Dave Made a Maze Page #2

Synopsis: 'Dave Made A Maze' re-imagines classic 80's adventure films with a modern comedic edge and a higher body count. Dave, an artist who has yet to complete anything significant in his career, builds a fort in his living room out of pure frustration, only to wind up trapped by the fantastical pitfalls, booby traps, and critters of his own creation. Ignoring his warnings, Dave's girlfriend Annie leads a band of oddball explorers on a rescue mission. The handmade fantasy world comes to life with puppetry, stop-motion animation, and in-camera optical illusions, re-igniting the tactile sense of wonder from the movies of our childhoods.

maze in his living room

and he can't get out.

No, no bag, no closet, just.

Yeah, Annie just came home

and found him,

no, no, no,

Gordon? Gordon!

Hold on a sec, Leo.

What?

Only Leonard.

Only Leonard.

You got me?

Yes, of course.

You Ok?

Yeah, I'm fine.

Just... kinda hungry.

And we can't tear it down?

Please don't.

- Let's go get him.

- No, you can't.

It's too dangerous.

You wouldn't last a second

with the obstacles

- and the booby traps...

- You built obstacles?

Yeah, just for fun,

and they took on

a life of their own.

And they're not what I intended.

So we can't tear it down,

and we can't go in?

I'm going home.

No, no, come on, you just got here.

Let's hang out.

I've gotta work tomorrow.

Well, you've got

awesome right now!

Sorry.

Bye, Dave.

Bye, Leonard!

Leonard, can I get a few words

from you before you go?

Ok.

Cock, radio, porcelain,

an interview.

Wait, was that Harry?

Yeah, he's making a documentary.

Oh.

Did he see the labyrinth yet?

Nope.

Probably missed it.

Come on, guys!

It's huge!

Wait, who else is out there?

Me, Gordon, Harry.

Uh, Harry's crew.

Greg and Brynn are here.

Hey, Dave.

Can you not say that

at the same time as me?

What?

- You know...

- Hey, guys.

Hey, Dave.

- Damn it.

- Gordon, what the f***?

Nicole couldn't make it,

but Jane is here.

I want to go inside!

Can we go inside?

- What? No!

- Ok.

I don't understand, why can't

he just break out of it?

Because he's attached to it.

Huh.

Yeah, Ok.

Ok, well, don't just

let anyone in, Ok?

Yeah, there's some

Flemish tourists,

hobo from the street.

- Can I use the shower?

- Gordon!

Look, buddy, you said

you knew mazes.

I said I know cardboard.

- Pizza's here.

- More cardboard.

Oh, you guys got some pizza.

- Annie?

- What?

Can you come back to the back

of the labyrinth, please?

I can't.

I have to get the pizza.

Please?

I'll get it.

I'll get it.

What?

I'm sorry I can't

figure my way out of here.

I feel like a fish

in a fishbowl.

Everything is so close.

I'm really sorry.

Ok.

Ok what?

You sound pissed.

This is stupid.

Not from in here.

I miss you.

I miss you, too.

Ok, that's great.

Can we try another one?

Ok, I got one.

Um, when I first heard about

Dave being trapped in a maze,

I was like, well,

at least he's not sucking

a big veiny dick

for kickstarter money.

That's not how

kickstarter works!

- Hi.

- Oh, hey.

Why didn't we start with Annie?

- I'm going into the maze.

- Really? Ok.

- Don't touch me!

- I'm sorry.

You're good. We're gonna pick

up later, where we left off.

Ok, thank you, Leonard.

Ok, Annie, you come home,

there's a giant maze
