Sorry about your cat.

And if you cast Hugh Grant in a movie, even if he's a villain, you should definitely be writing him charming.

Thank he was a total sweet heart and cutie pie.

Yes. It'll be sad to see him become a true villian.

So the Book and Movie is actually a D&D and Fast and Furious crossover?

The Fast and Furious franchise has always been D&D with cars.

The Fast and Furious franchise has always been D&D with cars.

Maybe someone should release an RPG version called Fasts & Furiouses.

After reading more of the Junior Novelization, I have to cut some slack to the writer. I think they were given an impossible task. Take the script and dialog, and write it like it's a book for kids. That's hard to do, condensing a movie into a kid's book, while keeping true to vocabulary that isn't kid-friendly to read.

It's still clumsy, but I don't think it's fair to put that all on the writer. Some, sure, but not all.

Druid's Call was really well done as well, very touching. I don't know what makes the novel young adult, that just seems like PR jargon.

I'm going to wait for the movie instead of reading the junior novelization, all I need to know is the plot is good.

I read both novels between last night and today, my cat had to be put down to day so I wanted a distraction so I wouldn't spend the whole say crying.

I am so sorry about your cat and my heart goes out to you. I've been there and it's excruciating.

Thank you, on top of that my friend & co-worker's dog who I was close to (dog sat for) had to be put down today, so I'm in a bad place right now.

March blows chunks.

Bring on Spring.

Just finished the first story in the D&D prequel comic. It's pretty terrible, quality-wise, so much so that I skipped the second story, about Xenk. Not recommended.

I think producing this kind of content definitely falls under “bull$#!t jobs”, but to also do it and not have it be at least passable just makes it so much worse.
