Destiny's Tears OOC Version 3.0

[Keia]

Keia's review of the Fantastic Four movie . . . possible spoilers[sblock]Overall on my personal scale of movies, it is a movie I would seen again . . . and it is a buy on DVD when it comes out. On a scale of current superhero movies I rate it as a slightly higher than Batman begins. Personally, I loved the characterizations, especially the Thing. The movie was an 'Ultimate' version of the FF, but other than the modernization of the plot, it had the feel of the FF comics from around 177-220 - (early Byrne era), which is when I started reading them.

It came off as a fanboy movie with a large number of references to certain people and places . . . which I'm okay with. For an origin movie they did a good job fitting everything in. From an editting standpoint - it seemed that a few scenes were missing, the plot and dialogue jumped a couple of times . . . but it wasn't overly noticable.

The chemistry reference that Reed makes is a play on the reference the Doom makes earlier in the movie, so I was okay with the wrong number reference. Plus, its a slang term for anything that a beginner should know - sort of like Rystil 101 . . . though I think that's an advanced class .[/sblock]

Simple explanation - I liked it. Solid 8 stars out of ten.

Rystil[sblock]Does the name Zarina ring a bell? Those present in the room include Glamour, Abdiel, Erila, Mhrazhar, and Kitty? Fedowin and Belle are otherwise occupied?

Just doing some Zykovian thinking out loud, feel free to comment
We have the gem now, the biggest direct threat has joined, hopefully . . . or it's a lie and I'm missing my sense motive. There's a plot there, how long will it take before someone realizes that the three forces set against each other have joined up . . . only Melody is truly aware of that. The monk might be a plant, it seems almost to good to be true . . . though maybe his ancestors told him to be there. The princess that was named before . . . Alire knows something more, or has more suspicions . . . has Zykovian heard of this princess? Where would be a good place to safeguard the gem until Abdiel can get it to his homeworld?

Enough questions for the moment [/sblock]

Zarina is the name of the bathhouse owner who was one of your favourite two suspects back when you didn't know which villa had the Jewel. You're right about those present in the room, though Fedowin and Belle will basically enter when Zykovian and Molpe are done to complete the set According to one of the first posts in the entire game:

I am Wei-Han, a humble initiate in the martiar art of Ryuko, and my noble Guardian Spilit told me that if I meditated on the docks today, the good spilits would bress me with a vision from the Cerestial Palace of the Four Winds. Now I understand that Byak-Ko must have been speaking of you!

Zykovian has the wrong bonus listed for Knowledge N&R in his character sheet, but when I rolled with the right bonus, he has heard of Tifalia--she is the Princess Ascendant of Amaranthia. While in theory this makes her the heir, its more of a milennia long position because Titania won't be dying anytime soon unless assassinated. Zykovian isn't really sure about the where-to-safeguard the gem thing--he's always been the hunter, not the hunted in this city

Keia,

Zyk's lucky Molpe didn't slap him back awake there... [J/K]

 

[Keia]

Yeah, I had to figure 20 hours was gonna put him out . . . or almost out. We'll see what anyone else in the room does. If nothing by morning, he'll probably just go to sleep.

Long day and all of that. If she slapped him, he'd have been even more embarassed that he currently is.

It is morning.

Long day and all of that. If she slapped him, he'd have been even more embarassed that he currently is.

Who knows, him falling asleep on Molpe might have saved his life.

But what a way to go . . .

But what a way to go . . .

True enough. If you like you can ask RA for a picture of it.

RA [sblock] Yo, how far did Molpe travel before she got stopped. it didn't seem like she got far but I would like to make sure. [/sblock]

She was stopped basically right in front of the villa.
