The Abridged Script
FADE IN:
EXT. GIANT MONSTER GROWING STATION - SPACE
MARLEY SHELTON makes her very first Editing Room appearance ever as a kickass lady space scientist.
MARLEY SHELTON
(is quickly killed off)
A MUTANT RAT karate chops the space station and it explodes, hurling canisters of mutant growth hormone down on the planet.
EXT. ZOO
THE ROCK who, if you didn't already know, is all swole up with badass, is playing THE ROCK except HE BOUGHT A ZOO. Not really but kind of.
THE ROCK
I saved this albino gorilla named George from evil human poachers so now I love all animals but hate all humans.
HOT WHITE GIRL
(gyrating hips at The Rock)
Even me?
THE ROCK
Yes. Especially you. Now we need to establish my close-knit relationship with George the Gorilla.
GORILLA GEORGE
(signing)
You should let her peel your banana.
THE ROCK
Why? I'm perfectly capable of peeling my own bana-- OH! Get your mind out of the gutter George!
GORILLA GEORGE
(sticks finger into closed fist)
(pulls finger out)
(sticks finger back in again)
I actually do this in the movie because The Rock raised me to be a horny chad, apparently.
Meanwhile the mutant growth canisters land on earth and infect GEORGE, a DIREWOLF, and CROCODILE DUNDEE who is an actual crocodile.
THE ROCK
Oh no! George has grown 10 feet! He must have gotten into my stash of HGH!
NAOMIE HARRIS
(appearing)
No! He's been exposed to a gene editing gas I developed known as CRISPR.
THE ROCK
CRISPR? Like the one in my refrigerator?
NAOMIE HARRIS
Exactly like that, except this one combines all the cool parts of different animals and sloppily fuses them together like a 2 year old playing with Legos.
THE ROCK
So like Jurassic World?
NAOMIE HARRIS
Yes exactly like that, but THIS ONE is somehow even dumber.
GEORGE freaks out and starts smashing shit while carefully avoiding killing or, you know, EATING anyone because he is a HERO afterall.
THE ROCK
Oh boy I sure hope THAT doesn't change. If George flips out and violently murders innocent people in some kind of bloody RAMPAGE and eats people there's no way he can be redeemed. NO WAY.
GORILLA GEORGE
(makes adorable sad face)
THE ROCK
Awwww! We could never stay mad at you! Let's cuddle ya big lug!
But GEORGE is suddenly tranquilized and captured by government agents controlled by JEFFREY DEAN MORGAN
JEFFREY DEAN MORGAN
(grinning)
Jee-zus! That has GOT to be the BIGGEST damn gorilla I have EV-A seen!
THE ROCK
Wow, you're playing this character totally unlike Negan.
JEFFREY DEAN MORGAN
(leans back)
(sways)
THE ROCK
Yup. TOTALLY unlike Negan.
JEFFREY arrests everyone and puts them on the plane from THE MUMMY (2017) trailer.
INT. EVIL CORP - CHICAGO
A giant forehead with a MALIN AKERMAN growing out of it appears.
MALIN AKERMAN
(vamping)
My company owned the illegal mutant growing space station and I'm responsible for Marley's death because she tried to save herself instead of my CRISPR pathogens.
(down-votes a video of kittens playing on YouTube)
JAKE LACY
Damn woman you are pure evil.
MALIN AKERMAN
Who are you?
JAKE LACY
Your pussyfied lackey brother who you berate with exposition. We kind of have a Cersei/Jamie thing going on except we don't fuck. I think.
MALIN AKERMAN
Well then I should tell you I had a giant dog whistle placed on top of this building that will draw the mutated monsters to me, destroying anything in their path including half the city.
JAKE LACY
But doesn't that also include the building we are standing in that houses all your illegal genetic research?
MALIN AKERMAN
Yeah... didn't really think past "draw giant mutant killer animals to me". I have a mental condition that doesn't allow me to anticipate the consequences of my actions.
JAKE LACY
Wow you really are like Cersei.
They turn on the giant DOG WHISTLE and the giant DIREWOLF and giant DINO-CROC hightail it to CHICAGO.
INT. TRANSPORT PLANE
THE ROCK and NAOMIE are cuffed while GEORGE is in a cage.
JEFFREY DEAN MORGAN
(leans back)
(sways)
Now don't you go worrying about this plane ladies and gents, it is the most in-DEE-structable gorilla proof air-o-plane man has EV-A made!
The dog whistle triggers GEORGE and he easily destroys the entire fucking plane.
THE ROCK
(saves Naomie with his pecks)
(saves Jeffrey with single bicep)
JEFFREY DEAN MORGAN
Hol-ly shit man, you are so damn masculine even I feel like bending over and lifting my skirt for you.
(wears a red scarf)
THE ROCK
Your acting style is so versatile. It's uncanny.
NAOMIE HARRIS
George survived the crash and is heading to Chicago where an antidote for his mutant rage is.
THE ROCK
Great, I'll fly us there in this helicopter I'm stealing.
NAOMIE HARRIS
Wait so you're a gorilla trainer, skilled at hand to hand combat, a master parachuter, AND you know how to fly a military chopper?
THE ROCK
You sound surprised? It's not like I can stop bullets with my abs or anything. THAT would be too ridiculous even for me!
EXT. AMERICA
GEORGE is going on a, wait for it... wait for it...
RAMPAGE
When he encounters the huge DIREWOLF.
GORILLA GEORGE
Let's team up!
DIREWOLF
Like the raptors and Indominus rex in Jurassic World?
GORILLA GEORGE
Fuuuuck you're right. Are we also going to break our truce and fight each other in the climax?
WARNER BROS'S LAWYERS
(violently beating back Universal's Lawyers with clubs)
EXT. CHICAGO
CONSTRUCTION WORKERS
Phew! We finally got this place back together after that whole Transformers disaster a few years ago!
GEORGE and the DIREWOLF show up and fuck everything up.
CONSTRUCTION WORKERS
(builds a dozen tables)
(flips them)
DINO CROC
Hey George and Direwolf, can I join you guys?
DIREWOLF
What the hell are you man?
GORILLA GEORGE
Yeah, you look like Tokka and Rahzar had sex with Bowser.
ALL THE MONSTERS pull down CHICAGO'S PANTS and go straight to POUND TOWN.
SGT. NOT ERNIE HUDSON
Send in the Marines!
MARINES
(killed)
SGT. NOT ERNIE HUDSON
Send in the tanks!
TANKS
(smooshed)
SGT. NOT ERNIE HUDSON
Send in the attack planes!
ATTACK PLANES
(eaten)
SGT. NOT ERNIE HUDSON
I'm nuking this cursed city!
JEFFREY DEAN MORGAN
My GAWD you must have THE BIG-gest hairiest nutsack I have EV-A seen! Droppin a big ass giant ass MOAB on the city? That ain't what good guys do broheim.
(leans back)
(sways)
SGT. NOT ERNIE HUDSON
Are you constantly trying to out maneuver a sniper bullet or what?
INT. EVIL CORP
THE ROCK and NAOMIE find the antidote but they are held at gunpoint by MALIN and JAKE.
MALIN ACKERMAN
If you give George and the monsters the antidote that would stop them from destroying this building and killing us all so Jake and I are... stopping you from saving us?? Why am I doing this exactly?
NAOMIE HARRIS
You are such a feckless cunt.
MALIN ACKERMAN
HEY! You can't say that! Take it back!
NAOMIE HARRIS
Alright alright, what I meant to say is you are an EFFECTIVE cunt.
MALIN ACKERMAN
That's more like it! Now hand over that antidote!
THE ROCK
I will do no such thing madam!
(is shot!)
NAOMIE HARRIS
Oh no! You shot him right in the abs! A fatal wound for The Rock if ever I saw one!
MALIN and JAKE abscond with NAOMIE and the antidote and leave THE ROCK to DIE HAHA JUST KIDDING HE'LL BE FINE.
EXT. EVIL CORP - ROOF
MALIN ACKERMAN
Now to escape in this helicopter before the monsters climb up here and eat me.
JAKE LACY
Why don't we just turn off the dog whistle? That would save our building and our lives.
MALIN ACKERMAN
Because... I... don't want to save our lives??? What the hell is my problem?
NAOMIE HARRIS
My god, all that forehead and no brains.
THE ROCK appears and rescues NAOMIE and steals back the antidote from MALIN.
NAOMIE HARRIS
I take it you caught that bullet with your abs which then crushed it into a fine dust that sealed your gunshot wound?
THE ROCK
Yeah how'd you know?
NAOMIE HARRIS
I thought of the most ridiculous explanation I could think of, and then wondered what would be even dumber than that.
THE ROCK
So how are we going to get George to take the antidote?
NAOMIE HARRIS
We're going to plant the antidote on Malin and then feed her to George.
THE ROCK
Haha, no seriously what's the plan?
NAOMIE HARRIS
We're going to plant the antidote on Malin, wrap her up in a giant burrito, and then feed her to George.
THE ROCK
Haha, no seriously what's the plan?
NAOMIE HARRIS
Alright alright you got me. First, you're going to ask George to calm down in a soft but assertive tone while gently stroking his arm.
THE ROCK
I like stroking, go on.
NAOMIE HARRIS
Then, I will very softly begin to hum the theme song to CBS's "hit" show Elementary because that's George's favorite Sherlock Holmes TV adaptation. Fuck you Cumberbach fans.
THE ROCK
Wait how do you know that's George's favorite Sherlock show? You've known him for like 5 minutes.
NAOMIE HARRIS
Look do you want to hear this awesome plan or not?
THE ROCK
Okay okay, please continue.
NAOMIE HARRIS
Right, so I'm humming the song, and I'm acting out all the wacky mousetrap shit in the opening title sequence, and then just as I start to hit the crescendo...
THE ROCK
Yeah, yeah...
NAOMIE HARRIS
We plant the antidote on Malin and then feed her to George.
THE ROCK
Okay you've sold me.
They plant the antidote on MALIN and then FEED HER to GEORGE.
GEORGE EATS MALIN. HE GOBBLES HER ALL UP. WHOLE.
THE ROCK
Wow. I guess the giant mutants aren't the only monsters in this movie.
The DINO CROC wrecks the Evil Corp building so much it's about to COLLAPSE! THE ROCK and NAOMIE are doomed!
THE ROCK
Not so fast! We'll just escape in Malin's helicopter which I am stealing!
NAOMIE HARRIS
But the ass of the helicopter is completely fucked! We'll crash!
THE ROCK
Yeah I know, I survive those all the time. Here, hide inside my glutes, they'll cushion you from the impact.
EVIL CORP collapses but THE ROCK and NAOMIE survive because THE ROCK's muscles are physics-resistant.
GORILLA GEORGE
Hey I'm a good guy again! Time to fight the Direwolf and Dino Croc!
THE ROCK
Great! I'll help you!
GORILLA GEORGE
Huh, how? You're just a man.
THE ROCK
Yes but I have a grenade launcher now.
GORILLA GEORGE
But so did the army, along with bullets and missiles and bombs and none of that was able to even give the monsters a heat rash.
THE ROCK
Yes but the army made the crucial mistake of using those weapons while not being The Rock.
It's a full on monster brawl: THE ROCK AND GEORGE vs DIREWOLF AND DINO CROC.
DIREWOLF
(hit with grenades)
Ow! These hurt now that The Rock is firing them!
THE ROCK
Toldja!
DIREWORLF
Ah, but check out my sick new squirrel glider powers!
(flies around)
DINO CROC
And check out my even cooler ability of having a huge wide open mouth!
Sunlight gleams off of THE ROCK's glistening triceps and blinds DIREWOLF.
DIREWOLF
FUUUCK!!
(flies into Dino Croc's mouth)
(is eaten)
DINO CROC
Whoops. He should have known better. A crocodile is going to crocodile. Now, to get me a taste of that juicy Rock meat!
But DINO CROC is suddenly mesmerized by how smooth and shiny THE ROCK's bald head is.
GORILLA GEORGE
(stabs Dino Croc in the eye)
DINO CROC
(is turned into 3,000 pairs of shoes)
THE ROCK
Hooray! George saved the city!
GORILLA GEORGE
If by "saved" you mean "totally fucking destroyed", then yes, I did that. I also pooped everywhere. Just, everywhere. Now I must die ERK!
THE ROCK
It's for the best. I mean do you realize how many wrongful death lawsuits I'd have to deal with? How do I explain to Malin's living relatives that she can't be laid to rest because she's too busy working her way through your large intestine? But you were my best friend and I shall miss you old buddy!
(sheds tear)
GORILLA GEORGE
Gotcha! I ignored the thousands of dead humans surrounding us to make a joke! And you fell for it! You even cried!
THE ROCK
No! That was baby oil in my eyes! Swear!
NAOMIE HARRIS
So what happened to Jake?
THE ROCK
A big piece of debris bludgeoned him to death while Jeffrey watched, and boy oh boy does Jeffrey love watching dudes get bludgeoned to death.
NAOMIE HARRIS
Did Jeffrey lean back and sway while he did it?
THE ROCK
Do you even have to ask?
NAOMIE HARRIS
So, I guess we're dating now.
THE ROCK
WE ARE?!
NAOMIE HARRIS
Yeah. I've been tonging you with my eyes for the entire movie. And come on dude, I'm chocolate Moneypenny, you know you want this. Right George?
GORILLA GEORGE
(does the "doggy style" pantomime)
Okay I don't ACTUALLY do this in the movie but the fact it wouldn't be totally out of character speaks volumes.
GEORGE helps survivors who are surprisingly not pants shittingly terrified of the HUGE GODDAMN MAN EATING GORILLA that was killing people 20 minutes ago.
Then, suddenly, emerging from the rubble is a talentless hack director with a deranged look in his beady eyes.
UWE BOLL
NEIN NEIN NEIN! ZIS MOVIE IZ ZEE FAKE RAMPAGE! I MAKE ZEE REAL RAMPAGE!!! CHANGE ZEE TITLE OR I SUE! I SUUUUUUUUUUUUEEEE
(is squished by George)
GORILLA GEORGE
(is instantly forgiven for all his crimes)
