    Would I be perhaps a little brazen, a little daring, if I suggested there be a scene where Ted Jr is in his room with the Boglins, dancing around and singing along to Twisted Sister's "I Wanna Rock"?

    The parents could go out to see a local theatrical production (possibly of Grease), and before they leave they're like 'You know the rules. No loud music.' And then BAM. We cut to a close-up of him hitting 'Play' on his tape deck.


    As long as their old English sheep dog, Rolo, gets to wear a pair of fluoro sunglasses (aka solar shades) during the montage.

    I think we can do that! I think we can actually do that!

    And the dog would totally be into some of that gross pizza that we've already established.

    EDIT: Solar shades! Mr. Gitoku, have you been reading my blog? *coy*

    And Ted Danson's all like, "Rolo! Son, can't you control Rolo for five minutes?"

    That really goes without saying.
    Near the end of that scene, one of the Boglins is probably going to get launched out the window by a ceiling fan. A nosy old neighbor will see the Boglin, and FREAK OUT! Her cat will hiss at the Boglin and run away.

    When Ted comes home, he's all like "What happened here?!". Ted's son just shrugs, as a Boglin falls into his hands. Ted just rolls his eyes, and smiles. "I shoulda known..."

    They help him discover his own courage along the way.
    This movie will have an important message.

    I can just see the trailer now...

    "For Ted Danson Jr, life was a drag."
    (show a montage of the prettiest girl in school looking grossed out by him, and some bullies menacing him)
    "And then he met... the Boglins."

    I think we need to get Huey Lewis (with or without The News) involved. Does anyone have his number?

    I think the other characters have to be fleshed out: I suggest that Ted Danson play the part of a toy designer.

    His wife can either a) recently have died or b) be an architect who feels she needs some time away from Ted because things aren't going well in the new toy disigning business. Either way, this is the source of some distress to Ted Jr. At first Ted Snr even thinks the Boglins might be his son's imaginary friends!

    Either Joe Pesci or John Polito can play the part of the greedy business man trying to build a mall on the Boglin's home.



    Actually Polito will be best because he can wear a wig. And at some point the wig is knocked off his head and worn by a Boglin. Who wouldn't wanna see a Boglin wearing a wig??

    I don't think I'd wanna talk to somebody who didn't want to see that stuff.

    Definitely Polito.
    It's important he master these skills for his role: falling down(tripping over Boglins), chasing after kids & Boglins while yelling, Smoking a cigar, Crossing his eyes and talking funny after a Boglin or Ted Jr kick him in the balls *very important*

    He looks like he can handle this workload.

    I have one slight addendum to that, Harry.

    When he gets kicked, Polito needs to cry out (squeak out...) "They got me in the Boglins!!"

    Even mom will laugh at that one.

    It works on so many levels!
    It'd really be stupid NOT to make him say that.

    I could be wrong, but I'm thinking Polito's wife might need to find a few Boglins in her new mink coat that he bought her. When she slaps him in the face, he has no idea why!

    Since Ted Danson is going to play the part of toy designer who has no new ideas wouldn't it be great if some toy company execs see the Boglins fall out of Ted's suitcase and say "Wow! We'll buy 10,000 of them!" And Ted's back on top again!

    Gitoku has the right idea!

    I think there should be a Pizza Hut promotion. They could do a mystery pizza where you might get some weird toppings. People love wasting money like that.

    And you could get a mini Boglin with your kids' meal, or if you're a 35 year old toy collector you can shame-facedly ask the busboy if you can buy one.

    Just had a brainstorm for the Boglins DS Game guys. In the game you have to collect pizza parts to restore your health!

    It's like art imitating life imitating art.

    I can't wait to see like a million kids trip me up by walking straight into me in the mall while playing Boglins on their DS.
