You decided to have Edgar Wright return as the director of Spider-Man, it was practically a no-brainer, after all!
After that, you decided to try and talk to the higher-ups about possibly giving you a higher budget.
Hopefully, it'd go well.
Budget Negotiation Roll: 85.
Things went... surprisingly well, you'd managed to talk the higher-ups into adding quite a bit more to the budget.
You were sitting, reasonably comfortably at $120 Million, now. That was definitely a lot more to work with than before.
After that, you had gone to Avi Arad, just wanting to talk to your good friend, and... maybe ask him for something.
Avi Arad Networking Roll: 115.
As it turns out, Avi was really happy to see you.
"Terry! My friend, it's amazing to see you! Feels like it's been ages! How have you been!?" Avi said jovially, as he gave you a hug, "Come! Sit! Do you want something to drink? Because, man. You have made us an absolute mint!"
"No, Avi. I'm fine... in fact, I came to ask something of you" You said with a smile.
"Oh, anything, man. What do you need?" Avi asked with a grin, as he sat down in a seat.
"Alright, so..." You started.
What do you want Avi Arad to do? (Depending on what you want done, it could instantly happen, or need a roll. Once again, I'm only doing this due to the high roll)
[] "I want another scriptwriter for my next film" Next film gains +10 to Scripts.
[] "I want the other higher-ups to greenlight my next film" No need for Appeal Roll's next film. Auto-success.
[] "I want to get more funding for the next movie" Next film gains +10 to Funding.
[] "I want to see about getting the rights to a character" Roll is dependent on the company.

-[] Medium Roll: "Ben 10 has been pretty popular... and it's not too far out there to see him as a part of our franchise"
-[] High Roll: "Sure, Mortal Kombat has definitely seen better days... but, if we got the rights to the characters we could tell some pretty interesting stories, and have more fun team-ups"
-[] High Roll: "Street Fighter's pretty damn fun... maybe we could do something with that?"
-[] Medium Roll: "Danny Phantom is pretty neat. Maybe we could add it to the franchise?"
-[] Low Roll: "Have you seen that show, Venture Bros? I honestly love it. And would like to see it as a part of the franchise"
-[] High Roll: "Spawn. That's all I have to say, isn't it? No? Alright, let's try to get the rights to Spawn"
-[] High Roll: "Gargoyles was an amazing show... maybe we could do something with it?"
-[] Medium Roll: "Remember the old Dick Tracy comic strips, and the movie? Maybe we could do something with it?"

-[] Medium Roll: "I've found this... interesting novel online. It's called Worm, maybe we could see about getting its rights?"
-[] Ridiculously High Roll: "So, hear me out. Harry Potter. Wait- no! Don't leave! The idea will be great!"
-[] High Roll: "Percy Jackson... it could definitely be an interesting way to introduce the gods to the universe!"
-[] Medium Roll: "Have you read the comic Wanted? It could definitely be an interesting comic to adapt... properly"
-[] High Roll: "Hear me out... Power Rangers, they could definitely be profitable, right!?"
-[] High Roll: "Have you seen The Incredibles? That could be fun, and profitable if we manage to get the rights to it, couldn't it?"
-[] High Roll: "Avi, my man. Imagine the movie and toy sales, if we got GI Joe as a part of our franchise! It could be great!"
[] "I want to find more directors for the next movie" Next film gains +10 to Directors.
[] "I want to get more actors for the next movie" Next film gains +10 to Actors.
[] Write-in: (In case there's anything I missed)
After that meeting, you had gone and tried to convince Sony to buy the rights to Dresden Files.
Sony Negotiation Roll: 83.
The higher-ups were fine with you trying to gain the rights to the Dresden Files, and now... you were going to have a meeting with the author to try and get the live-action rights to the character.
Jim Butcher Negotiation Roll: 92.
Jim was absolutely happy to give you the rights to the series, for a cost of course. But, you were happy to pay for it.
Now... you had to get to work on casting the characters in Spider-Man 2.

Please, give me some casting ideas. I have a few, but I'd like some more.
