White vs Orange

This web series features the 21st unit facing a new squad of troopers on a jungle planet. Capt. Trajin, of the 21st, is a laugh riot for his quest for a cool sounding nickname, but most of the action focuses on a scout for the orange squad who is a klutz. It was a comedy hit for 2 seasons.

Glorious Leader!, a satirical political simulator which involved you betraying and illegaly climbing your way to the top of the North Korean oligarchy. It slightly bombed at launch as many people wrote it off as a extended Soviet joke but became a cult classic for it's biting commentary and fun gameplay. It still has not been released in North Korea.

The Ship
Bobby and Lauren are a couple in an abusive relationship. Lauren tries to escape it, but it seems fate keeps roping her into Bobby's hands, and now she's stuck on a cruise with him and his oblivious family. In addition, she keeps hearing what sounds like keyboard noises and seeing a pair of giant eyes in the sky. She discovers she is a character in a terrible fanfiction of a TV show being written by some dweeb who cares more about self-satisfying himself then making a good story. However, she does manage to escape the cruise ship setting before escaping to the real world, where she gives the dweeb a piece of her mind.

The Marijuana Massacre. A short film uploaded to YouTube in it's early days in 2008. No one's actually sure who made it since the cast and crew keep a very low profile, but it's general reception is that it's pretty good all things considered.

Buried Past

Lauren reluctantly returns home when bones are found in a private collection of the deceased Mr. Martin. While eager to see what the old man has, she is not eager to meet up with her religious parents and a friend that betrayed her. As Lauren studies the fossil collection, she buries herself in her work, as the friend tries to repair their rift. When her father becomes terribly ill, Lauren and her mother eventually find forgiveness for one another. This drama film was an Indie hit, but didn't do well overseas.

Stick it to Them

Megan lives in a world where the Boston Bruins are regarded as almost like gods, and all other teams are virtually invisible. It's an unwritten rule that Hockey and the Bruins are king, and anyone not for the Bruins is taken for "treatment". As a soccer fan, Megan feels invisible herself. She meets another closet soccer fan, Paul, and together they start an underground movement to life soccer up to the same level as the Bruins. When they pirate a tv signal to broadcast a soccer game, they become marked for treatment, or death. Megan, Paul, and their band of soccer fans are forced to play a hockey game that will determine their fate: Win, and live. Lose, and die.

Money Trail, a film released in 2004. Christopher Plummer plays Dr. Larry Trecks, a soon to retire professor at Wheaton College. As part of an experiment, he deliberately leaves out coordinates to $5 million in an Idaho town for several students he finds morally bankrupt. Soon, not just four, but eight students are on a madcap dash across America to get it, unaware the money has already been donated elsewhere the day before it began. In the end, all of them are arrested, though one, Garett DuPaige (Donald Glover) at least gets his parole paid by Trecks, since he's considered the best out of them.

And now I will!

The Nest (2001)
A scientific expedition to Tierra del Fuego discovers strange nests full of eggs, which somehow show signs of being alive. After some debate, it is proposed taking at least two eggs, separate from the nest and apparently dead, back to America for study, even though their local guide argues against it out of fears of invoking a curse from spirits. One scientist wanders about on the last day and discovers a whole herd of surviving dinosaurs, specifically hadrosaurs, apparently mutated to giant sizes and in a state of suspended animation. The team makes a promise to return next time to study them, unaware one dinosaur is already showing signs of life.

When the eggs in cold storage at their University in Washington, a temperature malfunctions results in the eggs hatching to reveal the dinosaurs. The team, amazed by it, nicknames them Lazarus and Osiris, and prepare to conduct studies of them and even unveiling them to the press. However, the lab they are at is raided by the government, who transport them to a facility. Back in Tierra del Fuego, a navy cruiser sent to monitor the parasaurs witness them awaken from hibernation as one of them realises that two of them are missing, and lashes out at it.

Once word has gotten out about Lazarus and Osiris, many of the public has called to release them back, calling their captivity cruel meanwhile, reports are coming in about the Pararasaurs making their way to North America in an attempt to find their missing offspring, taking with them a pack of raptors they have developed a symbiotic relationship with. They detect the scent of the babies, and rampage across the countryside looking for them.

Eventually, the baby hadrosaurs released and is reunited with its father who takes them back to the herd. They all depart for their homeland.

" Superman faces a serial killer armed with an ancient Egyptian knife that makes him immortal."

Superman: The Black Blade (2009), Made as a sequel to Superman Returns, the movie follows the aftermath of the destruction of Luthor's new landmass and his loss of the Krypton crystals. Some of the crystals wash up on the sands of Egypt, where they create an energy discharge that unearths an ancient tomb and revitalizes the mummy that was buried within. Thus begins a series of violent murders from the newly awoken mummy, who it turns out was once a condemned murderer of an ancient pharaoh. Lex Luthor, having managed to find a way off his deserted island hell from the prior movie, hears of this and recalls that one of the prized artifacts he acquired from the rich widow's fortune was an ancient egyptian blade,which testing reveals is made of a mixture of Kryptonite and an unknown element, giving whoever uses it functional immortality. He locates the reawoken murderer and proposes a deal to him: Kill Superman, and he'll have everything he ever wanted, before sending him after Lois Lane. Now Superman faces a foe he cannot take down with brute force alone, as the blade given to the murderer grants him more than just immortality...

"Two children, one gifted powers, fight against a totalitarian militaristic regime."
Mouth of Babes, a 2015 Hunger Games trend follower about Nyssa and her six year old brother Huggies, her with the power to manipulate people with her voice and him with the power to scream at sonic speeds, trying to dismantle a totalitarian regime in the nation of Uzakastan. While it was a hit with critics for the ways it broke free from the genre (sardonic humor, taking place in a modern day dystopia ignored by the rest of the world then a fictional post apocalypse, firmly skewing the love triangle trope, etc), the GA dismissed it as a cash in causing it to bomb at the box office, only recently getting a following again.

Tanks of Tombaugh, a 2007 RTS game making heavy use of full motion video where you play as a military captain assigned to command a penal battalion in a war in the Kuiper Belt. The game homages both Spaghetti War films of the 1960's and 70's, and much of the humour in the game comes from the snappy, sarcastic interactions of the titular Tombaugh Company.

Villains Lackey, a show that came out on Cartoon Network August of 2020. The main character, a robot named Q2, is loved by viewers due to how surprisingly relatable he is.

Punch Time Explosion 2: A Whole New World! , a fighting game from 2019 that was a sequel to Cartoon Network's original fighting game. While it was praised for being a crossover and the great character roster (even including some surprise combatants such as Mulan, the animated version of Beetlejuice, Aladar and the Animaniacs as perhaps the greatest secret characters of all time), the gameplay was widely slammed for barely updating the 2003 original, as well as the story not really having a good use of the Disney characters. Most fans are happy to stick with the game's promised updates though, especially with the reveal that characters from the Clone Wars will be a DLC addition due to it's shared connection between the two properties.
