    300. Just got back from Midnight opening...

    I enjoyed it a lot. First movie I've been in since the third Matrix where the audience literally broke out in applause at two points in the movie: When they finally killed the giant and when the queen killed the traitor politician.

    They Killed Cap!

    WWH might reinforce the pro-reg point, but that's not going to matter if Hulk Smash! all the pro-reg supers into so much gorey scenery.

    300 seconds of the movie 300

    Saw it at the midnight showing. Simply amazing and beautiful movie. And if you're complaining about the war rhino, seriously, don't. Spoilers below. The rhino charges the Spartans, killing a couple of Persians that get in the way. Then one of the Spartans puts a spear through it's eye at range...

    "The Dark Ages" on the History channel

    Man, the Lombards were scary.

    Looks fine to me.

    Players wanted! (You pick the campaign!)

    Number 3 for sure. Maybe umber 2.

    They Killed Cap!

    For mainstream Marvel to redeem itself, Thor and/or Hulk need to lay the high and mighty smackdown upon all the pro reg supes.

    They Killed Cap!

    Yeah, my only hope for Marvel now is World War Hulk.

    They Killed Cap!

    The problems people had with Civil War are numerous. A few big ones are writing characters completely different than how they have been written in the past (evil fascist Stark and Richards?). The fact that the pro-Reg side did absolutely nothing that a "hero" would do and somehow comes out in...

    Game vs. Story

    Creating a story. Which is why I don't play d20 anymore, but instead play story games. Zorcerer of Zo, Spirit of the Century, Don't Rest Your Head, All Flesh..., Savage Worlds, stuff like that.

    LoTR: One Book To Rule Them All?

    And this is where separate tastes come in. I've read the Lord of the Rings trilogy something like 6-7 times now, and enjoyed it every time. The words leap off the page and fill my imagination with wonder. Conversely, I've tried to read Vance's stuff on multiple different occasions and get bogged...

    [Feb] What are you reading?

    Just finished up both L.E. Modesitt, Jr.'s Magic of Recluce and Elizabeth Moon's Trading in Danger. Reading Moon's Marque and Reprisal now and then starting Modesitt's The Towers of Sunset. If you can't tell, I really enjoyed the first two books in each of those series.

    Vanguard:SOH

    My biggest reason for avoiding Vanguard is that it takes up 20 GB of hard drive space. 20 freaking GB!

    Are you ready for some Football?!? (NFL)

    I loved the Fed-Ex Ground one about how just because it's name was ground, it wasn't slow.

    Grossman really sucks

    Rhodes or Addai. Or even both.

    Smokin' Aces

    Saw it tonight and enjoyed it majorly. And Ryan Reynolds did indeed steal the show. Just like he did in Blade Trinity, just like the did in Amityville Horror. I think I like him better as a more serious character with funny moments. The leader of the three brothers was also hilarious during...

    When Not to Post on Messageboards

    Yeah, I came in here thinking the whole thing would be a joke thread about posting drunk. Good advice though.

    Trogdor turns 4

    And your lives are recorded in "mans". I haven't been to homestarrunner.com in forever. I need to fix that.

    Are you ready for some Football?!? (NFL)

    Yeah. You never have to punt. Less than two minutes left. Down by three. You haven't been able to stop them all half. This is the postseason, you lose and you go home. Play to win, not to contain the loss.

    Are you ready for some Football?!? (NFL)

    And the Eagles just gave up by punting.
