The last time I heard someone get called a huk, it was in a star wars old eu story about general grievous. In his peoole's language, huk means souless bug. Does the Japanese government still refuse to apologize for the atrocities they committed during ww2?
 
Yep. This September in fact.

But really, this got me thinking....In ATL 2017, could such a movie still be made? Or would things with Stalin, and the USSR just be too dark to even go there?

The best comedy knows how to make a joke out of the most horrific of things, I mean look at the Dark Satire of the early simpsons

Movie Stalin's death and afterwards probably would be ratherly like OTL Downfall. Or then there is movie about Stalin's last years.

Just wondering when there was so many great scale genocides and ethnic purges, has some other ethnic/religious group or Soviet Jews own version of Anne Frank?

And as Finn big question is when Finland got Porkkala back or has it? And what Finland is doing now with Soviet Civil War? Probably not be going take its territories back.

And I would see that.

I wonder if Anne Frank would be overlook if so? I mean, the Soviet and Stalin crimes has become far worst then Hitler, and more so after Stalin's death with the second civil war.

Unlikely since I think the Rebels control that.
 
Could you both elaborate since I don't know anything about the Vietnam war

TL;DR, we went in to prop up the South Vietnamese, we couldn't invade the North because of the Soviets and Chinese having nukes pointed at us, and then we lost the war thanks to strategic blunders, and because we didn't have nearly enough men in there, nor did the government have the support of its own people.

At the moment, they're Syndicalist nope, I was off.

Yes. North Vietnamese Socialism (or as it's called ITTL Ho Chi Minh Thought/Hoism) is authoritarian and highly nationalistic, focusing primarily on reuniting Vietnam.

Meaning they'll be trying soft options, without any superpower assistance. Which means there's now a fair bit of pressure on South Vietnam to shape up. Might even have the Dragon Lady find herself with even less support domestically.
 
Get ready everyone.
I feel I might prefer the graphic novel it was based on. Seems less The Hangoveresque. Might have worded that badly as I HAVE read the graphic novel, but I have not seen The Hangover. Perhaps they just kept the kooky stuff mostly to the trailer. Not as if they could make a serious film and expect it to be as successful as a comedy. Though Downfall was popular enough.
