ok so theres a guy and he figures out the secret to life........that he is the only one in the universe...every one and everything and every event is a projection of his mind that he sub concesly creates.....and theres a guy named normand who tells him this secret..... and normand is the god like figure...he sits and watches in a room...but the main character cant decide if normand is to a projection.....he gets lonely and detached..and feels everything is fake.....

where could this go....should i stick to one of the other 2 or maby expand this one?

I liked both of your other ideas as well, but this one might be able to work, too. It seems like it could be expanded relatively easily, such as by the man meeting another person who is actually a real human.

I'm trying to think of a way to possibly mix together this idea with the one about the man in purgatory that needs to kill his wife ( http://filmmaking.net/fnetforum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=6166). It just seems like something could be done to put both ideas to use, since one involves demons and this one involves God or a God-like figure. If I think of anything I'll share it here.

Seems a bit hard to film as no matter how you do it our main guy will probably come off as insane and the audience will be expecting a twist by the setup since they all know they are not figments of this guys imagination.

Sorry, no real ideas on this one. You do have sort of a twilight zone sort of thing going with your ideas that will serve you well in time if you flesh them out and film them.
