Do the avatar comic books get made ittl?

Yes they do.

A bisexual main character in 2005? Interesting; shows how far LGBT rights have advanced ITTL...

Mitchell Musso's being on this show butterflies away his role in Hannah Montana (assuming that show hasn't been butterflied away)...

Well, Pei Yan isn't really a main character. A major side character, and the bisexuality is implied, not outright stated (though Bryke do confirm later on that Ursa and Pei Yan were indeed a couple at one point).

Hannah Montana is indeed butterflied away, though there's a sort of similar show (about a young rocker, but she doesn't have a secret identity) where a young Elle King (of "Exes and Ohs" fame) plays the protagonist and Rob Schneider (her real life dad) plays the father.

So I assume that Obi-Wan fights Dooku instead of Grievous ITTL?

No, Anakin still fights Dooku. Obi-Wan fights him first, like IOTL, and Anakin has to come to Obi-Wan's aid, which allows Ventress to escape.

So uh what memes will be made from ROTS in TTL 2017?

Well, Vader's "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" still exists.
 
I'm talking about Lane on the TV show Lane, RySenkari; that's the bisexual main character I was talking about...

Good update, BTW...

Oh yeah, Lane. Yeah, that show is regarded as one of the most groundbreaking and popular dramas of the 2000s decade, Lane's coming out episode is considered as big a milestone for LGBT on television as Ellen's moment in the 1990s.
 
Hmmm._.

With A:TLA and Naruto on the same American cable channel this time, how will the fandom rivalry look in this timeline? Will Sora and the Land of Sky Ninjas be even more shoutouts to Aang and the Air Nomads, respectively?

Also, what will happen with the next two portable installments of Super Robot Wars?
 
Civility features Phil Hartman starring as an ambulance-chasing personal injury lawyer who has somewhat of a change of heart and starts to take on more noble cases (it's sort of a reverse Better Call Saul).
So, does that mean there's going to be a spin-off where one of his clients, a meth dealer, decides to straighten up and take on a career as a science teacher?

Toph, the blind Earthbender girl found by the group in Season 2 who serves as Aang's Earthbending teacher, is also fairly similar to OTL, though she's a bit older and is voiced by Taylor Swift instead of Jessie Flower as IOTL (ITTL, Taylor Swift still has more acting than singing aspirations as of the mid-2000s, having performed several guest roles on various TV shows as a child actress).
Oh. Look what you made her do. Look what you made her do. Look what you just made her do.

Don't tell me that Bryan Cranston doing a reverse Walter White wouldn't be interesting. A formerly bad man slowly regaining his morals whilst trying to keep his family safe from his former criminal associates.

TTL's me is going to be baffled at Game Over's thin-skinned drama-hungry pop diva Taylor Swift. Though I've always been confused whether comments regarding "Game Over" are at the time or in the present. I'm going for present day since I wasn't on the forum until 2013.

I thought that was a given.

Speaking of, I am not sorry.

Jesus fucking Christ, I want it to be known that I hate how I am practically saying this for the first time ever in my life: shut the fuck up, Taylor Swift! Nobody cares what they "made you do"! Seriously, why is she unable to take criticism ITTL?! Why the fuck did you need to find it necessary to nuke Taylor Swift?!

And I don't know what Adam Sandler did to deserve having his TTL career consist mostly of moronic juvenile comedies that started at mediocre and went down from there. The worst video game movie of all time, an animated Hanukkah movie filled with pointless product placement and toilet humor, and a movie where he plays a brother and his annoying drag queen sister. It's like Ry was daring himself to see how low the Rotten Tomatoes scores can go.

As Denis Leary might say, "Two words: Billy Madison." All Ry did was imagine a Sandler who never got to rise above that level, which is a brutal but eminently reasonable side-effect of him making this Happy Gilmore thing instead of being in Barcode.

(Edited per woweed's reply.)

(Note as my OTL self: I assume the two Sandler movies in question still got made ITTL, but that The Waterboy was butterflied by him being in Saving Private Ryan.)
Actually, Happy Gilmore wasn't made ITTL:
As for Adam Sandler, Billy Madison was a success, but instead of going on to do Happy Gilmore, he was offered a chance to audition for the role of Milla Jovavich's love interest in Barcode. His performance in the movie (as a semi-comic relief but also somewhat tragic character) was praised and he's currently being considered for some more dramatic roles in future films.

I'm not too sure about Robot Wars, and as for fandom rivalries, I imagine W.I.T.C.H. and Avatar would have a fairly major one in similar fashion to the one between Sailor Moon and Dragonball Z.

But does "do not want" still exist

Nope, butterflies would slightly affect that particular translation.

Breaking Bad is butterflied by Vince Gilligan and M. Night Shyamalan working on a superhero show together around the same time, though there might be a few elements of OTL Breaking Bad that make it in (along with a few elements of OTL Unbreakable and Split).

And Taylor Swift still has some time to become a thin-skinned drama queen: while she's concentrating on acting for now, she's never given up on having a music career.

All the greatness of both, with none of the troubling subtext! Hopefully. Also, I find it appropriate that you're mentioning this just after the Avatar post. Also, if Swift is getting into voice-acting, I hope she gets to voice some game parts sometime.
