Lost Room

I can't believe that no one is talking about this. It was a good entertaining two hours. And we have two more two hour episodes left. It is RPG campaign in the making!!

I did. I started the original thread that you overlooked:

The second part was really good. I like the way it is shaping up.

Hey Crothian as usual i agree with you. This has been the only mini series in some time that has kept me glued each night. I really like it and, ironically, it reminded me of the theme for my next campaign.

For a sci fi mini series it has a great cast. Almost all the actors I know from somewhere else and like. Sci fi usually seems to get actors that are not so good, so this really makes the mini series great. Also, the pacing of the mini series is about perfect. I'm eagerly sitting and watching it for the full two hours each night. Again, sci fi movies and mini series tend to not have good pacing. And then there is the sheer creativeness of the whole show. It is not terrible orginal as LrdApoc noted it being a lot like the old Friday the 13th series. But they have really done a very good job with it. I really cannoit wait till I get home from gaming and can watch how it ends.

When I saw the commercials I planned on blowing this off. But I read some good reviews in my newspaper and decided to at least give the first episode a try. You're right, the pacing is good, there's some logic to it and it doesnt stick to some of the cliches IE "my best friend doesnt believe me, now let me spend 45minutes trying t oconvince him". Instead the guy showed his best friend in 10 minutes of the show. It was just a little different thing that I liked.

ON a sidenote, I dont care what anyone says, the fanning in this episode is a clone. A clone I tell you.

Lost Room is the libretto for my upcoming Call of Cthulhu game.

I'm not just "lifting" elements, I'm stealing the **** out of it.

This miniseries rocks! It's a d20 Modern game in the making. The Cabal, the Order of Reunification, the Collectors? All great prestige classes or advanced classes. The Finder (asian woman in the dry cleaning store) is also pretty cool. I am really loving this show, and hope they turn it into a regular series.

By the way all three episodes repeat on Dec. 17 according to the Sci-Fi Channel schedule online.

Episode 2 repeats today, before episode 3, starting at 7pm.

I'm not sure I want it as a regular series. I don't want it to be an "item of the week" show. Nor do I want it to be "hunting for his daughter show". I'd hope they do a different focus if it becasme a series.
