I was just wondering, are projectile weapons like rifles, shotguns and machine guns, can penetrate through the Borg Drone sheild? Can they adapt to the "premitive weapon" as Captain Picard references in First Contact? What about a railgun? If they do please inform. I was wanting to know a differe...

What is this book? I can vaguely remember it but my niece is going crazy about it. Her direct synopsis: "it's the one where in this world some people are born with talents and this one girl is born with the talent of being able to kill people really easily so she's taken in by the palace" Ring ...

I couldn't find the game or the name of the game I played in the 2000s and was looking to see if anyone remember it. It wasn't a very popular game, and I believe I played it on PC on an online website for flash games. It has similar art style as "The Dead Case" by Retshark, as it is 2D with the ...

My memory is a bit fuzzy and I caught the film towards the end. But from what i can remember is that two women one seeming in her early 30's and another seeming in her teens (possibly sisters) defeat an entity and in the end while they sit down and talk to each other they suddenly start talking i...

In Edward Willet's novel The Cityborn there is a chapter set in The Whitewater Resort. As I remember it, it is never explicitly stated who built this resort and why. It is never mentioned again after the story moves on. So, am I missing something and it is in fact stated explicitly who built it ...

I first read this around 2015, I think. There were at least three books in the series maybe four. I remember I started getting free copies of the book from the author in exchange for reviews until I gave him a bad review (deserved in my opinion) for getting too formulaic. It started with some sor...

I keep getting the following popup on a question I asked recently: I've already edited my question to clarify why it's not a dupe of the suggested question. I've also selected the "No" option and clicked "Submit" several times, yet it keeps coming back. Is this a bug or intended behavior? If ...

As many might know, it's not uncommon to see references between George Lucas and Steven Spielberg works in each other's films, whether it be Star Wars' R2-D2 & C-3PO hieroglyphs in Indiana Jones: Raiders of the Lost Ark or E.T.'s species turning up for a cameo in the Senate in Star Wars: The Phan...

This answer talks at length about the Primes, and Optimus being a Prime because he's descended from the Primes, and that Optimus and Megatron while not "genetically" related consider each other to be "brothers" due to their longstanded relationship.

I'm having great difficulty understanding the basic plot points of S2E10 Ninety-Seven of Lost in Space. Since ships can follow others through the rift for at least eighteen minutes, why are 97 children put on a single Jupiter, rather than arranging for Jupiters to enter the Rift at the same tim...

The main story of Harry Potter is set in the '90s. Throughout the books we learn that witches and wizards often disregard muggle inventions and are rarely interested in them. However, recently there have been great leaps in tech and AI, and there are no signs of stopping. A lot of the job...

I have a recollection of a relatively short (20 pages?) comic I read somewhere in the mid-2000s, 2005 to 2008 most likely. It was in a magasine, in color, probably mainly aimed at children/teenage boys. The magasine was published in France, but given the plot and general feeling, it's possible th...
