Obviously, it's a crime to kill your own kind. Louis did kill a vampire (one of those who appeared to be nothing more than mindless corpses) when they traveled throughout eastern Europe. So why wasn't he punished by death too?

In the Harry Potter series, there is a lot of talk about the curriculum at Hogwarts but they never talk about learning math, Muggle history, advanced reading/writing, etc. Are we to believe they are learning these as well but they are just less interesting as topics for a book/movie? Or do magi...

At the beginning of Avengers: Endgame, there was exposition dialog explaining the rules of time travel this movie was working under.

In the series "Timeless" it is stated several times that "bad things happen" when you travel to a past in your own life span. So it is avoided. If I remember correctly Rufus explains it in the very first episode. Because he is one of the inventors of the time machine, he should know. And I see no...
