In the spirit of That Wacky Redhead and a couple hours work on this stupid phone (I miss my computer ) I have found a way for Gerald Ford to be re-elected via a TV show. I'm rather self-satisfied about it too .
Ah, the magic of television! Looking forward to seeing which show it is that puts him over the top!I have found a way for Gerald Ford to be re-elected via a TV show. I'm rather self-satisfied about it too .

Hehehe...Wait...What? that is even possible? Jerry Ford comeback to the white house? that would avoid us even both Bush... you want to make your timeline a Utopia right? A Sega-Panasonic Alliance? The Triforce of Nintendo-Apple-Sony and Max Headroom and now this....
Well better, yes. In the background. Jerry Ford is one of the easiest possible people to have win in 1976. It'll take out the first Bush certainly (he's happy being in charge of the CIA for another four years) and it'll likely take out Bush the son as well.
As for the timeline proper some things will be the same, others will be different, and there's a longer stretch of time to play which will also effect things.
Did this thread get added ?
Michael Dukakis will not fare better than OTL(even he was a Sacrifical Lamb)
So, in the spirit of fostering discussion about popular culture, and helping to shepherd this thread away from War-And-Politics, let's talk about Batman.
More specifically, let's talk about how he might make it to the big screen, in the post-Adam West era. Of the many possibilities bandied about, a few seem near-constant: a self-consciously "serious" interpretation of the Dark Knight, to counteract the farce and camp of the 1960s TV series; a dark, stylish, noir-influenced atmosphere; and emphasis on "mature" themes.
How else might Batman have arrived on the big screen, if not in its OTL form? Who would the major players have been? Would there have been any specific influences, different from those of OTL? How would the film be received? What would potential sequels look like? Would there be spin-offs or spiritual successors, like the beloved Timm/Dini Animated Series?
A lot of intriguing possibilities here...
I thought you meant there was another update, you got my hopes up.An Alternate Rise of the Blockbuster is updated and boy, is it a long one this time.
It certainly sounds interesting. Is there any information on what of scripts/film he was interested in?
And, of course, how will this effect Star Trek?
What's interesting is that your timeline will likely have a POD in 1965 - making it earlier than any of ours (including mine, by about a year).What do you guys think? Any speculation or criticism?
And, of course, how will this effect Star Trek?
