Q: Dr. Strangelove quote: Elmo and Charlie

2:43 AM

1

In one of the opening scenes of Dr. Strangelove general Turgidson says to colonel Puntridge on the phone: You better give Elmo and Charlie a blast, and bump everything up to Condition Red and stand by the blower. What does he actually mean by this sentence? Is Elmo the character from 'Ses...

Q: Why is the break-even point for movies usually twice the budget?

4:31 AM

3

The break-even point is supposed to be where the cost and revenue are roughly equal so as to avoid loss, hence a movie would break even when it has made as about the same money as its production (and advertising) budget. I've came across this numerous times while reading the Reception section of ...

production

I wanted to ask question about break even. It is already asked now.

A: Missing publicist badge?

Thanks for reporting this. The query was broken and has been for a little while. It should now be fixed along with some improvements to it. The original queries the sharing badges, Announcer, Booster and Publicist, were supposed to count the total number of unique IP Addresses that visited from ...

@ankii Thanos XD

@VerNicksaysReinstateMonica it's 2/4 now, lets see

@AnkitSharma Yeah, +1

A: Why did the goblet spit Harry's name out in the first place?

39

The Goblet can only spit the fourth candidate if it is bewitched. It takes a strong charm to do this. MAD-EYE: The hell he is. The goblet of fire is an exceptionally powerful magical object, only an exceptionally powerful conjurer could have hoodwinked it. Magic way beyond the talents of a fo...

@AJ some link for you above ;0

Hey, don't you dare tell something about Putin

:D

6:55 AM

Putin has bare-chested photos on a horse, to show Russia that he's a strongman.

Trump followed and got himself a fake WWE poster edited .

@VerNicksaysReinstateMonica Thanks

7:19 AM

@VerNicksaysReinstateMonica because someone DVted before teh trigger can hit :(

I am still counting on @AJ or @Memor-X to look at my Hinduism answer. :/

I got a Cosmic Brain hat on Meta SE. Not the Shiver me Timbers hat yet.

@NogShine what answer is this?

A: Who killed Ahiravan or Mahiravan?

5

The story of Airavan and Mahiravan abducting Rama and Lakshmana is found in Ananda Ramayana. They are two different persons. I have written answer to Who were Ahiravan and Mahiravan? . The source of legend of Airavan and Mahiravan is Ananda Ramayana. It is part of story of Rama which is spread...

@ankii and also his head put on Thanos, at the moment that Thanos looses

which says more bad things about him than "look at Trump as the most bad ass person killing democrats with a snap of his fingers"

A: How does that private prison in The Flash work?

@NogShine stuck in siamilar situation:

3

How does that private prison in The Flash work? It works like any other prison except we skip the judge/jury stuff. It is illegal if it is taken to court but unethical? I don't think so. Barry is such a lawful and moral person; why isn't he concerned when they put people into an estimated 1m² b...

7:33 AM

Shiver me Timbers is difficult. 007 is much more difficult.

007 is easy

Make lot of answers and you will get it

I got ti withotu trying

Comments are the problem.

I have an old question. I will search for its answer and try for 007. Only hope

good luck

@AJ yes

@VerNicksaysReinstateMonica now I see what you meant, thanks to @Memor-X

at least he admitted that he's the bad guy

7:48 AM

Finally... thanks @Memor-X

@ankii who? Thanos or Trump? because i think the latter doesn't actually know what Thanos is/does aside from hype

@NogShine hey I did that ;p are you trying good answer badge ?

@Memor-X both! and yes he's dumb too

yeh, maybe he should look up what Thanos does.....or atleast his fans/staff who make these images because

Thanos: commits genocide, kills children for stones, use of firing squads
WWE Wrestler: fake, choreographed matches, atrocious workers rights, rich guy in charge doesn't care

@Memor-X If that's what he got voted in for, then he's doing great to satisfy those who demanded such a President

@ankii oh yeh, and the next lower level is a Kardashian

or Elmo

7:56 AM

Just hope that those on the margin flip to the other side to throw him out.

And the best part about impeachment is that people would at least look up the reasons, otherwise Fox won't even let them get such news, if Dems were simply ranting on TV

@Memor-X he already got himself Photoshopped over Greta's photo

To become the first Trans President

@ankii you mean the Times cover?

yup

again the face swap.

lol, love to keep the pattern of being in fake times covers

A: Spiderman: Far From Home - Disney or Sony Rights?

Guys please help me earn Merlin

8

Sony Pictures has film rights to the character. Marvel has owned Spider-Man since his inception. They do, and have always, owned Spider-Man. If you’re asking about the film rights specifically, that’s more complicated. Disney owns Marvel. Marvel owns the Spider-Man character. Every ...

@AnkitSharma Thank God

@M.A.R. Once I made my mind to finish it but didn't find all 6 filsm in streaming that time

Q: What happened to Atlantis Tv Show?

9:58 AM

-2

This tv series was really dope and interesting. But the season two finale really made me so expectant for the next episode. Later, I found that the tv show was stopped. So is there any possibility of season 3 release?

production production-mistakes

@AnkitSharma Well, if you ever watch 'em, I find it more helpful to go out of your normal way, watch them, and form your judgment about them regardless of what people on and off the internet say

@M.A.R. I barely care for other's opinion if I like r dislike it

You know how SciFi fans can be . . . As close to football hooligans as book readers can get. "The book is trash" "The movie is trash" "Both are trash" "The world is trash"

@AnkitSharma No, not like that

@M.A.R. lol

@M.A.R. :D

What I mean, try not to read any commentary unless you've finished the six movies and formed your opinion about them

For that reason I won't even get into mine, except a vague "The third LOTR is the best film" I gave up there

10:07 AM

sure, got it

@M.A.R. If I don't like it by any chance I shoudl nto tell @Mithical about it?

@AnkitSharma Well he's just as bad as everyone else, just more eloquent about it

I'm sure he will give you along the lines of "Bah, X is trash"

@M.A.R. anyways I have seen 1st one but felt like it's gopd but not complete. More like a pilot of some show

I'm pretty certain there are parts you're gonna love and parts you're gonna hate, often even in the same movie

So my next plant is to see all trhee in one go

@M.A.R. I know the end and finger eating etc

BRB

10:11 AM

I have seen it so many time in bits and pieces that I don't know which scene I remember form which part. So I want to see all three together which need time and I heard tehre are extended versions too

@AnkitSharma I watched the movies first, and then read the books

Not a reader

OK definitely don't tell that to @Mith

Already have two pending books to read and one belong to my would be father in law

@M.A.R. he knows I guess

Mithical

10:52 AM

@M.A.R. SACRILEGE

@AnkitSharma Two is nothing...

I'm reading four at the moment, three being lessonical references

@Mithical for me it means a lot, last time I took months to decide that I will not read the 11 page and return teh book

Q: Where does Elseworlds fit into Batwoman chronology?

Q: Is there any chronological way to watch Evil Dead franchise?

12:22 PM

I heard that with Evil Dead sequels they change the events of previous films. And I was thinking to catch up with the franchise including the TV series, excluding the contradictory parts. So is there a way to do that? An official statement will be quite helpful too.
