SPOILER ALERT So in the final part of crisis on infinite earths, in the beginning of the episode, when Barry and Kara first found out that nobody remembered the multiverse when the guy asked for an autograph, he mentioned that Barry and Kara were usually accompanied by Green Arrow and a couple o...

No, not the CGI movie Turbo, but an early 90s cartoon similar to the Ninja Turtles; a team of humanoid snails who fought an army of evil bugs from space. They drew power from their shells, I believe, and had different colors. I know I saw this [at _least in passing] on TV as a kid growing up! D...

Does anyone remember a show from probably somewhere in 2000 to 2015? It involved magic cubes, a yellow robot sidekick, a big mexican mechanic and a girl who couldnt sing. Does anyone have any idea the name of this show?

I know he simply skipped whole fighting scene by single word, "Hail Hydra". What happens if Captain America fights hydra agents like he did in Winter Soldier?

Okay, so I'm asking this purely in regards to the new Disney canon. From Episode II, we learn that Boba Fett is an unaltered clone of Jango Fett. Then, in Star Wars: The Clone Wars we see kid Boba a few times and he's hanging out with several of the more regular bounty hunter characters. It see...

In The Mandalorian series, we learned that And yet, I never saw Jango Fett following such rules. Other than showing his face, he even gave his DNA for creation of clone army, potentially revealing his face to trillions. Why this inconsistency in the Mandalorian rule? Is this rule/ protocol ap...

I can’t find this fanfic I read a couple years ago. I remember the following details: Harry goes back in time and is deaged to 10 and is the same age as James He claims he is the son of Charlus Potter’s lost sister He is adopted by the Potters Voldemort thinks harry is his grandson Thanks!

In the TV series The Mandalorian beskar is a metal for forging different things. I have a question about this "metal". Why is this metal important for the Mandalorians? Is for the origin of the metal or their properties? or is for somtheing more spiritual, like a ritual with their armors for ex...

"nearly 99.9% of all test subjects accepted the program, as long as they were given a choice" How could the humans have rejected the program if they had no choice? Isn't that a paradox? You cannot reject something if you have no choice, otherwise you would have a choice.

I was wondering if there were any real-world parallels of events that happened in the DC comics. I found a few ones that could fit: Lex Luthor, a high profile industrialist and force behind LexCorp, becoming the President of the United States could be compared to the current US President Donald...

In Crisis on Infinite Earths part 5 of Arrowverse they reboot the whole universe and a new universe is formed. It is shown that on Earth 2 there resides Stargirl and some other heroes. Who are these other heroes shown along with Stargirl?

In Guardians of the Galaxy, you see the titular Guardians kill Ronan the Accuser on Xandar using the Power Stone. But if he's an immortal entity, shouldn't that mean it can't phase him?

This comic would probably be from the 70s and belonged to my father, but unfortunately got lost when moving house. It was in Spanish, but I wouldn't be surprised if it was translated from a different language -or was inspired by some other original sources. There were multiple stories. I remembe...

Anime where in the first episode a high school boy, his girlfriend and a friend are shown but after that the government comes to capture him. But he is saved by his people. Government erased memory of his whole school. Years later he is broadcast in the whole country and upon seeing him his girlf...

This is a thriller movie I saw ~10 years ago on TV and there was a scene where one of the characters has a nightmare of opening the bathroom door from the inside, and sees his mother behind the door, except she has no eyes and two holes instead of a nose and possibly very long fingers. Another sc...

Christopher Tolkien, son and literary executor of JRR Tolkien has died at the age of 95. Christopher was involved in the creation of The Lord of the Rings, notably drawing the maps in the back and also functioning as one of the first early readers through correspondence with his father while sta...

Christopher Tolkien passed away recently. From our in-memoriam meta post: When [JRR] Tolkien died, he gave Christopher complete control over his unpublished writings, to destroy or publish any of them in whole or part. Did Christopher have anything similar set up for his own death? Do we ye...

Christopher Tolkien, recently deceased, is best known for his work as editor on many of his famous father's stories set in Middle-earth, most famously the Silmarillion. He also did work as a translator, and he was an Oxford professor like his father. But was he also an author in his own right? D...

I have read this manga in the past. The story in first few chapters is about the adventure of the hero' party going back to the town after defeating the demon king. But it turned out that all the party members except for the mc is already dead. So, basically the mc as necromancer bring back the d...

I read a kid's chapter book from my school library in 1988. I remember it was 1988 because that was the year George H. W. Bush was inaugurated and the whole school watched it on TV, and that's the only year I was at that school. The book was a science fiction chapter book, almost certainly paper...

Christopher John Reuel Tolkien, J. R. R. Tolkien's third son, died very recently. He is best know for editing and publishing materials he inherited from his father, including these three books: The Children of Húrin (2007), Beren and Lúthien (2017), The Fall of Gondolin (2018). According to W...

I was looking over the Wikipedia list of time travel stories and realized one I had read in the early 1980s was not listed. It was a short novel, perhaps 100 to 150 pages in paperback. I recall it being a well-known author of the 1970s, on par with (for instance) Pohl (but not him, I checked). T...

From years of fighting Apophis in his prision should Bast be able to easily defeat Apophis in the kane Chronicles

Another lost story with a memorable fragment. A man is held captive in an authoritarian country. He was once an important man but has fallen out of favor, and he will be executed at a time of his captors' choosing. As it turns out, they give him days to think, and he has many conversations with t...

There are (at least) three Wiki website dedicated to Tolkien's works: Tolkien Gateway, The J.R.R.T. Encyclopedia. The One Wiki to Rule Them All (fandom.org), The LotR Wiki The Tolkien Wiki Community I notice that the third site seems much smaller, older, and looks like it hasn't been updated ...
