I read a book years ago 1980's or 90's possibly but the book may have been older where the ultra rich were able to buy or exchange the body parts of other people to enhance themselves. Not necessarily or just organs but muscular arms if theirs were week or flabby, stronger legs, etc. there is mor...

I read a story about a slave working in a mine that was somehow able to either with help/technology or esp to get a ruling member/politician to see and experience his life as a slave/miner. I can't remember anything else about the story/book.

While Rick was interrogating Luba Loft, she manages to call the fake police station and summon a cop who then let Rick use the phone too. He manages to reach the real police station and even talk with Inspector Bryant, but then the call is cut off and further calls to that number fail. How did t...

Is anyone aware of any site/fan database that has listings of audio tracks from commercial sci-fi audio CD's? I am converting some audio CD's to mp3 format to play on my mp3 player and sometimes the track data is missing (for example, chapter listings). Really interested in Dr Who audio books. Fo...

The opening scene of The Dark Knight shows a bank robbery being perpetrated by a gang hired by the Joker. It transpires that they are all supposed to kill each other, with presumably each of them thinking he will be the only one left to split the takings with The Joker, but as they are all wearin...

Chade has always been described as old, even in the first books. I just finished the Tawny Man Series ending with Fool's Fate, and other characters are either growing old and frail I find this hard to believe as these characters were always depicted as much younger than Chade in my opinion. Of...

As this question shows we don't know much about Robb and Jeyne's wedding. However, what is clear is why Robb decided to wed in the first place... "I took her castle and she took my heart." Robb smiled. "The Crag was weakly garrisoned, so we took it by storm one night. Black Walder and the Sm...

I have a question about Marvel comics. When crossovers happen within titles we see that characters from titles which are not necessarily crossed over with appear in them (for example the Avengers and their members appearing in Infinity Gauntlet). The Avengers comics and the comics of individual ...

I remember back in 1st and 2nd edition Warhammer Fluff there was a 5th Chaos God Malal. This God's purpose was to attempt to counteract the works of the other gods, he was smaller, had fewer followers and was no very well known but he acted to try and help anyone who fought the other Chaos Gods. ...

I'm looking for a book in English. It's about werewolves (or shifters). A girl is sort of a werewolf princess (may not be a shifter/werewolf herself), and many werewolves would like to mate with her. I think she's sort of forced — possibly locked-up — to participate. In order for her to pick ...

I remember reading a science fiction short story in the 1980s about two mirror universes, where the same incident is going on at the same time. In one universe, the keyword is Sleep and in the other, it is Aestivate. The story ends with the two beings interchanging their respective universes.

Richard Matheson's brilliant novel I Am Legend takes place between January 1976 and January 1979, with several flashbacks to 1975, when the vampire plague began to spread. Throughout the novel, there are several references to a "war" which, the way I read it, likely happened less than ten years ...

In October 28 epsiode of Dr Who (2018), spiders are lured into a vault. What happened to them after? Was the plan to lock them up and let them die of hunger or cannibalize each other? Wikipedia article states: To kill them humanely, the group lure the offspring into a panic room.. Was ther...

I only saw the beginning of this on TV, and it was a while ago- about mid 90's. What I remember is two teenage girls, possibly on the edge of graduation, both share ambitions of leaving the small town they live in. Both go to a lake or pool of some sort because someone who moves away without swim...

Simply put, every House has some characteristics they search after. Gryffindor has bravery, Slytherin has purity, and Ravenclaw has intelligence. But Hufflepuff? Said Hufflepuff, ‘I’ll teach the lot, And treat them just the same.' Hufflepuff takes students from far and wide (ideally), as...

I'm trying to identify a short story that I read in a sci-fi anthology from the late 60s or 70s about an expedition to an alien world. The spaceship encounters a civilization and sends one crew member to the surface. This crew member meets the aliens, realizes something is amiss, and contacts ...

In the pilot for "Stargate: Atlantis", the Wraith Queen's dinner table has what appears to be the head of a Mastadge for a centerpiece. The creature appeared in the 1994 movie "Stargate" (it was the large beast that took a liking to Daniel), but didn't otherwise appear in the series. However, the...

So I have memory of seeing a movie when I was young. I've tried all sorts of searches over the years based on keywords from my memory of it but... nothing. Did this movie really exist??? My "memory" of it is very fragmented. I seem to remember it being dubbed into English, no idea what the base ...

I caught the tail end of a strange horror or sci-fi movie and the credits were cut short because of commercials so I never found out the title. The overall look and feel was campy and of the late 80s to early 90s. The lead female character appeared to be Madonna or someone else with a similar lo...
