Ve haff vays ov mayking you talk."You say that it is your custom to burn widows. Very well. We also have a custom: when men burn a woman alive, we tie a rope around their necks and we hang them. Build your funeral pyre; beside it, my carpenters will build a gallows. You may follow your custom. And then we will follow ours."--General Sir Charles James Napier

People like Napoleon or the top Nazis come to power after intense and brutal strife weeds out everyone else. North Korean nepotism can't match that, unless the dear leader has been importing the best eggs money can buy and had a thousands women carrying the kids to term after which 20 years later the best kid was picked and acknowledged him as his offspring and succesor.Originally posted by Thorn View PostI'd even say this particular scenario is unlikely, but going to my worst case scenario hypthosis. After all germany after world war 1 was a broken nation and ended up conquering half the civilized world and very well could have taken everything if they were a bit smarter, under good leadership of a continued brutual North Korean regime, and poor appeasement leadership on everyone else this scenario is plausable but very unlikely at least i hope.Last edited by Heraclitus; March 18, 2011, 18:23.Modern man calls walking more quickly in the same direction down the same road “change.”

That was totally so that he'd have to be killed in an unconventional manner:"Let off some steam, Bennett."Originally posted by Solomwi View PostThat's because Bennett's chain mail attire kicks in straight into the gay recruitment propaganda category. I might move Road Warrior to #2 and put Predator in the three slot, but overall Felch's list is tough to argue with.

The Chinese would throw a huge hissy fit, if they were ever portrayed as bad guys in any movie. It would seriously hurt diplomatic relations and US ambassadors would have to apologize.“As a lifelong member of the Columbia Business School community, I adhere to the principles of truth, integrity, and respect. I will not lie, cheat, steal, or tolerate those who do.”
"Capitalism ho!"

That said, a movie where the Chinese take over America may hit a little too close to home for an American audience.“As a lifelong member of the Columbia Business School community, I adhere to the principles of truth, integrity, and respect. I will not lie, cheat, steal, or tolerate those who do.”

Iran got pretty steamed about the movie 300, I remember. Not only were the Persians the bad guys but they had the most laughably unhistorical depiction of Persians ever.Originally posted by Hauldren Collider View PostThat kind of stuff doesn't ever stop hollywood..."Flutie was better than Kelly, Elway, Esiason and Cunningham." - Ben Kenobi
