Given that the Star Trek franchise takes places within the Milky Way, and in particular near the galactic plane, I would expect that the view out the windows would show the Milky Way similar to the way it's seen from Earth: a dense band of stars that form a milky river across the sky. Yet we neve...

This really is a Hail Mary throw, but it’s been bugging me for years. I watched a children’s show in the 1980s which revolved around an alien presence giving advice and other interaction to a small group of children. The alien was represented by several flying discs which took up positions in a ...

In the MCU, it appears like it's fairly lightweight, but then they're both quite strong. Do they experience it like a small sledge, or perhaps a wooden mallet? To others it's immovable, but is that necessarily a function of apparent weight?

I may have read this in an Alfred Hitchcock anthology somewhere in the mid 1990s. An up and coming starlet is about to head off on her honeymoon with her new beau when her ex-husband and former agent shows up, threatening to blackmail her for her more adult entertainment history if she doesn't pa...

It has some good actors in it, John Malkovich and Ron Perlman. I think the plot does not make a huge amount of sense but many scifi/horror movies have this problem. (This is, the mutants want to make more mutants but also happily kill people, so what do they really want?) What I liked was the Ste...

This is a long shot, but does anyone happen to know what this children's book is? I'm not 100% sure about any of the following details, but here they are. A little girl went up to Asgard, the home of the Norse gods, to return the goddess Freya's necklace, or possibly to steal it. I think the lit...

However in doctor strange he gets a call about someone with a spine injury from a prototype suit, I read this was the one from hammer in the second Iron Man yet that was set all before the war in new york. In the time line he hadn't mastered the mystical arts. I am confused haha. Help.

Although Carroll never draws Alice wearing a hat in Alice’s Adventures Underground, in one segment of the story there is mention of such a head covering. This occurs in Chapter 2, when Alice decides that the puppy she came across is too dangerous to play with and so she makes her escape: She se...

In the movie Justice League Dark: Apokolips War when John Constantine rescues Flash from Darkseid's control and makes him sleep. He sees a vision and then exclaims that it was due to Flash creating the Flashpoint that Darkseid was able to attack on Earth. I would like to know that how did Flash h...

Before Alice enters the dream state -and falls to Wonderland - on the bank beside her sister, the reader is told by Carroll that it was a hot day and that Alice thought of the possibility of making a daisy chain: Alice was beginning to get very tired of sitting by her sister on the bank, and of ...

Order 66 was clear: Execute Jedi for their treason against the Republic. But, after receiving Order 66, Rex also ordered his troops to kill Maul. Why? Maul wasn't a Jedi in any way. I had asked a similar question for Ahsoka: Why did Rex want to kill Ahsoka after receiving Order 66? In the case of...

Palpatine's Sith identity was a closely guarded secret. Only few people knew that he was Sidious: Did Grievous know Palpatine was Sidious? Who exactly knew that Chancellor Palpatine was Darth Sidious? So, it was surprising to me when I saw Rex addressing Palpatine Lord Sidious (Earlier, no other ...

In Star Trek: The Undiscovered Country, while Martia the shapeshifter, Kirk and McCoy are escaping, after Martia's treachery is revealed she transforms herself into Kirk. Then when the guards come, they are not sure which Kirk to shoot, and a sort of reverse version of the old "Spot The Impostor"...

In Solo: A Star Wars Story, Han Solo speaks frequently about his desire to return to his home planet of Corellia to be with his special lady. Of course, later In current Disney canon (not Legends), does Solo ever return to Corellia for any reason after escaping it through enlistment in the Imper...

I can only recall two of the stories: One was about this machine that made edible soap and these children were addicted to eating it/ someone was also forcing them to eat the soap. The other was about this girl who turned her boyfriend into a flightless and clawless bird after finding out his fea...

In Star Wars, I find it weird that droids are not speaking the common language, but instead do beep-boops. And what is weird of that is that even then everybody seems to understand perfectly what they are saying. (or at least the protagonists) Is it ever explained why even if droids talk in beep ...

I can't seem to remember its title, but it's an anime about a girl that likes listening to the chiming sounds of different rocks. She meets a boy that gives her his necklace, she goes with some old dude and meet the boy's brother in the other world.. What is this movie?

I've just finished watching season 3 of The CW version of Supergirl (not the 1984 version), and I'm very interested as to how the characters, specifically Purity, apply technique to their fights, rather than just right crosses all of the time. I am particularly interested in the Worldkillers sinc...

In the book Always Coming Home, by Ursula K. Le Guin, the author created the future Kesh language and Aiha alphabet. Does anyone with an anthropological or etymological background and experience with this book have any idea how modern languages would evolve into this? From the back of the book it...

We are learning about dystopian societies in my English 2, and I learned that dystopian societies have government control, meaning the government watches their citizens closely. Also, in dystopian societies there is a loss of individualism. Are these things in Harry Potter? Is there textual evide...

Mr Stabs is a recurring antagonist, only they recur between different TV Series: The character of Mr. Stabs, played by Russell Hunter, is defeated by Tarot in Series 2, returned, again played by Hunter, in a 1975 episode of the horror-themed children's anthology series Shadows in the episode "Du...

The book featured a chapter that listed people like Idi Amin, Pol Pot, Mao Zedong, etc. I’m trying to remember the name of the book, does anyone remember this book?

So I'm trying to find a Sci fi book series from when I was younger (probably about 12 years ago) although the book was already pretty old before I get hold of it (I'd estimate a late 90's / early 2000s publishing date). The cover of the first book was orange and had some black almost circuit boar...
