Tomorrow is the official announcement for the results for both The Quest for Canonization and round 3 auditions, but before that, we have some news to share! Let's get started!
First, we would like to unveil a brand-new poster created for Poster Madness! It's for Com 50 and 007, and it's one that shows the title characters together in a face-off against a Cal Pada Ninja as Shriff Aha evilly laughs.
In other news, we've updated a bit of canon with the entries for The Quest for Canonization and more, as it came to light that two of our movies cannot coexist on the same timeline. So, here is what has been changed.
- Both entries for The Quest for Canonization, which are A Greater Cost by Elizabeth Scarheart and Mystery in the Karoo by Marcus Hutchinson, are now part of the cinematic universe. Check the timeline below to see how they fit in.
- The Drama Zone: Nightmare at Shady Acres now takes place in Dimension 525 (also home to Com 50: Peril in Iran and DINO Attack: Saga of a Conflict), as it cannot exist in the same timeline as Mystery of Shady Acres.
- Alpha Team vs. the Black Cat, due to a general hatred for the film, has been ret-conned. All of its events are no longer part of the cinematic universe.
Now, for the moment you've all been waiting for: the official Mustache Maniacs Film Co. cinematic universe timeline! Inspired by a recent timeline for the Marvel Cinematic Universe, this is a chronological order of every canon film and other content, from beginning to end. For the record, this list includes currently-released content that is part of the universe (sorry, no fan choice awards on this list!), as well as all Project U content.

This is the current canon timeline of events, but if things happen in regards to scheduling, it may be revised to reflect our ever-changing schedules. That's all we have today, so stay tuned for tomorrow's announcement! See you then!
A Greater Cost takes place during 3 time periods. What made you choose 2012 over the other two?
ReplyDeleteTheoretically, "When Barrels Fly," "Late for the Soccer Match," and "A Future in the Past" all run into this same issue, as do films that flash back (like "Attack of the Fifty-Foot Hamster") or flash-forward (like "New Friends"). The reason why I picked 2012 as the chronological year for that film is because 2012 was the year that Ulysses S. Powell came to the present day and was also the year that he helped Dr. Cyber test the Hypno Cruiser. Technically speaking, though, this timeline is less of an exact chronology and more of an official order to watch the films in if you want to get the whole story in an order that makes the most sense.
