    Hi Magoose here one of the guys helping Duke.

    So we have some bad news.

    The quest has been canceled as duke does not want to write it anymore.

    I'm going to ask if I can take over for it, because I like this quest, and it would be a shame to kill it

    TBF, Mags, you have been doing a lot of the heavylifting for the quest, so this will be in good hands. :)

    To be clear to everyone, this is just me burning out on imagination of the quest, since my muse has been hitting me over the head a lot with so many different ideas that I just can't find myself too interested in this.

    I'll still hang out here, though, since this still does have a sepcial place in my heart.

    I'd like to thank you all for making this a wonderful experience while it lasted.

    I'd also like to thank @Magoose, @Fluffy_serpent, and @Martin Noctis for doing so much to help prepare and write this quest. I couldn't have done it without you all. :D

    I'll see you all around.

    With so many regards, Duke William Of.

    • Colombia's Caper

    You were sitting at the table, and waiting for Alan, and the three important people here were as follows…

    Richard Donner, Christopher Reeves, and very surprisingly, Kathleen Kennedy.

    You had heard she was fired but that was not from Alan himself, so you were happy to see her.

    "So… Why are we here?" You asked.

    A moment passed before Alan, smiling and cheering, and smoking, and then sat down. "Alright, everyone. Thank you for coming."

    "Where is the board?" You asked, feeling something sinister building.

    Alan blew smoke. "They were… conspiring, and committed criminal conspiracy and fraud." There was a moment that passed before you realized what happened. "I had pressed charges against all of them… and the court ruled in my favor. Much of their assets in Colombia were seized, or used to repay for damages that they caused. While my company was more than happy to see that I managed to take out the trash…"

    He smiled. "As I was leading the case with Colombia only, they did not receive what I won, and saw that there was a significant loss in monetary investment." He then put out the cigarette and smiled. "But with the victory in court, I was able to not only pay them off but purchase Colombia wholesale. I own over 70% of the company now."

    That made your eyes bulge. "How?"

    "Well I gambled everything I had, knowing that I would be destitute and in debt for the rest of my life if I failed… but it seems fortune was on my side." He then took a breath. "But as to why you are here…" He stood up. "I want to make the company private, but also I want to tell you all that I want to try something… new."

    He then took a breath. "There was an idea that Miss Kennedy proposed, that I thought would be utterly insane two years ago. But I feel like it was warranted."

    He took a breath. "I want to make a Justice Leauge movie… and I feel like you should be the first to know, that I am assembling one in the films…" He smiled and you realized what he was doing.

    "A saga from DC comics now about to come to the big screen?" Chris asked as a smile rose from his face.

    Alan smiled. "Yep. And the two of you… well you're the super friends?"

    A moment later, you laughed. "Oh man, you want me to do something like-"

    Alan was serious.

    "Wait how many films are you hoping to get out of us?" you asked.

    "Three films… self-contained but able to be referenced." He replied. "Hopefully."

    Do you remain as Batman?:
    []Yes
    []No

    Do you have any conditions to make if you want to remain as Batman?:
    []Write in (Alan is willing to do a lot for you now that he's got you on it)

    Reward: There was an idea of a DCU.

    Alan has begun to try his hand at a universe of high-quality films, that can stand on their own, but share a universe together.


    AN: Enjoy and vote in plan format.

    Alan, you magnificent man, I could kiss you! :D

    Now, obviously we're staying as Batman, but hopefully anyone other than me has ideas on conditions, because I'm not good at this. :p
     
    So there is the Disney brothers, Bruce the Goose, and Alan the Gambler.

    This era of the movie industry has three separate Greats, with one of them being a Duo.
    And then there is the guy with the biggest corp on the block and Sony playing with the tv cams. But still, all three of the leaders in the alliance going on in the film industry seem to be figures that are gonna be remembered all right.
     
    I say we probably should specifify bow many movies bruce will do and make sure we plan a end, the story while introducing nightwing as a sucessor. You know make it good and have a ending.

    Its not even the greatest romance, it's just an average day of Bruce and Carrie, and the cameras just happened to be rolling at the time. :V

    Hollywood's OTP for sure. Makes you wonder of the pressure Mary and her siblings face in trying to find the same happily ever after as their parents.

    If Carrie is pregnant, and if Debbie is able to convince herself to work after enjoying being a grandmother and being out of the spotlight for so long.

    Yeah that's fair. I guess we should do one of Debbie's movies when we're free and Carrie isn't actively trying to get pregnant. So long as we make something before 1987 I'll count that as a win since that's when Debbie started acting again OTL.

    First off hell yes. We're probably going to be unable to do something heavily ambitious on the level of the MCU, but if we manage to get a Justice League movie that's good then that's a win in my book. Hope we can also do a Batman AND Superman not VS, just two superfriends being bros and saving the day. Hope Linda gets to remain as Wonder Woman and have a glorious cinematic appearence.

    Anyone have any ideas for the conditions? So far I'm thinking maybe hire merch cut and make the Batman films Lucasfilms co-productions. Maybe we can have a movie with Superman. Don't know exactly what our ambitions should be, I'll wait for the comic nerds to lend their say.

    By the way Magoose, how are the other Lucasfilms productions doing at the moment?

    Gives a real chance for some fodder thanks to the fact Bruce also played the role of Ares. :D
    Wonder women meets Bruce Wayne could be interesting all right.:V
     
    Not immediately relevant, but we should network to get Friday the 13th once the next turn comes around because the window's closing on how long until we can't get it anymore.

    Not a chance in hell.

    He's well aware of the power of Merch.

    It's the only reason he had the money to buy most of Colombia.

    That is why we need to acquire Kenner and/or Hasbro ASAP... We would become the middleman on an extremely interesting business...

    More on topic... What about a cartoon series?

    We can make the best animated series of all time 20 years earlier than OTL
     
    [X] Plan Mythology Buff
    -[X] Yes
    -[X] The Conditions are as follow:
    --[X] Be listed as Producer for, at minimum, three completed projects.
    --[X] Lucasfilms Unlimited gains exclusivity rights to DC film and tv projects for eight years, the contract to be renegotiated at such a time.
    --[X] Have Wonder Woman read a file where it's teased that Bruce Wayne be decended from Ares' demigod son Thrax, as a mythology gag to Bruce O'Brian's playing the Greek God of War.

    Thoughts? Things to add?

    Ooof, I uh, need some insight on this. I wanted to write up a pitch for the Halloween Tree, great freakin' book by Ray Bradbury that got adapted in 94 by Hanna Barbera. Was gonna' just write it out for us cause hey, WB is caput right?

    Well, thing is, Bradbury originally wrote the thing as a script...for Chuck Jones.

    Yeah so, I'm of the mindset that with Jones in charge of Disney's Animation department, Bradbury would be more inclined to come to him first over us.

    Honestly, that is a field that historically wouldn't do too well.

    But Alan being Alan, and with as crazy as the quest is, he'd probably sail his way through the fall of Atari unscathed from simply threading the needle via doing what he does best. Crazy gambles that no sane person would take on because he has decided to embody his gambler spirit. XD
     
    Magoose i just remember now, but how is the life of that one girl that we did try to date back in the early days of the quest ? like damm i forgot about her and i literally just remember because the my brain wanted :/
     
    You know if we end the Batman saga I want to go out like Arkham knight one it would the greatest ending to Batman ever also the conspiracy that would come from it whether or not nightmares batman is Bruce or not
