Idea Generation

Serious Ending -
Bad ideas (eg things that would be seen as WRONG - Child shoots hitman? Hitman kills child by mistake making it have a serious edge. Peado Hitman/bad guy?
Someone we don't know about takes out our hitman unexpectedly-eg pizza boy or random sexxxxy lady. Squirrel in hitman outfit. lol

The guy the Hitman takes out is a cop and you only realize by seeing his badge as he falls to the ground after he's been taken out.

Affection for the target:
Montage like 'Sniper' Sam and I have watched can show time passing. And he literally stalks the lady/man. He goes slightly insane and follows this target and begins to love the chase. Not actually wanting to kill them anymore. Someone else is hired after time to take out both of them. He ends up protecting them in a gun battle?

Just another idea... possibly have a hitman who remembers things about his past eg loved ones dying - have it in a graphic novel style such as in my original film I pitched this would save doing a detailed animation of it and still get the sound across. Possibly putting a serious twist on the film however do we WANT to go for a serious edge... possibly if we want a serious start and then push for the climax of comedy. Would half serious with a build of light hearted comedy into a full comedy work? Still need an ending though.

Good solid ending. A climax. How to end a film? Escape for the Hitman? What if the Hitman is the target and he's the one trying to escape? Need a different opening obviously. Hitman confined to the room. What if we have it all from the targets POV and from his house. You see him setting up the gun and everything for protection but he's the bad guy - just don't realize it.
