Dan, probably a wise choice.
Back to the OP's post - comedy does not always translate well from one culture to another.

Expand commentOne more thing. Ideas are worthless. The value comes in how you write them. There are hundreds of movies that are exactly the same as each other. The other thing that will stop people from helping you quicker than slapping them in the face is "I can't tell you my idea".
