captain_slinky | Star Warrior Lords of Serenity

This morning I woke up with another one of my brilliant "SOMEBODY PLEASE TAKE MY BRILLIANT IDEA AND MAKE MILLIONS OF DOLLARS JUST SO I CAN SEE THIS AS REALITY" ideas; Harrison Ford, Nathan Fillion and Chris Pratt in a movie about three generations of intergalactic criminals competing to pull off some big heist that ends up putting them in the position of saving The Universe by accident.

Through the movie, a common thread will be that each of them thinks that one of the others is a part of their past - Ford thinks Fillion is his long lost son, Fillion thinks Pratt is a contract killer sent to rub him out, Pratt thinks Ford is some fugitive war criminal. Never confronting each other about it, just stuff that we the audience are in on and that they talk about to the wrong people - Pratt tells Fillion that he thinks Ford is the war criminal, Ford confides to Pratt that he thinks Fillion is his son, Fillion asks for Ford's assistance in keeping an eye on the assassin.

All this while the main story about a heist going terribly wrong unfolds.

But the BRILLIANT part is in the end-of-credits stinger, where the three re sitting around a campfire or in a bar or something exchanging info, saying "What? NO! That's not... here, let me show you my ID. See, no way I could be..." "Wait, you thought I was... HA! No, no... here, this should clear THAT up... I can barely fire a blaster!" et and so forth, all sub-plots and suggestions wrapped-up nicely :)
