    Ancient aliens on the history channel. Arrrrghhh!

    I saw Ancient Aliens. I liked the part best where that one doctor talked about how the pyramids were actually used as landing platforms by an advanced alien race. Jackson, I think, was his name. Excellent. It could make for a good movie. Oh wait, maybe I'm thinking of something else. a...

    Knights of Bloodsteel

    I missed most of the first part of this and a portion of the second part. But, here are my thoughts: The acting was pretty decent. None of it really made me cringe. The lighting, sound and sets were good, I didn't have to play with the contrast, light levels or volume on the remote. Make up...

There were already a few intense moments in the show that threaten to blow up into very complex plotlines. That's not even including...

    Pre-Cast Rituals?

    Thank you all for your comments. I don't really want spells to solve all problems, but if a group (for example) lacks a rogue, I'd like the knock spell or something to be a more viable on-the-fly option instead of halting for 10 minutes at every locked door or what-not. Sure, it will take 10...

    Pre-Cast Rituals?

    I really do like what WotC has done with rituals, overall and generally. However the one thing I do not like is that using rituals to make up for a lack of a skill-set within a party basically grinds everything to a halt. If you are pursuing some bad guys and they close and lock a door on...
