I saw a documentary or movie about a long time ago, where it delved into the to sort of moral or hypothetical situation about space-time or something about that.
There is this one scene where the scientist (of Asian descent?) creates a portal of a parallel universe, then holds up a gun. Walks u...
In Highlander II: The Quickening, General Katana confronts Connor MacLeod in a chapel. After he reminds him that they can't fight because it's holy ground, he says this:
Ashes to ashes,
dust to dust.
If you don't take it out and
use it, it's going to rust.
What's he talking about? To ...
At the end of The Wizard of Oz (the movie)
However, we have (according to this query) around 10 questions about the movie. Why is this movie on-topic here?
I read a great ww2 submarine book that was a work of fiction but historically accurate. The title may have been something "trader" and at the beginning of ww2 the main character is aboard a banana carrying ship that is torpedoed by a japanese sub, prompting him to join the navy.
I don't speak english but a while ago I read this Drarry fic that I cannot find now. I remember some parts of it, though. The fic is in English.
Harry didn't live with the Dursley family. I can't remember if Harry lives with Severus or Sirius.
I think Draco and Harry were close friends since ...
I really don't know much about this movie anymore, since I've seen it only once as a child more than 30 years ago in the early 80's.
It was black-and-white, probably from the 50's or 60's and although I was really fascinated and considered it as one of the best movies ever made it was probably ...
Is a definitive reason ever given as to what triggered the civil war on Cybertron?
I know Deceptcons are evil and Autobots are good, but what triggered the war to begin with. What is it about the beliefs of the 2 groups that makes them unable to come to some sort of permanent truce.
In the fi...
In the early 70's I read this short story in an antology. A time patrol team must inquire about a railroad in the English countryside. It turns out that a local blacksmith did invent a steam engine and established a transportation service.
In extension to this question about Game f Thrones, we know the map of Westeros and Essos which is in flat style.
Do the west of Westeros and the east of Essos connect?
Or is the map not completed yet?
In the first season of Game of Thrones, we see how much Illyrio is giving Viserys and Daenerys: shelter, food, and above all the priceless dragon eggs given to Dani.
Why is he doing it? What's in it for him?
In the pilot episode of Gotham, Bruce Wayne told James Gordon that he came out of the movie theater with his parents and then he was going to catch a cab before a guy shot his parents.
Given, Wayne were richest and most powerful in the city, why weren't they driving a car (this could have preven...
With the regions, Kingdoms and countries of GRRM's world influence by Britain and Europe are the any regional foods similar to the area in question or just regional foods in general?
e.g. Haggis north of the wall
In S01E03 of Game of Thrones, Maester Aemon mentions to Tyrion that the Night's Watch is growing smaller in numbers, now to less than a thousand.
Since the Night's Watch consists mostly of bastards, criminals, rapists, etc., I'm finding it difficult to believe that these demographics of Westero...
Harry never felt his scar burning nor did he dream of it. So did he?
This question is strictly for the live-action remake only, so the animated version is out of the question,
Anyway, their wiki articles calls the Beast’s parents the King and Queen, but nothing in the film supports that. Mrs Potts simply calls his father “the master’s father.”
We should also tak...
If the Night's Watch was supposed to last thousands of years, and was given land, why not have them raise families in the Gift and send all adult males to guard the wall on a rotation?
Hear me. The ships of Braavos sail as far as the winds blow, to lands strange and wonderful, and when they return their captains fetch queer animals to the Sealord’s menagerie. Such animals as you have never seen, striped horses1, great spotted things with necks as long as stilts2, hairy mouse...
In the mid-1970s I read a feminist book with a premise that was something like:
All men are guilty of raping all women.
I would like to re-read this to see if I am remembering it correctly. I tried searching for the premise, but it did not help me find the book. Maybe I am remembering it ...
In Season 8 Episode 1, when Lyanna Mormont asks for an explanation for why Jon
Jon's answer is:
I had a choice, keep my crown or protect the north. I chose the North.
Is this an accurate statement on his part?
I ask because in Season 7 Episode 6, on their way back from their expedition ...
