I was just looking up “Soylent Green” to see if it had been invented yet and I found out that in this timeline they actually made a movie out of it starring Charlton Heston.
Now if that doesn’t just beat all.
No matter how much I think I may have gotten used to this time/space rift thing invariably something like this comes along and throws me for a loop.
In the world I remember Charlton Heston starred in a movie about vicious primates who had taken over the planet in the future.
It was called “Planet of the Republicans”.
He also played Rameses in “The Ten Commandments”.
He was a big laser-gun* nut, and he actually died from an accidental self-inflicted laser-gunshot wound. He apparently was so old and senile that he forgot to set the safety.
They buried him with that laser-gun because nobody wanted to pry it out of his cold dead hands.
*I just found out you don’t even have laser guns in this timeline. This timeline sucks.
