Where did all the good torrents go?

I've tested it on multiple major franchise titles like Harry Potter and Star Wars and the only real hits are 5 seeder duds. The rest of the results are porn parodies, trailers (who is torrenting these???) or completely unrelated titles.

I thought some kind of apocalyptic torrent purge had happened, but other torrent sites like piratebay seem fine?

de Camp and Carter's edits

I just bought the first volume of Conan anthologies edited by de Camp and Carter with some original stories by the two. How substantial are these edits to the original stories by Howard? I frankly hadn't expected this book to include whole stories written by other authors and I question how that was even legal.

My favorite recent(ish) S&S film

It was poorly-received at the time, but it has experienced a bit of a renaissance within last few years by comparison to the godawful Disney remake and the vindication of Kristen Stewart as an actor post-Twilight. It has a fantastically dark and gritty tone, the fight scenes are brutal and visceral and the CG effects actually hold up really well.

Hypothetically, where in the world would nonavian dinosaurs be most likely to survive to the Cenozoic?

Just something I've wondered about in regards to lost world fiction. It's not a genre you see much of anymore, but is there a place this would be more scientifically plausible? I've thought of Greenland because we know so little about its prehistory what with it being covered in ICE, but I'd be interested in hearing anyone else's ideas.

Has anyone read the Atlan books?

I so rarely encounter anyone who has read them but figured someone here might. Really interesting series up until the terrible sequel book from the 70s. It's a shame it was never made into a movie during the 80s fantasy golden age.
