The Batman is now off production.
Awesome stuff. Seems like The Batman will be one of the best movies ever made and we are a contender for the definitive Batman and the one that most people will think of in regards to the character. Everything's high and good all around with glorious fight scenes and SFX courtesy of our involvement. We're definitely up for the running for Best Director and Actor, and I think due to his nat 100 that John may get a nomination for Best Supporting Actor.
Oh I know.
And:
D2 => 2
Blowout was made.
Awesome! John Travolta gets to star in a Lucasfilms movie and with him being the protagonist of a Noir thriller, this and Batman may be the big break John needs to break out of typecasting and do whatever he wants.

Well Joseph has just successfully negotiated a thousand people to refugee to the west.
Oh thank the Lord! The O'Brian family legend really goes and it appears like Joseph has transformed himself from being Bruce O'Brian's father and a New York community figure into an anti-Communist patriot, humanitarian and Catholic hero. We definitely need to make some movies about him and I guess Joseph earned Bruce and Carrie's first son being named after him.
this is me...
I just want to get to the 80's so I can bombard you with so many bonuses, actions and other stuff, but can't because if these turns are going to take forever.
So I'm caught in a pickle of wanting to get to the 80's so that things can finally really get going.
Also me:
I'm too tired to deal with this.
Take the 12 actions and let me sleep, you have successfully bullied me into letting you keep two actions on a regular and keeping it going.
It's okay Magoose, this is a more than great outcome and you continue to be an awesome QM! Looking forward to the 80s and you do whatever you need to do to get there.
[X] Plan Empire Rising
-[X]The Lucasfilms Christmas Party of 1978: Time to have a party! DC: 0
-[X]The Toho Fuck ups: So Toho broke a contract. Time to make them pay for it! DC: ???
-[X]The Next Mike Eisner Action Plan of 1978: Mike needs to meet up with the directors, Alan... and You, to get everything going. This year was a success. But it could be better. DC: 0 (Begin a miniturn to develop new movies)
-[X]The Final Preparations: George was ready, and he gave you the script, the story and his notes. "What You've been busy, so I just uh… did some work for you." DC: ???
-[X]Cementing some Bridges: Tomino and Ralph both had two differing takes… but now is not the time for fighting. DC: 30
-[X]The Hokadio Connection: You joined Mike to go to Japan to speak to the Minster of Culture. DC: 20
-[X]The Sunrise: So time to cement Sunrise as a truly awesome Subsidiary DC: 20 (Also cost 20 million)
-[X]The Media Blitz of Conan The Barbarian: You are looking at the media list that Mike put up. "Alright, who's first?" He said. (Linetail what you want to do next) DC: ???
--[X] While you're in Japan, arrange for an interview with a popular Japanese news outlet to promote Conan. You speak fluent Japanese and Japan is a big fan of Lucasfilms, take the opportunity to ensure that Conan gets a big response overseas.
-[X]Brandon Needs to Graduate, Part 2: Brandon. Guess what, I'm going to get you through accelerated classes. Good luck. DC: ???
-[X]There is Training: So Brandon, you have been taught by many of Bruce's Other students, well time to see if you're ready to learn from… you. DC:20/???
-[X]A Beautiful Night: Carrie snuggled you close. "Is it wrong that I enjoy every moment of this?" She asked. "I want us to have this forever."
-[X]Brandon and Mary: Brandon frowned at the costume. "I am not going to continue this charade." "yes you will, or your mother will hear about this."
Okay, so once again limited upon obligations, but now we at least got Batman out of the way so we can focus our full attention on Lucasfilms greatness.
Attend the Christmas party. It lead to big developments last time and it's nice to keep the tradition for solidarity between the company, celebrate success for both films proper and Dreamworks, prep for Star Wars, and perhaps welcome Sunrise. Also I really hope Mary and George III are able to meet at the party.
Make sure that Toho obeys the contract and we are able to keep releasing their films, but if we don't it's okay because it only lasts for two more years and we can go to other companies like Toei. Do the Mike Eisner master plan so we know what to do for both Lucasfilms proper and Dreamworks for the next year, lots of scripts, so little resources. Also, I think Magoose promised we may get more producers and directors when we do this so that's something to look forward to.
See the Empire Strikes script and try to cement it as great. Help Tomino and Ralph compromise and get the best art. Speak to the Culture Ministry and secure Hokkaido as our filming spot so we don't have to go to that hellhole in Norway. Buy Sunrise so we have awesome anime. Also while in Japan, take the time to promote Conan to our Japanese audience, really play off of our fluency.
Help Brandon with his school work, though I think Bruce is applying too much of himself in Brandon to make him take advanced classes and graduate early, but who knows. Train Brandon and continue to make him a badass. A nice night with Carrie to unwind, and Brandon and Mary stuff.
Unfortunately I have to eliminate the Linda and Shannon action in order to make up for this rare opportunity to promote Conan in Japan and help for the fact we've neglected the media blitz for most of the year. Also want to call Dad, but can't because of limited action pool, though it makes sense to hold it off because most of this turn he'll be in Romania or in the process of organizing the evacuation, so we save it for next turn.
