Project Robin 2

Project Robin 2 is the second movie in the Project Robin series. It was released June 19th, 2021. It is the first Overforce movie to release in 2021 and a direct follow up to the events of Project Batman 6. 
== Plot ==
The movie begins with Robin burying Batman right after the last scene of Project Batman 6. He walks back to the bedroom of Bruce Wayne's house and watches the news. Ever since the death of Batman, Gotham City has been in chaos and the crime rates have skyrocketed without any protector to stop it. He goes to the living room and sits down while having flashbacks of the previous movie (reminiscant of Batman's flashbacks on the couch) and looks at a picture of the two sitting together and then swears his revenge on Aiden Pearce for killing Batman.
Robin looks out the window to see Superman walking to his front door. Robin goes out on the porch to speak to him and Superman reminds Robin that with Batman gone, he has to be the protector of Gotham and that the civilians need him more than ever. Robin brushes this off and Superman flew away. 
With Robin left still angered at Aiden, he returns to his room and begins searching for the whereabouts on Aiden Pearce while a news report plays in the background of the state of the city. This part is also reminicant of Batman hunting for Aiden in PB6. Superman is said to be helping out in Gothan a bit due to Robin's absense but only briefly since Superman is needed in Metropolis. Robin struggles to find answers and reflects on how he needs to avenge Batman.
Meanwhile, in Aiden's base, Aiden sits down at his desk and reads a letter. One of his goons approaches him and proposes to take down Wayne Tower which was ordered by a mysterious figure. The goon says that they all should kill Robin but Aiden refuses and says he doesn't want to kill anymore. The goon leaves and lets him know when the attack on Wayne Tower will happen and says that Aiden is "getting soft" as Aiden begins to question his actions.
At the Gotham City Police Department, Commissioner Gordon is called to check out a crime scene and talks about how Robin could be a help.
Robin finds a list of locations that Aiden could be hiding at while Gordon is in a firefight at the crimescene. He goes to check out one of the locations and brushes off a civilian in danger who asks for his help. 
Robin finally makes it to one of Aiden's hideouts and is greeted with a guard who he beats up and then escapes from. He checks his list again at a park then goes back home to take a shower and call it a day.
Robin gets a mysterious phone call by someone who knows his secret identity and "asks" him to come to an interview. Robin hangs up abruptly and gets dressed.
== Production ==
Project Robin 2 started pre-preproduction very soon after Project Batman 6 was released. The original script was finished sometime later but scrapepd and remade from the ground up. The script for the movie was very similar to the final outcome and not as many scenes were added compared to PB6. The movie finished filming in May of 2021 and was released in June.
== Original script ==
The original version of Project Robin 2 was going to be quite different from the final product. It would be a "road trip" style movie featuring Robin and a new character "Tommy" (who would later become a friend of Robin's who he calls in the movie as an easter egg). The Trickster/Ren Amamiya would have a bigger role in this movie and help out Aiden. Aiden would be a side antagonist with Freddy Kruger being the main antagonist and be invading Robin's mind throughout the film. The movie would also set up Project Evil Dead by featuring Ash Williams, who was also set to have a role.
== Follow-ups to Project Robin 2 ==
=== Project Robin 2 Spinoffs ===
Due to the success of Project Robin 2, three spinoff short-films were planned; 
==== Bad Blood (Project Persona) ====
A movie that would show the origin story of Ren Amamiya/The Trickster and the events leading up to the end of Project Batman 6 from his perspective and show his motivations and reasoning behind his actions in PB6. The script was finished and some of the movie was filmed but put on hiatus due to casting limitations.
==== Not a Hero ====
A movie centered around Commissioner Gordon's crimefighting during the first half of Project Robin 2. There were originally going to be more scenes focused around him in the original movie and Not a Hero would expand upon them.
==== Life of Crime ====
Life of Crime is be a backstory for Goro Akechi and showed how he climbed the ladder of becoming a DeadSec boss. The Trickster was also planned to be in this movie.
=== Sequel ===
There is a possibility that Project Robin 3 could happen in the future and be the last movie for Dick Grayson's character arc, however it is still up in the air if it will come out or not.
== Reception ==
Project Robin 2 was met with critical acclaim and like Project Batman 6, was praised for the step up in quality for all aspects such as action choreography, writing, and cinematography. Characters like Aiden and Goro Akechi became fan favorites in the movie and fans praised the writing of Aiden's character. Some critics praised the introduction of Michael Myers, though the critics who have said this are untrustworthy, such as Timothy Widener Fine Art. Little does he know that Project Halloween started production in 2022
== DVD Release ==
On September 12th, 2021, Project Robin 2 was released on DVD. It came included with the original edit of the club scene with alternate music and SFX along with the trailer for Project Justice League that was shown at the press conference. 
== Trivia ==
Project Robin 2 is the second Project Movie to contain gun violence (with the first being Project Batman 6). The action scenes were inspired by the movie John Wick but unlike PB6, the violence was less graphic most of the time despite the overall kill count being higher.
Goro Akechi is the second character based on the Persona video game series to appear in a movie. He has been confirmed to know The Trickster, but he isn't affiliated with him and his goals.
Whenever Superman is on screen, a train can be heard in the background. This is purely coincidental but some fans have speculated it's Superman's super-hearing ability or a reference to the fact he is "faster than a locomotive"
Project Robin 2 released in the same month that Project Robin released in (June).
