If They're Going To Do It With Myst... | ||

...Why not with Marathon also? I'm talking about the article today at The Adrenaline Vault about the Sci Fi channel announcing a 4 hour mini-series based on the legendary game Myst (to be aired next year). Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Myst was released originally as a mac-only game? I remember reading somewhere Myst used the (then) revolutionary hypercard technology, which was made by Apple. Part of the article says: "...the crew uncovers an ancient civilization that existed beneath the surface of the Earth for thousands of years..." Hey, Sci Fi executives: I know a similar story that involves discovering the secret of an ancient civilization (among many other things) and it comes from another legendary mac game too! Wanna read my script? ***START OF A FRAGMENT OF THE MARATHON SCRIPT***
INT. CRYO LAB
A man in green uniform come out of the darkness and run toward the group of survivors.
Engineer Walker put down his gun trying to get a good look of the man.
MAN IN GREEN UNIFORM
CU of security officer Eddings expression. He smells something fishy.
ENGINEER WALKER (O.S.)
Engineer Walker jump over the barricade and runs to meet the man. The rest of the survivors scream at him to come back.
ENGINEER WALKER
MAN IN GREEN UNIFORM
The man in green uniform enters a well lit part of the lab. Now we can see him clearly: he looks like a normal person, except for his EYES. They're RED and reptile-like.
Engineer Walker notice this and STOPS, but it's too late: the man in green uniform EMBRACES him and EXPLODES.
LEECH THE HACKER
Jennifer screams out in TERROR and began to cry.
ANOTHER man in green uniform jumps out of the darkness, followed by ANOTHER man wearing the same uniform, who's followed by ANOTHER man in green uniform, and so on. They're countless. And they all head to the same spot: the barricade.
Janitor Perez hugs Jennifer. There's no hope in his eyes.
We see the bullets ripping through the body of one of the men in green uniform. Yellow blood spills out of the wounds and he EXPLODES. The explosion causes the man next to him to explode too and this originates a CHAIN REACTION. Arms, legs and other body parts fly all over the place.
Then: silence.
And we hear:
Security officer Eddings turns around.
SECURITY OFFICER EDDINGS POV: another horde of exploding men appears behind them.
Everyone jumps to the other side of the barricade and run away, except security officer Eddings. He raises his assault riffle and -- CLICK -- he's out of ammo.
Security officer Eddings hurries to take out his pistol, but the men in green uniforms are too close.
