@Iggy and @pretzelsing still waiting for you guys to fill in the chart! And hopefully we can start soon!

Just out of curiosity, two things:

- how long were we in LA for? Like how long have we been working together for/how well do we know each other?
- (this is definitely for later on in the story) what types of weaponry are there on set? XD

Also regarding the movie itself, what has been the general plot to date? (I realise you may have said this in the OP!) I would love to know what characters everybody's been playing - I think Ellie and I agreed Mason was playing Alicia's love interest because lol. But what about everyone else?

Also how alike are Samantha and Valerie?

I'm going to stop talking now.

- Two weeks in LA! And considering long days on set they probably know each other pretty well (or think they do).

- Our characters are sent to the Amazon to face deathly challenges. The first of which will be the ten mile hike. Basically they'll be left to fend for themselves and if they survive the challenges, they get to go home. But the thing is, no one goes home, except one (probably Alicia). Everyone will probably survive the ten mile hike but be a little worse for the wear, and then we'll go from there.

- I think it would probably be interesting if there was a character or two (according to the plot of the movie) that was physically weaker and held the group back, in a way. Alicia's character will be the leader and Mason will be the hunky friend from home who's always been in love with her (a la Gale from THG). As far as the other characters, what your thoughts?

- As far as the weapons: axes/swords/bows and arrows, and maybe others?

- I'll start my first post soon. Until then, does anyone have any questions?

Alicia's character will be the leader and Mason will be the hunky friend from home who's always been in love with her (a la Gale from THG).

I actually laughed out loud. Prepare for him to be an absolute sweetie on camera and then a tosser as soon as he drops character.

Samantha and Valerie actually aren't that much alike. They look considerably different, and Samantha is a lot more soft-spoken than Valerie. They were raised in different homes, so they weren't really affected by the stereotype of twins being very similar.

Also, Samantha enjoys playing the "stunning black-haired villain" type, but I don't think there's a place for that here. She could probably play the physically weak person, though.

Jason's post is up. Alicia's will go later.

Whoa whoa whoa, you've already decided your character will be the only one that lives? It isn't gonna be like a raffle or anything to give them all a fair chance? >_>

Iggy. xD

That's according to what happens in the script- what is *supposed* to happen according to Jason's plan.

More of our characters will probably end up surviving.

Okay cool, cause I want a fair chance for them all xD

I'll fill out the sheet tonight. But if I forget, blame @birkhoff.

Turns out you don't have to blame Birk, because he reminded me. :3

Filled sheet out.

Great Igs!

I'll hold off on posting for Alicia for right now until there a couple more posts. Excited to read what you guys come up with.

Let me know if I got any of your characters wrong! I just love writing group convos

Stella your post is fantastic.

I linked to the spreadsheet in the first post of the DT and the main thread so people will be able to reference it whenever.

I'll let a couple people post before I post for Alicia, but here's how it's going to go:

It's maybe 8/9 or so in the morning. Considering there's a six hour time difference between Brazil and California, everyone will probably be fairly jet lagged, but Jason will insist that they all join him for the meal that he drove four hours round trip to get.

Then he'll probably give them time to rest and tell them he'll leave out a cooler of ham sandwiches for lunch (which will be disgusting). Our characters will have internet access, but it'll fade out shortly before Jason leaves to go meet the crew/get the black market weapons.

Looking forward to your posts! Let me know if you have any questions or if I can help anyone with their posts.
