    Top 10 Fantasy Movies?

    The Dark Crystal Excalibur The Last Unicorn Princess Mononoke Flesh+Blood Hundra (flaws: Italian movie, shot on a low budget but otherwise great) The Sword & the Sorcerer (flawed, cheesey, but fun) The Beastmaster (flawed) The Labyrinth (flawed ending) Princess Bride (flawed framing sequences)...

    Teen Titans: Your thoughts and mine...

    For the first time, I can say that I liked an ep of TT, mostly because it was about the characters, rather than being a lame-ass "villain of the week" escapade. The characters are still a tad "young" for my tastes. And the theme song in Japanese rocked.

    I'm afraid we've suffered a loss

    I didn't know him, but I'm sorry to hear about Ted. It's always a hard thing, to lose a friend. Peace.

    Wizards: Unsuitable Adventurers?

    Yeah, my primary wizard has at least a half-dozen copies of his spellbooks scattered (hidden) across the campaign world and carries a couple of Boccob's Blessed Books on adventures -- when he goes, that is. He acts more as a consultant these days. All of my Wizards have at least one copy of his...

    Putting a PC on 'pause'

    I'm with you, man; easiest thing in the world to play is a PC in an alternate form (willingly or otherwise). It'd be cool.

    (OT) Cartoon/TV themes

    Atom Ant, baby. Here's one that dates the hell outta me: "A scientist once brave and bold Set out to cure the common cold. Instead he found this Power Pill Which he said most certainly will Turn a man into a lion - Like an eagle he’ll be flyin’. Solid steel will be like...

    Modern Bard Songs

    Well, if it's bardic tunes you're looking for, here are some artists and lyrics to consider (mostly country/folk); I'm sure that some are downloadable somewhere if they aren't available to you readily otherwise. "Silver (The Hunger)" - Kris Kristofferson (The story of a music-making magic-man...

    Worst book WotC made for 3.0?

    A lot of these I don't have; my vote had to go to the ELH. It was 20 lbs of crap in a 3-lb sack. I frankly don't get how at 21st level, you're suddenly having "epic" adventures; what were you having prior to that? Mundane excursions? And a character who is a 10th level fighter and 11th level...

    [OT] I just saw "The Sword and the Sorceror" for the first time...

    Omigod! I thought that Frank Fontaine looked familiar! Also, I think that Liam was a guy with an axe; I'll have to check my copy (a good excuse to lust after the hothot Lysette Anthony, whom I (loosely) based an NPC on. Yum!) One more thing; the witch-woman (apparently named ''Woman'') in Hawk...

    [OT] How tall is Wolverine?

    Oh, they did it, all right; a quote from a fan-page: >>>Here<<<. I hadn't heard that he was ''not-gay'' now; maybe he's just bi. *shrug*

    [OT] How tall is Wolverine?

    Word; that made me so angry that I wanted to tear up every issue of Alpha Flight in the country, then Rochambeau the writer untli he coughed up his liver. About how I felt when it was ''revealed'' that Aurora and Northstar were actually half-elves. :rolleyes: Jesus.

    [OT] I just saw "The Sword and the Sorceror" for the first time...

    Nope, nope, wasn't me, no one can prove otherwise, that's muh story an' I'm a' stickin' to it! :D Gor...eh; I liked the books (Barsoom rip-offs that they were) before they turned into being about the main character dominating sassy Earth-wenches through Applied Sadomasochism. I watched the...

    New to the area: DC

    Yeh, Dream Wizards and the Strategist are pretty good. I still miss Fantasy Forum and Roy's Hobbies/Trains, Planes & Games, meself.

    Teen Titans: Your thoughts and mine...

    I'm unhappy with it; after the great work adapting DC properties done on Batman:TAS, Superman Adventures, Batman Beyond and Justice League, Teen Titans hits a sour note (hell, The Zeta Project was a superior effort, even though its status as yet another retread of The Fugitive theme might make...

    [OT] I just saw "The Sword and the Sorceror" for the first time...

    Sword and the Sorcerer: Brilliant movie, featuring the enchanting saucy nekkid bottom of Kathleen Beller! Rowr. Oh, and some pointy-shiny-thingy and a guy who casts spells. Hawk the Slayer: I love this movie; we all wanted a Mind-Sword (although it doesn't seem to do all that much cool stuff)...

    Silk production using giant spiders

    IIRC, in one of the Dark Sun novels, there was a breed of large peaceful herbivorous ''singing spider'' that might be suitable for animal husbandry. Can't recall if it was in any of the supplements, though.

    Dungeon/Polyhedron Life Expectancy

    The only reason that I buy it is for the Polyhedron content. I want more mini-games; four per year just ain't gonna cut it.

    I found a near mint copy of D&Dg with Cthulhu and Elric for 18 bucks!

    Dude! You do realize that sort of thing usually only happens once in a lifetime, right? Take him for everything that you can.:D Heh, I got my first copy of the D&D-G over 20 years ago (along with the PHB, DMG and MM plus dice) for fifteen bucks from one of my brother's friends -- he needed...
