Questions about specific movies, TV shows and more
These are questions relating to specific titles. General questions for movies and TV shows are here. Members get e-mailed when any of their questions are answered.
Question: Why did they stop when they got out of the Whomping Willow?
Question: At the climax of the movie when Malcolm talks to his wife while she was sleeping, a ring from her has fallen down to the floor, what does it mean? Is his wife married to another man?
Answer: It's his own wedding ring. He recognizes it and sees she is still wearing hers and he isn't wearing his own, so at that point he realises he is dead.
Answer: The ring was Malcolm's - she kept it after he died. When it falls Malcolm realises that he hasn't been wearing it even though he sees it on his hand.
Question: Instead of trying to murder them, why didn't the Lizzies simply contact the Riffs and tell them they had 3 of the warriors and to come get them? They had plenty of time.
Answer: The Riffs had put out a hit on the Warriors via the radio DJ, meaning that it didn't matter if the Warriors were taken alive or not; the Lizzies probably figured it would be easier simply to kill the Warriors and collect the reward.
Question: Had John Doe not been killed by Mills, what charges would he be facing exactly?
Answer: At the very least, six counts of first degree/premeditated murder (the five sin victims, plus Tracy); six counts of assault and battery; three counts of home invasion; and two counts of kidnapping (Gluttony and Sloth). His lawyer says that he planned to plead insanity, but this could not realistically have been defended, at the very least because (as Somerset points out) his threat to do so would be admissible evidence.
Also, adding to the fact that he's blackmailing them... Given the circumstances that the crimes are related to the "Seven Deadly Sins" and they've only got 5 to that point, that does lend credence to the threat of there still being 2 more victims out there. However, there's countless missing persons. It's not the same as if a specific victim is missing, with a family being left unknowing of their whereabouts.
Question: How did getting shot knock Jason unconscious? Second, how did getting shot cause him to lose his memory?
Question: Why were they all staring at Phil because he asked the man to cuff Phil to him? Also why did Cylia and Cyril not seem so angry at Phil?
Question: Why does Phil so desperately want the farm?
Answer: Money.
Question: Why would Phil even gamble away the farm to Mrs Biggles in the first place? If he didn't neither him or Isabel and her kids would have gotten in that awful mess in the first place?
Answer: Clearly he is not a very responsible person. This was to create a storyline to add to the film.
Question: What kind of chocolate was it that Hogarth poured on Mansley's ice cream?
Answer: It was a laxative to make him go to the bathroom.
Question: How could the play "The Rainmaker" still be performed after Fonzie scared off the director?
Answer: If all the actors and hands know their roles well enough they could perform the play reasonably well even without a director.

Question: If they already vanquished Sargon in "Soul Survivor" and burned all the contracts, shouldn't the deal between him and Count Roget have been broken too?
Answer: No. Because it was in a time loop that only him and the Count knew, and as such even though in the present Sargon was vanquished the time of the time loop he was still alive.
Answer: Yes.
Question: What exactly was the enormous creature that came out of the ground and attacked Flash in the forest?
Answer: Spider.
Question: How does Magneto know that Stryker was the one who gave Wolverine his adamantium?
Answer: When Mystic broke into Stryker's offices, by changes into Lady Deathstryke, she got into his computer files. There were decades of top secret and covert op files. Besides, Magneto himself had decades to gather intelligence on any government officials, who were against mutants.
Answer: He didn't know specifically it was Colonel Stryker who experimented on Logan, but he knew the answers were at the secret military base hidden within the dam.
Question: I've only seen a few episodes so some info would be helpful. After running very fast and for a long period of time, why does the Flash suddenly become very weak?
Answer: The Flash burns energy the same way a normal human does, just at an extremely high tolerance. His metabolism is incredibly high and he must constantly eat to maintain his energy levels. If he runs at high speed for a long period of time he will burn his stored energy and become very weak.

Answer: Hermione was telling Harry to go over to Sirius, who had gone a little further ahead. Harry was torn between tending to Ron, who'd injured his leg, and wanting to talk to Sirius. Hermione thought it more important for Harry and Sirius to talk while she stayed with Ron. Harry had only found out moments before that Sirius was not responsible for murdering his parents, and he had much to discuss with his godfather.
