Bitcoin Bank Robbing Movie

[FinShaggy]

This will have to come after my book, but it does have to come But since it will come from the book, it will be Bitcoin funded
Let me know if you are interested.

I want to make a bank robbing movie, and John DiMaggio (Bender from Futurama) has to be the brains.

So I got the idea when I was in jail a few years ago... Someone just put the idea in my lap. I was in county jail for 11 days and this guy was in there for robbing banks. He explained how it works, and explained how he had robbed like 10 (It was in 2010 I don't remember the exact number). And it was like the most CASUAL thing in the world, like ANYONE could do it. Movies make bank robberies seem WAY harder than they are.

So, I don't want to tell everyone how to rob a bank here in this thread, but I will discuss the plot of the movie.

Main character and friend get busted for some small time, big crime. Like a pound of weed, or a bottle of pills or something, not just a DUI. Main character takes credit while buddy is his eyes on the outside, keeping him up to date on everything. So main character gets a lawyer and starts the case. While he's in jail, he meets John DiMaggio (an old school bank robber) who tells him how everything works, and basically schools him in exactly what to do (It's really SO SO simple, the explanation is like 30 seconds literally). One thing I will explain, is no masks, use makeup to change your features so that they don't even know who to look for. If you look up "How To Make Your Makeup Look Like Drake" there's a chinese girl that can literally make herself look like drake, and you would have no idea that a Chinese girl just took shit down.

So main character has his friend on the outside make a business to use as a cover, which is really the hardest part. Because if you don't have a way to get rid of the bank bills, then your walking around with evidence and have to flip it for crack or something. So the business gets going, and main character gets out to a small start up that he half owns. They get everything together, and they go to rob their first bank, but someone else LITERALLY robs it first while they are inside, and the other robbers get arrested because they do EVERYTHING John DiMaggio said not to do. So they watch a few guys get arrested, and have to give their eye witness accounts with guns in their waistbands.

Then they go back out, and they do it right. They are able to hit 3 banks in the same evening, and they put it into the business, expecting to never do it again, but... They realize they can't stop, at first they just realize they are both thinking about it, then they start bringing up ideas on how to perfect the "method". So now they start taking out dye packs (which takes an entire step out of the robbery) because they can spot them now, and other small things that decrease their chances of getting caught. As well as hitting the armored vehicles for more money.

Everything seems perfect, and like they will never get caught... Then John DiMaggio starts getting questioned, as his old roberries were the same as the current ones, and the police are thinking its a copy cat. But he offers to help them catch the guys in exchange for his freedom...

So that conflict can be the plot of the rest of the movie, or the second movie depending on how long the first part takes. John DiMaggio could also be the lawyer, and suggest bank robberies is order to pay him. Then go to the police to make more. Instead of being a prisoner, but it works either way.

But this movie would basically be the point break of out generation, showing you "not to go for the vault" and stuff. But even more detailed than that.

With this method, robbing a bank is only a little harder than ordering a meal at a fast food restaurant. And even after the movie comes out, there's no way to prevent anyone from doing it. I'm not saying that this movie is meant to make people able to rob banks, I'm just saying a good bank robbing movie should make people walk out of the theater wondering if they could pull it off themselves.

Basically, a good bank robbing movie should give you Stockholm syndrome.

So in this movie, bitcoins will be stolen from the bank?

I think he meant that the movie will be funded with Bitcoin?

I like the idea of "everyone can do it". It helps putting yourself into the character's shoes.

i got the same impression XD i can see it an hour of some sweaty fat ass in a dirty white vest typing on a laptop getting sweatier and every so often reaches down to have a bite of his greasy sub sandwich... some of it falling onto his top and leaving great streaks of mess and then he jumps up the chair falls over and hes stolen bitcoins... the end
now to pad it out to make it last an hour XD

I would imagine a more Hollywood-esque approach.

Bankrobber 1 & 2, both wearing Guy Fawkes mask & suit. Bankrobber 1 keeping the people at the bank in check, Bankrobber 2 sitting at a laptop, copying files onto an USB stick that looks like an AM Block Errupter:

Bankrobber 1: "Hurry up man, we gotta go!"
Bankrobber 2: "I still have to download the Blockchain... 4 days of transactions to go... 3 days... 2 days..."
Bankrobber 1: "Screw the blockchain!!! Just grab all the private keys you can and dismount the miner!"
Bankrobber 2: "1 day... DONE!"
Bankrobber 1: "GO GO GO"

Bankrobber 1 & 2 head for the escape vehicle, cut.

Also, one of the bankrobbers is Brad Pitt, the other some underdog newcomer.

No, it's just a bitcoin project.

Exactly. Most bank robbing movie try to come up with some intricate ploy to blow everyone's minds, like putting the same clothes on everyone or going in the vault from underground.

I want to blow everyone's minds because they think "Dude, we could totally do that".

Yeah, that wouldn't be such a great movie. "The Greatest Bitcoin Heist in History" (Title sequence ends, camera pans to fat guy picking nose, before he flicks it and scratches his ass) "MOM!!" he yells up a flight of stairs "Can you bring me a sandwhich!?"

[FinShaggy]

And on an unrelated note, I have been watching FXX and they have little "bumps" like Adult Swim, but they write them themselves for now, and they are really funny. Like (I don't remember exactly but something like this) : "It's like riding a dragon to the movie theater, and getting free tickets while ice cream pours grape juice in your diamond pimp cup".

So I made one of my own:

[FinShaggy]

I just had a cool idea. Remember how in requiem for a dream how they would snort coke and it would do the quick little scene where the put the coke on the table, roll up a bill, suck it up their nose, then their eyes dilate, all in a quick sequence? Actually, there is a gif I can show you.


I want to make the robbery sequence like that, once we get the characters into a routine. Once the audience knows how it works, and needs no more explanation of how the robberies are happening, show like 4 actual robberies throughout the movie, then the rest are all just gifed.

[FinShaggy]

And BTW, the original robberies really will blow everyone's minds. No one ever imagines that robbing bank is really this simple, and no one ever believes me when I start a sentence with "I can tell you how to rob a bank and get away with it" but once I tell them, they agree that it makes total sense. And it does, it's really not much harder than ordering a meal at mcdonald's. But then the later robberies will be a little harder, because once they have money they can afford fire power and to bring friends in. So at that point the vault becomes an option and stuff. Because the only reason to "not go for the vault" is because the police will get there by then, and you have put yourself in a situation where you take hostages or take a bullet or a sentence. So if the vault is open (most banks keep it open during the day from what I've seen at the banks I keep my money in), and you have enough fire power, it's a different story. You just don't want to clean it out, because that will 1. Take to long 2. Be too much to fucking carry out of the bank

But I still haven't even given anything important away. If someone were to steal my ideas and make a movie with what I've stated so far, it might be good, but it's not going to blow anyone's mind. The original robbery method is what will blow everyone's minds, before it gets better. Then the better stuff will just make the audience feel like they are getting smarter.

I don't want to sell it, I want to MAKE it.

[franky1]

I don't want to sell it, I want to MAKE it.

in other words  he will ask for thousands of bitcoins and then this is what finshaggy's skills and experience will give you for production value...

walk around with his webcam pretending to be a mobster. he will make a pretend jail cell out of cardboard boxes, much like how we made dens and playtents as kids. he will put a black silhouette of a person (cardboard box cut out and painted black) and use a desk lamp to make it look like a shadowy figure. and then edit in voice samples of 'bender' from futurama using microsoft movie maker and alot of youtube futurama clips.

he will stick a car steering wheel to his bedroom door, paint it silver and pretend its a bank safe.

he will put it on youtube for free and then keep all the bitcoin..

I have never asked for money, and I'm not asking for it now. The charity I made never asked for money, we stopped doing it because my step dad bailed. And I never asked my stepdad for money, HE asked ME to create a charity on my 11 year old brothers death bed, then backed out and on top of that was a COMPLETE DICK.

I never said I wanted money from him, I said I wanted him to be NICE or I would call the police about my little brothers wrongful death. I did call the police, and my stepdad has since gone to the county mortition and gotten the records changed. They originally told us peanut butter killed him, my mom even said "The mortition proved it" and my step dad went out into the darkness for like an hour, and said he was waiting for a bear to eat him. But that original ruling has been changed, and now says that asthma killed him. Which isn't false, but its not the original cause. I just can't go to court about it.

But again, I never asked for money. He OFFERED money, to a charity HE asked to be made. Then withdrew that offer, period. I never attempted to blackmail anyone, I simply asked my stepdad to quit being a dick to me, or I would file a report that NEEDED to be filed. When I called the police and they came, they were baffled that it was the first they had heard of it. And I am not trying to make the charity happen, as I don't have money and I don't blackmail people.

[FinShaggy]

So basically, I'm not here for your money.
