Are there any characters in the SW universe that carry the last name Skywalker, and who aren't related to Anakin/Luke/Leia/etc.? I.e., is the Skywalker name completely exclusive to the Vader lineage, or, are there others?

The infinity stones are extremely powerful in each of their respective specialties, but is there a limit to the amount of power contained within? Assuming a stone isn't destroyed (if that itself is even possible), does the power of an infinity stone ever run out?

There's a novel that I read years ago for which I can no longer remember the author or the title; so if you recognise the content, I'd be a happy camper. :-) The only things I can remember are... 1/ It was about mental powers, telepathy, etc 2/ Children developed these abilities at or about ...

This one's a bit of a long shot, because I don't remember many identifiable details, but it's worth a try. I'm almost certain the book had the word "chameleon" in the title. My copy ws a hardcover, I don't know if it came out as a paperback. The cover was black with, I think, a small, colorful p...

Wikipedia pages of Superman 2 and Richard Donner both show that Richard Donner had directed Superman 2 along with Richard Lester, but he was uncredited. Well, if he was uncredited, how can anyone credibly say that he was involved in the direction of the movie? What are the sources?

I understand that they didn't have the budget to make a bunch of massive creatures for the boys to fight, but is that the only reason? Maybe the budget? Maybe the fact it had to be a realistic fight for the boys? Anyone have any other ideas?

What does Lucius Malfoy do for work? I know they have a lot of gold, so how did the family obtain it? Was it inherited just like the Potter family? He was a school governor, but was that his only job? Not sure if school governors actually get paid. I don't think he actually worked at the ministry...

First things first, let's just pretend the hyperspace ramming in the Last Jedi didn't happen, because Hyperspace ramming means every FTL-capable vessel in the galaxy is a deadly weapon capable of destroying star destroyers, making this thread irrelevant. Okay, so according to Wookieepedia, Han S...

I think it starts similar to the hobbit in a peaceful land but it's surrounded by high mountains that keep out these shadow people trying to invade. At one point the main character and a group (not sure the number) are in caves fighting creatures and trying to stop some kind of evil from opening...

In the Disney Cannon was Maul a Sith? Looking at some of the discussion around this question. there seems to be some confusion as to the status of Maul's sithhood in his later years. Wookiepedia lists him as 'sith (formerly)' but the reference seems to be the phantom menace which would not deal...

In Final Crisis, there's a scene when Nix Uotan is thrown into a cell, along with others who are immune to the anti-life equation. Two others are in there - one is Metron in the body of a handicapped man, and the other is some very hairy man who provides some exposition. Who is this hairy man? A...

I figured this would've been asked already, but I couldn't find it when searching. In A Storm of Swords, But a few things seem off at the surface. Also This implies to me that Varys may have manipulated things to get Tyrion into a certain emotional state to become his unwitting tool....

I started reading the first book in this series a few years ago, about 2015, and am in the mood to re-read and then finish the series, but have completely forgotten the title of both the book and the series as well as the author's name. The book had already been published for a couple of years ...

If the wielder of a Green Power ring has enough will power, can he read minds and/or alter memories of an individual using his ring? If yes, are there any such instances?

Paperback book, probably from 1950s or 60s. Premise, a colony has been established on a mountain plateau of a jungle planet. (pop maybe 200-500 people) There are ape like creatures living in jungle. The colony is trying to survive on the plateau. (afraid of the ape creatures, or what else might ...

It's my understanding that per Legends canon, the Sith are/were a Force-capable race who were enslaved by powerful Dark Side users. These tyrants therafter referred to themselves as Sith Lords. Their order expanded and grew more and more powerful, until their defeat in the Sith War at the hands o...

Some friend asked me this question today, and without hesitation I said off course Darkseid beats Doomsdays, but then I saw this comic panel. In which Doomsday wrecks Darkseid, but this is and old comic, I think. Is there any new source of a fight between them, and who would win?

I'm looking for fantasy novels whose story and world are as internally coherent and consistent as possible. So ideally the novels would have few plot holes or deus ex machina in them, and the plot would flow naturally from the premises, rather than being contrived to reach a certain end. I don'...

Let me throw out a few examples and potential evidence either way: We have heard Picard utter isolated words and phrases in French ("merde", "maman") and "11001001": PICARD: "Incroyable! Vous êtes Parisienne?" MINUET: Au fond, c'est vrai, nous sommes tous Parisiens. PICARD: Oui, au fon...

In the 1980s, I read part of a novel that was written by a real futurist, highlighting what technologies might acutallyexist about one hundred years in the future. Before I forgot the author's name, I remember having seen him interviewed about space exploration possibilities on PBS's NOVA or a s...

Feel free to edit my question, as it's the first time I'm posting on this network. Also, I couldn't find any relevent tags, so feel free to edit tags as well. In Tremors, after Burt and Heather kill the second graboid, they climb to their roof. Later, Val radios them with a plan to hop in their ...

I heard this audio book maybe ten-twelve years ago. It was american and voice-acted quite well. It concerned a satellite being sent to earth by extra-terrestrials. It was intelligent and believed it had the measure of humanity. It proceeded to create a biological weapon designed to force humanit...

I've been trying to remember the name of this movie that I watched when I was really young. It's a kids movie about a young boy who finds a green rock/stone, which is an alien, and then has to run from the bad guys in order to protect his alien/rock friend. The only other thing I remember is that...
