  1. AHC: Save "Green Lantern"

    It was one of the few Non-Superman/Batman movies from the DC Universe. It seemed to have the right minds behind it, and seemed to be TRYING to stay true to the source material. But somehow... somewhere... things went wrong. How could this have been averted?!? *My Own Proposal* -Maybe...

  2. Plausbility Check: Akira Kurosawa tapped to do a Western??

    In the late 60's, Akira Kurosawa's contract to Toho came to an end, and desiring change, he sought work outside of Japan. This would eventually lead to him 'working' on stuff like "Runaway Train" and "Tora! Tora! Tora!". As you can probably guess by the quotations, these didn't exactly work out...

  3. Plausibility Check: Sino-Soviet Split leads to all-out War?

    In the 60's the once "allies" began to split over differing interpretations over relations with/attitudes towards Capitalist countries, not to mention Mao's various programs/revolutions. Words soon turned to armed conflict by the late 60's. Though things soon cooled down (to an extent) could...

  4. Plausibility Check: Yamamoto Defects to the US

    Yamamoto always seemed to be a man of contradictions at times, always reading about how he was opposed to alot of what his country was doing yet still went with it (some of this could be simple romanticism). He seemed to be the only realist of the Imperial Army at times, especially in regards to...

  5. Plausibility Check: WI South Vietnam fell during a Second Term for Kennedy

    This ATL deals with Kennedy not being assassinated as well as problems surrounding Vietnam. Inspired by the documentary "Virtual JFK", which shows that besides the Bay of Pigs, (which wasn't really fought by American forces... technically) Kennedy seemingly had a strong aversion to engaging in...

  6. Plausibility Check: Abraham Lincoln impeached post-Civil War

    Don't know if this kind of thing has been asked before, but was curious none the less. And the full question was kinda hard to fit into the title slot. This is from an ATL WI where Lincoln was never assassinated. Since Lincoln, after winning the Civil War, was on a platform of a smoother...

  7. Soviet Assassination of John Wayne proceeds

    If wikipedia is to be believed (mighty big "if" mind you), supposedly Stalin had ordered the assassination of John Wayne (despite reportedly being a big fan, again if wikipedia is to be believed) due to the actor's strong anti-communist politics. In OTL, Stalin died before it could proceed and...

  8. WI Yamamoto Survives

    Admiral Yamamoto, the architect behind the Pearl Harbor attacks, yet (according to possible popular myth) seemed to be quite reluctant about the task at hand, and held no delusions about his chances against the US, unlike many of his colleagues. He died during an inspection tour throughout the...

  9. Plausibility Check: Pearl Harbor hits an Isolationist America (w/o FDR as president)

    Just been wondering what would've happened without a guy like FDR as president, with an isolationist America suddenly being hit by something like Pearl Harbor. Would it even still happen without FDR's administration (in regards to policies towards the Japanese and military build-up)?? Would...

  10. Slight Miscalculation: WI Wright Bros Never Succeeded?

    *shrugs* hope this hasn't been done before, if so than I apologize. But I've been wondering what the world would be like if the Wright Bros. never succeeded in their attempts at controlled flight. Perhaps giving up after way too many failures, or perhaps became too hesitant to continue after...

  11. World War 3: Third Reich vs. Imperial Japan

    Basically two what-if situations (GASP :eek:), what if the Axis Won, who would get what? How would the Americas be divided up, if at all? And next, what if these two "allies" decided that what they got after the war wasn't enough, and wanted more, who would win in this brand new world war...

  12. Would "1984" be considered an actual alternate history?

    CAN'T seem to find the little clarifications, and whatnot, about what constitutes as "alternate history" when it comes to some of these stories, movies, etc. Mainly because it's a "prediction" of future events, from the perspective of the past. SO, since it outlines events that may or may not...

  13. AH Challenge: Better Deal for Native Americans?

    Anyone who knows about American History knows about the really crappy deal that was dealt Native Americans. Now while their situation has improved since the earlier days, considerably, it's still not all "whine and roses", if you know what I mean. So how could, in an obviously AH sense, have...

  14. Flintstones = Stonepunk??

    That's right!!! Stonepunk!!! No electricity, no steam, nothing but rocks, stones, skins, and maybe a few animals thrown in. Forget Steampunk, Cyberpunk, or even Dieselpunk... these cavemen guys are making machines out of STONES that really work!!! Like TVs and washing machines!!! THAT'S...

  15. DBWI: President Kennedy WAS Assassinated?

    Who could forget that situation in Dallas where that crazy bastard Lee Harvey Oswald opened fire upon John F. Kennedy's motorcade? We almost lost a president that day!! But I can't help but wonder... what would've happened had Oswald's aim been a bit better? How would the situation with them...

  16. List of AH-related media (books, movies, shows, games, etc.)

    Doesn't look like there's ever been a list created for all the different kinds of media that are related to Alternate History. Something for people to refer to, like an archive, when they wanna go and track down all the various things that are related to this interest. Be it movies, TV shows...

  17. WI Japan Invaded the US?

    (Sorry if this has been asked already, which I'm quite sure it probably has. >.>;; ) Isoroku Yamamoto wasn't going to kid himself about the situation in the Pacific, he knew that the only real way to ensure victory against the US would be to, in his own words, "march into the Washington, and...

  18. WI Japan "Meijied" Earlier?

    Basically, what would've happened if Japan had not decided to largely isolate itself from the rest of the world, in the 1700's, as well as tried to modernize itself earlier as well? Would they try and expand their empire? Try and conquer places like Korea, Manchuria, the Phillipines...
