Ozpin being an alien? That's certianly an interesting idea.

I have always thought the series would take a high-sci-fi or high-fantasy turn. It's looking now to be headed more down the fantasy route, but who says it can't be both? Look at Warhammer.

Although it's unlikely, I've always liked the idea that Remnant is a planet settled long ago by a future, spacefaring humanity and has, since then, been somehow cut off from the Terran Alliance/United Earth Government/Imperium of Man/whatever, leading to hundreds or thousands of years of isolation and, eventually, everyone forgetting about Earth and the past. It conflicts with the opening narriation, but so too do the majority of history's civilizations' tales of creation conflict with scientific fact.

That or it's Earth in the far future.
