In the time before time, when movies had rather simple concepts they were still rather original, as there was no history with movies, everything was new.

Not now. You want to make a western? There are hundreds of them already out there, what will make yours better?

Another movie with vampires? Well I've already seen enough of these, no thanks.

But wait - what if we combine them...

A movie set in the Wild West, with cowboys. The girls at the brothel start to go missing, the cownoys blame the Indians. The Indians are having their young girls go missing too. Cowboys and Indians scrap for a bit, then fight together against Western vampires. Best movie ever is what you have there.

So it's quite simple, we take two themes, and throw them together. This has been done with the major genres for years, with your romantic comedies, and action adventures,. You like Spies? You like Kids? Hence 'Spy Kids' but has anyone ever dared to throw ninjas into a murder mystery? "I can finally reveal the identity of the killer...it was the ninja dressed in black over there" *points* "Oh no, he's getting away, he can jump really high and scale walls! After him!"

It's easy really. You want Christmas sentiment? You want horror? Then you just have to see 'Nightmare on 34th Street'. When a young girl sees a figure dressed in red in her dreams she things that it's Santa, coming to re-unite her parents. Much to her distress it's Freddy Kruger, carrying the decapitated head of her mother." Starring Robert Englund and Richard Attenborough.

Hollywood is getting down with this idea big time. Take 'xXx'. Combining Xtreme sports with spy like activities. Vin Diesel may think he's treadign new ground here, but wasn't Keanu Reeves surfbording and skydiving as an undercover FBI agent long before? We need more daring combinations. Sports movies can be excellent. As can zombie movies. So why has no scriptwriter though of this and penned a tale of corruption in the major zombie football league. Surely it would be a hit?

Well how about pirates then, they're cool aren't they? Some people refer to people that sell illegal copies of movies and games and stuff pirates, and they're usual associated with hackers and the like. Hell, there's a movie that writes itself. A group of sea faring pirates enlist hackers to help them raid a ship containing huge quantities of gold. Excellent.

Any other movie combinations you'd like to see?
