Michelle Rodriguez Writing Children's Film

A girl mentions the Goonies and suddenly I am all over this!
Michelle Rodriguez (who has been very quiet lately) has begun writing her first family film. How fun!! The actress promises the movie will be a "Jumanji meets Goonies" with an environmental twist.
"It’s a 2012 story about purity and animals and children. The premise behind it is all the animals on earth freak out and start attacking anything that’s not pure because of a seance that occurred in the rainforest after it’s depletion in 2012. It becomes cataclysmic.
"I’m in Italy trying to write this thing and I’ve only got 15 pages done so far. I’ve had this idea in my head since I was 15 and I’m trying to capture today’s children and it’s so intense because I don’t know anything these kids are into, but I do know they are well informed.
"Kids are smart, so to capture them will be interesting. I’m focusing the film on 12 or 13 year olds."
What do you think parents of tweens? Something that your kids will find interesting?

totally! We started a freecycle chapter in my city, and the kids know all about it, so they loved Wall E. I am sure this will be along the same idea, if your kids enjoy being green, and learning to be good stewards of our planet, they will love it! Sounds like a great concept.
I agree actually. Sounds like a great concept. I look forward to hearing more and seeing what this girl can pull off.
Sounds stupid to me.
Pure? Worst description of a movie ever.
Let's hope she can pull this off. It sounds very educational, plus entertaining at the same time. Good luck, Michelle!
She looks fantastic. Always a fan.
