Re: "The Mitchells vs. the Machines" - Anyone see it yet?
So this is another victim of COVID, an animated movie delayed from theaters until they finally just gave to NetFlix. Among its producers are Miller and Lord, the fellows behind at least one of the Lego movies and "Into the Spider-Verse", and this movie is very much in the spirit of that o...

Re: 'Firefly' what if...?
I had an idea for a 'Firefly' fanfic in which the Independent Planets (Browncoats) triumph over the Alliance, due to a third party's intervention- in short, if the Alliance was Ukraine, the Browncoats were Donbas, kept "independent" thanks to support from a third party that is the Russia ...

Re: World War III, The 36-Hour War of 1948
There is an interesting combination of imagination and lack of imagination involved in "Part V." On the one hand, the idea of decentralizing the country (not very practical since it guts the peacetime economy) and the idea of fortified centers for launching a nuclear retaliation... But at...

Re: Why the United states already feared war with Japan in the 1930s
In the 1930s the US created what were known as the color plans, the most famous being the "Rainbow Plans" that were created at the start of WWII. These included all sorts of scenarios, some very off. But since Japan had been in a massive naval buildup since the end of WWI and represented ...
