So recently I felt a slight pang of regret for not reading enough of this really interesting book I got from the library at age 9. The plot goes something like this:
1: There is this evil crocodile kisser
2: There are two raccoons living in a DeSoto car
3: Blueberry Pie!
4: Also I know this takes...
When Khan first defeats Admiral Kirk, he asks about Project Genesis.
Why would he ask about Project Genesis?
Wouldn't the USS Reliant, a ship dedicated to helping the Genesis scientists, have far more information in its computers? Khan used the Ceti eels to con...
In the finale battle between Harry and Voldemort, Harry leaps off a certain height dragging Voldemort down with him. This causes them both to be disoriented when they land, which ultimately places them on equal ground.
I’m puzzled as to why this super-wizard cannot deflect Harry’s push, or at t...

But the machines are still working, and provide him with food. But the problem is that the food is made for Martians, so he can't eat i...

I wonder if Sanderson ever answered it on any panels.
Do the metals simply magically disappear after they are burnt or are they in any way excreted from the body?
Do they provide any nutritious value for the allomancers?
If allomancers can control what metal they burn, can they also control what ...

Protagonist arrives at a coastal UK town and runs afoul of a bike gang (some song going "Black Leather, B...

The term "time loop" is sometimes used to refer to a causal loop, but although they appear similar, causal...
In the original X-Men movie, Mystique takes the form of Wolverine, including the appearance of having Adamantium claws. The claws are clearly not actual Adamantium though, as Wolverine is able to slice them off in one quick swipe.

I'm searching for an episode where Seto Kaiba is asked not to do a certain action (can't remember the details) because it would harm someone. His response is what I'm really after. He says something along the lines of, "I'm the CEO of a company -- I ruin people's lives every day!"
I'm pretty sure I read this in Analog, in the early 1990s. As best I can recall the story is set on Earth; technology and society are not greatly different from current, except possibly for a certain amount of imported alien tech.
The aliens came to us, but are essentially driven by commerce. ...
How Malcolm ends up believing that Cole isn’t insane is that in one tape recording of Vincent a man can be heard extremely quietly repeating
