That screenplay in the trunk of your car...

Security maven Bruce Schneier is running his fourth annual Movie-Plot Threat Contest.

The deal is, you submit your idea for a movie about some threat to Civilization as We Know It. Schneier stipulates, “The goal here is to be outlandish but plausible, ridiculous but possible, and—if it were only true—terrifying.” The submission has to be in the form of a news story & you’re limited to 150 words.

Shouldn’t be a problem for the Twitterati.

Looks like submission is via the comments section on Schneier’s post. No material gain, just the recognition that you really have a handle on the reality of post-modernist life.

& who knows—there might be an actual film deal involved.
