    A Hippie in the House of Mouse (Jim Henson at Disney, 1980)

    I always assumed the Valencia site was EuroDisney. I've been very confused by all the talk of making sure it was 'Spanish enough' when it's supposed to give nods to everything between Lisbon and Moscow.

    It's the second time a Stuart TL I've collaborated on gets a Turtledove. Congratulations to both co-winners.

    Hmm this is true

    WI: The Enterprise completes its five year mission (Star Trek survives for 5 seasons)

    Thank you for using my story idea. I’ll see what others occur to me. Regarding TMP: I disagree that $139 on a $46 million budget was not a success - it is. From what I understand Peooke where disappointed TMP was slow and long rather than it made no cash. It made nearly triple its budget-...
  5. Somewhat novel idea for Vinland

    By the looks of it, the island shore seems to be entirely made of sheer cliffs rising straight from the water, with no place for boats to come ashore let alone a natural harbor, so I'm not sure a fishing settlement would work.
  6. AHC: Improve the New Super Mario Bros. series

    I dunno, but I’d love to see a time-travel themed Mario game, which could possible show us the history of the Mushroom Kingdom. It would be cool to see Peach be the deuteragonist, and Mario and Peach’s relationship outside of the former saving the latter develop. It’s almost like Mario is the...
  7. WI Italy discovers oil in Libya in early 1930s?

    The harbour capacity was fine - Benghazi, Tripoli and Tobruk are all great natural harbours. The port infrastructure was lacking - cranes, dock workers, dockside railroads, warehousing, machinery to move around goods and dock workers were all missing. But none of that was as crucial as the lack...

    WI: Castilian-Portuguese union instead of Castilian-Aragonese union?

    Or rather have Isabella of Aragon have a son with Alfonso of Portugal and have Ferdinand marry Germaine, Ferdinand hates John II of Portugal and his line.
  9. Byzantines reconquer southern Italy and Rome by 1100, how does Christendom develop from there?

    Hard to really see the Romans being able to hold Rome without a lot of difficulty. Central Italy is a long way from their power base and they have plenty of bigger fish to fry in the mid-long run. The Papacy quite possibly sets itself up elsewhere regardless.
  10. Film WI: If "Blazing Saddles" had the "original" casting

    John Wayne in blazing saddles would basically play a character that make fun of his former characters. Also, were he not affected by cancer then?

  12. A Thorn In The Rose: A War Of The Roses TL

    Is the OTL 13th Earl of Oxford going to be the 13th Earl ITTL, though- wouldn't his elder brother Aubrey (OTL executed by alongside their father) still be alive here?
  13. WI Italy discovers oil in Libya in early 1930s?

    I thought pretty much the same thing. There's less chance of the UK sending forces to Greece, because taking Libya would be of importance. So they might wrap up NA in 1940. Also the harbor capacity was limited in Libya, although with the discovery of oil that could have been expanded before...

  17. Until Every Drop of Blood Is Paid: A More Radical American Civil War

    Do take your time, your physical and mental health come first.
  18. WI Italy discovers oil in Libya in early 1930s?

    If I remember correctly, Libyan oil lies deep and only the Japanese, British and Americans have the know-how to extract deep oil during the 30s, and all three are dependent on US industry to deliver the equipment needed for it. Should Italy join the war, they may like the Japanese find that they...

    Linguistic situation of Britain with no Saxons.

    The Angle dialects spread North of the Humber without any Saxons involved though. https://www.historyfiles.co.uk/FeaturesBritain/BritishMapAD450-700.htm
