This morning Jordan Ruimy sent me a screen capture of a half-interesting movie idea [after the jump]. I’ve re-worded it and used a shot of Back to the Future‘s “Biff” for an illustration, to wit: “A late 1950s or early 1960s high-school bully (like Sam Rechner or Oakes Fegley in The Fabelmans) is somehow transported into a 2022 high school or college — an institution teeming with diversity, Tik-Tokers and trans kids.”
Okay, cool premise…then what? The idea is basically a spin on those Rip Van Hippie scripts that were making the rounds in the ’80s.
