Gonna make a mint...

Given the success of such filmic treatments of philosophical concepts as The Matrix ("What if the Brain-In-A-Vat scenario was true, but then suddenly wasn't") and Bladerunner ("What if Speciesism was justified, but then suddenly wasn't"), I have decided to write my own screenplay for a feature length film entitled:

The Stoppening! Aka: What If Occasionalism Was True, But Then Suddenly Wasn't.

The Stoppening

EXT. A CITY PARK - A SATURDAY MORNING

A typical morning scene. People are jogging through the park, walking their dogs, playing with their children, and picnicing. A YOUNG MAN is running through the park, flying a kite.

EXT. HEAVEN

GOD
What a beautiful mor- *ERK!*

GOD clutches at his chest and falls over.

CUT TO:

EXT. CITY PARK

Everything is exactly as it was in the opening shot. Absolutely nothing moves. This shot is held for approximately 97 minutes.

TITLE CARD READING: "The End...?"
