Not Another Buddy Movie


Recommended Posts

nabm_sig2.png

Not Another Buddy Movie is a parody/crossover story by yours truly, combining Eloise and Splinter Cell into a unique, crazy mashup. Although this one was based on Splinter Cell, many events, plot elements, characters and stuff from the Grand Theft Auto III series are involved, which explains why I posted this one here.

OK, I've already posted a similar thread here, but I decided to make another one... I'm now working on the prologue; it's not yet done but it goes like this:

It was a sunny day in New York, as usual; Mrs. Thompson and Mr. Salamone were busy with the guests, and so are some of my friends at the lobby. It seemed rawther strange that my Nanny didn't come here to take care of me... And then, my Mama called...

*cellphone ringing*

"Hi there, sweetie!", Mama called, "Are you OK there?"

"I'm OK, Mama, how about you?" I replied.

"I'm fine here at the agency. But I'm afraid your Nanny won't make it there, since she got sick last night," said Mama...

Eloise's mum works for the NSA, and is a friend of Irving Lambert, Sam's employer (actually, I made up those facts to give a little background about her mom's line of work, which was never mentioned in Kay Thompson's children's book). The books were originally set in the mid 50's, but I retconned it, so it now takes place in October 2007, during the events of GTA IV, although the story is set in NYC, meaning that the girl was born in 2001.

Timeline

The following is a timeline of events in the canon of NABM, well, just to give you guys a little back-story about its characters.

1907 - The Plaza Hotel, designed by Henry Janeway Hardenbergh, was opened to the public on October 1, 1907.

1943 - Conrad Hilton bought the Plaza for $7.4 million in 1943 and spent $6 million to refurbish the original.

1947 - Eloise's Nanny is born.

1952 - Tommy Vercetti and Mr. Salamone is born.

1957 - Sam Fisher is born.

1969 - Carl "CJ" Johnson is born.

1983 - William, the room service guy and Eloise's homie, is born

1988 - Donald Trump bought the Plaza for $407.5 million.

2001 - Eloise is born.

2002 - Toni Cipriani bought the Plaza for $700 million from Donald Trump.

2003 - The Third Echelon was established.

2004 - Eloise's mum began working for the NSA.

2007 - The events of NABM took place.

Characters

Sam Fisher - He was an operative of Third Echelon, a clandestine division of the National Security Agency. Fisher is extremely agile and an expert in the art of stealth. Fisher was the first person to be recruited as a field operative of the "Splinter Cell" program for Third Echelon. Although somewhat reluctant, Sam accepted Lambert's offer to take care of Eloise, since he had nothing else to do besides doing nothing in his townhouse.

Eloise - A city child, Eloise had been an NYC resident since she was little. She lives in the Plaza, room 1602 to be exact. She's a nuisance and a party crasher, yet loved by her homies at the hotel.

Mr. Salamone - The manager of the Plaza Hotel; he makes sure that everything runs smoothly at the Plaza. He's rather strict and acts seriously. Despite being somewhat pissed off at the girl's antics, he often smiles and says "Hi!" at the kid.

Bill - Bill's one of the waiters at the Plaza, and a close friend of Eloise. Every morning, he brings room-service breakfast at the kid (and her pets, too). In the evenings, he attends theater school; in one chapter, Sam had to drive Eloise and Bill to Yuko, the girl's buddy and escort the waiter to school.

Nanny - Eloise's close friend and homie; she somewhat influenced the girl's way of speaking, adding a little British accent to the words Eloise speaks. She got sick (as in, really sick) in the story, which explains why Sam had to take care of the kid.

Toni Cipriani - The present owner of the Plaza; after his successes in the gangsta scene, he went on buying the Plaza from Mr. Trump after leaving the Leone Family, which fell in disarray after the death of Salvatore Leone. He always smiles and greets at Eloise, whom he admired, since he had no children.

Mrs. Thompson - Born Catherine L. Fink, Kay is an American author, composer, musician, actress, and singer, best known for her stories about her friend Eloise. She works at the Plaza lobby, assisting guests who check in and out of the hotel.

Carl Johnson - CJ is one of the leading members (later co-leader) of the Grove Street Families (GSF), along with his brother, Sean "Sweet" Johnson. He checked in the Plaza, and made a rather comic cameo appearance...

As you see here, I've combined elements and other stuff from GTA, Splinter Cell, Eloise and a bunch of other movies to make this story... Suggestions are welcome... :lol:

I hope you guys like it...

Not to be Mr. Negative here... But this is almost 100% characters/details from OTHER pre-written stuff, simply mashed together with a few things to tie them together. You didn't even change minor details about most of these people/things. And what is a "buddy movie"? O.o

Hmm, thanks for the rants, Spaz; OK, I know some of this was just taken from various sources (Wikipedia, the Eloise website, and so forth), but OK, maybe some minor changes might do the trick...

And, about the buddy movie stuff, think of a really crappy movie such as the recent Bratz flick; I made NABM as a response to them, just because they suck and all...

He`s not on these forums anymore,people drove him away.

Including you.

And you.

But on topic, Huck where do you get these ideas.

I got that idea after photoshopping an image from Conviction, pasting Sofia Vassilieva on an image with Sam on it:

scplazahotel.jpg

I went to bed that evening, and thought of a story out of that pic... And that's how I came up with that fanfic... I also came up with some missions, just in case if we came up with a mod for GTALC (a mod for a mod?), although this involves replacing one building with the Plaza... OK, so I saw a SketchUp model for it, maybe this would do the trick, converting the mesh to DFF and mapping TXDs to it...

That image is fucking funny.

Yeah, agreed with that...

Sam Fisher will have a rough time being a nanny. :P

Yeah, and adding to the fact that there are lots of cameo appearances in it...

Oh, and here's the Flash Earth link for the hotel, just in case you guys are now working with it...

Guys, I guess we might as well Photoshop this pic, too, for the story, since Ludacris will also have a cameo role here:

Maybe putting Ludacris or some other rapper, and superimpose him in the image, as if he's actually sitting, will do...

I've also came up with a valet and a toy store mission; better think of more at home...

OK, here's the completed first chapter:

Prologue - A Call From Mama

In Eloise's point of view...

Plaza Hotel, Room 1602

It was a sunny day in New York, as usual; Mrs. Thompson and Mr. Salamone were busy with the guests,

and so are some of my friends at the lobby. It seemed rawther strange that my Nanny didn't come here

to take care of me... And then, my Mama called...

*cellphone ringing*

"Hi there, sweetie!", Mama called, "Are you OK there?"

"I'm OK, Mama, how about you?" I replied merrily.

"I'm fine here at the agency. But I'm afraid your Nanny won't make it there, since she got sick last

night," said Mama.

"Oh, dear," I replied.

"But don't worry, honey, I'll ask a friend of mine for a temporary replacement," said Mama calmly.

"OK, see you around, Mama, I love you, I love you, I love you!" I replied, hanging up my cellphone

after a while. Gee, I wondered who'll be my substitute nanny for a while... Is he as nice as my old

Nanny? I spent hours and hours thinking about that, restless, bored and all, with only me. Oh, and

about Skipperdee and Weenie? They're at the vet, for an annual check-up. I turned on my computer,

played some GTA, and then asked my friend Bill, the waiter, for some snacks...

*picks up the intercom*

"Hello, this is me, Eloise. Could you please give me some French toast and some rawther hot tea?" I

asked, waving my hand as Bill listens to my order.

"Why sure, all for the princess," replied Bill. The crew then prepared my snack, and after a while,

the doorbell rang...

"Bonjour, Eloise," Bill greeted, putting all the snacks at the table. "You look fine today, dear,

here's the French toast and some tea,"

"Bonjour, too, Bill" I greeted; I paused my game for a while and took a bite at one of the

sandwhiches.

"Gee, thanks," I thanked, "Oh, and charge it, please," Bill then took a peek at the monitor,

watching the mischief I'm making in the game...

"You're playing Grand Theft Auto there," said Bill, smiling as I drove a firetruck in GTA.

"I often end up dead when I play it," I lamented.

"Me, too," replied Bill, "OK, Eloise, see you around, I have some more work to do, y'know,"

----------------------------

Third Echelon HQ, Washington DC

*the telephone rang*

"Is this Irving Lambert?" Cathy, Eloise's mother, asked.

"Oh, Cathy, how's it going?" Lambert asked in reply, sipping a cup of coffee.

"Things are running smoothly, Irving, it's just that my daughter needed someone to take care of her

for a while," Cathy replied.

"You mean Eloise? She already had a nanny, right?" Lambert asked.

"Oh, sorry if I forgot to tell you, but her nanny's sick and she won't make it there at the Plaza,"

Cathy added.

"OK, I don't know, but what if I send one of my agents there?" Lambert replied, "I know this isn't a

baby-sitting service, but oh, well..."

Lambert then called his pal Sam, who was having a vacation at his townhouse in Maryland...

To be continued????

Well, I have to add some more stuff, so God Bless and see ya' around... = )

Oh, and maybe an Eloise player mod for VC, depicting her as a teenager, might do... I thought of it after seeing Jessrocked's stunt video on Youtube...

I've made a Vercetti player mod for Vice, with clothes similar to the one worn by the Plaza staff:

That looks sweet! I would definitely download that if I had VC installed. Hope you do chapter 2 soon.
