    Escape to the Movies: American Sniper - An Empty War Film

    Its kind of a fallacy to say that because he has acknowledged political biases that he shouldn't review movies that have an opposing or even not complimentary political message (in this case the film refusing to take an overt political stance is in opposition to Bobs strong anti war/propaganda...

    More Suicide Squad Casting: Will Smith as Captain Boomerang?

    This cannot be true. There is no way Will Smith is going to be Captain Boomerang. I mean come on its Will Smith playing Captain Boomerang. Someones leg had been pulled I think.

    The club is called Verdant, Vertigo is the drug.

    Actor Guy Pearce Shares Thoughts on Iron Man 3's Mandarin Character

    How does that help him. Does the FDA suddenly approve Extremis somehow because the president has changed? The only hold that he seems to have over the VP was that he had a relative that was an amputee who he would want to give Extremis too. But they never solved Extremis blowing people up. If he...

    Actor Guy Pearce Shares Thoughts on Iron Man 3's Mandarin Character

    You see I liked the Mandarin before the twist, I thought he was an interesting villain and was played really well and while the twist was funny it unfortunately ruins the character in the process and I thought that it made the film worse for it. Iron Man 3 was the most plot holed movie though...

    Halo Theme Song Composer is Suing Bungie Boss

    Without cause I think is the legal term meaning that he wasn't fired for poor performance or misconduct. Without cause is not the same as without a reason. Since he was fired "without cause" I imagine it means that he would be entitled to all his previous unpaid benefits which is why he would...

    U.S. Army Wants to Replace Soldiers With Robots

    So have we beaten the "machine uprising" joke to death enough. Can we have a story now about AI or robots that doesn't mention robot overloards or Skynet because its really stupid and has been done to death, literally every story about these subjects, get some new material guys.

    Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Review - Episode 9: Repairs

    I have not been keeping up with Agents of Shields so I haven't seen this (and I do plan on catching up at some point so I didn't read the article, just the start to get a gist if the episode was good or not) but regression to the mean really should not apply like this. You can absolutely just...

    How One App Hopes to Take Tabletop Gaming Digital

    This sort of thing interests me but I'm not a fan of D20 and it doesn't look like any of the games I play are on their radar so there isn't much point in me funding this project.

    Roleplaying The Old Republic

    Im sorry but what Yhatzee said is a load of rubbish. Most pnp games take place in pre existing universes with pre existing rules. Even in DnD games with a homebrew campaign setting often share loads of conventions with other DnD games. I can describe a situation from a PnP game that could...

    Trailers: Warhammer 40,000 Space Marine - Mark Strong Interview

    Cadian pattern armour is widely used across the Imperium as its functional and easy to produce as well as being well regarded since the Cadian regiments are amongst the best known in the Imperium. It is also possible it is a Cadian Regminent on the planet. Also we dont as far as I know have a...

    Another Decade of Tabletop Gaming!

    Just going to mention that the decade ran from 2000-2009. The decade is determined by the second last number, no one called 1990 the 80's. On a more related note that was a very bizarre article one which even as a commited RPG playing nerd freaks me out. I dont play DnD though so I dont think...

    Violence & Viscera

    http://www.windsofchaos.com/?page_id=19 We use these charts in our WFRP game which does alot of the work for you. Combined with our modified damage system means that any good hit can result in a critical result. Last night my GM stuck me in an encounter with an Assassin, the assassin was...

    Violence & Viscera

    In our ongoing WFRP campaign only one player has died due to combat, although that has nothing to do with our GM not trying. He has put us in several situations and up against many opponents that he thoughts would kill us its just so far most of us have avoided it. The character in question...

    Judgment Day After Day

    We tend to play our games with a shed load of house rules either pulled from various sources or designed by us to usually either smooth things over or to increase the immersion. I think its important to try and match the feel of the event you are trying to emulate while keeping the rules...
