Promising Young Woman has actually given me an idea fora Batman pitch, which I am going to post here since I obviously have no aspirations of ever working for DC Comics. For all I know, it's been done in some elseworlds, but I'm gonna try anyway. (1/x)
Okay, so we open on a glitzy dinner. A bunch of obnoxious rich people are wining and dining together. They get into discussing their businesses, and the youngest man there starts discussing his interest in getting into the arms business, with an older man w a trophy wife (2/x)
The older man says it's a great business, but he didn't know Waynecorp was interested, the liability has gotten so high lately, what with all the school shootings. "Everyone who gets shot in an alley these days can su - I mean. Um" (3/x)
Bruce replies that it's fine, he believes companies have to make money however they can, and makes conversation with the trophy wife for a bit. He arranges a business meeting to discuss a possible acquisition of the gun company by Waynecorp (4/x)
We switch to the trophy wife (we'll call her Susan)'s POV, as she and her gun CEO husband wait for an Uber. They get into the Uber from the backseat and remark that the driver looks a little shady, and this is why the CEO always carries his own gun (5/x)
