HBO's JoJo's Bizarre Adventure- Series 1: Phantom Blood (2018)

The story is set in England in the early-to-late 1880s,[a][b] and follows Jonathan Joestar, the heir of the wealthy Joestar family, and his adoptive brother Dio Brando, who wishes to take the Joestar fortune for himself. Using an ancient stone mask, Dio transforms himself into a vampire, and Jonathan learns the sunlight-based martial arts technique of Hamon[c] to fight him. Araki described the themes of the story as "being alive" and "an affirmation that humanity is wonderful", with characters growing and overcoming problems through their own actions. The series lasted for a total of twelve episodes, and was reasonably positively received by fans of the series, though it only gained mixed reviews from critics.

Recasting modern Who

Modern Doctor Who has been running since 2005, and has been going strong for a long, long while. We know who was cast in the original, but what if they weren't available?

Recasting classic Who

Classic Doctor Who ran from 1963-1989, with a brief revival in 1996. We know who was cast in the original, but what if they weren't available?

Dark Universe - The Wolf Man (2016)

Based off of the scrapped idea of the Dark Universe, this series explores the notion that the Universal Classic Monsters were rebooted for the modern day in a cinematic universe like the MCU or the Monsterverse. The series would largely have been comprised of Gothic horror movies, the first few introducing the main monsters and the next phases allowing them to meet, and new monsters to be introduced. Unlike other films in the franchise, this film linked back to a previous remake, acting as a sequel to the 2010 film of the same name and thereby making the 2010 Wolf Man the technical beginning of the series. The film follows members of the London elite after new attacks by a "Wolf-Man" break out. Meanwhile, the culprit, Francis Aberline, is trying to live with his condition as best he can, and wishes to isolate himself as best he can. The story thereby sets up these two threads through the perspective of Francis' niece Mary, who, whilst unaware of her father's affliction, believes there may be more humanity to the wolf man than meets the eye. This film was met with reasonably positive reception, and deemed an improvement over the previous Wolf Man film, but worse than all others in the main Dark Universe that had came before.

Dark Universe - Frankenstein (2015)

Based off of the scrapped idea of the Dark Universe, this series explores the notion that the Universal Classic Monsters were rebooted for the modern day in a cinematic universe like the MCU or the Monsterverse. The series would largely have been comprised of Gothic horror movies, the first few introducing the main monsters and the next phases allowing them to meet, and new monsters to be introduced. This story would have been a reasonably close retelling of the original novel, and, much like Dracula before it, was very well received.

Dark Universe - Dracula (2015)

Based off of the scrapped idea of the Dark Universe, this series explores the notion that the Universal Classic Monsters were rebooted for the modern day in a cinematic universe like the MCU or the Monsterverse. The series would largely have been comprised of Gothic horror movies, the first few introducing the main monsters and the next phases allowing them to meet, and new monsters to be introduced. The first of these movies in Dracula, released in 2015. This would have been well-received due to its closeness to both the movie and the original book, and kickstarted the Dark Universe as a major force in the field of horror.

Kindergarten

You are a student in a school that’s a bit…off. The teacher is trying to get rid of her kids. The janitor is frequently seen cleaning up blood. The cafeteria is serving the same slop over and over again. Kids are walking around with strange devices planted on them after visiting the principal, and one of your fellow classmates has gone missing. It’s up to you to figure out what’s going on, because your life might depend on it. This story is based on the idea of an animated movie based around the Kindergarten game. How the movie plays out is similar to the game, with the exception of missions generally being blended together and/or happening over different days of the same week.
