Hm, I like the idea of it! I think the whole idea of the worlds of a mermaid and rockstar colliding is cool. But to be honest I'm not really sure about the actual plot. So basically it's about Marina turning into a human and dating Jason? I just feel like there's no actual plot. I think there needs to be so more complications and depth. The mermaid concept is basically irrelevant if the whole movie is just about them dating and then she leaves because she overheard him saying hurtful things about her. I like the idea I just don't think there's much depth.

I have a little idea myself if you don't mind hearing it. You probably won't use it but my idea is that maybe when the tide comes in and Jason drowns, she quickly goes to save him but sees that he has too much water in his lungs and he is likely to die. So she takes him to her parents to see what they can do. The only way to save him is to turn him into a mermaid. So they do. Jason wakes up underwater and when he sees his new self he freaks out. Maybe, Jason has always seen Marina out in the water watching his concerts and he was always skeptical of her because she only watched in the water and never in the crowd. So when he sees her lying by her bed, he freaks out and he's like "You're that weird girl from the ocean! What did you do to me?!" So then Marina explains what happened and it takes sometime for it to sink in to Jason but he eventually accepts it. Meanwhile, Leah, who saw Jason almost drown but couldn't get to him in time, is outside by the ocean with the police, scared and looking all over for Jason. Now maybe in the movie, mermaids' tails can turn to legs when they are completely dry but whenever they touch any water at all their legs turn back to their tails (like in H20). So Jason decides he'll just stick to legs for the rest of his life and avoid water. Maybe Marina's parents tell Marina to go with Jason out into the real world to teach him how to handle his newfound powers and everything. And then that's where the rest of the story picks up only the focus is more on Marina teaching Jason the ways of the mermaid while trying to keep it a secret and through that they develop a relationship.
