Charmed Movie series-how could it be done?

Saw this at another site and found it interesting.

The OP wrote:

Something folks I was thinking about as I caught a rerun of Harry Potter on my television.

We have eight seasons worth of material that can be altered or changed. If Charmed were a movie series consisting of 7 films, 8 if you made the last one a 2-parter. So I leave it to the Charmed Cafe Community, how would you construct the series and make them into a collection of 7 (8 if you make the last one a 2-part film) films?

Here are my ideas. This is my first time plotting charmed stories or ideas, I've never written a fanfiction story in my life. So baby steps. :)

Charmed: The Power of Three (Film 1)

Charmed: Witches In Time (Film 2)
Based on That 70s Episode

Charmed: Deja Vu All Over Again (Film 3)

Charmed: Mortality Bites (Film 4)
Elements of Mortality Bites and P3H20

Charmed: All Hell Breaks Loose (Film 5)

(Nope, mine *doesn't* end with a sappy ending...I'll try to come up with a synopsis later)

I love the idea of Charmed in film format; something I've always thought would be a good idea. This feels like a good time to share my own fanfic ideas for the show, but in this case I will obviously present them as movies/films instead of seasons.

Charmed I: The Rule of Three
(Elements of Something Wicca This Way Comes, Wicca Envy, Feats of Clay, When Bad Warlocks Turn Good and Which Prue It It, Anyway?)

However, the soon realise that their Grams has left them much more than her house.

Together, united, they vanquish Jeremy but learn that they are not yet out of danger.

Charmed VII: Axis
(Elements of Styx Feet Under, Someone to Witch Over Me, Witchness Protection, Ordinary Witches, Extreme Makeover: World Edition, Charmageddon, Scry Hard, The Torn Identity and Gone with the Witches)

Leo struggles to adjust to live without powers and is approached by a powerful, seemingly neutral, force known as the Avatars who offer him and his family the chance to erase all Evil from the world so that they can lead normal lives once again. Leo joins their ranks in secret and becomes one of them and tries to slowly bring the sisters round to the idea. the sisters take the Avatars offer under serious consideration, especially as Phoebe has just given birth to Cole's child and is determined that he will live an normal childhood. Paige is vehemently opposed to the idea as erasing all demons would mean that she would never find her brother, Christopher. Also, her new love interest, Kyle Brody, has been researching the history of the Avatars and has reason to believe that they killed his parents.

Panicking, Paige turns to Imara, now the last remaining member of the Pentagram for help. Imara maintains that she can help her find Chris and urges her to convince Kyle to use his Avatar-vanquishing potion on Leo, but Leo murders him before he achieves this. Paige is furious and seeks solace with Imara once more, who finally takes her to her brother, who has been working as the head of an internet conglomerate in New York City. Unknown to Paige, Imara and her coven of Seers, the Triad, kidnapped Christopher as a child, as part of a massive demonic operation to raise magical children as Evil. The sisters search for the Triad and beg them to call a truce to stop Utopia. They eventually agree and the world is returned to normal. However, Imara later orders Christopher and Paige to attack the sisters, deeming them unfit to wield such power. The Matthews attack them, forcing them to flee.

Charmed VIII: The Seer Saw
(Elements of Kill Billie Vol. 2, Forever Charmed, Something Wicca This Way Goes, All Halliwell's Eve and The Witch is Back)

The Halliwells must face the inevitable and prepare themselves for a confrontation with their own cousins. The realise the mistake they have made by trusting the Avatars, and plan to vanquish Imara in the hope that they can get Paige back. Meanwhile, despite Christopher's insistence that the Halliwells must be vanquished, Paige struggles to accept that this is her destiny. Nevertheless, she goes along with Chris, agreeing that they sisters have become selfish with their powers, especially with the Avatars. Imara and the Triad watch over these unfolding events with satisfaction, predicting a clash between the Halliwells and the Matthews.

The five witches soon face off at the Manor, but the sheer volume of power creates a energy field and, due to their shared blood and magic, a magical Pentagram is formed and causes the Manor to explode. Before the sisters can readjust, they realise that the Pentagram has created a time portal which has stripped them of their powers and is travelling them through certain significant events in their family history. They meet all of their family members including Paige's parents and grandparents. They learn that Imara, the Seer, is at the heart of the Warrens' family difficulties. She and the Triad monitored all witches born with premonition power, considering it the most dangerous and precious magical ability, and instructed the warlocks Ruth Cobb and Matthew Tate to attack the Warrens. This set in motion Melinda's prophecy about the Charmed Ones and for 300 years they kept an eye on the family for their arrival. They made several plans to prepare for their rising - murdering the Rowes' brothers real parents and raising them; kidnapping Christopher Matthews - thus creating a self-fulfilling prophecy. All these events led to the final denouement, the Battle of the Warrens, which the Triad hoped would kill them all and leave them finally free to rule.

Once the sisters and Paige learn the truth, they find themselves back to the time just before the the Pentagram Battle but they are unable to convince Chris of the truth. He runs out, while the sisters devise a plan to vanquish Imara. They decide that to use Paige as bait (with her permission) to trap Imara. Paige lies to Imara that the Halliwells have escaped her clutches and suggests that they take in the Nexus to stop them. Imara takes the bait and arrives with Chris, thinking Paige is about to call the Nexus. She does so and the Nexus enters Imara. The sisters arrive and destroy the Nexus, vanquish Imara in the process, whilst Paige pulls Chris away from the action. Before he can react, she throws a power-stripping potion at him.

The movie ends with Piper discovering she is pregnant. She decides to invite the Matthews over for breakfast and tells everyone that they are going to write down their experiences in the Book of Shadows; thus extending the olive branch and and making the first small steps towards reconciliation.

I haven’t come up with titles for mine, but here’s how it would go.

Film 1: Elements of ‘Something Wicca This Way Comes’ and ‘The Witch's Back’

Film 2: Elements of ‘Pre-witched’ and ‘That 70's Episode’

Film 3: Elements of ‘Wicca Envy’ and ‘The Truth is Out There (and it Hurts)

Film 4: Elements of ‘Out of Sight’ and ‘All Halliwell’s Eve’

Film 5: Elements of ‘Sight Unseen’ and ‘Power Outage’

Film 6 is all my own:

Film 6 is my idea of what goes here.

Cole defects from evil to good after killing the Triad which infuriates the Source who sends bounty hunters to kill him.

Andy’s still trying to find out what is Prue’s weird secret that she won’t share.

Wounded badly the Charmed Ones not knowing Cole is Belthazar wonder how he can be healed knowing he wasn’t injured by human means.

Seeing Phoebe upset Leo reveals himself shocking the Halliwell’s healing Cole but not all of him surprising him greatly.

Leo explains about himself and the Elders then going on to say about Cole and why he didn’t heal properly owing that he must be a demon or something which the sisters find out about once Cole wakes up.

Phoebe hates and wants to kill him but Cole takes her somewhere and makes her see the truth about what happened to him really when his demonic mother killed his senator dad and how he was unwittingly raised by the Source before joining the Brotherhood and what occurred prior to meeting the Power of Three which Phoebe sees through multiple visions.

Cole stuck with the Brotherhood after finding out from a seer what really happened to his father and who killed him so that he could get close to them and find a way to kill the Source which got harder every time he transformed into Belthazar and being evil obviously.

The end shows the Source saying if his own minions can’t kill the Charmed Ones after the remaining bounty hunters are vanquished then he will have to do so himself, then summons the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.

Film 7 Is basically an extended version of ‘Apocalypse Not’ with the Source bringing about the end of the world with each Horseman doing their thing causing worldwide devastation and how the Charmed Ones manage to continue afterwards.
