(Scene begins with a smartwatch screen and a finger as it taps the screen and the 1994 American Gladiators plays as the scene cuts to a hand as it taps an app on his phone as it opens a portal.)
(It cuts to James and the characters he’s played until it cut to his face and the credit of “James Faraci” is shown as it cuts to “The Last Of The Americans’” current iteration then slides away to different images of Paulo Fonseca, Brenda Fonseca, Rebecca Yaun, Nick Yaun and the characters they’ve played until it cut to their faces. The credits of “ Paulo and Brenda Fonseca, Rebecca and Nick Yaun” are shown, then slide away to different images of Doug Yaun, Kyra Lee, and Crosslyn Castillo and the characters they’ve played, until it cuts to their faces.)
(After that, the credits “Doug Yaun, Kyra Lee, and Crosslyn Castillo” are shown, as it then slides away to different images of Andrew Beach, Eric Kurtzke, Renee Miller, and Olivia Horvath. Following this, the credits of “Andrew Beach, Eric Kurtzke, Renee Miller, Olivia Horvath” are shown as the 0:00-0:21 mark of the theme song plays.)
(Everything becomes a swirl of reds, whites, and blues, as the credits “Produced by First Choice Entertainment Productions in association with Manic-Expression.com”; “Executive Producers: James Faraci, Paulo Fonseca, Brenda Fonseca, Rebecca Yaun, Nick Yaun, Eric Kurtzke, Renee Miller, Andrew Beach & Olivia Horvath”; “Editing by Eric Kurtzke and James Faraci”; “Written and Directed by James Faraci” are shown, as the 0:21-0:26 mark of the theme song plays.)
(We then see an image of James as he jumps through the portal and lands with half of his team on his right. The other half on his left is on a black background. Finally, the title “THE LAST OF THE AMERICANS” is shown Lazer etched into Titanium as the last six seconds of the American Gladiators 1994 theme song plays.)
(The Scene changes to Paulo Fonseca as Zack Snyder and Doug Yaun as David Zaslav in the lobby of James’ office, and they are arguing with Zack saying “Bro” at the start and end of every sentence as James comes walking in casually.)
TLOTA:
Okay, OKAY OOKAAAY! (The arguing ends, and it cuts to David and Zack looking at James for a beat as it then cuts back to James.) Now what in the name of Marco Polo is going on around here? (Cut to Zack Snyder and David Zaslav.)
Zack Snyder:
I’ll tell you what happened, bro. This mook here thought that James Gunn was going to finally finish off the DC Movies and give David here a reason to cancel them, the DC Comics division, and vault everything about DC Comics for a good tax write-off, bro.
David Zaslav:
I can explain why it’s a good tax write-off. If people aren’t going to buy it, then there’s no reason to put it out there and for me to lose money because that’s the deal of the business, which is to make money. (Cut to James)
TLOTA:
Okay, so all the filmmakers who love film and want to have their films released they’re what, idiots who think 2+2=4 instead of Happy Marshmallow Wainbow Flying Giblets? Look, if something is a success, then I say enjoy it, and if there’s a risk it fails, then that’s when you start to look for ways to write off the losses by, say, having you and your cronies take a smaller paycheck, sell the movie on digital distributors for quarters on the dollar, and then if it makes the profit on that market. You can say what happened with the movie. (Cut to David Zaslav)
David Zaslav:
Well, it’d be easier because I still make money by writing off the movie. After all, there’s no audience for movies anymore. (Cut to James)
TLOTA:
Well, I think the box office for the new Superman says otherwise.
