Title: Breach
Log Line: An aspiring FBI agent Eric O'Neill is handpicked to work for renowned operative Robert Hanssen within information assurance, a new division created to protect all classified FBI intelligence. The young trainee develops a growing respect for the arrogant uber-agent, only to find that his mentor might be the nation's most dangerous security risk.
They already had a biopic about this guy on cable or regular TV. This is going to be a $40 - $50 million dollar movie that nobody will pay to see. This kind of stuff is better left to books, not the big screen.
Oh, well, I'll save the "I-told-you-so's" for opening weekend.
Title: Notorious D.A.D
Log Line: A superstar rapper loses everything and is forced to take a job as a nanny for his accountant's kids while trying to resurrect his music career.
Oh, God, this sounds bad. Sounds like an even worse version of The Pacifier. I can see it making some money, though. Lots of idiots out there with $10 to flush.
Title: The Last Lap
Log Line: True story of Mike Leonard, a Chicago-based feature correspondent for NBC's "Today" who dropped everything and rented an RV to travel across America for a month, taking his funny and eccentric parents to see the places and people who shaped their lives. Following them in another RV were Leonard's three grown children, including a daughter who gave birth at journey's end.
This sounds like a total snooze. A road trip movie in an RV. No thanks. Doubt this will ever see the big screen.
Title: Untitled Lana Turner Project
Log Line: Based around the romantic Hollywood relationship between movie star Lana Turner and gangster Johnny Stompanato.
Another period biopic. These almost never do any money at the box office. This should be a HBO or cable movie, not for the big screen, but with the stars they have attached, it's going to the big screen. It will flop, however.
Sounds more suited to a book than a movie.
