This movie is about a nuclear accident in a french nuclear power plant. How would Europe and the rest of the world react? What are the consequences for France?

Look, not to bring up politics but why has there been a flood of Anti-Atomic media recently?

Every single cartoon or movie seems to have an anti Nuclear message like it's fuckin' 1986 all over again. ,,Atom is bad, as opposed to GLORIOUS Cancer giving coal or AMAZING Wind Turbines that need 800 bilion square miles of land to power up a single battery"

Trying to ride the Chernobyl TV series success coat tails is my guess.

Consider the music video for "Positions" by Ariana Grande, features her in 2020, clearly as President of the United States, with an almost all female Cabinet:


Prince in "Could You Be The Most Beautiful Girl in the World" has an African-American woman as 43rd U.S. President :

From watching this I realised that Threads is set in 1983 not 1984 like I always supposed since that was when it came out, and when I first saw it.

My joint favourite nuclear war film, along with the more child friendly War Games. Now War Games is another that implies a interesting post film ATL.

Soviet Ambassador: YOU LET WHAT RUN YOUR NUCLEAR ARSENAL!

The Soviets installed Dead Hand they have no moral higher ground to bitch from (not that that would stop them but still America would just declassify the fact that they did that)

American Ambassador: We know about Dead Hand.

Soviet Ambassador: That's a decadent Western lie.

It would be glorious to behold.

Last Man on Earth (FOX-TV) actually has a alternate timeline, wherein the entire Trump presidential Cabinet bets wiped out infecting Pence to Betsy Devos before 2021:

Apart from the fact so many people in this world seem to make dumb decisions there are so many implications for genetic engineering, politics, etc

- Woo should be on trial as as war criminal for creating all the dinosaur esp the hybrids
- After the Dinos get loose after Fallen Kingdom anyone can get their hands on Dino DNA, so things are even more screwed
- Why where the kids not evacuated when the storm was detected in the first movie- storms are well observed well in advance
- Could Dennis Nendry not simply wait for the storm and his escape route to be secure before turning off all the power?
- Or indeed not steal the samples until he was about to go on vacation or something?
- Why did the US or Costa Rica not kill all the Dinos after the 2nd movie?
- After Fallen Kingdom why did the US not round up/kill all the loose dinos?
- If you own the IP for the DNA and can make dinos why are you trying to auction them off?
- What happened to the Siberian Park?
- Jurassic World was fine for 10 years, and though ticket sales was going down why did they not open another park during that time somewhere else?
- Ticket sales when up after JWorld announced a new Dino, great but why make such an aggressive predator?
- Costa Rica seems very passive about what is occurring on an leased island it owns
- Kill all crops except those provided by the Corp? Really? Fuck the world’s entire eco-system, cos of cross pollination and animal dependencies to make a buck when you can clone animals/crops/dinosaurs?

This entire series gets dumber as it goes on. So many retcons and lore inserts

The South Korean 2010's TV Drama/Historical Series Kim Soo Ro ( that was centered about the legendary founder of the Gaya Kingdom in ancient Korea) that (according with the legendary korean oral tradition depicted there) married with the Princess Surinetra (Heo Hwang-ok), a Tamilian princess! The same one that later would be known as the Empress Boju.
Which, IMO, would imply a rather different Historical development of the Korean kingdoms and their links with the rest of Asia and particularly with the India. With an earlier and deeper inter Asiatic/Far Eastern trade, religious (Buddhism?), political contacts and links between Korean peninsula, the India and the just founded Sila Kingdom and Sri Lankans Tamil kingdoms...
