The recent LEGO set 75290 Mos Eisley Cantina set includes a pretty sizeable side build of a Jawan junk shop. Here is a picture from the official LEGO promo photos: Does this shop make an appearance in the official movies or lore, or is it an invention of The LEGO Group? It's been a few years sin...

Once upon a time, in the early 2000's, I purchased a VHS tape that had recordings of a live-action TV mystery Mini series. The spoken language and actors are presumably Asian. ( For the longest time I assumed Japanese, but now I am not so sure) The episodes were short, 15 to 20 minutes long each...

In season 2 of "Love, Death and Robots", in the episode "Tall Grass" we can see a passenger of the early twentieth century train having certain... adventures during an unplanned stop. I don't think that his name is ever given, but he is strangely similar to HP Lovecraft (although, HPL rarely pose...

So it starts with a school bus having been transported to a different world. Some students are told by a sage? That they have powers now while some students do not have any powers. The then get attacked by a dragon. The MC however was left behind because they couldn't sense any powers from him bu...

In the sixth episode of The Falcon and The Winter Soldier, The Falcon enters a conference room and someone asks him who he is to which he answers as being Captain America, the guy responds by saying I think Captain America was on the moon, it must be some inside joke or a reference to a published...

I recall a short story, probably 1950s, where a corporation is engaged in the manfacture of humanoid robot servants, but finds its sales dropping off due to a campaign by a hellfire preacher, who maintains that it is immoral to manufacture creatures with no souls. They challenge him to a theologi...

While inside the mind of the Blackstar clone, But later Brainwave admits to Raikou that If so, why would he encounter such a potentially lethal threat inside a construct that should not have contained any?

I read this book about 5 years ago. The story from what I can remember goes like this: The main character is a kid. and his mom reads him a bedtime story about a dead bull with it's eye out (I might be wrong about the specific details). The next day the kid walks to school. he goes into the woo...

The story based in Britain is, as far as I can remember, about a boy who falls asleep on an inflatable tube at sea - while on a family holiday to the beach. He then drifts to a mysterious island whose inhabitants don't know about or come into contact with the outside world; and is adopted by the ...

It happens on a planet inhabited by humanoids. Main character grew up in a society where they don't speak about themselves at all. When they talk they refer to themselves in third person, like "someone thinks", "it could be thought". Speaking about wishes, emotions etc is a tabu. The main charact...

I’m asking, because she called the Big Bad Wolf “some gender confused wolf,” and if so, does she believe that GAY people don’t live happily ever after?

The main character creates a VR game where you can create different worlds, she creates her own world based on a novel she created, then she gets stuck inside unable to leave the game

I remember watching this bizarre movie from which there was a scene where an old lady start stomping down a rat/dog with her umbrella. The movie itself was really weird and bizarre.

I know that Richard Bremmer played Voldemort in Philosopher’s Stone and in flashback scenes in Deathly Hallows Part 2. But his Harry Potter Wiki page identifies him as the voice of Lord Voldemort before his return in Goblet of Fire. So DID he voice Voldemort before he came back? Edit: Never mind,...

One of those weird things that popped into my head. I read a Ranma 1/2 fanfic somewhere in the late 1990s to the early 2000s which had the cast somehow winding up in the "real world" that we live in, where they're fictional characters. Specifically, they showed up nearby a convention center, and ...

I vaguely remember reading in a comic book where Batman said something along the lines of: If I could rescue one person, it would be Wonder Woman. Also, most probably it was followed by a panel showing Wonder Woman captured. The artwork seemed similar to JLA comics(?) Unfortunately, that is all...

A short story I’d like to reread is about the last human, who lives in a solar system where each human is replaced by an android or human robot upon their death. The idea being that the living humans shouldn’t despair that their friends are dead. The androids operate mines (on Pluto?), undersea o...

Hard sci-fi depicts technology according to the known laws of physics. Is there anything similar for comics? I'm particularly interested in Superman-like beings with super strength/durability and speed.

Piggybacking on this question: Book about time portals inside an asteroid in Earth orbit. The answer to that question was Eon by Greg Bear. In that novel an asteroid comes into orbit around Earth. When people travel to it they find that it is much bigger inside than outside. There's a tunnel that...

Or was there some "magical" aspect? The transformation is of course quite remarkable but also, when the main character, pre-transformation, says he wants to be a tennis pro, he is told this would not be possible and I think he decides to become an artist. So perhaps this implies that the the tran...

I'm remembering a scene in a fantasy novel where the main character, possibly a swordsman or warrior type, is travelling somewhere and comes across a woman on the road. Believing herself to be under threat, the woman pulls out a weapon (knife?) and threatens the man saying something like: "Keep b...

Why didn't Delenn use the Energy Transfer Device (from the episode Quality of Mercy) to restore more than 20 years of Jon Sheridan's life after Z'ha'dum? Membari are long-lived to begin with. 20 years from her to supplement the 20 given him by Lorien would have restored him to a normal human life...
