STUDIO EXECUTIVE: We need a new movie about a sniper.
STUDIO BOSS: Meh. It’s been done.
STUDIO EXECUTIVE: How about a sniper who falls in love?
STUDIO BOSS: Kinda stale.
STUDIO EXECUTIVE: …with another sniper!
STUDIO BOSS: (yawning) And...
STUDIO EXECUTIVE: But wait: there’s more! They’re on the opposite sides of... (thinking quickly of a metaphor) a deep gorge.
STUDIO BOSS: To do what?
STUDIO EXECUTIVE: Snipe!
STUDIO BOSS: Snipe what?
STUDIO EXECUTIVE: Uh… zombies, of course!
STUDIO BOSS: At some point they're going to FALL INTO the gorge full of zombies, right?
STUDIO EXECUTIVE: You can bet your sweet bippy!
STUDIO BOSS: And there will be zombies riding zombie horses, right?
STUDIO EXECUTIVE: Uh... Of course. Sure. Why not? It’s all a metaphor for societies' growing divisions and…
STUDIO BOSS: Yeah, yeah, yeah... How pretty are the actors?
STUDIO EXECUTIVE: The prettiest.
STUDIO BOSS: Sold.
