  OPTIONED - The Brittle Riders Budget: $10M - $30M | Sci-fi After humans circumvented anti-AI laws and made new species to fulfill the roles of menial laborers, sex slaves, and shock troops, those creations eventually rose up and killed every man, woman, and child on the planet. This is the world if Frankenstein's monsters ruled the Earth. Like Game of Thrones on Crack, apocalypses are funny that way.

  Goptri of the Mists: Kitaab Ek Budget: $10M - $30M | Sci-fi It was one thing to maintain order, quite another to inflict tyranny. When that line got blurred one brave soul rose up in protest and set off a chain of events that would eventually lead to a world war, alien robots, and non-dimensional souls. But, before all that could happen, he'd need some bourbon, some luck, and some mists to rule. The prequel/sequel to the Award Winning series The Brittle Riders.
