    An answer to a question no one asked? A Wonka origin movie.

    So by extension, 90% of past things are crap (because they were new things). Which explains Hollywood on repeat, because only 81% of new old things are crap. Cycle that enough times and the worst Hollywood crapfest has more or less even odds to be a mega-blockbuster after about six generations.

    Aliens: Yes Or No?

    Dunno. Odds are there is certainly life out there, and most probably intelligent life. Visit here? Pffft. A species intelligent enough to solve interstellar travel would not be coming here to lurk in the shadows.

    No wonder the banshee is mad ... she didn't give permission to be touched there!

    Summon: MTG Experts!

    Right? I mean, I'd like to get all nine (I have 4 already from pre-release & Jumpstart) but whoo-whee that's nuts.

    Summon: MTG Experts!

    So I had a lot of fun at the Jumpstart event today -- very good format for a brand new player. Got some good rares to fill out my collection, and a Nazgul that was worth more than the cost of the two Jumpstart boosters. Plus some nice LotR dice ... who doesn't like dice, even if they are cheap...

    Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny

    I really liked the opening sequence in the cabaret, up to the escape by plane. After that it got a bit out of control. It's a clear #4 for me.

    Summon: MTG Experts!

    Yeah, I'm going to do a Jumpstart event this coming Saturday. Seems like the mix I want: fixed, LotR-only, plus I don't have to have figured out how to draft. And the decks are smaller.

    Summon: MTG Experts!

    I've been enjoying what I've opened and collected. Went to a pre-release; ended up buying a set booster box which probably netted me 90% of the cards in the base set. I'm not super picky about the various special cards -- just having all the characters in some form and enough cards to make some...

    Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny

    Just got back ... it was fun! Not, IMO, as good as the original or Last Crusade, but I liked it over Temple of Doom and Crystal Skull. So IMO a worthwhile entry into the series.

    Summon: MTG Experts!

    Ok, translate for the non-MTG informed here. EDH precon? Check land? Battlebond land? If I'm interested in mostly getting good (as in theme and balance, not power or rarity or whatever) Middle Earth-themed cards that can be assembled for casual games, what do you recommend based on what you...

    D&D Movie/TV Should the D&D Movie Been Serious or Not Called D&D?

    IMO it would have been better to have branded it "Forgotten Realms: Honor Among Thieves". But I think the humor was entirey appropriate.

    Worlds of Design: All Your Base

    In a cavern, in a canyon ... Because we're all about that base, 'bout that base.

    RPG Evolution: The Art of the Live Stream

    And lo, D&D has become classic Greek performance art. The student has become the master.

    Thought there was an art upgrade inbound for a moment there.

    There's A New D&D Cook Book Coming With All The Flavors of the Multiverse

    Not sure whether the Beholder eye soup or the Mimic Stew is the best opening course here (not really up for the House Slaad today). But I'm definitely getting the Tarrasque Steak, rare, with a topping of Myconid Spores, and a scoop of gelatinous cube for desert.
