Question: How did Dimitri manage to get to Anya on the bridge if Rasputin had blocked all the entry ways?
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 didn't Corey Feldman reprise the role of Donatello for this movie?
Answer: Because he was in rehab at the time.
Question: Which scene was the last one to be filmed for this movie?
Question: Why was this series cancelled after three seasons?
Question: What kind of wetsuit did Susan have in the film?
Question: Is Tombstone a zombie or undead?
Answer: He's neither. In the comics he was an albino who later was mutated to give his superhuman strength. He filed his teeth into points as a way to scare others. In this Spider-Man cartoon, his physical appearance, including his teeth, and strength was the result of falling into chemicals at the plant. However, he never died as a result of falling into the chemicals, some only thought he had died.
Lovers and Other Killers - S1-E6
Question: Just who killed the older woman at the beginning of the episode?
Question: In The Omen, it is stated that Damien's father is Satan and his mother was a jackal. However, in this film, it is shown that his mother is Maragaret Daino and she was impregnated by some demon-jackal hybrid. Am I missing something, or is this an inconsistency?
Answer: You're not missing anything. The original film was almost 50 years ago. The modern-day filmmakers just changed plot details to suit the prequel story and create the character and backstory of Damien's birth mother. This is not unusual for a film franchise or relaunch. It's different directors, writers, and producers who have a different vision or change things to fit a different time.
Question: The night that Eddie left the studio, why did Sal blame everything on Frank? If it hadn't been for Frank, they would have been stuck playing other people's songs for the rest of their lives. Because of Frank writing all of their songs, they got far enough to almost get a record deal.
Question: Are there any ways Clark could have saved his father from the tornado without the need for superspeed and thus risk his secret getting out before the time was right?
Answer: Here's how I've always visualised it. Johnathan lets Clark help. While both are running to the truck, Johnathan tells Clark that when they get there, Clark would pretend to struggle with opening the door. After "pulling" three or four times, Clark finally gets the door open, they grab the dog and run back to the shelter. By doing this, Johnathan would have survived.
Question: Why was July 5th the day of the planned terrorist plot? Was it just a coincidence, or did they think that the day after Independence Day would be the day people would least suspect and therein catch DC off guard?
Question: If the terrorists in the AC-130 gunship were to directly attack the White House, then what was the purpose of them shooting and killing civilians before doing so? Was it simply because Kang's group was maniacally there to kill people and they didn't care who?
Answer: Whilst this is never explicitly explained in the film, I do believe that it was exactly that: kill as many people, civilian or authorities, as possible before achieving their final goal.
Question: What happened to the terrorists in the garbage trucks after the attack moved inside the White House? We just see their trucks there when the response team arrives. I figured they would be told to engage the response team in a sort of last stand to cause as much chaos as possible.
Answer: One of the garbage man terrorists was killed; the others were fully prepared to die for the cause. After all, they had accomplished their objective. They were no longer needed.
Question: Why did Velma believe that everything that happened was just a hallucination, considering in the previous movies the Mystery Inc. Team dealt with zombies, voodoo, aliens, witchcraft and even got pulled into a computer?
An Eagle Feather, a String Bean, and an Eskimo - S1-E10
Question: This is a very minor issue, so I don't want to post it as a mistake; still, it bothers me. The episode titles include something from the episode. Where's an Eskimo in this episode?
Answer: The folk song "The Mighty Quinn" was written by Bob Dylan. He originally titled it "Quinn the Eskimo (The Mighty Quinn)." In the voice-over, adult Sheldon says shame on whoever wrote the line "you'll not see nothin'", because it's a double negative.
Question: In the episode "Off The Record", Lucifer tells Reese that in Hell the doors are always opened and that people can leave any time. If that's true, then when Lee tries to leave Hell here, why does he find himself still there?
Answer: The reason Lee can't leave Hell, like anyone who becomes aware they're in Hell, is because his own guilt is holding him back. Everyone in Hell is self-exiled, and they feel so much guilt deep in their souls that subconsciously they believe that they deserve to be in Hell.
Question: Why was Clyde still activating the latest bomb when he had already taught Nick the lesson not to make deals with criminals? That was his whole point he wanted to make, wasn't it? That had succeeded, so why the intent to kill more people?
Question: Why did Paul insist on taking the van rather than getting in the Humvees with everyone else? When Harry stops by the motel later to pick up ELF, we see that most if not all the equipment got left behind. We also see behind Paul a number of times whilst he's driving, and the van looks empty so it's not like it had all their gear in it.
Answer: Maybe he liked his van very much. Maybe he purchased it for his own money and it was expensive.

Answer: In the context of the movie, the "damage" has already been done, so-to-speak... he's already in the shower with Bean. And since he's also in a big rush to get to the museum, he decides to just keep showering. (In a meta, behind-the-scenes sense, it's also just funnier for him to stay in the shower rather than get out and wait for Bean.)
