was a natural after all the bobbing and weaving over his years of being a surfer. Patrick accepted the offer as long as that the Producers would hire Kate Bosworth, from “Blue Crush” could be his dance partner in the new movie. The director agreed. Patrick officially turned a very negative start, into a full happy life. A major life lesson was learned here.

The End. Movie still would have been great.

Did you ever wish the Movie ” Cast Away ” ended differently ? This is a Quick and Must read;

Welcome to the Movie Rewrite of “ Cast Away “ This Rewrite is truly an Advanced Imagination exercise. It takes our brains and throws them on a treadmill.

Here we go. So we all remember Chuck (played by Tom Hanks ) was a high strung Federal Express employee when it came to work, almost obsessed if you will. During the Christmas Holidays, Chuck heads to Malaysia in the middle of a bad storm for a business problem. His family was very displeased needless to say. We all remember what happens next, the plane goes down in the middle of Pacific Ocean, and Chuck is the only one that survives thanks to an inflatable life-raft. From there he ends up on an island completely alone other than the “Volleyball “Wilson,“ his soon to be best friend.

Let’s relieve some of chuck’s pain right away. Now if we all remember Gilligan’s Island from 1964 and the crew that was lost at sea after a shipwreck. Being Chuck’s plane went down in 1995, that gave the Gilligan Crew 31 years to become experts on how to live off of uninhabited land. The shipwrecked crew from the 1960’s saw Chucks plane go down and witnessed the island he floated to in his life-raft. They approached Chuck who ended up on an island right next to them and invited him and Wilson to join them on their island.  Chuck happily accepted. So right here, that removes all those trials and tribulations and loneliness that Chuck had to endure. As months went by, they decide to kill some time learning to play volleyball with Wilson.

Despite the fact of being stranded in the middle of the ocean, the friendships became peachy keen. Now, if ever you were going to be stranded on an Island you would hope the year was 1995. As it happens, a gentleman by the name of Kevin Costner skillfully lived on the water itself in the movie Water-world. He also witnessed the plane going down and knew where to find people if any survived. So when Keven Costner and his big Water contraption approached the island, the Gilligan Crew and Chuck were ecstatic. The Water-man invited the whole crew on his Water Traveler and took them all back to shore.

For Chuck, only 6 months had passed, he didn’t expect much to have changed. But upon his arrival, he learns his wife ( Helen Hunt ) started a courtship with someone else. That someone else just so happened to be the “Mr. Big “ character from the cable show “Sex and the City” When she learned of her husband still being alive, she broke it off with “ Mr. Big “ immediately. As we all remember, Mr. Big always had a wondering eye and the Helen Hunt relationship was just one of his affairs. So Mr. Big heads back to NYC to reconcile things with his wife Carrie Bradshaw played by Sarah Jessica Parker

Now, back to Chuck ( the Tom Hanks character ), he and Helen Hunt were like peas and carrots once again.

After Chuck shared his 6 months of what is like on the island with Wilson and the Gilligan Crew, his wife said; “ All of you should start a Volleyball team and compete professionally. That hit Chuck like a ton of bricks, he knew it was his calling. So him and his wife called Maverick and Goose from the movie “Top Gun“ to train this new team all the fundamentals of volleyball. We all remember what experts they were playing volleyball on the beach and all in 1986.

Needless to say all the ducks were aligned for great success. The Wilson Volleyball team went on to win the National Championship and The Olympics. At one of the Award Ceremonies, Chuck ( The Tom Hanks Character ) gave a speech that left people mesmerized. The first highlight from the speech was a reference about his time on the island. His quote was; “ I know what I have to do now. I gotta keep breathing because tomorrow the sun will rise. Who knows what the tide could bring “ referring to his time away from home on the island. The Second highlight was when he held the Wilson volleyball up and yelled out “ WIiiiiLSON.

The End….. The Movie Still would’ve been great.
