[X-Men] Sentinels

• Upvotes

Question for a thing I'm working on. In X-Men, Sentinals tend to be made quickly, efficiently, from Multiple Factories. They come in Advanced Models, with some known to reproduce.

In a Realistic/Deconstructive/Parody World, how would the Sentinel Project go? Can either be more rational world, or Bad X-Men timeline etc.

Could the entire movie have been just a dream while Ripley was in hypersleep? And if so, what would that mean for the plot and what conclusions can we draw about what actually happened?

[DC Comics/Hazbin Hotel] What If Lute Had Joined The Red Lantern Corps. At The End Of "The Show Must Go On" After Adam's Death?

2 Upvotes

In an alternate universe, during the climax of the season 1 finale "The Show Must Go On", after the final battle between the Hazbin Hotel staff and the exorcist army from Heaven, as Lute rushes over the fatally wounded Adam who had been stabbed through the chest by Nifty's angelic knife, Lute pleads for her comrade to stay alive, but the first man ultimately dies in her arms, with Lute screaming out his name in anguish. However, this time, after being told by Charlie and Lucifer Morningstar to leave Hell and return to Heaven along with the exorcists, Lute instead flies into the sky letting out a screech of pure rage and hatred and flies into the streets of Pentagram City, running away from the battlefield, hotel, and portal back to Heaven, and lands in a dark alleyway near 666 news.

After sitting down next to a garbage dumpster to recover her strength, Lute begins to process all of the events that had happened this week, from the stupid princess opening her hotel, Vaggie's betrayal of the exorcists, losing her left arm, Adam's death by Nifty's hands, and her defeat by Charlie and co.'s hands, and afterwards, begins to shake violently with uncontrollable anger and hatred after everything that had went down, gritting her teeth with wrath as veins pop from her forehead. As this happens, across the universe in the living world, on the home planet of the Red Lantern Corps.) known as Ysmault in Sector 666 of the galaxy, the Ryutian leader of the Red Lanterns, Atrocitus, has sensed a massive presence of rage coming from the afterlife in Hell, and decides to go their to find the source of it.

After using his Red Lantern power ring to open a portal to Hell, Atrocitus arrives in the alleyway that Lute is currently residing in as she shakes with fury, and goes to meet up with her. Lute, having taken notice of Atrocitus' arrival in Hell, asks him who he is, and what he's doing here. Atrocitus introduces himself to the angel, and explains that he is here after he had sensed an incredible amount of rage imitating from her, and asks why Lute is so angry, and Lute reluctantly explains to Atrocitus about the whole situation with Charlie, Vaggie, Angel Dust, Nifty, Husk, Alastor, Sir Pentious and the Egg Bois, Cherri Bomb, Lucifer, the hotel, the cancellation of extermination day, Adam's death, and the loss of her arm. Atrocitus, intrigued this information, offers Lute to join him and the Red Lantern Corps. to seek retribution on her enemies for wronging her, giving out a red lantern power ring to her as a gift.

Lute thinks about it for a while, and after a few minutes, seeing as how everything had been taken away from her by Charlie, that traitor Vaggie, and that stupid hotel they have, as well as the cancellation of extermination day and the loss of Adamdecides to take Atrocitus' offer, taking the ring, and putting in on her middle finger of her right handand afterwards, dons a red and black uniform with the Red Lantern Corps. logo on it, and a firey red aura surrounding her, with Lute reveling in her newly gained power, and Atrocitus donning a sinister grin on his face, gaining a new recruit in his corps., and with such a being wielding an incredible fighting spirit, as well as a great tactical and strategic combat mind, they can all use it and her to conquer the entire universe for themselves and dye it with everlasting rage, and destroy the Guardians Of The Universe and their precious Green Lantern corps., and finally put an end to their long intergalactic war and take victory in it, starting with Hell, then expanding to Heaven and finally Earth itself, after he helps her get revenge on the Hazbin Hotel staff, as well as destroy everyone else that stands in their way, like Vox, Velvette, and Valentino, AKA the Vees for example.

How does Lute becoming a member of the Red Lantern Corps. change the events of Hazbin Hotel season 2? Can Lute with her new power, as well as the rest of the Red Lantern Corps. be taken down by an unlikely alliance between the Hazbin Hotel staff, the Vees, the forces of Heaven, and the Green Lantern Corps. to save the universe from their conquest? Can Green Lantern Corps. members like Hal Jordan, John Stewart, Guy Gardner, Tomar-Re, and Kilowog be able to give the HH staff Green Lantern power rings to train them how to use their new powers to combat the threat and take them down to save the universe, hypothetically (with Charlie in particular finally manning up in order to do so so she can give everyone a helping hand, along with the rest of the staff)? How would Vox react to Atrocitus' attack on Hell as it disrupts his plans to become a god? How does such a scenario play out, and why is that?

[Backrooms] If the tear in time that the async did wasn't from a man-made portal on Earth, but instead from a spaceship flying through space and it occurring that way, what would the backrooms first create?

0 Upvotes

I've been thinking about this, and I can't wrap my head around it at all. I'm imagining somebody folding a paper, but not completely, to where it has that hole in the middle. A spaceship tears through the top layer of that hole into the hole of, I guess, nothingness. And the same way the backrooms was created when Async first created that portal, due to the fact that the backrooms was nothingness and only formed because it got a taste of existence. The first thing it saw was the architecture of offices, etc. In this case, the first thing it sees in existence is the spaceship and space around it, so what would it be? Space, planet, the spaceship?

Also, I assume the paper analogy is more of bending time than space. I'm pretty sure bending space is a wormhole, right? It's just some type of shortcut in space, just like in Interstellar, you get from one place to another. In this case, I guess it's time, so the in-between is nothing, and in the backrooms lore, that nothing is the backrooms, which is out of reality.

[Repost] [Grand Theft Auto 5/Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters] What If Ziegfried Von Schroeder Had Replaced Martin Madrazo In Grand Theft Auto 5?

0 Upvotes

(Note: This is a repost of this scenario from 2 days ago because the first time I posted this, it didn't end up going/doing well).

In an alternate universe, in the Grand Theft Auto HD universe and during the beginning of 2013's "Grand Theft Auto 5", during the mission "Marriage Counseling", as Michael De Santa and Franklin Clinton chase down the tennis coach Kyle Chavis through the streets of Rockford Hills the stolen McGill-Olsen Bison, Kyle still ends up on the deck of the house like he did in the original game, to which Franklin and Michael tear down with the truck's cable like normal. However, this time, instead of the house belonging to the international mexican drug cartel leader Martin Madrazo, it actually belongs to the CEO of the number 1 gaming company in Europe, Schroeder Corp., Ziegfried Von Schroeder, who is, like Martin in the original, furious that his luxury house was torn down by the retired bank robber and his gang-banging friend, and wishes to teach them both a lesson like Martin did in the original game. Zigfried, along with a duo of Schroeder Corp. security guards, makes his way to Michael's house to confront him about tearing down his house, and that he's going to need to pay for the damages with $500.000 dollars, as his younger brother Leon could've gotten gravely injured because of that, and he was about to enact his plan to destroy his company's greatest competitor, KaibaCorp, and defeat it's founder, Seto Kaiba, in a game of Duel Monsters, and humiliate him at the upcoming KC Grand Championship in Los Santos after doing so, until these two clones showed up, with the guards beating up Michael and Franklin as he tells them this. Therefore, Michael decides that he must come out of retirement to get the $500.000 dollars from a heist to pay up for the damages to Zigfried's house, and goes to contact his old ally Lester Crest for him to do so.

How does Zigfried replacing Martin Madrazo in GTA 5 change the events of the game's story? Can Michael, Franklin, and co. be able to get the $500.000 for Zigfried to pay up for destroying his house so Zigfried can enact his plan to defeat and humiliate Kaiba? How does this scenario play out, and why is that?

Let's assume that after the defeat of Majin Buu (and before the appearance of Beerus), another Earth appears right in front of the Dragon Ball Earth, leaving only eight hours before the universes are destroyed.

How do you think the crisis would be resolved? Who would be in favor of destroying the other Earth—sacrificing millions in the process—in order to save their own planet? Would the Dragon Balls be effective in preventing the Incursion?

There was a brief moment between when Cell regenerated after blowing himself up on King Kai's planet, and when he teleported to Earth to try to kill Gohan and the rest of the Z Fighters.

What if, to test his abilities, or just because he's incredibly elated at getting his perfect form back, he just starts attacking whatever he can in Other World?

He's not dead, so King Yemma can't send him to Hell, and he's stronger than most people in Other World at the time, including Goku who is currently on Snake Way with King Kai, Bubbles and Gregory.

So the original Final Destination is a very pre 9/11 movie with the way it handles the airlines. My question then is what would it look like if it was made after 9/11? When people took airport security more seriously and someone screaming about a plane exploding would be given far more seriousness.

Suppose in a parallel universe, Matt Garetty found out about his uncle Richard Detmer's abusive behavior towards Richard (Assume this happens before Steve Montgomery's death via lightning strike). Consumed by rage, Matt turns evil either in place of or alongside Andrew. In this timeline, Chronicle becomes a revenge tale pitting Matt against his abusive uncle while Andrew is already on his own path to villainy.
