ok heals the deal. im not going to bore you all with details, i am making a short film and i have an idea and i want feedback before i start the writing process.now most stories i read are loosely based on some kid who is depressed and kills himself, mine is a little different..do read.

The idea: a teenager attends school, at school he gets extremely abused by others because he is considered to be a "nerd" or "loser". now this student cannot take much more of this so instead of seeking help from the teachers etc. him and his friend decide to revolt and use vigilante tactics to take down the bullies, they are smart and the bullies are stupid so they dominate this.

now i cant find a way to end the movie, i want to have good twist like say; his friend isnt real and his friend is the one who talked him into doing all this. or another ending could be that towards the end of the movie they are seen as bullies to the other students, kind of some sort of irony. or it was all a dream...hahaha only kidding.

so tell me what you think ...give me some feedback good or bad i can take it.

Thanks alot guys...

Your first ending would probably be seen as a ripoff of Fight Club. The second is more worthwhile, I think, and easier to translate to the audience.

I'd go with the second ending too. The idea being that after conquering the injustice, the protaganist has, by doing so, become the injustice.

Otherwise, it'd be a drama or melodrama.

maybe you should rethink the whole idea, have you ever been "made fun of" in school? Surely u didnt get revenge in evil (or comical ways). Maybe show how the kid learns not to really care how others see him, maybe in learning this he can focus without being weak and slipping off into bad thoughts and thinking that he really is what they make him to be (make sure to show the bullies as exactly what they think of the kid they make fun of, they recognize only what they know) and of course, at the end, let us get laid.

Sounds Really good and seems to have lots of potential. In terms of ending I would go with your second one as it seems easier to relay to the audience and I think its a better concept
