What are all of the chinese phrases in Firefly/Serenity? I've watched Firefly with subtitles, and it just says something like "[Chinese]" for those parts. |

Is “Oblivion” somehow linked to “Moon”? Well, thanks a lot for the spoiler, then. |

Name of the Paladins' weapons? @ChristianRau, at a guess, SteB cares how it's named, and that's why he/she asked the question. If trivial questions are off-topic here, the whole site will have to be closed. It's about movies, for Pete's sake. |

In “Prometheus” why bring anyone but David-type androids? Because the movie would be boring? Compare with The Phantom Menace's battle between the droids and the Gungans. It was boring, because it was CG vs CG. A movie has to have real people to be interesting. |

Are real guns used in movies? The gun information is interesting, but the "Freeway Chase" information is gratuitous and detracts from the answer. You ought to consider removing it. |

Did James Bond fail his mission in “Skyfall”? He promises to protect the woman who introduces him to Silva - she dies. Did she in fact die? I thought the whisky(?) glass fell because she fainted or something. |

Why was the Avengers movie called something different in the UK? Movie people seem to have a paranoia about this sort of thing. Witness The Secret of NIMH, where Mrs. Frisby was renamed "Mrs. Brisby" to avoid infringing on the Frisbee(!) trademark. |

At the end of the movie, does Aunt May know Peter Parker is Spiderman? I was waiting for her to open the carton and see that all the eggs were smashed. |

Why doesn't the bomb cause radiation poisoning to Gotham City? Now the real question: Will the radiation poisoning spawn a whole new crop of supervillains? |

in Skyfall opening scene on train, does Bond fake getting shot? If Bond were going to intentionally throw himself off the train, why not grab hold of the bad guy and throw them both off the train? |

How did Indy know not to look into the Ark? Good answer, but I think you should move the biblical reference to the top. You could also add a reference to 2 Samuel 6:6-8, which refers to a man who died from touching the ark. As a scholar, Indiana Jones would have been familiar with the biblical passages, and wouldn't have needed a warning from an imam; perhaps that's why they cut it. |

To what extent are child actors exposed to the violent aspects of the movie they perform in? Seems like the whole thing was speculative, not just the last bit. |

Why did Blade Runner deviate from the source novel so significantly @dmckee, actually, the handling of Gollum's internal conflict was external in the book too. Sam awoke and overheard it. |

Why did Hendricks jump from the parking structure at the end of the fight scene in MI4? It wasn't a factory. It was an automated parking garage. |

Has Ethan Hunt ever refused a mission? It would make for an awfully short movie. |
