Since Tony doesn't ever go and get actual treatment in the film, there isn't a clear-cut yes/no answer to this. You can read the DSM's criteria for PTSD here, and see that Tony definitely shows many of the symptoms of PTSD during the film. This article (despite frequent formatting issues) does an excellent job of discussing Tony's arc through the 4 films, ...

I believe, Sandor was basically a good man and he was obeying Joffrey, only because he was bound by his sense of duty. Besides, Sandor had a past with fire. In one of the episodes from season -1, we learn that when Sandor was a kid, his elder brother shoved his face into fire and hence the burn marks on his face.
Now, during the battle with Stanis, initially ...

I really liked looking at Sydnor so I am perhaps a bit biased but to me, and I am sure Simon David confirmed this, Sydnor represented the few hardworking and talented and dedicated members of the force, he was an actual good guy, and in ordinary circumstances, i.e. without a self involved, glory seeking, corrupt group of individuals more concerned about ...

Sydnor, as you see in the final episode, turns into McNulty.
Sydnor was meant to be seen as Jimmy McNulty.
Remember the final episode showed the "origin".
Michael -> The new Omar
Dukwon -> The new Bubbles
Sydnor -> The new McNulty
Carver -> Any middle management (Burell etc...)
Kima -> the new Daniels (I'm not totally sure about this, but ...

During the scene where Tony has the surgery, you can see a miniature ARC reactor and some gadgets above Tony. As the surgeon removes a piece of shrapnel, he releases it and it flies up to the gadget. So Tony and the surgeon built an electromagnetic device to help out with the surgery. The eagle-eyed will also notice that when they show Pepper and Rhodey ...

My theory goes with the assumption that He could have removed the shrapnel at any time after coming back to the States
Bear with me.
Imagine, you're Tony Stark. You're told by a genius scientist that he can't remove a piece of shrapnel due to sterilization and equipment purposes.
You become dependent upon the mini-arc reactor that you put inside your ...

The movie does not provide an answer to this question.
When Vincent Vega asks Mia Wallace what really happened, she says something to the effect of "that's between Marcellus and Tony Rocky Horror," and leaves it at that.

There is little doubt that the intent of Fleming and the Bond producers in using 00 is to emphasize the exclusivity of the agent number and it is explicit that his category is "licensed to kill", certainly a rarity in government agents. There can't be more than ten of them (presumably), though often he interacts with special forces with dozens of members on ...

I was trying to figure out the same thing. Maybe it is a sort of "therapy" for her. The only explanation is that his father didn't close Charlie's phone account; therefore, she is still able to call Charlie. Charlie definitely died last season.

This scene is illustrating the Buck "Rogers" Compton is shell-shocked. This is now know as PTSD Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Since I don't know Compton personally, I can only guess that his trauma relates to his experiences from D-Day through Carentan. This scene to me is meant to convey that the cost of war isn't measured in dollars. It also conveys that ...

From Wikipedia:
Although pronounced "Double-O", the O refers to
zeros. In the British and Commonwealth armed
forces, soldiers and officers are assigned identity
numbers; the United States military does likewise.
During Ian Fleming's work in Vichy France, an agent's anonymity was imperative, and, when the
agent was military, it was convenient to ...

Bond's number—007—comes from the English spy and polymath John Dee,
who signed his letters to Elizabeth I with 00 and an elongated 7, to
signify they were for her eyes only.
The number was also assigned by Fleming in reference to one of British
naval intelligence's key achievements of World War I: the breaking of
the German diplomatic code. ...

The reason is that the Hulk Comics/Cartoons/Movies are all made in focusing children, so they don't want to show Green porn.
Anyways below are lee's funny answer on the same topic -
Q: If it weren’t for the Comics Code, would the Hulk’s pants have ripped
off like his shirt?
Stan Lee: I guess it probably would have. So occasionally the Code did

According to co-writer/producer Bob Gale:
We never explained it in the movie. But the history of the characters that Bob Zemeckis and I created is this:
For years, Marty was told that Doc Brown was dangerous, a crackpot, a lunatic. So, being a red-blooded American teenage boy, age 13 or 14, he decided to find out just why this guy was so ...

Yes, this happens in the episode - One Minute. When Walt's wife pursuades him to help Hank, Walt hatches up this plan to replace Gale with Jessie. Walt knew that Jessie was furious over what happened to him and a really big offer was needed to pacify him and let Hank go. Plus if Jessie works with him there is also lesser chances of him getting caught and ...

As noted in Wikipedia, (the Judi Dench) M's real name is very likely Olivia Mansfield. The source for this entry is this article on comingsoon.net which reveals:
There was also something else that cropped up while we were looking through the archive, something that may be of even more interest to Bond fans. As we looked at the porcelain bulldog M ...

The only fact I would add to the answers above is that in the books (Moonraker and The Man with the Golden Gun) one of the M characters is named as Sir Miles Messervy. M was his initial.
My guess is that the character M was carried over into the films, Judi Dench was cast and the initial continued. A name through evolution rather than because every person ...
