As Dreamers Do: American Magic Redux

[PNWKing]

Also, is Saturn going to be a thing ITTL?

 

[OldNavy1988]

Has The Simpsons run in Britain, and if so where?

It is shown on Channel 4 in the UK.

Also, is Saturn going to be a thing ITTL?

If you're referring to the Saturn car company, it's already making cars since 1990.

 

[TheMatthew25]

If you're referring to the Saturn car company, it's already making cars since 1990.

Think he meant the Sega Saturn. Though, I am curious if the Pontiac cars will still be a thing ITTL. I was going to ask in your old American Magic but you switch to this one before I could ask. (I actually am fond of the Pontiac brand since I was a kid despite not being a car guy.)

Also is Puyo Puyo going to be release normally without alterations (aka not becoming Mean Bean Machine). And if I can make a suggestion, can we have Panel de Pon (Puzzle League/Tetris Attack/ Pokémon Puzzle League-Challenge (GBC)) be release to the US and become popular ITTL. I really like Panel de Pon (and recently bought it Game Boy release (under Tetris Attack) the other day), it a fun, fast pace, and enjoyable puzzle game that deserve better then what it gets OTL.

I thought we were going to get spider man

 

[QTXAdsy]

Is Space Mountain the same as OTL orginal version for I'd hate for it not to have The wonderful Jules Verne themeing that they have butchered recently.

Will we see the 20k Sub ride from WDW make it sometime soon in this version of Discoveryland?

 

[Denliner]

I'm surprised that Discoveryland is even a thing in this timeline considering Walt Disney Sr. is still alive. Guess he and Jr. had no objections to radically change the land to suit Tony Baxter's ideas.

If Discoveryland has the same theming then there's no reason for Space Mountain to be any different in Euro Disneyland.

We are, but I had been neglecting to do an update on EuroDisney.

Yeah, I didn't want to see Baxter's ideas go to waste.

I hope to hear about the 1992 Presidential. Have the democrats picked a candidate yet?

1: The exact opposite to the result IOTL. Not too bad, man.
2: Would Capitol Critters get the same relocation? Just curious.
3: It's a good thing this is a pop culture timeline. Otherwise, we'd see a much more cynical view on the world.
4: I'd go with Columbia-TriStar Home Video on this.
5: So, Golden Harvest of America is going to be responsible for Power Rangers? In that case, I'm glad that Saban merged with DIC, as without that merger AND without PR, they'd probably have gone under much sooner.

If that were possible, then would it be possible?

I wonder what changes ITTL will do to MMPR compared to OTL. Hopefully if ITTL Power Rangers gets second season, it would just adapt the Dairangers suit (not just White Ranger suit) but keep Lord Zedd as the main villain.

I think it will require Toei to reject doing the Zyu2 footage straight up in order for Power Rangers to get the Dairanger footage + suits.

Zyu2

Zyu2 is a fan coined term referring to Japanese footage filmed exclusively for use in Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. Before the series had began, Saban had Toei film scenes involving the villains (with both Machiko Soga and Ami Kawai reprising their Zyuranger roles as Rita Repulsa and Scorpina...

Like I said, I didn't want Baxter's ideas to go to waste.

Fair enough. I think Tony Baxter's ideas for Discovery Bay/Discoveryland are impressive enough to blow away old Walt and Walt Jr., so I can see it being a reality here, even if I would've preferred a standard Tomorrowland because Walt is alive ITTL.

Very nice.

 

[TheMatthew25]

I think it will require Toei to reject doing the Zyu2 footage straight up in order for Power Rangers to get the Dairanger footage + suits.

And I am okay with this. Though, I would like if Toei would help create some original monsters for MMPR starting with Season 2 and 3.

Something I forgot to add in my last post, I would rather have the thrud season keep the Dairangers suits and keep the Alien Rangers stuff. Basically have the MMPR team use the Ninja Megazord while the Shogun Megazord and Battleborgs (the third mechs that the Alien Rangers use without needing to pilot them.)

Basically have the Alien Rangers more importants to the main story. Still keep the season ending episode the same so you have them become the Zeo Rangers next season.
