The Penny Men are back, and this time they’re armed with nothing but a title: The Last Return!
That’s it! No notes, no outlines, no budget — just three guys and a microphone trying to spin cinematic gold out of a vague, Blockbuster-sounding phrase!
Gregory pitches a Mad Max–by-way-of-the-library epic, where one man must carry the most overdue book in history across a wasteland of burnt trees, weird McDonaldland warlords, and Christopher Lloyd’s gang of Foot Clan rejects!
Will the library accept the last return? Or will Judge Doom himself burn the Dewey Decimal System to the ground?
Then Ben takes it to space — literally! His version is an intergalactic city-station where the last contact with Earth happened a century ago, known only as “the last return!” Pirates, refugees, and descendants of every Earth nation live in a drifting New York–sized station, trying to survive without governments, supplies, or alien attacks (that never showed up in the first place)!
Tom… may or may not have a pitch! But he’s got a notepad, a few sarcastic asides, and an encyclopedic knowledge of movies the other two keep accidentally plagiarizing!
Along the way:
It’s the ultimate crossover of post-apocalyptic trash heaps and space-station politics! Grab your overdue fines and strap in — it’s The Last Return!
