How long did you spend on Google to find that page? And did you actually read anything it says? Because if you did, then you would know that it...

Terrorists come in, they die. There. Yea-ah, taking at current count 4084 Americans with them. I really shouldn't have to explain this to you (but I will because I don't think you get it), you do realize hopefully that the number of terrorists in the world is not some set number that you can deplet...

I've had it with these motherfucking jumpers on this motherfucking Sphinx!

Jumper was awesome. I think it was Ford who at some point said that he came out of that movie with a real disappointment that he couldn't jump himself - I concur wholehartedly with that sentiment. As far as building a whole film around a single premise (dude finds out he can teleport) go, this has ...

Yes, he was in it previously in the same role. I don't even think his lines have changed.

I'm totally fine with missile-based ABM, as that's obviously a viable technology. That BMD shield could then conceivably also be used to intercept aircraft and satellites - since those are also just stuff flying about in what should be the missile's range. I'm a bit more skeptical about lasers, alth...

I'm totally down with 20xx/no superweapons. Anyway, an attempt at something a bit more interesting than Altreich: Hierarchy of Khybr Mir Hadad Geography Area: 2,766,890 sq km Climate: Temperate (north) to Mediterranean (south) Terrain: Mostly mountainous island chain Most Populous Cities: Mount Zeph...

I mean, look back at OZW. What the hell was wrong with it beyond what Kamin warmongered and weaponmongered and fishmongered? Nothing ever happened, that's what's wrong with it. It was all talk, no action. In my opinion the best bits were when Kamin went ballistic, because that presented an opportun...

EDIT: There was a long-winded reply here filled with an elaborate rebuttal interspersed with all kinds of colourful expletives, but I've deleted it. You know why? Because when it comes right down to it I'm going to have the last word anyway, so I might as well cut this crap short right here and now ...

To be honest, a big problem I had with my own nation was that somewhere along the way I forgot I wanted to be an antagonistic empire, and when I finally remembered we were at the point where it would be a massive breach of character to revert back to the original intent. So I was sorta stuck with a ...

[Maybe California has a Reagan County that existed before Ronald Reagan - maybe in bizzaro OZ World, Reagan's ancestors were Austrian Barons who owned the land back in the day. So when he came into power, it kind of denoted where he comes from.] We could conceivably tie this into SkyHaven, with the...

A thing about "Von" Reagan... "Von" is the part of a German noble title that denotes what bit of countryside you're the count, baron or earl (etc.) of - for example "Ferdinand Graf von Waldstein" would mean that the guy is the Count of Waldstein. So, like, what's the de...

Would it be an idea to start this thing again? And I mean from scratch, possibly with some new nations?

WHAT SAY YOU?!

If I wanted to transfer everything I've ever written for OZ by hand and piece by piece, I'd probably be here 'till Christmas 2010...

Your wish is my command, master... This setup oughta work for ya.

But does he have the everpresent sunshades and burning orange eyes?

Updated the canon timeline with two entries on the space race. I'm focussing on the Soviet side of the race for now, but rest assured that the American part will follow soon enough.

You don't watch much horror, do you? Because right now the only argument you have is a hasty generalization based upon one randomly picked movie from each genre, and that is hardly a scientific approach. Says the man who's not offered a damned thing as far as substantiation of his arguments go. At ...

In terms of character, how do you envision Fung Lao? My initial impression is one of patience, temperance and serenity. Somewhat in the vein of Master Evil or Sakamoto Eiji, but without the cruelty/temper of the latter. He'd definitely be one serene dude. After all, you don't get to be a master of ...

I did admit that torture horror is more popular than it used to be and will probably be remembered as the 2000s equivalent of the 1980s slasher fad, but it's far from all that horror movies today have to offer - not just the occasional Dog Soldiers and The Mist . Um, yeah, fantastic. That's not wha...

... brainwave: the immortal Chinese origami master Fung Lao, whose origami unlocks the secrets of the cosmos. He can fold anything: usually paper, but also dimensions, people, battletanks, and so on. Born in the 1st century A.D. he was one of the greatest masters of his art, allowing him to ultimate...

I wonder where I have heard that before...

I'm in no way or shape a "Michael Bay fan". I loathe Armageddon and Pearl Harbour just as much as the next guy. However, I'm also not enough of an elitist prick to not fess up to the fact that I liked The Rock , Bad Boys and Transformers . As for torture porn not being the currently fashio...
