My Little Pony Adventures: Season 7-9(2016-2019)
My Little Pony: Adventures Season 7-9

Season 7
The series is focused on bringing back the Pillars of Equestria and several episodes are devoted to bringing back one of the pillars individually throughout the season. Of these episodes, A Health of Information is one such episode for Mage Meadowbrook with Twilight helping Posey find a cure(a criticism of the OTL episode is Twilight not offering to help despite the fact that the situation means Zecora could die), Once Upon a Zeppelin(though Twilight Sparkle is now in Twilight Velvet's role),

Marks and recreation is a Cutie Mark Crusaders episode

Daring Done? does not exist due to Daring Do being fictional. Most of the episodes in this series also set up the return of the Pillars, which are brought back individually, as a result the Pillars are given more focus as ponies out of their own time. This includes Starswirl the Bearded(voice dby Ian Mckellen), Mage Meadowbrook(who speaks with a Louisianaian accent), Flash Magnus(Roman), Somnambula(Egyptian modeled after Cleopatra), Mistmane(Japanese), and Rockhoof(Norse Vikin).

"A Royal Problem" has Starlight and Sunset go to solve a feud with the Royal Sisters. The Royal Sisters are convinced to change roles for one day, Celestia having done so during Selene's imprisonment. Celestia tries using Selene's dream powers and enters her own mind, inadvertently freeing an evil version of herself named Daybreaker, which follows Celestia as she enters a nightmare Selene is having about Nightmare Moon. It takes Starlight, Sunset and Twilight together with the two sisters to expel the two evil versions of the sisters.

"Not Asking for Trouble" has Surprise invited to the country of Yakistan as an ambassador, with Yakistan threatening war with Equestria, which everyone wants to avert because of Twilight's fear that Celestia would basically destroy Yakistan(the hypothetical scenario of such an outcome is shown in an imagine spot where a Yakistani army charges Celestia and she basically nukes Yakistan which is shown with the sports announcers from the Equestria Games episodes providing commentary as if was a sporting even: "And here we have Queen Celestia, Queen Selene was going to be here today but she reportedly told her sister...."....I got this."

"Shadowplay" brings together the Pillars once more to battle the Pony of Shadows, which gets more focus thanks to earlier episodes giving the pillars the Spotlight and only Starswirl himself is brought back in the episode, though his arrogance is toned down ITTL due to allowing Ian McKellen to make the role his.

My Little Pony: The Movie

Produced by Sony(without a as bad Sony email hack), though Sony's idea of having Pony characters in a Human world(Their OTL plan like the Smurfs) was shot down as it would contradict Equestria Girls. Sony's other plan was an evil Alicorn named Cosmos who was Celestia and Selen's brother in order to fuel friction between Twilight and Celestia but the creators pointed out this would create several plotholes, though Cosmos would evolve into Tempest Shadow. Liev Shrieber was cast as the Storm King and given a much more prominent role, being directly involved in taking Equestria and controlling storms. He is also revealed in flashback to have killed Scorpan and taken his staff, which was a branch broken off from the Tree of Harmony. After Equestria is taken by the Stom King and the Mane Six go on their jounrey, they encounter Mud Trolls and a befriend a fox named Mendax(Capper ITTL). They then travel to Klugetown, which is a city built around the skeleton of a colossal Dragon impaled on a sharpened mountain peak with its Crystal Heart revealed to have become that of the Crystal Empire. The Mane Six then encounter Madame Harpy( Captain Celaeno ITTL). Another altered scene is Fluttershy helping the Mane Six escape being imprisoned by the Sea Ponies by talking fish into helping them. There is also no parodies of existing pop songs and all original songs instead.

Season 8

School Daze introduces the School of Friendship and several new student characters. OTL episodes include The Maud Couple, Fake it till you Make it ( although it does not use the word "Woke"), Grannies Gone Wild, Horseplay, The Parent Map, Non Complete Cause, Molt Down, The Mean Six, A Matter of Principals, Friendship University, The End in Friend, Yakity Sax, Road to Friendship(Though Starlight is not at fault for the misfortunes her and Trixie experience. It is instead bad luck, the entire episode basically being a pony version of Plane, Trains and Automobiles, The Washouts, What Lies Beneath, Sounds of Silence, Father knows Best,

A Rockhoof and a Hard Place has a different plot dealing with Rockhoof's trauma and showing him speaking to the other Pillars as well as showing how each has adapted. Rockhoof has a permanent job as his knowledge of history is instrumental to Historians and is frequently on archeological sites and museums but has become nostalgic and unhappy. He visits the other pillars, Meadowbrook is living a comfortable life with her living family and has revived an ancient recipe previously lost to time, Flash Magnus has gone back to training soldiers in the military, considering the modern soldiers to be far less impressive than the warriors of his own time and too reliant on modern weaponry. Somnambula, while no longer a royal is quite popular as a celebrity due to her beauty and fame, acting as essentially a supermodel, Mistmane, already quite elderly when they vanished, is content to live out their last days in peace in their home and garden, and Starswirl is teaching several new students to secure the future before he himself intends to become one with the universe in a magical sense. Rockhoof does eventually find his place, returning home to find several ancient traditions still existing and joining a scientific voyage that seeks to recreate what an ancient voyage was like for people of the era.

Surf and Turf" , "the Big Mac Break Down", "Marks for Effort" is a Cutie Marks Crusaders episode.

School Raze has Tirek and Chrysalis as antagonists in addition to Cozy Glow being a surprise villain. Chrysalis defeats and imprisons Starlight while having several loyal Changelings steal the keys to Tartarus and seals the Mane Six inside. While Tirek remains imprisoned Chrysalis is forced to flee once Starlight and the Mane Six are freed.

Season 9

The Beginning of the End is the largely the same as OTL, as is Uprooted, Sparkle's Seven(Twilight's Seven), the Point of no Return, Common Ground, She's All Yak,Frenemies, Sweet and Smoky, Going to Seed, Student Counsel, Between Dark and Dawn, the Last Laugh, 2,4,6, Greaaat, A Trivial Pursuit, the Summer Sun Setback, She Talks to Angel, Dragon Dropped, The Big Mac Question,

The Holiday special is included as a two part episode.

Growing up is Hard to Do is an episode of the Cutie Mark Crusaders Chronicles with The Last Crusade as the final episode.

A Horse-Shoe-in has not only Doctor Whooves be canonically revealed to be the Doctor, but Trixie being removed early on as even with her being the girlfriend to Starlight, Starlight refuses to keep her on as an option as they repeatedly fail over much more competent choices.

Daring Doubt does not exist.

The Final three episodes include the two parter the Ending of the End, which depicts a much more intense battle with the three antagonists of Chrysalis, Tirek and Cozy Glow. During which Celestia and Luna are forced to resort to the forms of Day Breaker and Nightmare Moon. Celestia is killed and the Mane Six retreat, with Twilight believing her friends are dead after Canterlot(literally) falls. While initially shocked and saddened, Twilight is able to recover enough to aid in a successful defense of Ponyville from the Antagonists and with the Mane Six arriving, the final battle includes an Avengers: Endgame/ The Two Towers style scene in which every single character from the entire series with the exception of Celestia saving the Mane Six(which also includes Sunset Shimmer), which help turn the tide and defeat the villains. While Chrysalis and Tirek are defeated and turned to stone, Cozy Glow is captured instead. The Final episode "Friendship was Magic" which served as an epilogue to the series, revealing the fate of most of the characters, who now have families of their own, including Twilight now having succeeded Celestia as Queen with Starlight and Sunburst's daughter as her apprentice. Following this the show lived on in Comics set before the Epilogue and after the Finale, which included a Transformers Crossover that was adapted into an animated film.​

Universal Monsters: 1941-1943

creature_from_the_black_lagoon_franchise_retrospective.jpg

The Creature from the Black Lagoon(1941)

Replacing the OTL The Monster and the Girl(No connection) Creature from the Black Lagoon is released 13 years earlier. The idea came from Producer William Alland attending a Dinner Party during the filming of Citizen Kane, where Mexican Cinematographer Gabriel Fiqueroa shared the story of the myth of a race of fish-men in the Amazon River and was then asked to direct such a film, using Beauty and the Beast as inspiration. Credited for the Gill-Man was Disney Animator Milicent Patrick, who had recently left the company(unlike OTL, Milicent Patrick is properly credited). Other creators of the suit include Bud Westmore, Jack Kevan and Chris Mueller. The Gill-man was played by Ben Chapman with water scenes shot either at Universal City, California or in Florida(I'm moving this film earlier so that the Creature can feature in the Mega crossovers such as House of Frankenstein and House of Dracula, allowing for the Creature to be featured on the screen with the other classic monsters).
the-wolf-man.jpg

The Wolf Man(1941)

Swapped with the release order of Man Made Monster, making this film Lon Chaney Jr's big debut film and one of his most iconic roles as well. The film does indeed feature a werewolf transformation on screen(OTL this appears in the sequels and it is a myth that it occurs in the first film). Lon Chaney Jr had to sit in a makeup chair for six hours with the makeup taking an hour to remove.
PDVD_087.jpg

The Electric Man(1941)

Originally a Bela Lugois and Boris Karoff venture, the idea was cancelled due to being too similar to another film The Invisible Ray with both actors and revived as a Long Chaney Jr vehicle with impressive effects for the time. it was also a vehicle to see if Lon Chaney Jr could play a convincing Frankenstein Monster as Karloff was unwilling to return the role due to injuries sustained while Long Chaney Jr proved to capable of moving quickly in heavy makeup and effects and the film was a test if he could prove a successor to the role.
The-ghost-of-frankenstein-lobby-card001.jpg

The Ghost of Frankenstein(1942)

The Film features the return of Basil Rathbone as the son of Frankenstein, who is forced to operate on the Monster by Igor. Igor is played once again by Bela Lugosi and the Monster by Long Chaney Jr using the same makeup as Boris Karloff. Included ITTL scenes are the Monster's bond with children, villagers storming a castle, a brain transplant sequence, and the fiery demise of the monster(OTL these elements were cut due to a warnign by the censors).
817yPSoLHTL._SL1500_.jpg

The Golem(1942)

replacing OTL's The Invisible Agent. By this time the US had entered the War and so the focus shifted to a mix of hybrid and propaganda. While the idea of turning the Invisible Man into a Nazi fighting secret agent, this was tossed out in favor of reviving an old Universal monster, the Golem, which was of Jewish origins and could be depicted fighting Nazis in occupied Poland. Lon Chaney Jr played the monster and Peter Lorre played the Golem's creator. Universal rereleased the old Golem films(Preserved ITTL instead of lost) to promote the new film.
Mummys-Tomb-The_main.jpg

The Mummy's Tomb(1942)

Largely another fairly standard Mummy sequel though with Lon Chaney Jr playing the role of the Mummy.
frankenstein-meets-the-wolf-man_u-L-PW5RH50.jpg

Frankenstein Meets the Wolfman(1943)

With the success of the Wolfman, there came a desire for a crossover like Dracula vs Frankenstein. The Problem came that the Wolfman was set in the present day while the Frankenstein films were set an earlier era. The plot was changed to involve Nazis seeking to revive both monsters to use them or their secrets in the war effort. Bela Lugosi did not voice the monster or return to voice Ygor with Karloff returning in one rare moment, having recovered from his previous injuries in the role.
220px-Junglewomanposter.jpg

Cheela, the Jungle Woman(1943)

OTL a film which involved a woman that transforms into an Ape. ITTL the series is instead about essentially a female Tarzan type character.
Phantom-of-the-Opera_main.jpg

Phantom of the Opera(1943)

An in color remake starring Boris Karloff as the Phantom and Deanna Durbin as Christine.
Son-of-Dracula-18_main.jpg

Son of Dracula(1943)

The Film is largely the same as OTL with Lon Chaney Jr in the title role.​
 
Force 10 Sequel Series(2008-2016)

Force 10: Hero Generation(2008-2010)

Force 10 focuses on a teenage Ben and Gwen serving as mentors to a new team of kids with alien powers. Later in the seres, Man of Action left and the series was taken over by Glen Murakami and Dwayne McDuffie. The duo introduced a reformed Kevin, previously an antagonist and had the big story of season three be about Kevin absorbing too much energy to save Gwen and going insane, ending in Kevin's tragic death. However, the series does not retcon the origins of Gwen and Kevin's abilities.​

Force 10: Evolutions(2010-2012)

Continuing the story of the previous series, the series featured the return of the Negative 10, an alliance of villains originally formed in the first series, proving a new version of the team as antagonists. The series even featured an intense final battle between Ben and series antagonist Vilgax. Dwayne McDuffie got a spinoff with Gwen and Charmcaster to continue the latter's arc.​

Live Action Films(2007-2011)

A Trilogy of Force 10 films were released as made for TV movies. Force 10: Race Against Time(2007), Force 10: Alien Swarm(2010) and Force 10: Alien X(2011).

Force 10: Omniverse(2012-2016)

Bringing the action to a larger scale and providing Ben with a new device courtesy fo Dwayne McDuffie, the Omnitrix. The series has several changes from OTL including, Ben seeing his Grampa instead of sentient smoothies in his heart's desire fantasy and the universe not being destroyed. There's also the alien dog originally belonging to Khyber appeared. Ball Weevil is named Collectiball, Kickin' Hawk is named Chi-Kickin. Zombozo's escape in "Something Zombozo This Way Comes" has him land on Anur Transyl, thus possibly giving him a role in the arc with Zs'Skayr. Mole-Stache appears in "No Honor Among Bros", using his moustache as a weapon. In "Universe Vs. Tennyson", a scene of Ben using Chamalien to spy on Chadzmuth is included. The Rooters arc begins with Aggregor seeking out Kevin's body, revealing that he was an experiment by the Rooters to duplicate Kevin's powers. Verdona also appears with a new character model. Wildmutt is also one of Albedo's roster.

For Season 4, Cannonbolt appears. Even more fusion aliens are shown used by Ben 10,000, such as XLRG (XLR8 + NRG) and Gravadactyl (Gravattack + Astrodactyl). Ben 23's version of Swampfire, Mr. Mucky, also appears. George Washington is revealed to be travelling with a man named Ezekiel Saturday, setting up the crossover with Secret Saturdays. The Friedkin University episodes do not exist(due to being set up for a Gwen spinoff which already exists ITTL). There are 4 other transformations(Spitter, Fasttrack, Jetray, and Chamalien) along with others. The show also had its Show Bible published and released, similar to the Allspark Almanac for Transformers: Heroes The show also had its own version of the Negative 10, consisting of 10 evil aliens from the same species as the Omnitrix's roster instead of being a team of older rogues gathered by an older villain. This includes Albedo as evil Grey Matter, Malware as evil Upgrade, Maltruant as evil Clockwork, Subdora as evil Chamalien, Liam as evil Chick-Kickin, Dr. Psychobos as evil Brainstorm, Lord Transyl as evil Whampire, and so on). The show continued thanks to Dwayne McDuffie checking himself into the hospital and recovering(Stephen E.Gordon passing away in his place). This allows plot details such as the arcs of Elena, Charmcaster, and King Viktor being resolved. The Series concluded in 2016. Though a Live Action series is said to be in the works.​
 
Universal Monsters: 1944-1955

Last of the Classic Universal Monster film updates. Next up is Friday the 13th and then some overhauling of the Marvel Films and Television

Part of a deal made with H.G.Wells to produce two Invisible Man films between. 1943 and 1951. The film starred Claude Rains in the lead role.

The Wolfman vs Dracula(1944)

Bela Lugosi and Lon Chaney Jr returned to play their iconic roles with the Wolfman fighting against Dracula's control while seeking to stop him.
Mummys-Curse_main.jpg

The Mummy's Curse(1944)

A Sequel largely using stock footage from previous Mummy films.

House of Horrors(1945)

This film brought together Dracula, the Frankenstein Monster, The Wolfman, the Creature from the Black Lagoon and the Mummy. Bela Lugosi , Boris Karloff and Lon Chaney Jr returned with Petter Lorre also appearing in the role of a hunchback assistant and Claude Rains reprising his role as the Invisible Man though not as the antagonist. The Premise involves Dracula assembling the monsters in his plan for world domination, which include killing the Nazis as well, which include Peter Lorre. The Invisible Man is offered a chance to join Dracula's alliance but refuses and aids the heroes, which include John Carradine and several other Universal Horror alumni. While the film was successful, after the release of the film and the end of World War II leading to Horror falling out of favor due to the real horrors revealed during the war. Not helped was that the monsters die in ironic or fitting ways. Dracula is staked through the heart. The Creature from the Black Lagoon is shot, the Mummy is broken apart, the Frankenstein monster is set on fire, and the Wolfman is shot by a silver bullet, complete with the Invisible Man dying and reappearing after death.
The_Creeper_%28rondo-hatton%29.jpg

The Creeper(1946)

A Film starring Rondo Hatton, who suffered from several heart attacks which took his life, as a result the film was released in his memory.

She-Wolf of London(1946)

A Film starring Forrester Harvey and featuring Una O'Connor in a smaller role. The Film is considered lackluster compared to other Universal films, meainly concerned with a woman that believes she becomes a werewolf at night from evidence she finds suggesting this every morning after a full moon such as werewolf hair and destruction to the room along with the discovery of bodies that have been ripped apart. Rare for Universal Monster movies at the time, the monster is revealed to not be real but an elaborate frame up job by the antagonist.

Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein's Monster(1948)

With the popularity of the Universal Monsters in decline in the face of the horrors of the war, the age of monsters came to an end. It was Abbott and Costello, the then popular comedic duo that suggested to give the Monsters a sendoff, which came into existence with this film. The main difference is in how the monsters meet their demise. Dracula dies from sunlight and the Wolfman dies once more from a silver bullet. Boris Karloff returned to play the Frankenstein monster a final time along with Bela Lugosi and Long Chaney Jr. Chaney Jr also jumped into the role of the monster a few times to give Karloff some time off in the role. Vincent Price also cameos as the Invisible Man, scarring Abbott and Costello at the end.
275px-Abbott_and_Costello_Meet_the_Invisible_Man.jpg

Abbott and Costello Meet the Invisible Man(1951)

Vincent Price plays the Invisible Man but Arthur Franz plays the body of the Invisible Man since the titular Invisible Man was a boxer to provide more comedic opportunities such as Abbott in a boxing match being secretly helped out by the Invisible Man.
Abbott-and-Costello-Meet-the-Mummy_main.jpg

Abbott and Costello Meet the Mummy(1955)

Lon Chaney Jr plays the titular monster, Klaris, the cousin of Kharis, a different mummy to provide more comedic scenes with the Mummy without contradicting the original character's menace.​
 
If Jason Takes Manhattan still happens in this timeline, maybe you could arrange for it to have a higher budget so the planned "landmark" scenes get shot.
 
I feel like I have a lot of ideas/suggestions for this timeline, and I don’t know where to start.
Well currently I’m focusing on Friday the 13th. And then redoing and expanding the Marvel stuff. While I am close to 100 threadmarks since I’m redoing a few earlier posts and removing others I don’t think that number is quite right. For example I’m retouching some of the anime posts, though mostly will just detail the Pokémon entries as “what if Ash Woke up on Time?”

for Comics which I’m currently on in my list my next plan is to cover Archie, the comic company and the character, along with Riverdale. After that I think I will breeze through the other comics pretty quickly though there is some overlap that should be fun. For example after Archie I will be covering Alien, but like I did with the other franchises I will cover the movies as well. The only other comic franchise I see getting it’s own post currently is League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, since that’s a change to both improve the comic and the movie.

After Comics I’m moving onto Animated movies and I’m going straight for Disney.

Remember that there were two unaired pilots for Archie, one in 1962 and one in 1964.
(Unfortunately I can only find the1964 pilot.)
That’s good to know. So far my changes include Archie being exposed to weird horror elements I. The 1950’s as horror comics were popular back then, meaning audiences are used to Archie in horror and it’s not as unusual. A cancelled unofficial play featuring a gay Archie is made. And Riverdale is released as a movie and then a tv show on fox. Both being original ideas for it.
 
Friday the 13th: 1980-2002

download-3.jpg

Friday the 13th(1980)

Produced and directed by Sean S.Cunningham, who had worked with Wes Craven on The Last House on the Left. The logo for the film was created before any idea of what the film was about. The writer Victor Miller enjoyed the twist of the killer being the victim's mother and disliked the later films making Jason the killer, seeing him as a victim, not a villain. The idea of Jason appearing in the film was a last minute addition. Of the cast Sally Field played Alice. The role of Pamela Voorhees was played by Estelle parsons. The character of Ned is seen as the first practical Joker victim in Horror films since the earlier film Halloween had no such character.​

JasonVoorhees-Living.jpg

Friday the 13th: Part II(1981)

The Sequel brings in Jason, this time wearing his now iconic Hockey Mask and never being unmasked in the film(avoiding contradictions in the later films OTL). Martin Sardoff was brought on board because Paramount wanted the film to be 3-D. While this was canned, Sardoff's influence was what led to the Hockey Mask being used, albeit enlarged with effects since a normal mask was too small. Red triangles were also put on the mask to give it a unique look.

Sally Field returned as Alice Hardy. The adult Jason was designed by Tom Savini. Sally Field returned in the film but was killed off during it by choice as the studio had difficulty affording her, leading to her replacement with Amy Steel as Ginny.

The film had an even harder time with the rating system and despite receiving an X-Rating after refusing to cut several violent scenes out including the murders of Jeff and Sandra, who are impaled during sex, and a full frontal nudity shot of then 16 year old Marta Kober. Despite the X-Rating, the film was a massive hit, leading the film to even greater popularity than OTL, as it proved that an X-Rating wasn't a death sentence for a film.

F13_3D_Cover_1200x630 (1).jpg

Friday the 13th: Part III(1982)

Amy Steel returned as Ginny, who was now in a psychiatric hospital, with the plot now revolving on Jason tracking her down and murdering his way through the hospital. Screenwriter Ron Kurz returned to draft the screenplay. The Production company was Georgetown Productions, the same as the first two films with Paramount acting as distributor, and allowing the film to be shot with 3-D cameras, though a process was made to allow the camera to function with any theater projectors.

tommy-fridaythe13th.jpg

Friday the 13th: Part IV(1984)

The Film was not billed as the Final Chapter, as the previous installment was supposed to end the series but this wasn't stated and so it wasn't stated in this film in case there turned out to be sequels. The slasher genre was declining at the time. Frank Mancuso Jr also disliked how no one seemed to respect him for working on the series.

This film was the first two have two survivors instead of one, one of which was a child. The film introduced the Jarvis family and most notably Tommy Jarvis, which contrasted with the usual victims being teenagers. Tommy's love for makeup effects was a tribute to Tom Savini, who worked on the film series and returned to kill Jason off.

Camilla More auditioned for Samantha, but when the filmmakers discovered she had a twin sister, the two were cast as twins Tina and Terri. Amy Steel returned as Ginny. Peter Barton played the role of Doug, While the film finally kills off Jason, the ending implies Tommy, due to emotional trauma from the encounter, will become a killer like Jason.

poster.jpg

Friday the 13th: A New Beginning(1985)

Named "Repetition" during production and initial release to hide the fact that the film was a Friday the 13th sequel. While this was done even before Director Sam Raimi was brought in Raimi while initially hesitant, accepted since it was a chance to reboot a franchise and make it his, naturally he brought along Bruce Campbell and committed to the idea of Tommy being the new killer, often diving into his head before revealing him to be the killer. Hallucinations by Tommy also allowed Raimi to go all in with the effects but also provide a "Maybe magic, maybe mundane" approach since Tommy was an established fan of special effects in addition to the hallucinations caused by his trauma. Raimi brought back several actors but also gave his friend Bruce Campbell a role. Somewhat controversially, one of the victims, Violet Moraine, appears to be stabbed in the vagina.

Friday the 13th: Jason Returns(1986)

Tom Mcloughlin directed and continued the trend of following Tommy as the killer. However, McLoughlin was also asked to bring back Jason despite the success of the previous film, while he disliked this idea, his love of Universal horror films led to the scene of Tommy digging up Jason's grave to destroy his body, only for lightning to strike the body and revive Jason, now as an undead killer, armed with a machete. This leads to a conflict between the two killers. However, the film avoided killing Tommy, as doing so was seen as a waste of a good character and could be perceived as a middle finger towards the beloved Raimi film.

Freddy vs Jason(1987)

An idea proposed by Paramount to New Line Cinema, who owned the Nightmare on Elm Street franchise, which was doing quite well. Peter Jackson, who was to direct the third film, intended to take the third installment in a new direction. The success of the Friday the 13th reboot made the idea of taking risks to revive the slasher genre. C.J.Graham returned to play Jason with Robert England to return as well. The plot is similar to OTL's Freddy vs Jason but is transplanted to an 80's setting.

Friday-the-13th-part-vii-the-new-blood-.jpg

Jason vs Carrie(1988)

The Film idea that became Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood OTL. Thanks to the release of Freddy vs Jason. The idea of another crossover was greenlit, leading to the "Jason vs girl with psychic powers" trope applied to a film featuring Carrie battling Jason. The film also served as a reboot of the film, retelling the story of the Carrie film with Jason thrown into the mix. In this case, the story follows the psychic girl Carrie Shepard. Given that Carrie uses her abilities to wreck Jason in the finale, the film portrays Carrie as far more heroic. The film was, understandably, not as much a success as Freddy vs Jason, though the studio understood that it would not be.

friday-the-13th-jason-takes-manhattan.jpg

Jason Takes Manhattan(1989)

The Film was given a larger budget in the hope that it could revive some of the money that Jason vs Carrie was not expected to make back. As a result, the filmmakers pulled out all the stops to take advantage of the promise of the premise. After being released from an insane asylum he was committed to, Tommy Jarvis travels to New York with Jason following him. He brings with him another former mental patient he fell in love with at the asylum, Carrie Shepard(an original draft for the film was rejected as it would have set the action at the Asylum, which was already done in the third film). It was Hedden, the new director, who wished to move the action away from Camp Crystal Lake, sighting its overuse in the previous films and while a film set on a boat or some enclosed space was pitched, it was instead decided to set it in New York. The film is set almost entirely in New York and includes Jason on the Brooklyn Bridge, a boxing match and then a Broadway play being interrupted by Jason, Jason in Time Square, the Subway and finally climbing the Statue of Liberty and falling off.

Freddy vs Jason vs Ash and Freddy vs Jason vs Ash 2: The Nightmare Warriors are not considered part of the Friday the 13th Franchise, though from a continuity franchise they can fit in chronologically before Jason X.

Jason X(2002)

Jason has been captured and awakens in the future year of 2453 to wreak havoc before finally meeting an explosive decompressive end. The Film is largely the same as OTL.​

If and when you do The Man from UNCLE do you think you could keep Sam Rolfe as showrunner for more than one season. Also have the first season be broadcast in color.
