So an animagus basically can turn into an animal at will. There is no such thing as an accidental animagus because of the long process. Becoming a maledictus is strictly through genetics and is a blood curse where one will be permanently changed into an animal. My understanding is that this happe...

Rita Skeeter wrote in her Witch Weekly article (Goblet of Fire, Chapter 27): Miss Granger, a plain but ambitious girl, seems to have a taste for famous wizards that Harry alone cannot satisfy. Since the arrival at Hogwarts of Viktor Krum, Bulgaria Seeker and hero of the last World Quidditch Cup,...

Next door is a school for boys...

During a rewatch of Avengers: Infinity War I noticed Black Widow seemed to be using a staff during the final battle sequence. The design of the staff looks very similar to the asgardian berserker staff discovered by the Agents of SHIELD during episode 1.8 The Well. My question is, is she using...

I don’t remember much but I remember reading it in middle school so I believe it would be in the more advanced part of a childrens section of the library.

Many of the Eternals have names that are very similar to classic mythological characters. This is even called out and explained directly for a couple of them: Thena was the Greek goddess Athena, and to annoy Ikaris, Sprite made up the story of Icarus from Greek mythology who flew to close to the ...

I was talking to a friend about the fact that Makkari is mute and deaf in Eternals. We were throwing theories like "She lost hearing because she runs fast" or "Like humans, Eternals can be born with handicaps, since they are both created by Celestials" (at least in the comics). I can't remember a...

Time travel in the The Tomorrow War has two premises: Time only flows in one direction. It's like a river. The Jumplink placed two rafts on that river thirty years apart. Now, we can jump back and forth between them, but both rafts will always keep moving forward. [Charlie] Have you notice...

There are a few facets to this question: What sign language is shown in the Eternals film (is it actually ASL, BSL, etc)? If it is an actual real-world sign language, are we supposed to infer that the real-world development of the sign language was influenced by the Eternals? Or are we suppose...

We read a chapter from this in grade school, but never the whole novel (or novella or something). Here is all I can remember: There was a character who could prop himself up in mid air. He slept this way one night I am pretty sure there was a character named "Alex" Alex may have been the perso...

I remember I had this demo game about a group of teenagers (maybe 4 or 5) and they could transform themselves into animals. I only played the demo version, so I don't know about others scenarios besides the farm, but I would love to try to find the full version. I was very young when I played thi...

In the “Danger Island” segments of the Banana Splits Club, which were directed by Richard Donner and starring Jan-Michael Vincent, we are introduced to the character of Chongo. Chongo played by Ken Kahana — we learn, is the mute sidekick of marooned merchant mariner Morgan, and who speaks only in...

A comic book probably of European origin from the late 1970s or early 1980s. The symbiote is a man with a small limpet-shaped node onto his cerebral cortex. This node is sentient and communicates with the man telepathically. There were several adventures in the comic, but I only remember the last...

I'm looking for the name/author of a children's book, I read it in the early 1990s. The book was about a child whose uncle comes to stay with him. They go to a creek to capture tadpoles with some of the child's friends (or possibly family). The other children capture a lot of tadpoles in their ja...

I'm looking for a story (novelette, short, etc) I've read in an anthology, about a human running from pursuit who lands in a planet and enters in a cave where something falls on his shoulders and he faints. Upon awakening he discovers he's bonded to an alien, still on his shoulders, that gives hi...
