-"Funny" sunglasses (NOTE: these must be the kind that hipsters wear, instead of the kind that hipsters cruelly mock people for wearing)
-'70s/'80s sneakers (adidas; New Balance... British Knights?)
-Maybe their pants can be "quirky" but not in a specifically retro-kitsch way. Blue plaid, maybe.

That sounds a lot like the costumes we're expecting for our Bollywood Disco Funk party next week.
British Knights!

Put "Let's Spend the Night Together" on the soundtrack...


BUT use the David Bowie version from "Aladdin Sane."  It would be great for the obligatory Plunko & Quarter Do New York montage with sped up footage, handheld shaky camera and whirling lights.

How about an entire soundtrack of Jock Jams? Like the list from "workout magazine" (or something) discussed in depth a few weeks back? House of Pain and Gary Glitter* and such? Irony fans would love that.

Yeah, imagine if three years from now we all saw a publicity blitz for Plunko that seemingly came from nowhere?  Screenplay credited to drug-free and retired-from-porn Joanna Angel.  I blame future Laurie.
Oh, good heavens. I didn’t realize. I send my condolences out to the rest of the O’Connor family.

All we need to do is shoot it in Jersey City and Hoboken and get three establishing shots of them in Times Square or something.

...or they could visit Williamsburg to take their local team to the kickball regional championships, but then they get turned off by the rampant alcoholism of big-city kickball.

Or, to get his job back Quarter gets sent on an errand by his boss to the other branch at Coney Island. Plunko and Quarter lament Coney Island's demise, appealing to the anti corporate demographic.

I just read this whole thing, and it stops at Feb 20?  Someone better start cracking the whip here...  We gotta get this thing made.

Sounds like the script is getting close to nailed down. What do you need from me?  I can help out with plunkomovie.com
