Run — don’t walk — to your keyboards and enter the final Save the Cat!® Logline Contest of 2009!
Let’s end this year with a big meow!
All of you Cats are invited to join STC!‘s final contest for the year. To enter, use the STC! rules of a well-written logline to rework the logline of a well-known movie and turn it into a Holiday classic.
Examples:
Now that summer’s over, Sheriff Brody must play Santa Claus to bring in those holiday dollars, but he must first capture and train a man-eating great white shark to pull his water sleigh. (Santa Jaws)
Or:
Chucky learns the true meaning of love and forgiveness when he finds himself in the Land of Misfit Toys. (Child’s Play)
Or even:
I’ll Be Back for Christmas
The Cyborg returns from the future when a paranoid Sarah Connor kills Santa Claus by mistake when he asks John to sit on his lap, turning the future into a Humbug world.
It’s that simple!
Keep your loglines short — try for no longer than two lines. The original movie must be universally recognized, and the rewritten movie must be clearly made for a Holiday release. Contestants may place multiple entries, but each entry must be separate. No grouped entries, please. Please include the title of your “remake.” You may alter the original title if you wish, as long as we can determine the original source (see Santa Jaws).
