In this universe, a researcher is researching AI. AI are banned (in the galactic community?) because although the technology is not difficult, they always become insane and destructive. So an inspector (might be an alien) visits the researcher and is asking questions when a little girl interrupt...

I find it disturbing the kind of dominance Palpatine is able to put over Anakin. In the scene including Skywalker, who defeats Anakin and is invited to replace him by killing him, Anakin calmly gets up after almost being killed by his son by an order of Palpatine and stands passively at his side,...

In an early scene in The Mummy 2017, So with whom did Ahmanet make her deal?

We established quite a while ago that fanfiction is on-topic. I would therefore expect that people who don't want to see fanfic questions would just ignore the fan-fiction tag and move on. About a week ago, someone asked this story-ID question: Harry Potter Fanfic where Harry is impregnated by...

I was watching Harry Potter but I didn't get that.

The son of a friend wants to read The Witcher books. We both know the game and there are some moments where Geralt collects the Ladies "business cards" and this might not be appropriate for children. Are these moments only implied or graphicly detailed (like in A Song of Ice and Fire)? I also w...

I am currently reading horus heresy where Horus starts being the "Warmaster". But I have been looking for information about who have this title at the moment in the universe of warhammer 40k and I do not find who is. Who must be the title holder in the act of the actual crusade or in its defect i...

... other than the R. Daneel Olivaw and in any of his robot books (not just the Foundation series).

I remember reading a graphic novel around the same time frame Elfquest was published. There was a new experimental ship that was stolen/hijacked, that when it went into FTL space was white and stars were black. About anything else I remember was an Earth officer, relieving a bridge officer for a ...

So the Terminator basically weighs quite a lot, but is covered with organic tissue, which is also significant for him being able to time travel ... ... how was the skin on his feet able to bear his weight?

In "The Fifth Elephant" acting captain Colon (normally known as Sergeant Fred Colon) is obsessed about missing sugar lumps. During the course of the story more and more sugar lumps go missing. I've read the story for the second time and it seems to me that no reason is given in the story itself ...

At the beginning of the Mummy 2017, How did he get jurisdiction? And from whom? I am asking for the back story in the dark universe. Or for some extrapolation based on other dark universe back stories that may have been documented in interviews or fan publications.

In the beginning of the movie, shortly after arriving back aboard the Dark Aster, Korath says to Ronan: We have discovered that [Quill] has an agreement to retrieve the orb for an intermediary known as the Broker. How did Korath know that? We saw literally the entire interaction between h...

I encountered this science fiction novel in the early 90s (1998 at the latest) but I only got to read the first few chapters of the novel and I have gone crazy looking for it ever since. The story starts with a suspenseful dramatic chase in a deserted urban cityscape, deep into the dark night, w...

About three years ago I took one of my clients to the library for an outing and I started reading this book. I've been trying to remember the name of it every since. Please help it's really annoying me, I've googled the heck out of it and can't find it. It's set somewhat in the future, the book...

Darth Sidious approached Dooku shortly after the Battle of Naboo (and death of Qui-Gon Jinn) to sway him to the Dark Side. He became an apprentice to Sidious, which Maul was as well. Did Dooku express his resent or respect to his now ally for killing his former padawan? Did he, say, praise Maul ...
