  1. WI: Layne Staley and Lindsay Lohan's outcomes switch?

    Not even close. Those bands had haters when they were popular, while AIC were still popular and relevant when Layne died IOTL.

  2. WI: Pop Culture in a world without 9/11?

    I may have said this earlier in the thread, but going back to music, I could see Country pivoting back to an "outlaw" style again, maybe as a backlash against the glossy pop country.

  3. WI: Cliff Burton lives

    Let's say Metallica's bus driver is able to avoid hitting the patch of black ice and Cliff Burton survives. Do Metallica still change their sound in the 90s and gain their commercial success?

  4. When You Wish Upon a Nightmare - WDAS Collapses in the 80s

    I wonder how this affects television animation, since this butterflies away the Disney Afternoon and all of the Disney Channel cartoons as well.

  5. Terror in Littleton: How a tragedy shaped a nation

    Is internet piracy (ie, downloading music from sites like Napster) still prevalent in this TL?

  6. Worst movies/TV shows that never existed

    Bubblegum Crisis: The Movie (2000). While the story and setting was accurate to the anime, having the cast consist entirely of country music stars for some bizzare reason (ie, Shania Twain as Priss, among other casting oddities) meant the film was completely lacking in actors who worked. Most...

  7. 1999: Cheryl Chase and Cree Summer killed in car crash

    You could get rid of Susie by just saying her family moved away, but Angelica is harder as you'd have to get rid of Drew and Charlotte as well.

  8. Comics WI: No X-Men revival in the 70s

    Some thoughts: The Champions book could last longer, Cyclops, Jean, Banshee, and Havok likely get their own stories in mini-series and anthology books, but never a full on series. Alpha Flight may still be around, and their struggle is to capture Wolverine, but stuff like the Claws being part...

  9. Comics WI: No X-Men revival in the 70s

    Let's say Marvel decides not to bring back the X-Men after all and it becomes a forgotten book, one of their rare 60s failures. How does this affect Marvel and future storylines (remember that all the characters up into the book going dormant are still around in the MU, and so is Woverine).

  10. Remake Videodrome to fit 2003 +

    It would probably have to be hosted on the dark web, though that could lead to some interesting stuff too.

  11. AHC: A plausible timeline to leave all post-1985 Anglophone Pop culture unrecognizable

    After it's infamous 85-86 season, NBC decides to cancel Saturday Night Live, having a huge impact on comedy and entertainment in general.

  12. AHC: A plausible timeline to leave all post-1985 Anglophone Pop culture unrecognizable

    Maybe the VCR never really takes off and is discontinued by 1985. This would have a big butterfly effect, especially on movies and tv, since there's no way to "revisit" them.

  13. Marvel collapses as a corporation in the late 90s

    I cant see the Marvel heroes fitting into the Image universe, especially since Image was seen by many to be style over substance.

  14. 80s pop culture if Carter wins in 80, and Mondale wins in 84 and 88?

    Let's say that Jimmy Carter wins re-election in 1980, then Mondale wins in 1984 and again in 1988. How would pop culture be affected? One that may seem minor but would be a huge change may be that Carter doesnt de-regulate Children's Television, meaning a lot of the toy-based shows of the 80s...

  15. Worst movies/TV shows that never existed

    Mission Earth: The Invaders Plan (1989). The first (and only) film in a planned 10 film series based off of the L Ron Hubbard Dekalogy. Besides the convoluted plot and the lack of any likable characters (even the ones who were supposed to be "good" were too cocky to gain audience sympathy), the...

  16. Worst movies/TV shows that never existed

    Beavis and Butthead The Movie (1995) Live Action version of the popular cartoon, starring David Spade as Beavis, Adam Sandler as Butthead, Janeane Garafolo as Daria, Macauley Culkin as Stewart, Chris Farley as Principal McVicker and Ernest Borgnine as Mr. Anderson. The film went even more...

  17. WI: Mick Foley died at King of the Ring 98?

    If WCW becomes the only game in town, that doesnt bode well for Shawn Michaels, as he'd likely be wanting to go to WCW where he immediately hooks back up with the Kliq and falls into their hard-partying lifestyle (not to mention having to deal with the backstage politics, which were much more...

  18. WI: Mick Foley died at King of the Ring 98?

    Wonder if we ever get an alternate federation for wrestlers who dont want to work for WCW. I also wonder if TNA, ROH, or even AEW eventually come up.

  19. WI: Mick Foley died at King of the Ring 98?

    I wonder how this affects WCW and ECW as well. WCW shouldnt be affected too much since they never did overly dangerous gimmick matches at this time (maybe War Games at Fall Brawl 98 is cancelled or just takes place without the cage), but ECW likely tones itself way down, which means they may...

  20. WI: No "score bug"?

    For those who dont know, the score bug is the graphic on screen during sporting events that displays the current score at all times (as opposed to when the team scores). What if this never caught on, would it have a major effect on sports or not?
