    Dungeons & Dragons Comments On Possibility of Future Movie Projects

    Probably not. But you, the producer, may still have made money even if it bombs. Maybe you sold the Australian distribution rights for $20MM, so the $5MM box office there isn’t your problem. Or whatever. Just saying, movie math isn’t as simple as people make it out to be.

    D&D 5E How do you handle monster knowledges in your game?

    I relay info in plain text, not stats. I use A5e lore info for checks (if available) where appropriate, sometimes the party can’t know anything, then they don’t roll. I’m not super finicky about who asks for a check if they know anything, “Bob” may ask for a knowledge check, but if “Eric” is...

    Dungeons & Dragons Comments On Possibility of Future Movie Projects

    Loved the movie. A witty bantering tv show with some group going on ridiculous adventures would be great, competing parties, big cast of weirdos. Please not animated.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    I’m a creep, and I’m a weirdo, but fork, you’re a creepy weirdo and it’s not the same, please, gtfo.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Towards the end I realized that was Judy Blue Eyes, but it’s not, exactly, is it in the beginning?

    D&D General How would people react to a visual age difference for couples of the same age?

    This would be pretty low on the ladder of the amount of weird crap the people of the Forgotten Realms have to accept as normal. If your version has no side-eyes about humans and elves mixing, then not weird, natural. My version has elves being much against, and would roll eyes at one of those...

    D&D (2024) What is With Poison?, and Other PHB Conundrums.

    In retrospect, I think he meant humanoid, which would be, yeah whatever, Githyanki not humanoid, ok. But my first reading, not really knowing what everything is now was thinking about stuff like yuan-ti pure bloods. Were humanoid, if not now, being able to out them, interesting.

    Monsters & More: An In-Depth Review of the 2025 D&D Monster Manual

    I cannot, not the sort of poster that’s good with scraping images, nor am I trying to really debate tit for tat. But if you’re not familiar with the monster menagerie, though I suspect you are…Level Up (A5E) - Monster preview thread!. Most every Monster has lore players might know about them...

    Monsters & More: An In-Depth Review of the 2025 D&D Monster Manual

    Well then, if you don’t want to know more game practical stuff about the base monsters, the new MM also won’t be for you either.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    One of the worst beers I’ve ever had was Shiner’s Birthday Beer (I think some intention of a chocolate cake beer vaguely looking like a stout) some 6 or so years ago, still remember how awful it was, which I suppose would be a very bad, because Shiner, take on the genre even if an early entry...

    Monsters & More: An In-Depth Review of the 2025 D&D Monster Manual

    I’m super lukewarm on the new MM. It certainly seems better than the previous one, so good update. But for base monsters still doesn’t seem better than Flee Mortals or A5E’s Monster Menagerie. Both would be better for a new DM getting their first monster book. That said, we all know that no...

    How Do You Learn Boardgames?

    I’ve never had to bring something quite that complex to my group. But my method is read rules with the start setup laid out in front of me. Mostly, I don’t have patience for long rules and zone out for large parts of the reading. Then watch some play through/tutorial which I also don’t have...

    I’ve been out of brewing and, and going to brew pubs for about 5 years, what’s a pastry stout? Like a sweet doughnuty stout?

    Star Trek and Idealism vs cynicism

    Not seen the movie, Just thought I’d pipe up about the Aeschylus quote. Probably a way to obliquely reference the Kennedys, another image vs reality situation. It’s a pretty obscure guy to drop, but RFK was a huge fan and quoted all the time. Edit: Also, if you look into the meaning of the...

    How do you define character "weakness?"

    Lots of options, none of which is “inability to advance the story/game.” Some of these could be symptoms of that, but don’t address the main weakness disease.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Black licorice, ie, licorice, is one of those things masquerading as candy that only people old enough to have lived through a time when an orange qualified as a something treasured in a Christmas stocking could possibly think of as actual candy.

    That’s what I love about these supermarket avocados, man. I get older, they stay the same age.

    Today a poster made me wonder about and question their motives. And then 12 pages of posts later, The Prestige!
