I believe it was a Short Story but cant be sure (I just cant think of enough to have made it novel length). It was in English probably read 30+ years ago. Set in modern times. The girl looks early Teens in age (12-13-14). I think the story told from the perspective of a man who meets her. She w...

When I was young there was a preview for a cartoon that I am certain was anime style. I've thought about it a ton since.

The Warriors is a 1979 film (with a 2005 home re-release that adds comic book transitions between scenes) that takes place in New York City that is full of peculiar gangs.

I am looking for a series of young adult novels that I read in the early 90's. I read them in French but I believe they were originally written in English. The story revolved around a young girls boarding school where some of the residents were actually werewolves... That is frankly all I can mus...

I remember watching a TV show where theres a family consisting of a Dad, Mom, Elder sister and a Brother.

I think the main characters are not racing to the end, they give up at some point. Does it ring a bell to someone? I don't know the name, author, language and I am trying to find the book.

I'm trying to find a comic/graphic novel I once saw, but do not remember its name nor author. Here are some things are remember (or think I remember): It was monochromatic, but instead of the normal black, used a light brown/tan as primary color. Probably took place on a beach. Was about a tro...

Lily and James were immensely powerful wizards. They had escaped Voldemort himself three times. They would have maybe survived You-Know-Who if they had their wands. They also knew the Dark Lord was after them. So why did they leave their wand in another room?

This magazine piece was either a long feature on a notional global pandemic or part of a special edition focusing on this and other disaster scenarios. It would have been released around 1995-2005; I could have sworn it was from Wired, but I can't find it in their archives, or from other searches...

Why did Newt go in through No-Maj customs? There should be a wizarding checkpoint, right?

Why couldn’t Newt use ‘Accio’ to retrieve all his beasts? That would have made everything so much easier, right?

We know that a Quidditch game can last indefinitely, and we know there are examples of the Quidditch World Cup lasting a week or more. If so, why did Arthur Weasley only rent the campsite by the World Cup for one night, if it was likely to take longer than a day, he should have left the rental op...

Ok, so today I bought the book Mother Knows Best: A Tale of the Old Witch, which basically tells Mother Gothel’s backstory and I can’t help but notice the similarities between her sister, Hazel, and Witch Hazel from Looney Tunes. Both are witches. Witch Hazel from Looney Tunes is, like Gothel, ...

The story begins with the narrator waking up on an airplane due to a "bump," which he assumes to be from turbulence. Everything seems normal at first, and his thoughts drift. I think most of the text is his own internal monologue and reminisces, but he keeps noticing minor details that strike his...

I read this book on Kindle Unlimited a year or two ago. An electromagnetic pulse event hits while a man is on a business trip in Alaska and his family (a wife and 3 girls, I think) are back home in the lower 48 states. The family is well prepared for such an event with guns and supplies. The sto...

I've a vague memory of a cartoon, possibly shown on ITV (UK) or RTE (Ireland) circa 1985. The rabbit had an Australian accent, and could have been a discarded cuddly toy, there was another character a "crow" which was a black wire umbrella, its head was the handle and its wings were the shredded ...

This is a short story about AI's that have to land a plane after a malfunction. I'm pretty sure one of them is called the NTSB AI. They run at super speed and are in a conference that lasts a fraction of a second running simulations to get the plane safely down, one AI says it has a risky strateg...
