1 item, 20 Shorts: Plastic Prize Capsule

    So I wanted to start a series of blog posts that relate to filmmaking, and this seemed to be a creative way to go about it. For each post, I will pick a single object and present a list of twenty different ideas for a short film based on said object. Today's object is a plastic prize capsule, so here we go. Here are twenty films to make with a plastic prize capsule: 

1. Similar to "Rubber", a sentient prize capsule that kills people. 
2. A prize capsule moving from place to place, being used by different people for all things, from drugs to playtime to a soup bowl for a mouse. 
3. A crazy person with an unnatural attachment to his prize capsule. 
4. A pscientist who shrunk himself in lab experiment and can now only move around in a round prize capsule. 
5. An alternate universe where people are put in vending machines via prize capsules and dispensed to plastic toys that populate the larger world. 
6. A prize capsule that curses anyone who owns it.  
7. A prize capsule that acts as Pandora's Box and threatens to unleash evil unto anyone who dares to open it.  
8. A prize capsule that is sentient and only wants to return to his home vending machine.  
9. A prize capsule that acts as a magic mirror and traps your deepest desires.  
10. A prize capsule that has a face drawn on it and acts as a "Castaway" parody.  
11. A prize capsule that is the only friend to a very lonely man. 
12. A prize capsule that is the only clue to solving a kidnapping case.  
13. A man who has an unbearable addiction to prize-capsule vending machines.  
14. "The prize-capsule killer": A man who kills using only a prize capsule.  
15.  Prize capsules having a secret undergound society apart from the real world. 
16.  A man is buried alive in prize capsules and rises up for revenge. 
17.  A horrible factory accident transforms a man to become "The Encapsulator", a superhero/villain with an army of prize capsules filled with weapons. 
18. Bored by reality, a woman constructs glasses out of two prize capsules and discovers that they reveal unseen aspects of the real world.  
19. An epic war between the Red and the White capsules.  
20. A woman locked in an empty room has only a single prize capsule as a window to the outside world.
