Dang I’m flag banned
 
12:41 AM
@Stormblessed Why?
Too many declined/disputed?
 
yeah...
How is this not VLQ?
And this is a very suspicious, troll-seeming question so I flagged as RA
I’d think it’d take more to get a flag ban
In the past week I’ve done a lot of flags that were accepted, but only the bad ones are taken into account

Q: Can't figure out the show, it is definitely NOT seaQuest, either one of them

CandiI was hospitalized recently and a show would come on very late at night about a world where everyone lived in underwater ships, I guess land was no longer livable or available? I've searched and searched and all that comes up it's stupid seaQuest. This was much better quality and was filmed much ...

Q: Jean Grey's last act in "Dark Phoenix" and "Days of Future Past"

MöozIn X-Men: Days of Future Past we see that at the end when Logan 'wakes up' he meets Jean Grey (surprised she's alive, but she is nevertheless). This is fine as presumably they've altered the timeline now and the events of X-Men: The Last Stand are nullified. However, we see in X-Men: The Dark Ph...

Q: Is an unfinished bridge a running joke in the original series cast Star Trek movies?

Anthony XUpon re-watching a couple of the Star Trek movies which featured the original series cast, I noticed that in both Star Trek: The Motion Picture, and Star Trek: The Undiscovered Country, Kirk first arrives on the Enterprise bridge to find it unfinished, full of workers struggling noisily to comple...

Q: Why did Mortarion joined Horus in his Heresy?

Q: What does Darth Vader think Obi-Wan's referring to when Obi says "If you strike me down..."

ColdblackiceWhen Obi-Wan and Darth Vader are dueling, Obi-Wan says "If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you can possibly imagine" -- What does Vader think Obi-Wan is referring to? Vader obviously doesn't seem concerned by it, but does he give it any further credence or thought?

Q: Retelling of Adam and Eve story

reschultzedMy dad is trying to find a short story he read in the '80s, possibly in OMNI magazine, which was a retelling of the Adam and Eve story. The story is mostly the same as it appears in the Bible, except that when God discovers that they have eaten from the tree of knowledge, he is not angry, but hap...

Q: PI with red jacket in a parallel dimension

ShadeAround the year 2000, there was an animated series about a private investigator / detective being sucked into a parallel dimension. Of what I remember, he went there through a portal and the world he landed on was mostly desert. IIRC, he was wearing black trousers and shirt and a red jacket and...

Q: Story about 'magic' on the moon where a woman loses her memory when a silver needle is inserted into her head

j4nd3r53nThis is a story I read as a teenager, if I remember correctly, more than 40 years ago and I only remember vague glimpses that I find hard to put into words, so I do realise it may be a very tall order. I didn't entirely understand the story back then, and but I remember enjoying it and now I'd li...

Q: Young Adult Fiction Series with Magic and Powerful Warring Family Clans

One of the books was about a few kids (I think a brother and a sister) from some powerful clan (I think in London) that had to end up escaping other enemy clans around the globe. At one point t...

Q: How does Rogue from the X-Men fly?

RusshiroThis has been a question which has bothered me for some time, as a subset of "various types of flight" in the Marvel comics. Among the X-Men specifically, it's a ubiquitous ability, mostly held by females. But each type of flight has a different logical basis... Storm holds herself aloft on win...

Q: Novel about two princesses in a fantasy world, one falls sick and the other travels to find a cure

RobertoSup'. I'm looking for a story that I read back when I was a child. Around the 2005, maybe? I recall the book seeming pretty old, but it was from a public library, so it could be simply deteriorated by usage. The world is being afflicted with a mysterious sickness that has no cure and no one know...

The boy and conductor went on a journey on the conductor's train to find out where she is and rescue her. Eventually they find her, I think and they managed to convince the evil queen or witch that smiling...

Q: What caused everyone forgetting the Beatles and other things?

StormblessedIn the film Yesterday, there’s a blackout for 12 seconds in which everyone, other than Jack1, forgets about the Beatles, and any evidence of the band existing is removed from the face of the earth. The band Oasis doesn't exist (the implication being that they derived everything from the Beatles) ...

@Stormblessed That's not what VLQ is for, it might be low quality and downvote worthy but it is an answer and not really delete worthy
In fact it even refers to some quotes which if edited in, could make it a decent answer

Finally got around to watching the TV adaptation of Good Omens. Verdict: bloody good.

Having a voiceover narrator was a great way to preserve some of the quirky commentary and keep the story clear.
The cast did not disappoint. OK, I'm a shameless Tennant fan, but I also thought a whole host of minorer characters (Hastur, Anathema, Shadwell, ... pretty much everyone really) were nicely done.
My most laugh-out-loud moments were the list of ice cream flavours (a joke I often repeat to non-Brits IRL), the American Gods easter egg (the very same edition I read!), and the line "I'm the Archangel Fucking Gabriel".
Dunno how it came off to non-book-readers, but as an adaptation I can't really fault it.

Seems to have inspired a bunch of new people to read the book as well.

@TheLethalCarrot well then what is LQP for?
 
Intended to be used for complete gibberish, not something that’s low effort
 
Complete gibberish is not an answer, though.
Which would also be preferable, since it's way clearer than a VLQ flag noone knows what to do with.
 
7:41 PM
Complete gibberish can be flagged as VLQ, NAA, or rude/abusive. VLQ is an attempt to answer but is so low quality that it's impossible for anyone to edit it into shape (nothing to salvage). NAA isn't even an attempt to answer.

Q: Why Does Fan Outcry and Petitions to Bring Back a Cancelled Sci-Fi Shows Never Work?†

Darf NaderAs practically any fan of great Sci-Fi television knows, the more likely you are to fall in love with a show for being smart, well-casted, well-written, well-made, and of course clever, the more likely it will suffer an inauspicious and premature death before the story can arc and conclude. Firef...
