So...
I need a bit of help. As in HELP!!!
You see, I've got, what I think, is a great idea, but I'm afraid that it might be really cliché and cheesy.
I thought I'd toss out the idea and see what you all think.
(Someone should get Nate to add a "Premise/Synopsis Critique" forum, or something...)
Any way, here it is:
The world's "first nations" (America, Japan, France, etc.) are attacked simultaneously, in one massive strike, by an underground entity, plunging the world into chaos and a "modern dark age."
But somehow, someone suspected this would happen. Decades before “Red Dawn” actually occurred, a team of scientists got together and discovered how to place a living human in suspended animation. When "Red Dawn" happened, they selflessly placed their children in the capsules instead of saving themselves. Only it really wasn't as "selfless" an act as it may have first appeared…
50 years later, the 4 kids awake to a very different world then when they had left. Each of them is equipped with a code, but there had been no explanation and they don't know what the code is for.
Meantime, in the past 5 decades the entity was destroyed and a new organization was set up: “Albatross.” It started out as a relief aid and then built “refuge cities” where one could be safe from the horrors of the war torn earth…for a price. Only Albatross had two sides, and a hidden agenda. This ties in with the resurgence of the entity at about the same time when the kids awake.
In the “New World” military technology has advanced, and independent operating robots have been invented. (On a side note, fully attached prosthetic limbs have also been invented.) These discoveries and developments were born out of necessity, and the technologies used by the entity to try and control the world powers.
There has also been resistance to the entity and “Albatross” by those who were able to see through the lies. The rebels have been severely oppressed and driven underground. But now, a new discovery may help them drive back the organizations out to eliminate them—human cloning.
Please tell me honestly what you think. Thanks.
