There was a Spi...dea. (Sony, Spider-Man Producer Quest)

"Okay, I want Peter Parker as the protagonist... hmm... beauty and happiness in the face of adversity could be a good theme for the game. Spider-Man's world is... melancholy, and things aren't the greatest, but he fights for the most in every single moment" You said with a smile.

"Alright sir, now... what about the number of enemies?" The writer had asked.

"Six is a meaningful number in the Spider-Verse. That should be appropriate for a... sinister cast" You said.

"Of course sir, we'll get right onto work for it!" The writer said, before quickly leaving you to your own devices.

You'd hired Michael B. Jordan as Luke Cage, with Jamie Foxx taking the role of Willis Stryker.

Parisa Fitz-Henley was Reva Connors, James Remar was Noah Burnstein, Theo Rossi was Shades, Chance Kelly was Albert Rackham, Donald Glover was Cockroach Hamilton, Terry Crews was cast as Big Ben Donovan, Laurence Fishburne was Curtis Carr, Mahershala Ali was Moses Magnum.

And finally, you decided to not add any references to Daredevil for now.

It was time to begin filming for Luke Cage.

Romance Chemistry: 1!

So, first off... the romantic chemistry of this movie was an absolute trainwreck. You honestly didn't know that Michael and Parisa would hate each other so much on and off of set...

What the fuck had happened!? You were just... honestly so confused with how much they had seemed to hate each other, that it had thrown you for a loop.

Protagonist Chemistry: 107.

Thankfully, the chemistry between Michael's Luke Cage was great with Laurence Fishburne's Curtis Carr as he was somewhat the closest thing to a co-protagonist within the movie.

Antagonist Chemistry: 72.

The chemistry between the two closest things to antagonists in this movie, Albert Rackham and Noah Burnstein was... pretty good, but for the most part... passable.

It wasn't great, but it was certainly above average.

Carl Lucas/Luke Cage (Michael B. Jordan) Screen Presence: 100!

Michael had been an absolutely phenomenal Carl Lucas, you honestly couldn't see anyone else within the role.

His range as the character was simply... amazing, and you loved watching every second of his acting... unless he was on screen with Parisa's Reva Connors.

Willis Stryker (Jamie Foxx) Screen Presence: 95.

Jamie Foxx's Willis Stryker was highly compelling to watch, and you honestly had a lot of fun watching him in the flashbacks with Michael's Luke Cage, and Parisa's Reva Connors.

Herman Schultz/The Shocker (Alfie Allen) Screen Presence: 90.

Alfie Allen was once again, simply a delight in this movie. Sure, he didn't have nearly as large of a role, but when he showed up? He was incredibly entertaining, to the point, that you gave him a few more scenes, with him engineering his own makeshift, crappy offshoot of Shocker Gauntlets to fight alongside Luke Cage in the riot.

Reva Connors (Parisa Fitz-Henley) Screen Presence: 82.

Thankfully, other than the absolutely dreadful romance... Parisa's Reva was definitely good everywhere else. You would probably be forced to cut her out of the movie entirely, if she was as bad on her own, as she was in the romance... though, that couldn't be completely attributed to her.

Noah Burnstein (James Remar) Screen Presence: 100!

James Remar had done great, playing a completely amoral, sinister scientist in his take on Noah Burnstein. It was honestly fun to watch him be so deliciously evil in his experiments!

He was just so much fun! You honestly loved his performance, and felt the need to get him in another movie. You couldn't just waste this performance on a single one!

Herman "Shades" Alvarez (Theo Rossi) Screen Presence: 69.

You don't know what it was... but Theo's take on Shades was... practically hypnotizing, in how calming and relaxing he played the character.

Whenever you saw a scene with him in it, you were nearly put to sleep with how relaxed his sheer presence had made you.

Albert Rackham (Chance Kelly) Screen Presence: 43.

Chance Kelly seemed quite hesitant to actually act... like a racist guard, constantly hesitating before saying a racist slur, and then immediately apologizing to Michael, it would've been nice... if he didn't keep doing it during filming!

At least his chemistry with James Remar's Noah Burnstein was pretty good.

There would definitely need to be reshoots.

Cockroach Hamilton (Donald Glover) Screen Presence: 90.

Donald Glover had been delightfully crazy, in his performance of Cockroach Hamilton. Honestly? He was intensely interesting to watch, every time he came on screen.

Also, thank God he was fine with the cockroaches all around his body whenever he was on screen. You don't know what hell it would've been, if he had freaked out at all on set.

It was as if your eyes were glued onto the character, every time he appeared.

Big Ben Donovan (Terry Crews) Screen Presence: 93.

Terry Crews was incredibly fascinating to watch, as a calm, collected, and methodical lawyer trying to get his client a non-guilty verdict. You'll be honest... after the Old Spice commercials? You thought he was only able to do intense energy, but this performance definitely showed off his exceptional range.

You definitely needed to add him to some future projects. He could be a fun ally or enemy to Daredevil, when it comes to defending or prosecuting clients.

Curtis Carr (Laurence Fishburne) Screen Presence: 97.

Laurence had made Curtis Carr more of a super-genius, mentor figure to Carl Lucas than anything that he was portrayed as in the comics. His performance was so good that you and Quentin had agreed to give him more scenes, you'd even added one of him creating his transmutation gun from practically scratch, and given him the chance to use it on one of the rioting prisoners, turning him into stone and petrifying him in place.

Moses Magnum (Mahershala Ali) Screen Presence: 91.

Mahershala Ali had come in with one goal in mind. Making Moses Magnum a scary son of a bitch, when it came down to his bottom line. And he certainly delivered.

Just watching the scenes of him berating Noah Burnstein for his carelessness when it came to his experiments had given you chills. The look of genuine fear on James Remar's face simply added to the scene.

Production Quality: 85.

Production had gone swimmingly, with no problems whatsoever. Thank God... you don't know what would've happened, if any problem had arisen. Though, you just know that you wouldn't be happy at all.

Choreography: 98.

The choreography was amazing as well, the riot fight with Luke Cage, The Shocker, and Chemistro was simply amazing to witness, even though it wasn't originally in the script, you had simply loved it.

You just couldn't see this movie failing!

Sound Design: 83.

The sound design was good, you could literally hear the toughness of Luke Cage's skin, with how bullets had literally just... stopped, upon contacting him.

Editing: 82.

The editing was good, it was slow when it was needed, and fast when it was needed. There wasn't really much else to say on it.

VFX: 35.

And finally, the VFX? It was... not very good.

Sure, it wasn't the worst you had seen, but... The Shocker's makeshift gauntlets looked like... well, they looked worse than they were intended to.

And the scene with Curtis turning a man into stone? It just looked comedic, like something that came out of a PS1 game.

Thankfully, you were going to be able to reshoot scenes and get your VFX team to do their jobs! Or you would've been in a lot of trouble.

You have 3 Reshoot Points for each Month of reshooting you want to do.

[] Romance Chemistry: 1.
[] Albert Rackham (Chance Kelly): 43.
[] VFX: 35.

After that, you had to give the movie a name... there were a few options, at least.

What's the film's title?

[] Luke Cage.
[] Luke Cage: The Powerman.
[] Luke Cage: Ryker's Island.
[] Luke Cage: In Chains.

Please, for the love of... whatever, use a Plan Vote Format.

Alright, other than that. Well... I'm really tired, but holy shit. Those rolls.

Some were so fucking good.

And other were... the romance roll.

Also, can I just say... it is such a bitch to add the links to every roll. It takes me like ten to twenty minutes of this absolutely tedious, mind-numbing work.

Yeah...

Going to bed now.

But... thoughts on Bruce Campbell as Mysterio. Or Daniel Radcliffe as Bullseye? Just curious, because I had that last idea on a car ride.
