    Worn out scenes

    Or seeing a herd of cattle get pumped full of lead by a bipolar bank robber and then run over by the pursuing police vehicles. "COWS?! I hate cows worse than I hate coppers! TAKE THAT, BESSIE! Hahahahahahaha!"

    All the Different Types of Orcs

    Thanks for the input! :D I've been meaning to update this list and all the others for the longest time... I'd update the list with both the new subraces you've mentioned and those from other sources, but my home computer's haywire ATM (I'm typing from a library). Thanks for bumping the thread...

    The D&D Movie Liker's Thread **SPOILERS**

    I meant that thing Profion summoned toward the end. It looked like a small (maybe 1/4 the size of a normal osyluth) bone devil.

    The D&D Movie Liker's Thread **SPOILERS**

    I thought that the D&D movie wasn't a complete waste of film in that it was a step up from teenage slasher flicks and other bottom-of-the-barrel movies. In the end I was left seriously disappointed. It's not a movie I can enjoy, or even sit through again. That said, there were a couple of...

    How many Supergirls...

    That was the Matrix Supergirl from the pocket universe. I don't remember why, but she merged with Linda Danvers, which is how Linda became the next Supergirl. I'm not really sure if we need another Kryptonian flying around, but taking the character for her own merits, I think she's okay. (She...

    Movies screaming for sequels.

    Oh yes. The Passion of the Clerks. My only real concern is that whatever studio Smith makes it with will make him clean up the language and subject matter. I'm not normally fond of trash for its own sake, but a sequel to Clerks just wouldn't be the same without it. I also hope it's filmed in...

    My grandmother has died

    Like others here, I lost my grandmother in pretty much the same way, too. You'll be in my thoughts, Boz...

    Happy B-Day J. R. R. Tolkien!

    Considering that D&D has its roots just as firmly in Robert E. Howard as JRR Tolkien, I'd probably still be enjoying the same hobby; it would just look very different without the good professor's influence. Happy birthday, Ronald. Hebithon antel ned guren.

    Green Lantern Rebirth (Spoilers)

    Man, I loved that issue of JLA. I've been trying to get a Sandman-hooked friend of mine to read it for ages, but he thinks that DC beyond Vertigo and Frank Miller is universally childish. Sheesh. I remember their talk. "You will surpass him."

    Green Lantern Rebirth (Spoilers)

    Nah, Despair isn't really malicious like that. In fact, she's often a rather sympathetic character. Besides, I think DC has some kind of unspoken agreement that no one touches the Endless mythos but Gaiman, and though I know Geoff Johns has worked bits and pieces of The Sandman into JSA (Dream...

    Green Lantern Rebirth (Spoilers)

    I'm kinda ambivalent about Hal Jordan coming back. It may have been inevitable, it may not. I don't know. Truth to tell, I like all the Green Lanterns (well, except Guy...), and I think that as long as there's at least one of them flying around, things will be fine. I've been reading GL:Rebirth...

    Identity Crisis #7 TIME to be Spoiled!!!!!

    Legion of Super-Heroes in a past reboot, which admittedly is out of continuity. Even so, she's been portrayed as rather sinister in the mainstream DC universe (I think in JSA), though nout outright evil. Even so, her character's been screwed over pretty badly, having been totally removed from...

    DUNGEON Magazine Monster Index!

    Huz-ZAH! My avatar is pleased. I may now die happily.

    Identity Crisis #7 TIME to be Spoiled!!!!!

    I stand corrected. :) And he did do a good job of it, at that.

    Identity Crisis #7 TIME to be Spoiled!!!!!

    Um, sometime in the late 80s I think. She and Doctor Midnight (not Mid-Nite) were both killed by Eclipso. Man. It sucks to be a female hero in the DC universe. You might get killed (Hippolyta, Wildcat, Midnight, Donna Troy, Sue Dibny), maimed (Batgirl), turned evil (Raven, Amethyst, Jean...

    Identity Crisis #7 TIME to be Spoiled!!!!!

    I remember that, when Hippolyta went down against Imperiex in "Our Worlds at War". I'm glad she died as a hero, but it seemed like such a waste. Still, I thought the scene with Wildcat, Flash, and GL of the JSA reminiscing about her was rather touching. It hit home the family element of the group.

    Creature Catalog now in Dragon Magazine

    I'm not sure how it would work stats-wise, but it should be able to somehow possess or transpose with a humanoid, like the priest in the story. Type should be Outsider, since it's some kind of fiend from beyond the stars.

    Movie quotes- broken record or inspiring

    I'd say it can go either way. Like the others said, it's all about timing. If you go around saying "Hasta la vista, baby" day in and day out, it gets old fast, but an "I... am your father" at the right moment is gold, Jerry, gold. Personally I don't spout movie lines too often, and when I do...
