You know what’s also great? Dirt bikes! E1: I’m sorry, dirt bikes? E2: Please enjoy some of this fine cocaine before I continue. E1: (snorts line): Okay, go ahead. E2: So, dirt bikes. E1: Dirt bikes! Yes! They’re so cool! Kids love ’em! E2: We take a classic fairy tale and we add a dirt bike to it. E1: That’s brilliant! Snow White and the Seven Dirtbikes! E2: I think Disney will sue our asses if we go there. I was thinking more like Hansel and Gretel or something. E1: Jack and the Beanstalk! I mean, Jack and the Dirt Bike! E2: Yes! I love it! Dirt bikes are just like magic beans. Now we need an aspirational protagonist. Who is someone that the kids love? One of the Coreys? Maybe Judd Nelson? E1: Ralphie! From A Christmas Story!
