I read this story somewhere around 20 years ago. Trying to find it again. The first-person narrator, referred to simply as "Al," was some sort of management for a company involved in futuristic work. It might have been asteroid mining, or something similar. They were dealing with a project that...

I read this in the early 1990s, almost definitely in a magazine, since I have a memory of black-and-white art depicting the painting in question. The setting is 5 minutes in the future, where almost everyone (except the older, resistant, protagonist) wears a computer assistant all the time. Some...

In TNG: Lower Decks, she offered to help a Cardassian defector, but while waiting in an escape pod to be picked up by the Enterprise, she was killed. I don't know how canon Star Trek games are, but it seems in Star Trek: Ship Creator, she was rescued. I also remember a potential plot for DS9, whe...

I was looking up official Star Trek text adventure games, and was surprised to find Star Trek, Star Trek: The Promethean Prophecy and Star Trek: First Contact. Do any official Star Wars text adventure games exist? Episode IV: A New Hope was released in 1977, was there any attempt at producing a S...

Why didn't the Hogwarts portraits ever see any of the crimes going on during Tom Riddle's days? Or any criminals in particular? We see many of the Hogwarts portraits interacting with students and staff members alike, and some portraits even criticize some of the actions that those students and st...

I only watched a small part of this movie. I think the premise of this movie is that a group of characters is under the effect of some kind of drug. One scene I watched had one of the characters start having seizures and foaming at the mouth. I think that character may or may not have died shortl...

[SPOILERS] Note: Kindly don't spoil/unveil the remaining movies/stories. I have to watch all movies again. I've just watched the 1st yet. I was watching Harry Potter Sorcerer's Stone again (last time I watched it in my childhood on TV and didn't have much understanding). In the end Voldemort's so...

I really liked reading Nightwings, especially for the world created there. I liked the idea of inherent guild membership due to past modifications, etc. I would like to take my RPG or LARP players there once in a while, but to do so, I would need to know which guilds are there to choose from. Has...

In Avengers, Infinity war, Captain America resists Thanos. Captain America is not as strong as the Hulk, and the Hulk was beaten to a pulp by Thanos. How would a normal Human kill Thanos?

I just saw the movie Dune, and I also read the first book a few years ago. I was surprised that one of the closest persons of the Atréides' family, Dr. Yue, didn't get any surveillance such that they were not aware his wife was captured by the enemy Harkonnens (moreover in a period of great tensi...

We know that red matter caused a singularity that opened a black hole pulling Spock Prime and Nero back in time. Near the end, when Spock crashes the ship into the Narada, it opens up another singularity, and gets sucked in and destroyed. Is there any official source that states where it went? An...

I just remember a movie. Actually just the end of the movie... the final scene. The movie should be something about time travel. That final scene I remember is: The main character in the movie to save (I think) humanity he turns the machine to get back into time... and it takes all the back to th...

One of the stories is about a Keiron of Valkrie who leads his men known as the men of edge to a fight in the capital of their empire. He fought a man -made man named Freka and exposed a consipiracy in which the new queen who had killed the emperor wanted to kill the legitimate daughter of the em...

This happened probably sometime in the late eighties to mid nineties, when Microchip was Frank's regular partner. Frank had his Battle Van, equipped with a lot of expensive technology. It got blown up several times, and cost a ton of money to replace. I remember one comic where the van got blow...

Could a transporter system in StarTrek be abused in the following way: So could someone use the replenishing source of Tribble's as the source of matter. Load an individual into the pattern buffer and subsystems. Then during the period of 8 minute degradation use that additional matter to materia...

This movie I watched was black and white. I think it took place inside some person's house. The one scene I remember was this man turning another character into a voodoo zombie by making him repeat "I am dead" and "I am a zombie".

In the movie Mars Attacks! the Martian soldiers shoot either a red ray or a green ray from their guns. These seem to leave skeletons of the same color as the ray that hit the humans. (All images taken from here) But the rifles shooting either color ray both seem to have the same red/blue color...
