On December 30th, 1938, Marshal Edward Smigly-Rydz would make a very fateful decision, he would all forces in the Warsaw Area to be all put on High Military Alert.

A Polish Air Force PZL. 23 Karas Light Bomber flying near Warsaw. The Polish Air Force like the Army in the Warsaw region were all on very high alert. The High Commanders would for sure know the reason why for the alert, it was in case Poland were to get into a war with the Polish Gods of Old.

To the West, the Third Reich didn't fail to notice of what is happening in Poland, Hitler himself got a feeling that something not good is bound to happen in Warsaw, and as such, might effect Germany.

Czechoslovakia in the wake of the Sudetenland Crisis of 1938 would also ready their forces in case of something were to break in Poland. December 31st, 1938. (ignore the Swastika Flag)

The USSR would also move troops to it's with Poland, and Red Army Commanders would plan for an invasion of the country if the see the right opportunity.

A Polish wz. 37 37mm AT gun near the Polish-Soviet Border, these were the defenses against a possible Soviet Invasion in a possible conflict with the Gods. The Polish High Command held the fear that the Gods of old had allied themselves with either the Soviets or the Germans. However, Ozwiena would truthfully tell them that she and the other Gods hold no alliances with either the Bolsheviks or the Nazis.​

Did Ali go into acting after being stripped of his title ?

He was still boxing in this ATL after the fact. He did a lot of crazy things, another I may get into later on.
Also a bigger question would be "SINATRA RAN FOR PRESIDENT?!"

 

[Mr.Gatsby]

SINATRA RAN FOR PRESIDENT?!"

I would vote for him as long as his Slogan is

“Have the country my way”

The first poster for Genndy Tartakovskies full length animated film Superman, released in 2015. Superman, starring Karl Urban, Rashida Jones, James Spader, Keith David and John Goodman would be loved by critics and audiences, loved for its animation, uplifting feeling (Including Walk by Foo Fighters and Mr Blue Sky by ELO on the soundtrack) and its voice acting, and would go on to jumpstart the DC Animated Cinematic Universe, which would be followed by The Batman in 2017...

When the Discovery Channel crew filming the documentry 'In Search Of Monsters' were filming a segment on Hawaii, they did not know that they would capture footage that would forever change the world. They filmed what can only be described as a 'giant monster octopus' crawling ashore. They filmed the creature as it attacked and ate a small village on the shore before it returned to the ocean. This would prove that other monsters exist besides the two that attacked New York:


On the way back to the mainland US after filming the documentary, the Discovery Channel crew would once again capture a world-changing image. While shooting some parting shots of Hawaii, cameraman Bryan Wailer shoot footage of what appears to be a giant monster following their ship. After trailing the ship for a few minutes, the creature submerged and vanished from sight:

A closing shot from Toho's Godzilla vs. Super Mecha Godzilla (1993). Originally the film ended with Godzilla being healed by the demise of Rodan, Godzilla destroying Mecha Godzilla, and the baby Godzilla following the larger kaiju out to the sea.

However, a quick rewrite and short re shoot resulted in a new ending:

Shelley Sweeney's character, a pilot of Mecha Godzilla, is revealed to be an android midway through the film. Near the climax, her AI (which was salvaged from the system of Mecha King Ghidorah) turns hostile and she turns on her team and forces them to evacuate while she turns Mecha Godzilla's weapons on the dying Godzilla, Rodan, humanity, and the Baby Godzilla...

Before all is lost, Godzilla receives enough strike to damage MG which kills Godzilla. Godzilla's nuclear energy is close to exploding until Rodan collides with him and the two burst into flame. The android reboots herself and MG, but to her surprise, the kaiju have vaporized. MG turns towards the fleeing survivors before a concentrated blast of atomic fire strikes and melts the machine. Radiation levels plummet and the evacuees turn to see an angry, glowing, fully grown baby Godzilla.

A surprise indeed, any were unaware of the dramatic change until news broke of Tristar's progress on their Godzilla movie...

Meanwhile, Tristar releases James Cameron's Spiderman (1995) , starring Michael Biehn as Peter Parker and the title webhead, Molly Ringwald as Mary Jane Watson, Olympia Dukakis as Aunt May, Stan Lee as J. Jonah Jameson, and Dolph Lundgren as Dr. Otto Octavius. Cameron had originally envisioned Arnold Schwarzenegger as Doc Ock before he thought of including up to two more villains. With costs mounting, Cameron was ordered to have only one villain and save money elsewhere. So he picked Rocky IV actor and chemical engineer Dolph Lundgren to play the villain. Fans were quick to attack the production, citing Michael Biehn to be too old and Cameron's unfamiliarity with comics. However, Cameron took some advice and implemented some welcome changes: A lengthy opening credit scene showing Spiderman's origins (including some scenes from "the night gwen stacy died", but with faces out of focus.) and the story proper beginning with a tired Peter Parker graduating from college with a triple major for teaching, chemical engineering, and physics; while still freelancing at the Bugle and living in a studio with Mary Jane.

The film is a magnificent hit and Tristar begins developing a sequel while prepping Godzilla for release...



Ben Affleck as Superman/ Clark Kent in DC/ Warner Bros's Superman Lives (1997, directed by Robert Rodriguez). A two hour plus adaptation of the Death of Superman DC storyline written by Kevin Smith; Ben Affleck takes over the mantle of the man of steel from Christopher Reeve, and leads of heroes, villains, and those caught in between: Claire Forlani (Lois Lane), Clancy Brown (Lex Luthor), Charlton Heston (Perry White), Michael Clarke Duncan (John Henry Irons/ Steel), Casey Affleck (Jimmy Olsen), Keith David (Jon Jonzz), Nathan Fillion (Green Lantern), David Duchovny (Batman), Christina Hendricks (Wonder Woman), Robert Patrick (Brainiac) and Doomsday (motion capture of Hulk Hogan and voice work by Clancy Brown)

The phenomenal success surpasses the producers' dreams and frightens Tristar, but instead of cutting or meddling, they give Carpenter more funds to make Godzilla king.

A nuclear bomb had just been tested on British soil. The Ministry of Defence said this was part of something called Project Metatron, their new nuclear weapons program, meant to act simply as a deterrent, though many people, such as the New Irish Republican Army saw this as them saying “Don’t ---- with us”.
The iconic footage of the bomb's testing received it the nickname "The Crimson King".

Also starring Michael Wincott as Billionaire and Playboy Bruce Wayne, Timothy Dalton as Alfred Pennyworth, and Troy Baker as a petty criminal who may in fact become the cities greatest threat.

Many younger pilots in the IJAAS have taken up decorating their aircrafts similar to how the Allied Powers would back in WW2, with nose art, sometimes even featuring cartoon characters. This has been encouraged by superiors, seeing the incorporation of cartoon characters as a useful tool to recruiting more soldiers.

The Imperial Japanese Army is among the largest and advanced standing armies in the East.
