This FML is from back in 2011 but it's good stuff
Creative mind
Today, I was paired up with a partner in my film class. He has an idea for a film: "Shoot an onion from all angles, light it on fire, and roll it down a hill." He was dead serious. I'm stuck with this guy for the whole year. FML

So their idea is different and creative. And? I don't see a problem here. :P

It's just a random collection of thoughts put together in sequence due only in part by the nature of matter and physics because the onion must exist in all of the film. There's no technical or creative merit to this at all. It's something I'd do just for the hell of it when I was younger, but wouldn't try to pass it off for a project unless I wanted to be extraordinarily lazy.

You used to light onions on fire and roll them down hills when you were younger? I can't imagine how bored you must have been on those days.

#89 Well, it's at least better than a tired storyline that's been used already many times.

A flaming onion avalanche? Marijuana is one hell of a drug. To all you people saying things like, "That's such a creative idea," creative doesn't mean that it's NOT a retarded idea...which it is!

it's only art if it's a purple onion and you tie small army figures to it before lighting it in fire. and cover it in dog poop. then you can call it "prisoners of war" and go hard.

So are you jealous that your partner actually had an idea and you didn't? Because you don't mention anything about volunteering your own. Don't insult the ideas of others when you have nothing to bring to the table yourself. It's just an idea, it's not like he demanded you film it or he wouldn't participate.
