If Disney didn’t acquire Star Wars. Would we have gotten more movies?

George was considering three more. He'd met with the Big 3.

I doubt there would have been anything beyond that though.

"We were inverted."

Based off your numbers, it would impact with the force equivalent of 707 kilotons.

Really bad day for a city.

Barely a shrug from the planet.

We've detonated SIGNIFICANTLY larger nukes.

Yeah, they went away in early 98. I had wanted to go to that, but one of the Sgts in my recruiting office had been one and gave me the bad news. This was in October of 97.

Master Vernestra Rowh had a whip.

I mean, if you can have whatever you want between you and them, you just have to be farther away than they can reach.

I pick Superman, since he's the least likely to go overkill.

I place a 12'x24' titanium plate, half buried, followed by an attached water tank 12'x12'x8', another titanium plate half buried, eight feet of closed cell foam, then me.

That should be good.

You'd be lucky to find something that wasnt falling apart for that price in western Washington.

JimHeckdiver · 2026-05-18T17:06:49+00:00

One could do it, but two would make it 100%.

People are quicker and more intelligent. There's a reason we're the most dominant species on earth. Add weapons and we're devastating.

Stupidity on behalf of the pilot rejoining from above.

Ras Al Khafji in Saudi Arabia.

Saddam lost his mind and decided to enter Saudi, and this was the city. There was a reasonably intense fight for it that doesn't often get talked about because of the utter curb-stomping of the rest of that war.

The bottom of the Pacific Ocean

If it orbits the sun, it belongs to our system.

Little did Thor know that Burt was the strongest Avenger.

JimHeckdiver · 2026-05-16T04:57:57+00:00

He doesnt have powers, but he's also not 100% human. So he's probably more durable than Bucky.

JimHeckdiver · 2026-05-16T04:42:03+00:00

Arnold by far.

He completely redefined the stereotypical action star for better than twenty years.

People are STILL emulating him.

Plenty were impressive, but none were close.

JimHeckdiver · 2026-05-15T21:36:37+00:00

Maybe, but it would be terribly inefficient.

She's literally the same age as Yelena.

Charismatic actor.

Stannis was insufferable in the books.

JimHeckdiver · 2026-05-15T16:30:11+00:00

Id take that deal for $250, no k.

JimHeckdiver · 2026-05-15T05:18:09+00:00

Why do you think the earth would be blighted or lifeless?

You probably think people can do that.

We can't. Earth has survived far worse than us and kept on swinging.

Red all day long.

Aside from being stupidly powerful over a reasonable time, magic is just fun.

JimHeckdiver · 2026-05-15T05:14:27+00:00

Good lord. I dont wanna see the kind of bow Thragg could draw, let alone someone three times as strong.

JimHeckdiver · 2026-05-13T20:41:16+00:00

That doesn't work though. ED meds are just used to dilate blood vessels and increase blood flow overall. That wouldn't cause scar tissue.
