Q: Why did Gandalf not have the Eagles simply transport Frodo almost straight to Mount Doom and drop the ring in there?

Säcksta-BaggerWhile thinking about "holes" in the wonderful, epic The Lord of the Rings story, I had a thought: Why did they go through all this trouble of very slowly sneaking around with a whole fellowship, when they could have simply had Gandalf call for his Eagle friends and have them transport Frodo, carr...

Q: How actually did Violet get a golden ticket in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory?

TimothyIt is clear the different creative ideas for how Agustus Gloop, Veruca salt, and Mike TV got them. How the heck did Violet Bauleguard get hers? Maybe they couldn't think of enough ideas so they did it this way. Maybe she got a lot of money from being so skilled that she got a lot of records and t...

@SQB I don't know, but SciFi closed it, and I think it would be on topic there, it's only Lit where I thought it would probably not be on topic. Plus even if it's on topic it's not clear whether it's worth to actually repost, as opposed to leaving it on Lit closed but undeleted, or leaving it on SciFi closed but undeleted.

Earlier in the movie, his CEO told him that Bane stole all of his wealth with his fingerprint at the Stock market. Even though they would eventually be able to prove there was a scheme...

Q: What did Tolkien mean by this quote?

Edvardo SantianoI'm very confused by this quote, found on: http://www.sean-crist.com/personal/pages/eagles/index.html "The Eagles are a dangerous 'machine'. I have used them sparingly, and that is the absolute limit of their credibility or usefulness. The alighting of a Great Eagle of the Misty Mountains in the...

Q: Who plays Agent Sam Chaney in this X Files episode?

jared.nesbitThe episode is called Aubrey, and you only see Agent Sam Chaney for two very brief scenes. Once as a picture on a report Scully holds near the camera, and once in a flashback B.J. Morrow has. He looks like actor Jeffrey Combs to me, but its not listed in his filmography, and the actor for Sam Cha...

Q: Where does Argus Filch eat his meals?

creative-usernameIn the books or films I haven't yet seen any examples of where Filch eats. His office is briefly mentioned in Chamber of Secrets but the description is lacking. It contains a desk and filing cabinets. There is also mention of him wearing his "moldy tailcoats" for the special events in Goblet of F...

A: What are the limits of Energy-bending?

AncientSwordRageThis is an incredibly difficult bending style to master, and in fact very dangerous. The capabilities of Energybending are not well understood; what is known is that bending a person's life energy can impart them with knowledge instantly or remove one's bending completely. Aang energybend...

@NordineLotfi no but do carry on
 
@AncientSwordRage basically i noticed scene/frame switch which don't match. eg: pulling keys out of pocket even though said character never was seen acquiring said keys (not really sure, need to rewatch as it happened in the middle of the movie), or even switching frame from a scene where said character is locked up, to then running in a hallway...
for the latter one, I'm 100% sure this happened
 
@NordineLotfi that's worth a question on main then... See if you can find screen shots to back up your question

Q: Time travel book involving an agency that fixes the past, which is largely meddled with by strawman liberals

FuzzyBootsI read this somewhere in the last two years (2019-2020) as a Kindle EBook. I did not finish it, as the book ceased to interest me for reasons I'll expand on later, but recently it's been poking at the edges of my mind. The protagonist engages in a form of sex tourism involving traveling to a "bub...
