Documentary Style?
Just had the chance to watch the original grunion runners for the first time in a long time and it still made me laugh out loud by myself in my room. I think the sequel should be either done documentary style, or at the very least quasi documentary style (like the life aquatic). I think the story should be simplified (i realized now after watching it again that the story for jose’s gold we have going is gonna turn into the matrix reloaded of sequels, as in totally untrue to the original and over the top). Here’s my first idea: A documentary following the grunion runners were scott admits to the team that they are in fact bankrupt and a trek through the wilderness to find the legendary jose’s gold (possibly with documentary interview style cutbacks to how it was that all the money was lost in the first place). Thus it would turn into sort of a journey film, like remember that movie alaska we always had to watch in school with the two kids trying to find there dad in a plane crash and they make friends with a polar bear? Something like that fused with the life aquatic/best in show stuff that we had done before.
