Fistful of Steel
Writer: Glenn Fredric
Logline: A bored android cowboy is impressed by other's revovlers, he gets his own and finds out it's harder to be cool that he first thought.
Characters:
J-1M: A bored android, he's looking for something to do, and is easily impressed. Though not the smartest, he tries to emulate what he thinks is 'cool', but is very self conscious. He communicates in vocal cues rather than words, akin to BB-8 and R2-D2 from Star Wars.
Setting:
Who: J-1M, and other Autonomous 'Cattle-punk' androids in the wild west.
What: A 'cattle-punk' android cowboy
When: 1850s era spliced with 2050 (autonomous androids)
Why: The old west is a time when things were a bit less controlled, shooting a gun for testing is common out the back of shops, guns aren't licensed, towns are small with many out on ranches than living in town.
Where: T-24-D5, a town in the west.
Outline:
Act 1:
Establishing shot of the town. Camera (J1M's perspective) is bored and is looking around for something of interest, and catches on to two 'cowboys' walking away, their guns glinting in the light. J-1M's eyes glint, and he knows what he wants. He goes to the gun store.
Act 2:
J-1M comes out of the gunstore, gun in hand, waving it around with pride, spinning the barrel and all. Across teh road, the sheriff of the town rests against the town jail, J-1M quickly stands up strait and holsters the gun. Waves awkwardly to the sheriff and walks out of town.
Act 3:
J-1M gets to the edge of town, and after scouring the terrain with his eyes, he sees in the distance, a tumbleweed stuck against a rock, a perfect target. J-1M starts to try to hit the target, but thinking the drum spin has nothing to do with it. He fails to fire a bullet, 'click click' getting more frustrated and adding more bullets doesnt help. Finally he fills the last slot in the drum with a random bullet found on the ground. He Aims, he fires, and explodes.
