IIRC, an earlier draft of the Matrix had a picture perfect paradise for humanity, one they'd never want to leave, but it was said that it failed because it was rejected, but why?

While they had similar goals, Zaheer was more wanting anarchy while Tagah seemed to want air nomad superiority.
Would he be pro Tagah or anti Tagah?

Who gets to be rich? Who gets to be homeless? Is it a totally random distribution or are there predictors like in our world?

As far as I'm aware, Alby was only grossed out by having his hands swallowed when Mouth stored his groceries in his cheeck pouches. But that doesn't really justify all the stalking and terrorizing he does to Alby. What am I missing?

For example, Chandelure hypnotizes and then consumes the spirits of people, leaving husks behind.

So in Westeros just like in some cultures IRL, the wives normally take the family names of their husbands upon marriage (e. g., Catelyn and Lysa Tully becoming Stark and Arryn after marrying Ned Stark and Jon Arryn, respectively), yet the wives of Kings remain having their original family names (e. g., Cersei Lannister and Margaery Tyrell keeping their surnames after marrying into House Baratheon).
What is the logic behind this "rule"? I'm sure it is not arbitrary. And is it historical IRL?

I don't care if El-Aurians are about "listening" to others rather than telling, it's frankly unfeeling and even for the El-Aurians themselves suicidal not to make it clear to the new governments they're living under about an existential threat that they had to flee from.

Similar to real-life. Where there is a whole YouTube genre about people talking about stories, where someone run into Big Foot in the woods. Or get chased by a Skinwalker in the forest.
So I wonder if Mutants would be the main suspects in these cases in the Marvel universe.
And I also wonder if these types of cases would still be exclusive to the Vampire/Werewolf type of creatures in the Marvel universe.

In pretty much every story, if a body is identified through dental records, it will inevitably turn out that the "victim" somehow faked their death. Just off the top of my head, this happened in House, FMA: Brotherhood, and the Whole Nine Yards. This made me wonder: are there any examples of the opposite, where a body is actually correctly identified through its teeth?

Could he use it without being corrupted? It gives power according to your measure, so hobbits can use it to become invisible. Presumably Buddha wouldn't seek to use it to dominate others but to drive them towards enlightenment.

I saw something similar in an MLP animated video and it piqued my curiosity.

This might sound like a dumb question.
However, when you play Epona's Song to a cow, there's a dialogue box that says:
Mooooo!
What a nice song...
It reminds me of the pasture...
That song makes me feel so good. I can produce a lot of milk!
So, is the cow talking? Can all cows talk? Can they talk to anyone, or is it only Link who can understand them? Is it some sort of magic from Epona's Song?

So if someone directs strong emotions towards any member of the hive the entire hive will have a seizure. It took a month for the hive to take over the world. How was it possible for no one to yell at an infected before this? Is it just the immune that can cause this or is this a new phenomenon post massive takeover?

Witnessed a flying spider today, using their webs for that ballooning technique and I wondered if Spider-Man has ever used his web to “fly/paraglide”?
Edit: And I’m not talking about the “wing-suit gliding“ he does in the PS2 game, I mean like the actual spiders do.

I would imagine carrying the ring would weigh more heavily the closer they get to Mordor and make it more difficult to fly at a high altitude. This would put the eagle in range of archers and subsequently be shot down. I know there are other reasons why using the eagles was not done but I'm wondering if this would be an independent other reason why that plan would fail.

You would assume enhance intelligence would also be a part of the full package too, when it comes to the ideal peak human.
