Sorry for the delay. I worked a double last night lol.
As I said before, The title would be Exodus. The basic story for the film (which needs to be fleshed out more) would be similar to an older scifi series called Earth 2 and Terra Nova. Earth has less than 50 years of useable oxygen left. The Greenhouse effect has run ramant and is no longer reversable. The arrival of a mysterious object dubbed "Probe" transmitting coordinates of an exo-planet is dubbed a miracle and a religion is formed with Probe as their God. A message was decoded from the transmission written in what appears to be latin. The message says "Contact lost, What is your situation?" The flightpath of Probe was tracked and it is discovered it was on route for 10,000 years. It is decided that this planet is the only hope for humanity's survival so a colonization program is launched. Cyrogenics has been perfected and is now common place for long duration space flights. The first mission (the one the movie is centered on, using possibly a DGIV or XR-2) is launched 1 year ahead of the colony ships (XR-5's or Arrows) to make the first landing and prepare for the arrival of the colony ships. During reentry (as with almost all scifi movies and series lol) something goes wrong and the expiditionary ship is forced into a crash landing. The crew survives but the ship is completely destroyed. At first the planet is almost like an eden. Flora and Fauna are very similar to earth's. Ruins are dicovered and it appears that the senders of Probe are long gone. The ruins seem to be blasted apart. A day passes and there are no signs of hostile life but the crew cant shake the feeling of being watched. Primitiave shelters are constructed and food gathered. That night the crew is awakend by an explosion and discover the a massive crater outside the shelter. While they are investigating they begin to hear a hissing and turn to see a green, tall, four-legged creature approaching them. Not sure what to think, a crew member approaches and finds out the hard way what made the crater. They take off running through the woods.
I need to work on the story more tonight while I'm at work. I'm planning on adding exactly what happened the sender's of probe (ancient humans who we would call atlantieans). The story would continue through the fight to survive, the fight against the creepers, and the constuction of an outpost for the arrival of the colony ships. What do ya'll think so far?
The title will be Exodus. Ill post a basic plot line when I get off of work and see what yall think. I think it would be a great community project. I have the full Adobe CS5 Master Collection and software to compose original music for it.
