Okay, so, at the end of The Hunger Games: Mockingjay, it says, when Katniss and Peeta were making that book with pictures of their dead family and friends, “Pictures of Finnick and Annie’s newborn son”. When I read this, I was like “WHAAAAAAAA.” Plz help me.
In the last episode of GOT in season 8, John Snow killed Daenerys, but her army of the unsullied just poisoned him, it does not make sense to me. Does it make sense to you also?
In the final battle, Scarlet Witch pinned Thanos, when he told Corvus Glaive to activate "Rain Fire", which seemed open fire like a Gatling guns and nearly injured all parties fighting.
However it quickly shifts and started firing towards the clouds where Captain Marvel was emerging from.
I was ...
@Jenayah morning! Re 3 strikes, not literally but something like not loosing points on first few questions? Just an idea, I have lots of the and usually terrible!
In the final battle of Endgame, there was one group of characters that seemed to get battle-ready super quickly. I'm talking, of course, about
These characters had no idea that the time heist was happening, let alone that it was going to culminate in a classic "Avengers vs. Large Army" battle ...
Ok. Reason for asking is my question about Ghostbusters arcade games, the addition would be 'is the term video game American?' off topic to be its own and would just be for fun
Has a look at the comments between user1411 and myself if you have 2 mins
FWIW if you click the little arrow next to the message a box pops up and you can "reply to message" saves you pinging someone and saying "RE X I think Y" you can just say "I think Y"
In both the A Song of Ice and Fire and Game of Thrones series we, the viewer and/or reader know that Ned Stark is lying when he claims Jon Snow is his illegitimate son.
Ned also refuses to tell King Robert the name of Jon's mother and allows Jon to be a figure of hate for Catelyn so he is lying...
In S08E05 we learn from Tyrion that apparently Bells mean surrender of a city as well.
If the city surrenders, they will ring the bells and raise the gates.
Please, if you hear them ringing the bells, call off the attack.
But in S02E09, we saw:

@Seamusthedog mmmmh... I dunno. On the one hand, some sites could really use a sandbox, sure. But generally speaking, I think the "no rep loss for new users" is not optimal - some people don't care about it, especially on Stack Overflow, so that may not be enough of a motivation. Instead, it's best to provide the most feedback and advice, especially to new users. In an ideal world that happens swiftly, in real life... I guess that depends a lot on who's reviewing and when.
In Avengers: Endgame, we see this scene in the final battle
Star-Lord is flying horizontally without any rocket to stabilize him as we can see for Iron Man and Iron Patriot in the same picture.
How is it possible? Has Peter Quill got an anti-gravity suit to help him or anything else?
@Alex It was only early afternoon Friday in eastern Australia (and a bit earlier in Japan and Korea) when I posted that, so the time period I was complaining about was mostly no later than Friday morning. That's not the weekend yet unless someone is taking Friday off...
(And apologies to the kiwis I know; not pretending you don't exist.)
I recently picked up a copy of Damon Knight's The World and Thorinn, which I vaguely recall reading when I was younger. At the end of the book, some things are explained, such as that
What I don't completely get, is what are the other races that Thorinn encounters? Are they aliens that had bee...
The Nipponese, fearing imminent defeat, bury most of their gold in a mountain in the Philippines. Presumably, they do it to prevent the Allies from getting hold of it.
What was their plan for recovering it? Why didn't they? There must have been someone at the Nipponese government who knew the l...
@Alex I just realized that Monday is a holiday in both the U.K. (Bank holiday) and the U.S. (Memorial day). So of course things are quiet here today, a lot of people are probably taking Friday off too.
This came up on another question, where in the Game Of Thrones books, The Unsullied have all of their genitalia removed, not just the penis.
"In Yunkai and Meereen, eunuchs are often made by removing a boy's testicles, but leaving the penis. Such a creature is infertile, yet often still capab...
@Seamusthedog oh! Sorry to have been intimidating, then. Don't hesitate to ping me in chat/comments when I am, I try my best not to turn people off, but there's always room for improvement. Feel completely free to tell me if I'm overstepping a boundary :)
On a side note, your question about video game terminology might be on-topic on Arqade. They have a terminology tag and a gaming-history tag. I'm not very familiar with this stack, though - out of the people here, I think @TheLethalCarrot and @Stormblessed are more familiar with it
At the end of the movie main-Steve lives a normal life with Peggy in an alternate timeline. He doesn't take his shield with him. But after he returns, he brings an unbroken shield. How is that possible without alternate-Steve knowing?
@Jenayah I don't think he meant that you (collectively or personally) had a frightening or threatening effect (literally "intimidating") as much as just that the presence of people with a pile of evidence of their knowledge can give someone a bit of a case of stage fright when speaking up. (I'm not using scare-quotes, but that bit about "evidence of knowledge" should not be taken literally.)
@Jenayah @DavidW sorry to upset, let me clarify. I have a few 100 DVD, BluRay and VHS etc and you guys have the Library of Alexandria, the Jedi archives and the Oracle of Delphi!!! It's a compliment
@Seamusthedog Sadly I don't have the Library of Alexandria and the Jedi Archives. I wish I had. I just complained about how hard it is to get books published abroad from libraries here, because the libraries barely even have the money necessary to keep its existing collection, and book prices abroad are expensive.
@amflare Since you're pingable here, do you mind explaining the rejected edit replacing the timecube.com URL?
The user who proposed the edit is correct; that seems to be owned by bet365.com now. I'd understand removing the link entirely, but leaving a spam link seems wrong.
Did the Unsnap in Avengers: Endgame put everyone back to the place they were when they were Snapped?
Dr. Strange and Peter Parker were on Titan when they were Snapped, so did Dr. Strange create a portal all the way from Titan to Earth?
Or did Banner include putting people back where they "bel...

@Adamant Because she had nobody left willing to stand up and support her. Everyone near her was running to be away from the implosion of her leadership.
She wanted to try get a 4th vote on essentially the same Brexit bill that has been rejected 3 times previously, and not even her own cabinet thought that was a good idea.
@Adamant Intra-party politics are even more abstruse than normal parliamentary politics, but the tea leaves suggest that nobody wanted to be publicly the leader of that when she could be taken down with a whisper campaign.
@DavidW Because at face value it looked like a poor edit to an inferior source and was made by an anonymous user. So it fell victim to the heuristics at play.
In the post-credits scene of Ant-Man and the Wasp,
It's unknown whether Ghost was snapped as well. If she did, we know from Avengers: Endgame that
But if she did survive the snap,
Has anyone from Marvel (Kevin Feige or other) commented on her status? I did find this interview, but the ac...
When 2014 Thanos comes to the future and destroys the Avengers HQ, Thor, Iron Man and Captain America decide to confront him.
Did they know this Thanos was not the one they had fought before? No one seems to be surprised he's alive, nor are there any comments about him being from the past.
So, ...
@Valorum how the heck are you able to record a close vote? When I load the dialog, the final "Vote to close" button stays greyed out, telling me the thing needs an upvoted answer. (and I won't upvote it just for the sake of being able to close) — Jenayah9 mins ago
I think someone DVed the anwer there after Valorum cast his comment.
What are the rules on whether or not a user can review a post? For example scifi.stackexchange.com/a/213243/101407 is in the VLQ queue; I didn't review it, and I didn't flag it, but I still can't vote on it.
(This may or may not resemble @Jenayah's question. :)
Viewing specific vote counts (e.g. +14/-2 instead of +12) is a privilege available only at 1,000 rep. Why does this only become available to users at this point?
When Scott electrifies the haul of the "Galileo" a piece of equipment is partially visible that looks like a circular chart recorder with pneumatic output. What would a 23rd century Class F shuttle need with a piece of 1960s technology?
In The Flash, why do they have to bring back Reverse Flash all the time to show he is a perfect villain?
And why is Flash also scared of Reverse Flash although both were speedsters?
What is up with the errors in geography?
When "Transformer: Revenge of the Fallen" starts, we see Egypt 17,000 B.C. The Transformers, who are not divided as Autobots and Decepticons yet, are building a huge machine which later has a pyramid build on it. In the background we see mountains, a lot ...
@Adamant They couldn't kick her out because they already had a vote of no confidence in her (which she won) and their rules state they can only have one a year.
While there is nothing involving Sci-Fi or Fantasy in this scene, I am Sure I read it in a Sci-Fi/Fantasy book. Probably written since 2000.

I don’t remember details but I remember that a bird was injured and a girl (I think that she was poor) saved the bird and in exchange the bird gave her a lot of things.

The protagonist is living in a sunny villa on a hill. All (or almost all) other people have voluntarily "beamed up" to a supposedly better place, but he's hesitating about whether to follow them. He boards a self-piloting boat that takes him to the place where people are "beamed up" - a blasted l...

Why did the avengers close the windows before Hulk's snap?
I don't remember what was the reason
