    Combat Cleric

    There's one other thing a high wisdom gives and that's access to higher level spells i.e. a wisdom of 14 grants you up to 4th level spells. But that's only if such things matter to your character.

    Favorite Movie Entrance

    Jet Li's entrance as Wong Fei Hong in Deadly China Hero aka Last Hero in China. Opening sequence of Jackie Chan's Police Story. An entire shanty town was built just so it could have cars driven through it. Also it has the original scene that Tango and Cash copied. Tequila's gunfight at the...

    Great moments of movie magic

    Many of mine have probably be said but I'll say 'em again. Phantom Menace - QuiGonn Jinn and ObiWan Kenobi vs. Darth Maul Army of Darkness - Ash's encounter with the Deadite, where he prevents the blacksmith from being squished. Army of Darkness - "Say hello to the 21st Century!" in the Death...

    Series you want to see on DVD

    Oh, I missed a few but it seems at least a few mentioned 'The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr." I have the season on tape but it's getting well worn. :( Also are a couple of other western shows. Legend - Richard Dean Anderson as the writer Ernest Pratt posing as his creation Nicodemus Legend...

    RPGs at the movies

    IIRC, there was also a week long (maybe 2 weeks) storyline where Jason finally persuaded his sister into playing. They spent hours making up a character but she died at the cave entrance when it collapsed. There's also the D and DeeDee episode of Dexter's Laboratory. His friends played a ranger...

    Van Helsing Trailer

    I couldn't help but think of Simon Belmont without his trademark whip.

    What shows are your "must sees"?

    I admit it. I'm a bit of a couch potato. Thus, I watch: WWE RAW and Smackdown! (especially Smackdown! because Rey Mysterio is one of my alltime faves) Samurai Jack Justice League Teen Titans Jackie Chan Adventures Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (FAR better than the old series and closer to the...

    Lord of the Rings films being remade in China!

    I have images of Legolas doing a slo mo John Woo sequence while feathering orcs and Aragorn using wire fu to defend Helm's Deep. Then all that'd be needed is the hobbits doing a Jackie Chan action sequence. :D

    Worst movies ever....

    I'm sure someone has mentioned this before but another really BAD movie is the blockbuster bomb Battlefield Earth. Some parts were okay but I just can't think of what they were. The end credits? Oh. How about The Cabin Boy? Ditto for that Tom Green movie, Freddie Got Fingered. Ugh.

    Worst movies ever....

    Yeah, them too. But isn't Topol the Vulcan from the Enterprise series? :) I think I saw Yor on one of those late night shows kinda like Elvira, Mistress of the Dark's show. I'm really tempted to add in a Godzilla movie, especially Godzilla's Revenge which excessively used stock footage to make...

    Worst movies ever....

    Was the music by Queen or sounded very close? If this is the one I'm thinking of, the background music reminded me of the "FLASH! Ah ah! He will save every one of us!" Queen stuff from the early 80's Flash Gordon movie (with Timothy Dalton).

    'Why I hate 'Lord of the Rings' '

    There's a very simple reason Elrond didn't destroy the ring when he had the chance: he hadn't been upgraded into Agent Smith yet. :D Seriously tho, I agree Elrond didn't want to take away the freedom of choice from Isildur, especially by an act of aggression, and the ring may have already...

    The Fastest Character Ever

    Ick. I just thought of two rather sadistic uses of superspeed. Supposing the speed demon has a passenger (especially unwilling) and after cranking up the speed, decides to slam on the brakes. Scenario A: Speedster hangs onto the victim, at the least causing whiplash if not snapping the neck...

    The "Favorite Simpsons Quotes" thread.

    Ok, this got longer than I expected. From the Stampy the Elephant episode I believe after hitting a deer: Homer: DOH! Marge: A deer. Lisa: A female deer. ---- Chief Wiggum: No, this is uh... 9-1-2. ---- After a whistle blows, Homer slides down the power plant into his car and sings to the tune...

    Eberron isn't Steampunk

    Seems kinda Jules Verne with a bit of H.G. Wells with a bit of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's 'Lost World' to me. Aren't they considered Victorian fantasy / early science fiction?

    Transformers or G.I. Joe?

    In the movie, Megatron inflicted mortal wounds upon Optimus via hand to hand combat, a shard of metal, an energy sword and a blaster pistol. A seriously wounded Megatron was dumped in space by his loyal lieutenant Starscream and Unicron had him remade into Galvatron, who promptly killed...

    The Oscar Buzz Thread! (Oscar Nominees Announced!)

    Unfortunately the awards that LotR won vs. A Beautiful Mind weren't the 'heavyweight' awards. If you were a director, would you rather walk away with Best Picture or Best Cinematography? YMMV of course.

    Cartoon Network's Clone Wars Overpowered?

    I know you can DL the episodes from StarWars.com (www.starwars.com/clonewars) but I imagine theForce.net has them as well.

    Cartoon Network's Clone Wars Overpowered?

    They're following in the footsteps of the Jedi lost in time known as Jack and his nemesis, the Sith sorceror Aku. Samurai Jack breaks all the rules if you're trying to stat him via d20 tho something like M&M might work. IIRC, someone did a writeup of him many moons ago.

    Justice League 12-6-03

    Yup. For those wondering: Ten - Cyborg Jack - Beast Boy Queen - Raven King - Robin Ace - Starfire Dunno who played the old lady on the one armed bandit. I'm thinking Maria Canals (Hawkgirl) since she was an uncredited heckler from 'War World'.
