    Threshold iS Done...

    That's why I don't watch TV. I wait for the show to hit DVD; if it doesn't I haven't invested anything in it. Aaron

    Alternate Endings

    I didn't like that ending because I never bought the fact that he would have a home movie of that particular event. Blade 2 had a horrible new ending that didn't make a bit of sense and was filmed without Wesley Snipes involvement (they used a stunt double and digital tricks for the whole...

    star destroyer

    The Incredible Cross-Sections book is good. Also, the Starlog Technical Journal (I think that's what it was called) from the 80s shows the layout of the bridge. The bridge was the only interior shot of a normal SD ever seen on film. Aaron

    G.I. Joe Sigma 6??

    It's closer to the G.I. Joe you grew up with than the G.I. Joe you grew up with is to the GIjOE I grew up with. It was definately made for the US audience. They are trying to sell action figures to kids who grew up on Pokemon and other anime stuff. Aaron

    'WWE Smackdown!' Star Guerrero Dies

    Are both Raw and Smackdown tributes shows this week? Are they the same? If you missed Raw on Monday (and/or speak Spanish), I noticed that Telemundo is replaying it on Sunday at noon.

    'WWE Smackdown!' Star Guerrero Dies

    It seems that wrestlers are fated to die in hotel rooms. I got really sick in a hotel once and I can tell you that I never felt more alone. What is wierd is that just last Saturday, I got a Latino Heat t-shirt. It's the only wrestling related t-shirt I've ever owned. Aaron

    When an author kills characters...

    The death of Wash in Serenity is one of those things that really takes me out of a story. It brings to the forefront the fact that what you are watching is a movie. The fact that a character's survival is based entirely one the current career status of the actor involved. The characters that...

    This Weekend at the Box Office: 2005.11.14

    I used to think that the low box office was do to this years curious collection of sucky movies but now I'm not so sure. Consider that the D&D movie made 34 million and it had no stars, horrible reviews and lacked any sort of "date movie" appeal. This year both Serenity and Doom did about the...

    M&M 2nd Edition: Underwhelmed?

    I can but only to a limited extent. Hero 5th Edition, for example, is almost 400 pages long and only includes two paragraphs about creating your own power. Earlier versions, including the version of Champions I started with, didn't discuss the issue at all. All that didn't stop me from making...

    This Weekend at the Box Office: 2005.11.14

    It was a decent movie and I wasn't expecting much. It did, however, has some of the earliest and worst digital effects ever.

    Tuesdays are Supernatural!

    From the first scene I thought: New Developement + Oklahoma = Indian burial ground. My question was, if you find a pair of skulls sitting in a cursed burial mound, should you be picking them up and putting them in a box? Last episode they talked about how to deal with a body (the drowned kid's)...

    This Weekend at the Box Office: 2005.11.14

    I'm really suprised Zathura did so poorly. Especially considering how creepy that chicken looks. He certainly scarier than the clown-dude from Saw II. Aaron

    Best Rules for Automatic Weapons

    A year or so ago, I setup a chart comparing all the d20 autofire rules I could find. Its probably a bit out of date. http://www.freewebs.com/hedgehobbit/Autofire.html I was never happy with any of them. As for Reflex saves, I don't like the idea of using them to avoid attacks, especially for...

    'WWE Smackdown!' Star Guerrero Dies

    Eddie was supposed to win the heavyweight title tomorrow night to give Batista time to have minor back surgery. I've been waiting for that for a while now. Aaron

    M&M 2nd Edition: Underwhelmed?

    Thanks. I totally missed that sidebar. Never Mind. Thanks also for the Mystic breakdown. Magic is the one power I'll probably use the most. The line on page 91 "Choose one power feat ... You can aquire others as Alternate Power feats" makes is sound like you get your first power feat for free...

    M&M 2nd Edition: Underwhelmed?

    I saw that. But it isn't all the math. For example, the Mystic has 5 powers, plus a bunch of extras and power feats. Knowing that the combine cost of all that is 65 points doesn't help much especially since I try to figure out the cost of the same powers and end up with a different number. I...

    M&M 2nd Edition: Underwhelmed?

    I'm not sure what you mean by that. Page 33 has the normal d20 tactical movement rules. Unfortunately, I can't find how normal movement and super movement relate at all. Normal movement is given in feet per round and super movement is given in miles per hour. Is 10 MPH the top speed (using a all...

    So what happened to Battlestar Galactica?

    I can think of two reasons to release half-season DVD packages - 1-The retail price of two half seasons is higher than one full season 2-They are having cash flow problems and need to "cash in" the work they have already done. Why do you say she botched it? He didn't die and she kept Adama out...
