    New Doctor to be announced Sunday

    I'm torn on Capaldi. I like the idea and the actor, it's just that he's had a fairly prominant role in both Fires of Pompei and in Torchwood: Children of Earth. I also found Freema Agyman a bit jarring after Doomsday and Karen Gillan was hard to recognize under the makeup in Fires of Pompei and...

    TRUE BLOOD--SEASON 6/Chapter7--In the Evening

    One thing I find interesting/strange now that I've seen a few episodes is how they handle sex and nudity on the show with the different actresses. I noticed again last night that while Anna Paquin is kind of no-holds-barred, when Deborah Ann Woll is featured she keeps her top on and she's shot...

    TRUE BLOOD--SEASON 6/Chapter 6--Don't You Feel Me

    Yeah, I've seen about five episodes ever and even I thought WTF is that about. Anna has sure grown up though, in a good way.

    So, SUPERMAN/BATMAN movie? (SDCC)

    Just go with Joseph Gordon-Levitt and be done with it. Bruce is "dead" so just continue from there.

    Getting into Doctor Who with my sons

    My advice: don't skip episodes. I introduced my nephew (who was 8 at the time) and he's hooked. However, our favorite episodes are often not the same. He loved the Moxx of Balhoun in Episode 2 and later the Slitheen while they were not on my list of assets.

    Your Gen Con Schedule - do you have one yet?

    Meh, they take generics. My schedule is rather packed, despite not getting jack of what I wanted and WotC/Baldman's utterly irritating pushing all resources in to the useless D&D Next hodge-podge marketing stunt. The S.O. is a scheduler so I filled in with tertiary events and have it on a...

    How Can I Make 4e Into A Gritty Survival Game?

    Honestly it's even easier. Just remove surges. Healing powers still restore the same number of HP, but you're now reliant solely on those powers. Spreading the damage across the party becomes a tougher prospect to do well. If you still want some HP restored during a short rest, either set it at...

    Who's pumped for Pacific Rim?

    That Would Be Awesome! Best extra ever if they did it as a short for the video release.

    PlayStation 4 or Xbox One or Wii U?

    None of the above. I'm boycotting the money-grabbing console race until they come out with a next gen of Pong.

    Season 2 of Copper and the final Season of Burn Notice are airing now, DVRing Ray Donovan also. Tried watching parts of a couple of episodes of True Blood but oy vay, I just can't take the schlock.

Jeebus, this makes Edition Wars seem almost tame. Propaganda 101: Do...

    Describe your non-RPG book collection

    We have six 6' x 3' bookcases, full, three of the 3' x 3' and various other shelves with subjects ranging from Astonomy to Zimbabwe. Looking at thee top-shelf below, is that the Matchbox Lamborghini Countach from the late 70s/maybe early 80s? I remember having that one when I was a kid. And...

    HUGE Doctor Who news coming tonight! [Spoilers]

    The same thing happened here, although from the opposite angle. Someone saved and then released the entire Dukes of Hazzard run on video. :p

    HUGE Doctor Who news coming tonight! [Spoilers]

    It seems weird to me that we haven't heard more about them. FWIW Amazon has "The Tenth Planet", "The Ice Warriors"(39) and "Moonbase"(33) and others listed for pre-order, but no release date yet. Amazon UK has "Doctor Who: Regeneration" which is a box set of all the regeneration stories...

    HUGE Doctor Who news coming tonight! [Spoilers]

    Only if there's an early scene of him herding nerfs with a princess looking on. Was not Matt Smith the first Doctor to be seen with a beard, even though it was only two scenes?
