I guess I am the rare individual whom has more ideas than I know what to do with.
I see things all the time that give me ideas, new movies, old movies, tv shows = the same, my wife and I recently started watching reruns of The Ghost Whisperer on Hulu, after about 2 episodes I found myself not only duplicating it but trying to use Face programs to copy Jennifer Love Hugetits and I was pretty much successful too.
But for old time, when I was young inspiration, it came largely from a few copies of Heavy Metal Magazine a room mate of my mothers left out once and I found them, then I saw the movie and I was instantly affected by the comics in those volumes.
Plus old horror movies, like the old smash house movies, there was one called 'Savage Weekend' which is a low budget and largely senseless horror movie, but at one point in the film one of the attractive and very pale women in the movie goes to the middle of a field by herself, strips naked and starts sunbathing.
So later this other guy walking home from fishing sees her laying there, takes off his shorts and nails her right then and there, not a word is spoken, he just cums and goes, while other guys watch.
It was warped and it warped me.
I find myself recreating that scene, in different ways.
But that isn't the only one, there are others, like the original Death Race 2000, Mel Brooks comedies, Monty Python, SNL and it's anciallary projects like the Blues Brothers, Animal House, Caddyshack, and even the Ghost Busters.
Not to mention Ralph Bakshi, his work also inspires me, movies like Wizards, American Pop, Fire and Ice.
