Zack Morris(This is the summary for my proposed big-budget reboot of Saved by the Bell, titled Saved by the Bell Begins. If you missed the intro, including casting and excessive rationale, you can find it here.)

At the start of the movie, Zack Morris is finishing an action lawyer case for his star actoring client, who is Johnny Dakota, and that means Zack has to save Johnny from the marijuana terrorists’ rocket-powered water-blimp, and get him back to court in time to do a wink-and-click at the booty babes in the jury and win the trophy from the judge.

Zack does all of these things and captures the bad guys, because that means big money and celebrity-lawyer-based fame. Johnny wants to give him pot doobies, but instead Zack just takes sideline-access tickets to the Bayside City Tigers championship football game, where AC Slater is the star quarterback, and on the side he is a pro wrestler and a baseball player and a basketball star and has a pet chameleon named Artie that he keeps in his helmet, and Artie reminds him of the trick plays he can run to be a superstar and win the big game. Johnny is being famous and rings the Bayside City History Tradition Bell to start the game, and while that’s happening, Zack and Slater are having a new rivalry and doing double-flirting with a cheerleader, and she is Kelly Kapowski, and that’s a triple-word-score love triangle.

That’s when they announce the Presidential election results, and Rod Belding wins, and he is Keanu Reeves. Everyone is really excited because now Keanu will do his Special President Promise to install nuclear oil rigs all over Bayside City, and that means the people can get all the nuclear oil out of their part of the planet, and everyone will be rich when Keanu sells it to the gas stations for them.

Zack and Slater are doing their new snap-fingers handshake and being sorta-best-friends, when President Belding’s big brother Richard, who is Mr. Belding, who is Kevin Costner, is like, “WHAT IS GOING ON HERE…?” and he takes everyone to his special airplane, where his spy assistant Miss Bliss, who is Claire Forlani, and his spy nerd, who is Screech Powers, tells them that the nuclear oil is only a cover for Keanu’s real plan, and that the real plan is much worse, and they’re sure of this because they don’t even know what that plan is, and that’s the logic meme for this part of the movie.

(Oy! Part 2 tomorrow – if you found this enjoyable, you may want to check out my movie book, Brad Radby’s Brad Radby, which is online totally for free. Keanu is up to no good over there, as well. Also follow me on Twitter if you like things.)

    Ok, Saved by the Bell is great and all, but no comments on the Shaq trade rumors? None?

    It's a good move to trade Ben's expiring deal for Shaq's expiring deal, unless they think they can get something better for it, like NUCLEAR OIL.

    Do you, as a LBJ fan, worry that if the win next year with Shaq, it becomes Shaq helping yet another young shooter win, and not LBJ's win? LBJ will then have to go on a long journey to prove he can win as the star. Kobe II.

    Nah not really. One, I'll probably have a heart attack and die if Cleveland ever wins anything. Moreso, we really haven't seen that with Wade. Shaq's well past being an alpha dawg.

    you know, i'm really excited about this. however, will it ruin everything that i'm gonna read what happens before i get to see it?

    also, will any of it be in 3, or perhaps even 4-d? (think about it… smell-o-vision… make it happen!)

    Nah I think your experience will be even more amazing because it can be like seeing an impossible dream come to life.

    I like how you think – what about 5-D?

    I'm going to go ahead and ask the question that everyone wants answered…..will there be any nudity in this film? If so, can I suggest an online poll to determine who sheds their clothing?

    Also, when I read Brad Radby's name I always think it's the dude who did the Rush Hour movies. That really doesn't have anything to do with the movie but it just popped in my head.

    Brett Ratner – and yeah that's who you should think of. Radby is 2/3 Ratner and 1/3 Bay.

    Lark Voorhies is the correct answer to the first question.

    Brett Ratner….he dated one of the Williams sister's for awhile and the chick off the noxzema commercials. Very slick.

    Wallace + Pavs for Jamison + Mike James or 5th pick – per Cavalier Attitude

    Josh Smith could be on the block is all the rumors are. Rock did a big Rock-esque writeup here: http://www.waitingfornextyear.com/?p=13247

    I'd love either, but Smith is the better deal IMO. Though if Jamison + #5 is true, that's money. Jamison's contract is hefty and goes for a while, but could keep LBJ around if they mesh.

    “the chick off the noxzema commercials.” Manslaughteress.

    Does this whole thing hapen before or after the SBTB reunion on Jimmy Fallon?

    We need to stop that from happening – I believe there's only so much pop culture ammo in this franchise revival.
