How to make a movie

Step 1 : Select the kind of movie you want to make , this can broadly be classified into typical hollywood,bollywood,tollywood,chinese kung fu movies,others

Step 2 : Follow the guide for appropriate section

Hollywood

Find a bunch of hot chicks.Get lots of weird looking youngsters , you will need this for the inevitable party scene.Find one cute girl with girl next door image ,but still above the minumum required hotness level, deciding this level is really crucial for success of the film.Decide a storyline which is as close as possible to this one
"Cute girl loves cute guy , guy wants to have fun with hot chicks , but in climax realises that cute girl is THE ONE and they live happily ever after.Guy's friends take up weirdest possible professions this btw comes only after you show 'THE END' "

Build a series of parties ,hot scenes around this storyline such that the audience doesn't get bored ,select some title like say 'Amerian Cake 1' and there you go with your next blockbuster.
If you are really creative and have thought a lot more than you can possible stuff in to one movie,make different movies ,end each one with some twist and name the next movie as 'American Cake 2' this way you don't have to strain yourself searching for a cool name each time.

Tollywood

Rent a lot white Tata Sumos ,different kinds of knives,hundreds of body builders and yes, bright colored garments which withstood even the best discount sale ever.From there its just a matter of finding the right songs to copy ,mostly from tollywood and being innovative in choreographing cool dance steps and colorful fight sequences.You should not worry about storyline till you have enough of fight and dance sequences.
Another simple and time tested way to make a successful tollywood flick is to find a kollywood movie which has most of these characteristics ,make the dialogues more aggressive and rhyming and release it !

Bollywood

Get the dates of as many stars as possible , the more you get the better.Create a lot of hype and controversies about the film.Shoot a club song and rest is upto you.

Chinese

Find an old guy who will play the kung fu master's role , villains will kill this guy and then some of his students will get undergo some really difficult training like standing on noodles cup for about an hour , hanging upside down and fighting and drinking and blinking at heroine, all the same time etc.
They will make many attempts and finally in the climax will kill the villain.Invent as many different forms of kung fu as possible ,the more creative they are the better .You can also give some super cool powers like invisibility, high frequency voice which can break things, etc to spice up the movie.

Evolution of Nick Names

Nick names are cool , well they are cool most of the times.You have to be really creative to find a suitable,funny,apt,compelling nick name that lasts.Its not necessary that they mean something , it is actually better if they don't and mind you they are not just for fun ,never.Like every other creature in this world , nick names too have a birth,life,history and rarely death.

There is this guy who is fondly called as di(t)ch , not sure why he got this name but when people call him dich ,it just feels right.There is even a orkut fan group for this.The funny thing about nick names is , like in this case people start responding to it readily , so much so that they slowly forget their actual name.
Then there are universal nick names like mama,thayir etc.In any college you will find more than one responding to these.
Sometimes people are not all that good when nick-naming , for instance people who tend to do everything in easiest and most efficient way possible get names like vetti, which means jobless or one who avoids/escapes from doing tiny chores.Come on getting work done the easiest way is one of the six sigma management principles, No?
