By Donovan Cage

SYNOPSIS:
When a newly assigned Marine Security Guard steps into the chaotic heart of Bangkok’s U.S. Embassy, he’s met with more than protocol and post duty. Caught between internal rivalries, questionable diplomacy, and a detachment that plays by its own rules, he’ll have to sink or swim fast.

MSG: Bangkok
Big thanks to everyone who checked out the logline for MSG: Bangkok.
This one’s already landed 2nd Prize in the Fade In Comedy Awards and is starting to carve out its own cult lane.
Black ops meets black comedy, and Bangkok’s never looked sweatier.
Grateful for the support.
MSG Nation runs deep.

If Generation Kill and Barry had a misfit baby stationed in Bangkok — this is it. Real Marine stories, black comedy, and embassy chaos.
Thanks for the views and welcome to MSG Nation.
Created by a real Marine Embassy Security Guard. This is MSG — raw, real, and ready for deployment.

MSG is not your typical military thriller.
It’s the only franchise of its kind that blends geopolitical tension, kinetic action, and grounded Marine realism, then rips the rulebook in half. MSG breaks the fourth wall, slams you with punchy voiceover, and throws you into the chaos alongside characters who feel like your fire team.
This isn’t war porn, this is MSG Nation: raw, irreverent, and built on the kind of dark humor only Marines walk the fine line of.
Think Generation Kill meets The Boys, with Barry’s bite.
Collaboration welcome.
MSG NATION — OOH-RAH!

MSG BANGKOK: COVER ME, I'M FUCKED sounds like an exciting Military Thriller, Donovan Cage! And catchy title. I think your logline needs more info. Right now, it's just the setup. I suggest adding the story goal and stakes.

Hard.
