    League of Extraordinary Gentlemen - Who else could be in it?

    Well, almost everyone from Sherlock Holmes has either shown up or been mention. Less true for Dracula, but obviously a Helsing would almost be iconic. [B] Cowboy fiction from the period seemed to focus on using real names with fictional adventures, which makes things a little trickier...

    League of Extraordinary Gentlemen - Who else could be in it?

    Throwing out ideas is fine. An aged Dupin appears briefly in the first series, as a matter of fact. Poe's works are from the same period as Frankenstein, so would require a little aging but the exact time of the League is a little vague. Artful Dodger from Dickens makes a background...

    League of Extraordinary Gentlemen - Who else could be in it?

    Thanks for the comment, but i'm not actually talking about the movie. One of my ideas for a future campaign revolves around the idea of the comic and i'm trying to get ideas for who else fits into that period.;)

    League of Extraordinary Gentlemen - Who else could be in it?

    I'm all looking forward to the movie. And quite enjoyed the comic book. The classic cast is Mina Murrey (nee Harker) from Dracula. Allan Quatermain from the book of the same name by H. Rider Haggard. Griffin from the Invisible Man by H.G Wells.. Jekyll and Hyde from the book of the same...

    D&D is best when the magic is high, fast and furious!

    I thought that was from the 1980 animated Return of the King?:)

    Movie "Druids" w/ Chris Lambert......

    I thought Lambert was fine in Highlander. And his brief bits in Mortal Kombat were fine. But he's limited otherwise. An ex-gf was a huge Lambert fan so I got to see more of his movies than I'd prefer. I'll never forget a scene where he's supposed to be talking about how happy he is, but he...

    CatPrin! Dress me up! Please! Meow!

    I saw this on a online game I play now and then, but found it mentioned over at Nukin as well. CatPrin Sadly, the Engrish has been much cleaned up from the first time I saw it, but still...you have to feel sorry for that cat:)

    New Catwoman Movie

    I'm patient with this project. It's been through so many incarnations so far, until they actually begin filming I'm just assuming this is another idea floating around that may or may not actually happen.

    Movie "Druids" w/ Chris Lambert......

    I feel obligated to comment, it's not even bad in a funny or so bad it's good way. just painfully terribly unwatchable.

    I saw the MATRIX 2 thread SPOILERS ABOUND

    Interesting reading, but I'm not sure he refutes anything. Why doesn't Smith change the humans appearance as well as mentally taking him over? That would defeat the point of why he is doing it, infiltration. Why would the machines need to reload the Matrix if they had a new improved...

    [OT-NBA] NBA Playoffs

    Spurs 1, Nets 0. But I expect the Nets to make adjustments. This isn't the first time the team with the longer layoff came back a little flat. I'm still picking the Spurs though I'm hoping the Nets make a good series of it. Now if Indiana would only join the great coach firing spree and...

    Marvel Movies

    I'm the proud owner of a tape of the Dr. Strange movie from 1980 or so. Surprisingly decent, all things considered, because they focused less on the four color costumes and action. Blade was a fine action movie. Blade 2 a definite step down, enough so to make me wonder if I'd even see Blade...

    Stupid Plant Tricks (Plant Growth meets Woodland Stride)

    Hm..wasbn't trying to give ideas, but sure, sounds good.:) so far it sounds like it might work. At least no one is disagreeing.

    [d20M] League of Extraordinary Gentlemen -- UPDATED 12/4! NOTHING STRESSFUL GOING ON!

    LOl, so very true. Let's see. Captain Nemo. Notorious science-pirate and cold-blooded killer. Probably had the highest bodycount in the book. Hyde and Griffin are killers but Nemo has the technology to take it large scale when he feels it's necessary. He's also more intelligent and...

    Stupid Plant Tricks (Plant Growth meets Woodland Stride)

    I know the Druid Ability Woodland Stride allows the Druid to move through non-magical overgrowth. Magical vines, thorns, etc like Entangle or Briar Web effect the druid normally. On the other hand, Plant Growth is an instant effect that creates a large area of natural growth that slows...

    Ever play a PC of the opposite gender?

    Yep, I've done it several times. It's no big deal, though I know there are a few on the boards who have banned such things based on bad experiences. The only time it can be a problem is that my concepts tend to be fairly whole cloth. I can't simply change the gender and play the same...

    3 "Mothra" Movies on Sci-Fi, 5-31-03

    Yep, A T-Rex indeed. With that last movie they stepped right out of the Godzilla continuity, so seeing a Gojirasaurus could have been surprising. As so often happens with a trilogy, the first and third movies were far the best. I would not take the names used in the movies too literally at...

    3 "Mothra" Movies on Sci-Fi, 5-31-03

    Taped the three movies for viewing later. First impression of Mothra: The Movie. Lord, they still can't can't find decent voice acting for dubbing. Almost comically bad in spots.

    3 "Mothra" Movies on Sci-Fi, 5-31-03

    Rebirth of Mothra? Where did that come from...:) I've seen the first of the Mothra movies, I thought the creature had two heads and four legs, though. It's been a while though, I could have forgotten. I believe it was called Death Ghidora, not the same thing as the Ghidorah destroyed in an...

    [d20M] League of Extraordinary Gentlemen -- UPDATED 12/4! NOTHING STRESSFUL GOING ON!

    The plan worked about as well as some from the comic book, they seem to be on the right track.:)
