That's all for June "blockbusters"? Yikes... That would be a big: None.

Oh heavens, just personal bias on my part. If it's even remotely related to the Others and something bad happens to them, I 'cheer' at home while I watch. My personal preferences and reactions scan just fine, thanks. Sure. And I'm going with that. We'll see.

I agree with you. That's how we do it. Don't take a -20? Follow the grapple rules. Take the -20? Follow the (rest of the) Improved Grab rules.

No. No. Not at all, AFAIC. (But that's probably just my ignorance talking. Though, TBH, I'd like to stay ignorant on this particular topic...) Separate, please.

Well, that is why I included the word "if": But, Ben and Richard did confirm they have a relationship with Jacob, that the "lists" came from Jacob, Richard knew the hangout of Jacob, etc. Walks/quacks like a duck... They'll have to have some cute little narrative contortions in the last season...

Not half bad. Proves to me, though, that the only episodes really worth watching are the premiers, finales, and recaps! (Especially with the two writers, who actually bother to tell you what's going on.) It also proves to me that Lost would have actually been a great series if it was only 4 (or...

Whoops on your part, then. I mentioned it, actually, based on that early preview that was shown somewhere in Texas (Dallas?), when Leonard Nimoy suddenly appeared and surprised everyone by showing the new movie instead of Wrath of Khan (which they were originally there for). It was featured in...

Normally I'd heartily agree with you... but if your OP title is actually, really true ("keeps killing PCs", emphasis mine), then some decisions need to be made. Improved Grab/Constrict does not "keep" killing PCs in our game, so I can only shrug and provide possible suggestions. No, Escape...

Obviously, since it was my quote, my vote is "Can sometimes ruin a film for me" (but heavy emphasis on the 'sometimes' - it can be effective if done well, as I do understand the intent to make you feel the action). Unfortunately, in the past couple of years it has been very poorly done in a...

Long since covered in my post. Sorry if you somehow managed to get prematurely stalled. But no need to worry yourself - I said I enjoyed it.

It would be a very unwise bet to make! It took 6 years for the Ruins of Myth Drannor box set to be released (1993) from the original publish year of the Old Grey Box (1987).

That would be pretty handy. What I would really like, though, is the ability to put myself on someone else's ignore list! Some people should really just not ever respond to my posts. :p Unfortunately I don't use the ignore list myself, as it simply doesn't work. AFAIC, a working ignore list...

Just: - D&D 3rd Edition (80% of time) - other RPG: first published 1990-1999 (I think; Fuzion for our futuristic anime game, 20% of the time)

And they don't threaten! If monsters really do "keep killing PCs", then the PCs need to prepare better. If it's a Rogue, then max out Escape Artist. If it's others, CQF. Losing their Dex to AC and no longer threatening is a major blow against monsters who Improve Grab/Grapple. When they start...

No, because all I saw were the Kelvin and Enterprise. Everything else flashed by far too quickly for me to notice.

I doubt it. According to the Supernatural story so far, Ruby was simply a human witch at one time long ago, and followed the 'typical' path to becoming a demon.

Just saw it and thought it was pretty decent. Now, first thing's first - the idea that it was better than Wrath of Khan is hilarious! (Heavens, it wasn't even as good as Undiscovered Country, AFAIC). That's a load of nonsense. I suspect such statements are simply the result of a desperate...

Uh... wow. You just covered almost exactly how I felt about the movie. Good stuff! I voted 3.5 stars, but that's probably too high. 3 stars is more like it.

It's too early for me to form much of an opinion, but I am very curious to see how it turns out. Definitely looking forward to more previews rolling in. It sort of sounds that it will play a lot like SCIV. Is this accurate?

Hmmm... I wonder what I, and others, posted in the original thread related to X-Men 3? Whatever it was, that. ;) It's been such a long time since I saw it - and with absolutely no desire to ever see it again - I can't provide details anymore. In any case, it stunk. :D
