The plan:

Part Lauren:
Let's create a graphic novel about "corn syrup" personified rather like the "thing" in cloverfield (i dont care what anyone says, it was a good movie) and a team of superheros whose mission it is to eradicate corn syrup from the face of the planet. the superheros can have secret identities and suffer emotional scaring from what corn syrup has done to their parents.there will be lots of leather and spandex, and really fast cars that are fueled by garbage thus lessening the amount of material in landfills. and a really kick ass theme song written by Danny Elfman. i think that combined you and i have enough friends to pull this off.

Part Gurg: Yes, yes! I have the beginning and the ending: The corn syrup monster rear its glistening head from the cornfields of Iowa and have a horrible spawning process in which it shoots babies across the world. I'm picturing something reminiscent of a giant ear of corn popping, if the popped corn looked like 80-pound naked mole rats covered in coagulating cream cheese. At the end after hunting down all the leader ears, (in a montage) our superheros will corner the Mother Ear and just before they are about to destroy it, the monster will reanimate the bodies of their dead families (almost perfectly preserved. The superheros will face off as some try to destroy the corn zombies and some try to save them. During the fracas, the Mother Ear escapes. Our surviving heroes stand grimly vigilant against a setting sun. The final shot is a sunrise over a stumbling Chinese peasant and we realize...the monster is in China!

The End???

Will you do your part? For Freedom?
