    What nostalgic movie would you love to see remade/revisted?

    I'd like to see some movies updated with spiffier effects like War of the Worlds and The Day The Earth Stood Still. I'd also want to see The Seven Samurai remade, hopefully without Kurosawa rolling in his grave. However Episode I through VI remakes wouldn't be so bad either without so much PC...

    ILM employees sign NDAs regarding Star Wars Episodes VII, VIII, IX

    I'd think it'd be cool for him to voice Luke's opponent as well, who sounds remarkably like the Joker / Hobgoblin with a henchman sounding something like Solomon Grundy.

    D20 Future: Will there be a Menace Manual type of book for d20 Future?

    In defense of the Menace Manual, the players can hunt down attorneys and lawyers too. XP probably varies depending on how parasitic the specialty is. Just think of Wolfram and Hart. ;)

    Trying to be funny with insults

    Have you considered giving him a knife edge chop to the throat? :] Seriously tho, it might be he's an attention whore so not giving him what he wants will eventually get him to stop. But keep the Hasan Chop to the throat as a backup plan. ;)

    GI Joe movie theme song?

    You're looking for GI Joe: the Movie from 1987. It had Don Johnson as Lt. Falcon, Burgess Meredith as Golobulus, Sgt. Slobber as um... himself, er, Slaughter, etc. Anyways, it should be on DVD so maybe you can rip it into an MP3 or just get real lucky and find it. BTW, there was at least a...

    Fantastic Four movie: Dr. Doom announced!

    What about Jessica Alba donning the blue spandex to be Sue Storm?

    Are the core base classes enough to build what you want to play?

    Precognition of 4E power creep? All kidding aside, yes it can be done tho it'll be odd in most cases. Compare the viability of an Elric type character in 3E as opposed to the earlier editions. True he can be created in earlier editions but its far easier now. That being said, I'm rather biased...

    Firefly: A latecomer wonders what Fox was smoking

    I'm not really surprised about Firefly's demise. I remember the 'Save Brisco!' campaign way back when the Adventures of Brisco County Jr. was going to be canned by The Powers That Be. IIRC, TV Guide had it as their top pick for shows to save (as voted by the readers apparently). Heck, there...

    When did the wild west stop being cool?

    Time for PUN-ishment. Way back in the Old West, a dog limps into a saloon, his leg in a sling. Everyone in the bar gets dead quiet. The bartender asks "What can I do for ya?" The dog answers "I'm looking for the man who shot my paw." :heh:

    "The Simpsons" come out of the closet

    Flanders? But that'd probably give Homer another reason to dislike him tho he did kiss Ned awhile back. Yup, on the lips. In public at a football game IIRC. If it were the comic book guy, it'd be insult to injury. Worst. Person. EVER. Hmm. The Ah-nuld clone? Kent Brockman? Sideshow Bob...

    Campaigns you hope to run someday before you die

    How about a campaign of all halfling luchadors? By day, seemingly harmless halfling merchants but by night, masked wrestlers that defend the weak. Viva la raza! :p Er... ok. Maybe that'd only be me. I do remember being in a (2nd Edition) campaign where everyone had to be a short race: gnomes...

    Dungeons & Dragons: Wrath of the Dragon God! (Updated: Oct 09/05) Spoiler Free Thread

    Well with her, we'll find out what low light vision looks like. Oh wait. That already happened. Never thought it'd be so... green. :lol:

    Transformer annoucement soon at Comic-con!

    Unfortunately, according to IMDB.com, Mr. Latta is deceased (1994).

    What level should a paladin get a holy avenger?

    I think the holy avenger should be created sort of like how the samurai's daisho gets spiffed up in OA as in it becomes more powerful with time. Sacrificing XP would be more appropriate than gold IMO as well.

    World's Most Usless Spells

    Animate Bread Improved Flatuence Delayed Blast Flatuence Kobolds to Kolaches (with cheese is higher level) Magic Gristle Court Summoning I - IX (material component: a citation) Disco Lights (worse if combined with an Irresistible Dance) But you could keep the spells but change what they do...

    Farscape!

    Occasionally they also play maybe 6 hours of Farscape in a day (9 am to 3 pm Central I think) just like they'll play Battlestar Galactica, Star Trek, etc. Last week (?) they had the last few episodes of Season 3 with the first few of Season 4 on Friday.

    Feats allowing crits on non crittable critters

    First off to Gort, Klaatu barada nikto. :p Sorry I couldn't resist. Secondly when I started the thread, I had just returned from a game where many a possible crit were wasted against a fire elemental, an earth elemental and a bone golem dragon. Note that none has any vitals so my rogue's...

    Feats allowing crits on non crittable critters

    I remember a few feats similar to the ones in Masters of the Wild that allow those with Favored Enemies to crit the normally uncritable like undead, constructs, etc. But what about rogues or fighters? Any idea where I can find them? Thanks!

    Spiderman 2 Spoiler Thread

    The scene went something like: Hoffman: "How about Doctor Octopus?" Jameson: "Too corny." H: "Scientist Squid?" J: "Eee-yuck." H: "Doctor Strange?" J: "That's great! But it's already taken. I got it. Doctor Octopus!"

    Spiderman 2 Spoiler Thread

    Just cuz Harry found dear ol' dad's stash of exploding goodies doesn't mean he'll follow as the next Green Goblin / Hobgoblin. Harry may have hated Spider Man for murdering his dad but he wasn't superfond of him either. Quite possibly he'll get the cold slap of reality when it dawns on him that...
