    Dresden Files, who would you cast?

    Actually, Bob was fine. They just took a skull and gave it a bit more life by having Bob's ghostly image come out of it. Cinematically, it WAS the better choice. Having Harry sit there and do "Hamlet Skull Chatting" would just not work in the TV/Video medium. Some things work for TV, and some...

    Dresden Files, who would you cast?

    Yeah, SCIFI's movies are a JOKE at best, stunningly stupid and innept at worst. Just watched DRESDEN, thought it was okay...First episodes are always tough...espeically when there's a large number of preconceptions like this would have. I liked the RAVENMEN. Would have liked to seen Harry do...

    Robin of Sherwood DVD coming to the US?

    It is also on AMAZON. I remember watching these back in the 80's and have asked for them for my birthday. Boy am i glad I didn't buy that 'ingternational' set at Gen Con the last few years.

    Sci-Fi Channel's "Grendel": Quadruple Crossbow???

    Not sure that I recall that, as any mention of this movie sends chills down my gastric-intestinal tract due that HORRID, HORRID soundtrack...a God awful piece of 'noise' that was bad even for the music of the 1980's... LH is one movie that i would LOVE to see re-imagined today. As for the...

    playing a paladin in world that is not black and white

    There's ABSOLUTLY nothing wrong with setting up a situation for a player character and seeing how it pans out. That's pretty much how this game happens at every single moment of it. Dramatically speaking, it's the point of a game for those more concerned about ROLE over ROLL (by this I mean...

    playing a paladin in world that is not black and white

    Elf Witch, I think your Paladin is acting the right way. After all, in order to become a Paladin, your PC took oaths of loyalty and duty and such. Well, who did he make those oaths out to? I assume the King-In-Exile, and not the "Host King". At my table you would be playing it right. On a...

    McConaughey is Magnum?

    Heheheh.... He's certainly a much better actor then Macconnaghey (sp) and his performance would probably be GREAT, as the man can make reading the phone book interesting. However, he physically doesn't macth the perceptions and preconceptions that a magnum audience would have. Other then that...

    McConaughey is Magnum?

    While it is true that "Magnum" had a nod and a wink to the audience, and that Starsky and Hutch had funny or light hearted moments, these shows had equal (actually in my mind a bit more then equal) parts drama and darkness. And Magnum had some seriously dark moments. Any good show has some...
