    D&D 4E [4e] Wizard as good as a Fighter in Standard Melee

    Yes... but that is a LOT of IFs. And you would have to ask why the fighter isn't using all his cool fighter powers or his cool weapon proficiencies or his aweseom fighter feats. I have never, ever under any circumstances, seen the fighter forgo all those cool things that make him a fighter...

    Play by Post Ravenloft

    I am hunting for an additional player for an existing "Play by Post" campaign set in Ravenloft. If you are interested, please browse around the site http://digitalridgestudios.com/phpbb2/viewforum.php?f=5 to look at basic world information, character creation rules, as well as the first three...

    Battlestar Podcasts and DVD Question

    According to Ron Moore's blog, it should be any day. They will also be posting a Q&A podcast he did. Which should be fascinating to listen to!

    The Temeraire books by Naomi Novik - Tell me of them

    I just finished His Majesty's Dragon and liked it enough to order the second and third from Amazon. A really good execution of the concept. And it manages to do something new with the concept of dragons (at least new to me - maybe someone else did it first). I really did like the...

    BSG old and new

    As a card carrying Latter-Day Saint, I am curious how you picked up the influences. :D 'Cause they infuences certainly are there (shaken and stired, of course) but I wouldn't expect many to notice. Lon

    Veronica Mars - Season 2 Premiere Tonight [Spoilers]

    [1] Thank heavens for TiVo! [2] Veronica has been getting tons of media love. If anything, if it makes a showing against Lost, it should be considered a win. [2a] As much as I do like Lost (frustrating bits and all) - Veronica Mars will get watched first. [3] Has to be Duncan. Her...

    Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince-SPOILERS!!!!

    Not to mention the previous conversation between Snape/Dumbledore where Dumbledore reminds Snape of his duty and that D. will hold him to it. I believe that was foreshadowing the eventual killing.

    Lost "Born to Run" 05/11

    I would love it to ber her father because we are really getting a daddy-issue theme going! Jack is on the island *because* of his father! As are Sun & Jin. (Her father). But there were issues with his father as well. Sawyer's father killed his mother and himself. Locke was (I would bet) in...

    [Spoilers] Veronica Mars - Now it's gettin' really good

    Wanna hear a real out there theory? Maybe it was Abel Koontz?!? You know, the guy in jail having confessed for the crime. Hear me out! We all know Koontz was mad as all get out at Jake Kane. We also know Koontz and Duncan have the same doctor (thus making it easy for Veronica to...

    Sin City

    GN <-> Screen Yup! Proud owner of the original issues and a couple of versions of the graphic novels. I never made the claim that the movie tried to be a completely faithful adaptation of the story from the comic. As has been pointed out, it wasn't. What I did say was that there was a very...

    Sin City

    Comic -> Movie I would put the original Crow (w/ Brandon Lee) in this category as well. And, (in response to other posts), we are not talking about putting borders up on the screen and making the movie *look* like a comic book. We are talking about taking the graphic layout of the actual...

    Veronica Mars - 11/23/04

    I agree that Keith as the killer does not look good, nor does it feel good. It was just a fun theory to toss out and chew over. But I have had a real problem with Mrs. Kane for some time. And I've had a hard time pegging Jake as the killer, despite what Keith originally thought. Jake has...

    Veronica Mars - 11/23/04

    Boy, the other night sure implicated Mrs. Kane in something. Not sure what. I am beginning to wonder is Veronica wasn't the intended target and Lily happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. Did Mrs. Kane intend to kill Veronica to punish both her husband and Mrs. Mars and was then...
