In Star Wars movies, in almost every episode, people who are familiar with the power of force and the fact that people strong with force can become aware of the presence of a person, will usually go to a place and end up alerting that one bad guy that he/she was there which can result in death of...
In the TV series The Flash Season 4 episode 22, they show that Killer Frost was there within Caitlin Snow since childhood. That means Killer Frost did not get her powers because of the particle accelerator explosion and the powers were naturally inside her, but before flashpoint there were no sig...

After all, they HAD to fall in love, or her plan would go kablooey. Also, when Harold says “You can’t force someone to fall in love,” Fortuna says “I beg to differ. I do it all the time.”
Evangelion Units are pretty impressive in what they are capable of, and can be a game changer in the world of Angels trying to end the world one attack after the other, but they are greatly flawed. One of the biggest flaws, in my opinion, is the gratuitous harm inflicted to the pilot should the E...
Mentioned for the first time in The Time Warrior TV story (season 11), it would seem that Rutans aren't as popular as their archenemies the Sontarans. In Lance Parkin novel "Infinity Doctors", the Doctor had a conversation with a Rutan but I ask how many times (within or apart from the Canon) the...

We currently have 18 questions tagged [water]. Going through these, I fail to see the value of the tag. No-one is following the tag and I would be surprised if we had any "water experts" within the context of SF & Fantasy.
This tag is irrelevant and may lead to other similarly irrelevant ...
I am a high school Chemistry teacher. This morning, while my back was turned to write on the board, one of my students (age 17) slipped a pill into my coffee mug. This is a thermos-style mug that has a screw-on lid with a small opening; it was obviously a deliberate act).
About 30 minutes later...

Why did Wednesday tell Shadow to toss the cell phone when "Cell Phones" was on his shopping list?
Why didn't he note that to Wednesday?
In Doctor Who "The Tsuranga Conundrum" what are they looking for on the junkyard planet? Did I miss where they said what they were looking for? It seemed important as all of them were looking for it.
I recently started listening to audiobooks and my choice in this case was the harry potter series. I had a thought yesterday when lying in bed listening.
In the Thor movies, it is mentioned that Thor's hammer was used as a focusing point for his powers. That's why he could still use his lightni...
I am looking for the name of a kids animated space movie from the 70's or 80s.
I vaguely remember the people or one species thought the other cteature/ species was bad. The bad "creatures" looked like a beetle type thing that had many round glass spheres like eyes and tentacles.
By the end the...

I was recently reminded that the same actor, Diana Muldaur, played blind human telepath Miranda Jones in TOS and Doctor Pulaski in TNG. Majel Barrett Roddenberry played Nurse Chapel in TOS and Lwaxana Troi (Counsellor Deanna Troi's mother) in TNG.
I'm well aware that TOS actors Leonard Nimoy, J...
In the end of Half-Blood Prince Harry explains to Ginny why they can't be together anymore:
"Voldemort uses people his enemies are close to. He's already used you
as bait once, and that was just because you're my best friend's
sister. Think how much danger you'll be in if we keep this up....
Unsure. Book mentions that it's essential to have a clear mental picture of the location. It's possible that a place in a memory is unfamiliar but it's image is exceedingly clear so in theory the wizard/witch should be able to apparate/portkey there.
I am trying to remember the title and find a collection, by identifying short stories that were in it - this one was a short story involving a young lady, a nurse or aide in an old folks home. Her boyfriend's name was Donald, and she was looking forward to seeing him after work.
She was working...
