I'm pretty sure there was a Voyager episode where Tom Paris (and another officer) were playing a real-time strategy game (like Age of Empires) but then they found out they are controlling actual dueling civilizations.

In The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, Thorin's company comes to Rivendell. While there, Elrond, Galadriel, and Sarumon privately brace Gandalf to inquire about his activities with the dwarves. (~1h35m) Gandalf argues that Thorin's personal quest to reclaim Erebor will have a larger strategic bene...

In my 2001 edition, translated into English by John Brownjohn in 2000 from the 1999 text by Moers, when Bluebear is becoming acquainted with the dream organ... The images were projected on the back of the Bollogg's eyes. But then... There were images from the childhood and adolescence of the C...

Trying to remember this book has been killing me for the better part of a decade, so hopefully someone can put me out of my self-inflicted misery. I read it in the late-90's or early-00's, borrowed from a library, though I'm not sure of when it was written. In this book, humans are a spacefaring ...

The wiki for Supernatural says that the Hammurabi works by sending "a wave of multidimensional energy across a perfectly balanced quantum link between whoever is shooting and whoever they're shooting at." However, if it is a gun, or energy, or anything that is an object, how would this be able to...

I saw this when I was young, and I only caught the climactic ending. A man is running through some sort of industrial facility. Up on a cat walk, the background has a red lit hue to it.

I'm trying to find a hard sci-fi novel; I think it's by Poul Anderson. The plot goes something like: Humanity expands to the stars and builds Dyson Spheres so they can broadcast themselves and their culture to other planets. An alien race who I think lives somewhere in the Virgo supercluster hea...

It was a 3D animated TV show that ran on Slovak (or maybe Czech) television sometime between 2004 and 2013. I am sure it is a foreign show, since neither of these countries had produced animated TV shows at that time (that I know of). The show was about three tribes of prehistoric people. The lan...

I'm thinking of a story I read in the 1980s or early 1990s, which may have been published at any time prior. I probably encountered it in an anthology, but I cannot remember anything particular about the book. It was around the same time I first encountered Asimov's "The Feeling of Power" and Deu...

The Hammurabi is said by Castiel to fire bits of souls, and the Soul Bomb that was supposed to kill Amara was powered by souls. In addition, Angels become more powerful with souls. In Supernatural, what type of energy are souls made of? It doesn't seem like the normal types of energy.
