I can't say your too off the mark. I love the Crazy Joe idea. I'm a sucker
for a second villian: Jabba the Hutt, Sauroman, etc. As long as both
characters are equaly strong. As for sequals, having grown up during the
80's, trilogies are my bread and butter: Star Wars, Back to the Future(!),
etc. I even liked the "Prophecy" trilogy, even though it wasn't in the
80's. I identify more with the serials, like the old "Flash Gordon" and
"Commando Cody" and love the concept of chonicles like "Sherlock Holmes"
movies and to a lesser extent "Tarzan". I hope the "Narnia Chronicles"
lives up to it's name. But I see Chononauts (Chonocles) as a series of
movies, like what Sam Raimi did with "Hercules" before it was a T.V. Show.
So, sequal is not too far....Its too close. It's time to go all the way.
Sign some stars for a 20-movie deal. Yowza!

I just think that maybe Crazy Joe would make for a better antagonist. I
mean, how do you stop a guy who's hell-bent on destroying the Universe?
That's got to make for a better narrative. Hmm... Wait, maybe we can do
both! Have Squa Tront be the villain in the first movie, and then do Crazy
joe in the sequel! Am I reaching too far? Yeah, I thought so too.

Why are there no evolved dinosaur time-travelers, like those from "We're
Back". A dino-chrononaut from an alternate reality featuring the survival
of dinosaurs. I understand the time line doesn't go back that far, but I
digress. Every film or story needs an antagonist, why not Squa Tront. I
read Stephen King's "It", and after a while I started siding with the bad
guy (I didn't like the main characters).
But I can see I.D. packs with time line card replacements and other
relevant artifacts being offered as an expantion pack: New I.D.s,
Linchpins relevant to them, Replacement ripplepoint which include the new
and old affected dates, New patches, Artifacts featured in the I.D.s back
stories, New action and timewarp cards, and so on.
Oh, After Squa Tront leaves to go back to his own time, the actor
playing Squa Tront shows up to prevent WW3, but not in his bug suit.

On another thread, I heard someone mention Squa Tront being evil. I
don't believe that he is. He's just some guy trying to get back to his
home reality, like everyone else. Sure, his alternate reality invovles
the demolition of human kind, but so what? Our reality (or at least, MY
reality) depends on the destruction of the dinosaurs. And anyway, after
he gets home, we can just ripple WW3 right out of existence.
But, as for the movie, I've been kicking the idea around in my head for a
while. I don't have an actual script, but I've been thinking about a
zany comedy about two moronic Temporal Mechanics and thier bumbling
advetures in time travel.
If you have an actual script, we'd all love to see that. Right, guys?

Interesting you mention that. I'm in an Intermediate Playwriting class,
and I'm planning on writing for my final project a play based on
Chrononauts. Obviously, if it were ever actually staged, I would need
Looney Labs' permission, but I don't think I need permission just to
write it for a class. Basically, it's about how Andy becomes a
Chrononaut and helps the other Chrononauts realize how much good they
can do for the world, when until then they have been going about their
jobs without any compassion at all.
