I was actually a bit of an opponent of the prequels since as I thought you knew how the story would come out. And unless the journey was better than the destination it wouldnt work. And in EP I and II we got a lot of exposition with some cool action sequneces. Ep III probably saved the day; and...

Id have to vote for two as well- Luke vs Vader in ROTJ since its a climax long in the making, and it was so simply amazing to see Vader getting beaten and see what consequnences that might have had for Luke with the dark side. For sheer butt kicking tho- Darth Maul vs Qui Gon and Obi Wan. It...

It will be interesting to hear the audio commentary when the DvD comes out. However, given that Mace was supposed to be a sword master, I think Palpatine was seriously on the verge of losing. He lost his saber, and his lightning attacks were being deflected, deforming him. From a story point of...

I just saw it, Id rate it an 8. There are several things that seemed a little wonky to me, like the early departure of Dooku (loved the surprise on his face before he got it) and the somewhat inexplicable appearance of Grievous. Characters just came into this movie with little exposition. Of...

I think the ideas about helmets and such arent really true. Like the west, hairstyles changed and developed over time, for the same puzzling reasons. Usually because it looked good to them. I mean in the 16 the century, noble women in the court of Edo had blackened teeth because that was an...

Brother Martin enters from the kitchen area, carrying a glass with a clear liquid in it. The liquid has a sweet smell, noticable to all as he proffers the glass to James. "This should nuetralize any ill effects of the poison. Extract of Unicorn's Horn." The acolyte studies the woodsman. "But I...

The theme to Metal Gear Solid 3 Snakeater is a great Bond theme song :) Serioulsy tho, Id vote for You Only Live Twice

I ve been mulling over some Known World/Mystara stuff. Although they use Immortals, there seems to be quite alot of local or national gods. Of course, versions of OD&D and AD&D didnt have to concern themselves with things like domains and such, so alot of this was for flavor. What do you...

Well I wouldnt get too excited about the demos you see from E3 so far until its straightened out what is game footage and what is pre rendered. Sony has a way of really touting its amazing engine then the game stuff is less than what they advertsied. That said, the hardware looks amazing and it...

Well Ive seen the Xbox 360, specs for the PS3, and seen pics and general info of the Revolution. I must be getting jaded, since Im not that excited. I keep hearing about online play, wireless networking, high def, and the other buzzwords of this generation of tech, but I keep getting the feeling...

Brother Martin dismisses the townsfolk with a few kind words, then leads the party back to the church in Capendu. Confident that James is out of danger, the acolytes begin work on an antidote. You each await in the nave of the church. Seated amongst the pews, you are alone, able to relate your...

Graph-ola...

The pleas drive the townsfolk into an excited frenzy. They begin chattering amonsgt themselves. From their chattering, there seems to be no apothecary in Tres. Brother Martin comes forward to tend to James. "We have a few potions and herbs in the church." he says. "But I am unsure of what ails...

LOL so do I.

Yeah that was nice..very stylish. I had wondered how the hip hop elements were going to fit in and it was done very nicley thank you. I like how its faithful enough to the setting yet still anachronistic enough to be fun without destroying the samurai buzz. I really like the charcater styles...

Hhehe cant resist chiming in. Does nostalgia play a part in C&C? Id say yes, but not as a negative, as in thats the gimmick of the whole thing. It was developed as an alternative to what many see as the rules heavy excess of d20. Me I like d20, and d20 can do many things well especiallu in...

As Fatcoin and Yondo ready for any threat, Norgim attempts to aid James. The townfolk, meanwhile, press in chattering in a concerned manner. Brother Martin finds himself surrounded by the villagers; he cranes his neck to see James and gamely tries to protect the book as the crowd swirls around...

I actually disagree with the whole verdict of St Elmos Fire. That movie was about growing up, all the characters were obnoxious. They were all archetypes of a sort of 80s types but I dotn think it was necessarily indicative of the whole decade. Im more disposed to agree with Carl Zog. If you...

Worst...Finale..Evah... Soo disappointed. At least Voyagers Finale played on the characters and their histories with each other, even if it did sort of render their long journey home moot by breaking the rules to get home. Bit this, this had nothing. The Terra Prime wrap up was ok, but like so...
