At least Hitler had Speer who used classical designs to make Berlin look pretty, but no mention of using Vibranium or materials that depart from the laws of Physics.

The Opera house was very groundbreaking and it almost failed to be finished due to the problems they had making it work.

I think Sarah Hanson-Young would vote for building the city once we find the elements required.

I remember when "War of the worlds" was broadcast lots of people were panicking madly.

Wakanda is real: it's called Liberia, and it is a hellhole.

No laughing matter; average income in Liberia is a quarter of what Blacks get in the USA. The plan to create a paradise for ex-slaves instead created hell.

I wrote to my Local member ,Stephen Jones and asked him Terry Gilliam was writing policy for the government. He hasn't answered me yet. That was in relation to the methane issue with livestock.

I think we should ask the same question of CNN. Monty Python was prescient and prophetic.

I remember reading that people became depressed when they knew that Avatar’s Pandora was not real and could not go there. What a bunch of whack jobs... most of the planet obviously wanted to kill you.

No wonder Zuckerberg is creating a “meta” universe for all these nincompoops to hang out. You can create your own perfect world, with a perfect partner, and remain a child forever.

Now where is my copy of Peter Pan? Hmmm...

I’m not familiar with Black Panther or Wakanda but after a quick catch up my first thoughts were, now that sounds very much like a UN plan and I wonder who would own all the farming land outside the city?

Perhaps a fictitious Gates and his band of elites?

I think our own Fred Flinstone ( Bowen), would prefer we all live like the people of Bedrock.

Incredible quote from Chakrabarti’s book”and the moment you leave the city you’re in farmland. And there’s this connection between rural life and urban life.” That’s profound!!

I’m starting my book now, ‘when you leave the city-centre, you’re in suburbia.’ James it will be a new thought for so many. A best-seller I hope.
