During the entire length if the Clone Wars TV series, I so not recall orbital bombardment ever being used as a strategy to help soften enemy defenses prior to attack. I get that in some cases, bombarding the planet from orbit would devistate the native population (like the campaigns on Ryloth). ...

According to my officially licenced Star Wars calendar, of the thirty X-wing and Y-wing pilots that participated in the Battle of Yavin, three returned. We know that Luke and Wedge were two of the survivors, but who (if the calendar is actually accurate) was the third? Note that it couldn't ...

In Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol 2, What is the back story of the walls?

Looking for a show about a group of three kids/teens who, using cards to change into monsters, fight and recover relics. I believe there are two or three other groups of three also trying to get the relics. In the main group there are two boys and a girl. The boys were both white, one is from a f...

I don't understand Why spider man doesn't look like adult in Captain America Civil War 2016 movie? Is it something to do with timeline or what?

In the Story, this woman is trying to be chosen for a task, but there is a group of people working against her. She was at a ball or party and took one sip of wine or champagne and then left, she was arrested shortly after leaving, it was obviously a ploy to stop her from this the task.

In the movies for example we see Darth Maul Force push Obi-Wan Kenobi, we see Yoda Force push Palpatine, and we see Palpatine us Force lightning most of the time. So if Force users have these powers why do they fight each other with a weapon AKA the lightsaber, why can't they just Force push eac...

I checked Google and Picard's age was apparently somewhere around 59 at S1E1 and 74 at the end of the series according to a Trek Wiki. When I looked up Riker's age absolutely nothing came up!

The side engines seem to be regular atmospheric jet engines (at least they have that sort of intake), but is there any statement in any of the side material (RPG, comics, etc.) what the main "firefly tail" engine is? I know the Firefly verse ships aren't FTL, but is it a fusion drive? A nuclear...

In the earlier films it is said that Jack bartered for the compass from Tia Dalma. However, in the newest film during Salazar's flashback it shows that the captain of his ship is wounded and hands the compass to Jack. So how did Jack get his compass and why does this feel like a discrepancy in t...

During the reign of the Empire (episodes III-VI) it's conceivable that the lightsabers of dead Jedi survived even if their owners did not. Say a weapon smuggler were to be stopped at a checkpoint by the Empire in possession of a lightsaber, and it was clear that the smuggler was no Jedi. Would po...

I read this book in 2007, it was written in English. The story revolves around a man who has been cursed (I think) to have a demon follow him. The demon is normally invisible and the man is the only person who can see the demon. When the demon feeds or kills people he changes shape to a huge cr...

Searching the movie where "Big Daddy who's watching you" was a big (huge) funny and sad brain like a cube - natural AI. Maybe you know this movie? Some facts I remember: secret agency invites psychotherapist/psychologist to help their AI the brain ia a huge funny and sad brain psychologist i...

We see at the end of "Oxygen" that Couldn't he have just used regeneration energy to heal himself? He had done so on other occasions, to heal others (River for example). Also in the last episode (Lie of the Land) he So, is this just an inconsistency?

I read this book about 10 years ago, in French, but I don't know if it was a translation or the original language. The story takes place in a big city, where each district is painted in a different colour. And the colour depend of the wealth of the people living in it. For example, the poorest p...

I'm not asking about how they created the J.A.R.V.I.S. voice or the CGI, I'm trying to know how they created the digital effects in all the J.A.R.V.I.S. and computer scenes.

I read this book maybe 8-10 years ago, and it was in the well-worn sci-fi section of my library so I'd put it in the 80's-early 90's. It was in English and I feel like I remember a giant stingray(?) on the cover? All I can remember about the plot is that a human was reborn as one of the space s...

I read this book in the 70's when I was 11 years old and now I'm trying to find it again. As I remember it, the plot is somewhat like this: Earth is really polluted and everyone will die. But this organization is secretly selecting people to go into hibernation for a few thousand years until eart...

Okay, first, this question will have spoilers. Now then, in Batman v Superman, we see that WW has a sword - this is a very special sword since it can pierce Kryptonian skin (namely doomsday's skin). This means it's not a normal everyday sword - as that would likely get bent or broken when someo...

When we first meet Mr. Gibbs, he seems to be enlisted in the Royal Navy and terrified of pirates. About a decade later, Captain Jack Sparrow and William Turner find him in Tortuga. He now seems to know Jack quite well, good enough to know what happened with Barbossa and The Black Pearl. He then ...

Especially in the beginning of the first movie, Thor is brash and often petulant. He seeks the glory of king-hood without understanding or accepting the self-sacrifice and responsibility that such a role requires. He is brave, yet selfish. My question is Why is Thor worthy? I would think that s...

In my early years, I read a book about a orphan boy with strange coloured eyes found on a off-planet world and raised, for some reason, I keep thinking his name is Fix although this may be incorrect. He be-friends/bonds with a small dragon (Dragon pixie?) type character whilst growing up. As th...

In the Suicide Squad movie, what exactly are Harley Quinn's superpowers? There is a scene in which she is immersed in a liquid by The Joker but it's not clear what transformation if any occurs there. Or is she "merely" a Peak Human?

I was having a conversation with some coworkers about how Andalites eat using their feet. Someone said that eventually they would run out of food due to all of the nutrition having been absorbed. Basically, the soil would no longer produce vegetation. I countered that eventually, all of thos...

I've been looking for an anthology which my older brother lost back in the 70's.. the only stories which I can clearly remember it it were 'Who Goes There?' and "Nerves." If I'm not mistaken Robert Schekley's marvelous short story "Specialist," one of my all time favorites, was also featured. ...

many years ago I read a book about grad students who time travel - sort of - by inhabiting the minds of people in the past. If I remember correctly, there are scenes involving either Queen Victoria or Queen Elizabeth the 1st, and Joan of Arc. Also, one of the grad students is dating a guy who tur...
