-[X]Carries Oscar Interruption: Carrie asked if she could take a three-day break so that she could appear at the Oscars, seeing as she's nominated for 4 of them. Rolled:
D100 => 92
To think that George agreed to this, you would have been crazy to allow the two stars of one of the movies you were making to leave for the Oscars. Well, George also knew that this was too damn important to just ignore.
He also had a few ideas to film some scenes while you were gone. The few scenes that didn't involve you and Carrie. Thankfully, they should be enough for him to get through the last bit of the script, and possibly even get the Fight done between Mifune and Prowese… Or Peter if George listened to you about putting an experienced swordsman underneath the Armor.
Sure it might be enough for some of the scenes when they were nearing the end, but the problem was… David was not a swordsman, and he had no desire to learn anything beyond the basics. Which itself was a problem, but one that could be fixed. If David actually accepted that he was just the man in the suit.
But all that was forgotten when you arrived at the red carpet, for the Academy's Oscars. You were nearly blinded by all the flashing cameras and the number of people that wanted autographs. And the number of people from the business that was there.
There may be a strike going on, but even the strike and the studios knew that stopping or delaying the Oscars would not be a good thing. It was too much of a blow for either side to cancel it.
You held Carrie's hand as she squeezed it, as you both waved, walking towards the entrance with so many people taking pictures. "Are you smiling?" She asked.
"Of course." You whispered back, as you both got closer. "I think you're going to blow it all out of the water." You smiled.
"I know, I just can't wait till you're nominated." She said. "It would be nice if we won them both together."
"I don't know, we have quite a long time to do that." You then sighed. "Do you have a screenplay worming in your head?"
"Not yet, but I can think of a way for one to appear." She then stood on her tiptoes and you kissed her.
"I think we've given the press enough for the coming weeks?" You asked. You looked back to see some of the other actors there were not happy with the display of young love.
"I think we have. We're clogging the air." She then held your arm as you took her toward the chambers.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Carrie's Oscar wins:
D4 => 3
"And the Oscar for Best Actress Goes To… Carrie O'Brian, For Some Nights!"
"And the Oscar For Best Original Screenplay Goes To Carrie O'Brian. For Some Nights!"
"And the Oscar For Best Original Song Goes To Carrie O'Brian. For Some Nights!"
You then waited for the final nomination that Carrie herself was nominated for, Original Score.
"And the Winner for Best Original Score Goes To…
Nino Rota and Carmine Coppola The Godfather Part Two.
"
Carrie was shocked, but she only smiled and hugged your arm. "You didn't win?" You said quietly.
"I've got enough for me."
---------------------------------------
Best Picture Winner:
Godfather Part 2:
D100 => 74+30 (Canon)=104
Some Nights:
D100 => 55+45(Universal Fuckery)=100
"And the Oscar for Best Picture Goes to… The Godfather Part Two."
And while Some Nights battled with the Godfather all night… it didn't take the crown of the night.
Reward: Carrie Has won Three Academy Awards, For Best Actress, Best Original Screenplay, and Best Original Song.
John Travolta won the Academy Award for Best Actor.
But the Awards went about as Canon did.
--------------------------------------------------------------
-[X]Into the Trash!: Why the hell would George allow this dangerous stunt? Sure you don't see why not, but you want to make sure Mark is okay. Rolled:
D100 => 98+30=128
You and Mark were both looking at the dirty, trashy water. "So… what, you're going to make me hold my breath?"
"No. not at all, you are going to hold onto my leg, and if you need help getting up, I will be able to help you without needing to look too hard." You replied.
"I don't see how that is a problem, I'm only going to be under a few feet of water?" Mark replied.
"A few feet of water with trash and metal on top of it." You stated as you pulled a piece of the metal and plastic prop. "What if you hit your head and it knocks you out, and you're stuck underwater? That few feet of water is going to be the death of you. And what if I can't find you If I decide to dive in."
You saw Mark begin to think. "Oh."
"God damn right oh." You responded. "I have been lucky to get training for some of the stunts I do, and I always prepare for them. I never go in halfway, because I can get hurt or worse."
"Didn't you carry people out of the set fire that one time on MASH?" He asked. "I doubt you prepared for that?"
"No, but that was a special circumstance that I never want to have happen to me again." You replied. "So promise me to"
"I will." He replied.
"Good." You replied.
Reward: The Stunt went off without a hitch. And Mark didn't get hurt, save for water in his ear.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-[X]There is Underwear in Space George: Carrie has a problem. For the first few days of shooting, she was not able to wear a bra, and it was making her uncomfortable. Hopefully, George can listen to reason. Rolled:
D100 => 69
You looked at George and crossed your arms. "I don't want to do this George, but I have to. Why the hell does Carrie have to wear tape?"
George was looking at something. "Well, there is no underwear in space." He said.
You looked at Carrie, who was giggling before you threw the pair of underwear at him. "Then I will not wear underwear, since clearly it does not exist in your space film! And everyone else will do the same as well."
You then looked at the box you had prepared. "Try keeping the cast around if they can't be comfortable George."
George became visibly embarrassed at that before he looked at you. "Is that?"
"From Everyone. Even Peter, who found it quite amusing when I asked him." You stated. "Sometimes George, sticking to your artistic vision is a good thing. This… is not a hill you want to die on."
He looked at the box. George realized his mistake. "I'll work the script around. Just… don't open the box."
Good.
Reward: There is now underwear in space.
George kinda deserves the prank though.
---------------------------------------------
Production Rolls:
D100 - 40 => 33
Well Everything is going smoothly, besides George having to quickly change a few things in the script, and there is a reshoot of the single scene that Carrie was in to allow her to have underwear on, thankfully, one that the costume department came up with.
Director Roll:
D100 + 30 => 84
You almost thought that George was losing his touch after he had… been embarrassed by you.
But he managed to keep the schedule. Barely.
Thankfully, just because he was able to rest, and there were so many fun things to do.
And while he never did any fights before… he had some masters helping him making it easier.
------------------------------------
The Stunt Rolls:
D100 + 30+30 => 155
You actually told George that you wanted to take over for the stunts behind the camera. Mostly to make sure everyone stayed safe.
After Peter almost tore his pants during the testing of crossing the beam, you both made some adjustments so that Make wouldn't notice.
And then, you had your moments of making sure both of them were going to be okay with it.
The Rope swing was perfect. Even if you wanted Carrie to shoot the blaster with her eyes open, that might have helped. But she was trying her best.
-----------------------------------------------------------
The Hallway Fight:
D100 + 30 + 50 => 180
You thanked God that George listened to you about putting Peter in the suit for the fight. David might have been angry about it for a moment before he saw the fight that the two of them had trained for a month on.
A symphony of violence, control, and rage. Mifune showed just how much of a master he was, and Peter… you would argue he was one of the greatest swordsmen alive, and it was a pleasure to watch him do his work.
You may not have ever seen an action movie like this… but you were sure that you would love to see it fully edited.
Reward: You have a legendary fight on your hands.
------------------------------------------------------------------
What do you Do:
(Choose 3)
[]Preparing for The Big Scenes: You are going to get ready for the big shoot-out scenes in the hallway. Everyone is getting a god damn dressing down to make it look good.
[]The Droids You are Looking For: Anthony and Kenny are trying to make things interesting, and you haven't had a chance to spend time with them to get to know them.
[]The Hero: Mark is slowly getting into his groove, but you wanna know just how it would be for you and him to get along.
[]The Master: Mifune is still trying his best to survive this production. However, there is a small problem. He wants to…visit a Shakespeare company production.
[]Darth Vader's Boots: David Prowse was always going to have trouble in the suit, mostly because he knew his voice was not going to be in the final product. You need to find a way to tell him that it's a damn good thing.
[]The Grand Moff: Peter is… well he didn't expect much from you. That was until you and George started talking and then got frightened that you were… just as driven as George was.
[]The Princess: Carrie just had one more scene before she was sent back home, with all of them done. She just wanted to make it right.
[]John Williams' Masterpiece: He has part of the score done, and wants to put it on a rough scene just to see how it goes.
