I watched this movie in the early to mid 90s. It was about a small group of teenage like alien boys that landed, possibly due to a tech issue or even crash landing, on earth. They were found by some younger kiddos. One was a little girl. The alien boys had a very surfer, hippie tone of voice and ...

These apes are the very last ones and they help them to preserve the species.They give them a shot of medicine a...

What's the explanation of the Staten Island joke at 2:13 when Jon Snow visits Seth Meyers please? I guess Staten Island is 400 leagues = 2,000 kilometers north of Washington DC or something which is what the guy thinks is referred to when Jon Snow says 'King's Landing'? It is 300km though? https:...

I was always under the impression (or never encountered) that swearing and offensive language is not present in the Star Wars universe, yet in Andor season 1, episode 3, Linus Mosk uses a word that could be considered offensive also there is a use of the word bastards, I'm pretty sure no swearing...

I recall reading a story in my teenage years where some protoplasmic alien eats up several humans from a crashed rocket landing on an alien planet. They happen to survive as the alien just incorporates them as part of its own body but of course they are mush. Any ideas which story this is? And wh...

There's been quite a number of film treatment of SF novels by Phillip K Dick and they have all, at least to my impression, been wildly successful from Blade-Runner based on his Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep to Total Recall based upon We Can Remember It For You Wholesale. But he didn't also ...

I have left two commebts on posts. Both innocuous and they have been both been deleted. Why? No reason was given.

Why was this question deleted? Apparently it was on the basis of "possible offence". Did anyone complain? Should there not have been a request to re-edit before deletion?

In S'TarKan's Team 8 fanfic, Naruto winds up getting a turtle summon contact instead of the toad one. Several of the summons are obvious references such as his first summon being a Squirtle, one being Clothahump from the Spellsinger series, and the penultimate summon, The Four, being implied to b...

I read a story in the early 2000's (don't know how contemporary was the book). I think it was a Russian author but I'm not sure, but I read it in Russian. The story had a man live in a post apocalyptic city presumably in the far future. I remember that their lives were quite comfortable and autom...

I'm looking to re-read a SciFi short story about some "hive mind" babies that are born around the same time in a village... A similar plot to John Wyndham's The Midwich Cuckoos, but quite different. The babies never grow up or learn to walk. And they eventually all leave home and live together in...
