Every dream-maker in the movie, Inception, uses a totem to tell if they are in a dream or the real world. The totem is a small object they carry with them and is supposed to have certain properties (Cobb's top always spins, Arthur's loaded die always lands on right number, etc...) that makes it e...
Looking for a story which I read in the 2010s - it felt fairly recent, probably that decade.
It starts off in an underwater station on a mostly unpopulated water planet. There are only hints at most of any life on the planet but it is described beautifully. A man and woman are setting off on a...
In Westworld S01E04, there's a scene in the control room where a staff member tells Ashley Stubbs (head of security) that Dolores is off her loop.
STAFF: We've got a host making a pretty big deviation from her loop.
ASHLEY: Which one?
STAFF: The rancher's daughter from Sweetwater.

Chris changes shape to fit into each realm. The guards follow her each time. She later finds she is a clone of the scientist Christine, who went through a double ring.
I'll add a rough coordinate grid drawn on top of the image so it's easier to name which parts of the image we're talking about. (There's so many objects and characters in this image and it's hard to tell which ones are significant that I don't dare to number them individually: I'd surely leave s...
In The Matrix Revolutions, Agent Smith and the Oracle finally meet. Before he assimilates her, they have this conversation:
ORACLE: You are a bastard.
SMITH: You would know, Mom.
But earlier in the scene, Smith says the following:
The great and powerful Oracle. We meet at last.

Do you know or can you create a list of all known magics?

(please add to this list)
1. Magic with words (see Eragon)
2. Magic with thoughts (see Eragon)
3. Magic with signs (see Kane Chronics)
4. ...

I'm trying to find the name of a science-fiction book I read at least 20 years ago (late 1990s), though it was most likely a second hand book so I can't say how much older than that it might be. I can only remember a few details though some are quite specific:
It was mostly (possibly completely...
Little maneuvering around blackhole took Cooper 51 earth years and time on water planet took 23 earth years.
So, after almost 90 years Cooper reached inside the black hole. When he was transmitting Morse code to Murph she was looking pretty young. How is this possible?
Explain.
My question is What happened to Teferi's second staff? (and is the crystal in it Memory Crystal?)
To clarify my question I will be using some card art. However, the answer to this question likely lies in the lore of MtG rather than the art.
Teferi is/was/is a planeswalker that has been featur...
Star Wars prequel trilogy introduced The Galactic Republic and to make it compatible with the original trilogy, Lucas showed how Galactic Empire was established replacing The Galactic Republic.
This thing looks similar to how Roman Empire replaced Roman Republic in 27 BC. Did Lucas ever told tha...
That's probably Linus et Boom (2009), a French-Korean 3D-animated cartoon, known in English as My Giant Friend.
From TvTropes:
When a big red alien named Boom crashes on his balcony, the 12-year-old Linus has to hide him from the Space Development Center (SDC). Thanks to the Dr. K, Linus acq...
