I for one cannot wait to see the Galadriel-Celeborn-Sauron love triangle. It's going to be so exciting. Will she go with Team Jacob or Team Edward? We could power a small city with the force created by how many times Tolkien is turning in his grave.

There are literally thousands of players who you do not need to 'force' to play classic OSR D&D, they're more than happy to do it. If your friends have to be 'forced' to do it, your friends are shit gamers. Actual gamers love to try out and embrace new things.
Spoiler alert: he skipped key load bearing rules, couldn't escape his prejudices, and learned nothing from the experience.

The guy's from Jersey. Hire Nicholas Ralph for the role, get a real Highlander.
Karen Gillan, who is a Highlander, says Henry Cavill's Scottish accent in the Highlander reboot is absolutely "bang on" She also says he was so dedicated to authenticity, he was even correcting people who were mispronouncing Gaelic words (via @Collider)

Here in the UK, it's clear that safe, sane and consensual sex between adults is now an act of open rebellion against the nanny state, so - if anyone out there would like me to choke-fuck you until you call me 'mommy' throw me a comment in reply :)
None of these is harmless, doctors and IPV experts have warned that strangulation can never be done "safely" without serious long-term health risks, while the eroticization of pedophilia and familial sexual abuse has consequences on real-life rape culture

Critical Roll. Bing Bang Theory is, mostly, for normies to go, "look at them nerds!" in the same way Will and Grace was there for normies to say, "lmao look at them gays!" The cultural shit is thrown in haphazardly for color. Critical Roll is a bunch of actors playing what was previously the loser introvert game for nerd boys who got bullied in school for being loser introvert nerd boys. They hammed it up and made it more free flowing with an emphasis on larp over crunch and it led to normies getting into it during Covid. Those few who remained after the culture shock that D&D tends to involve quite a bit of theory crafting and build making ultimately pushed for that same Critical Roll experience and the trimming down of the grit in world building. It isn't exactly shocking that the Critical Role TTRPG will match this "low crunch" and "low rolling" aesthetic, which isn't exactly a problem unto itself, but rather a sign that the Covid tourists should have considered a look at the thousand and one pre-existing TTRPG's that would have fit their desire. You know, before pushing to not have to roll to save so their "Be gay do crimes" tiefling didn't die due to their shenanigans.
What did more damage to TTRPG's? Critical Role or Big Bang Theory? 🎲

TIL There are die-hard younger fans who are CONVINCED the Star Wars Prequels (Episodes I–III) were brilliant, and all us "boomers" (they mean Millennials, mostly) didn't grok the vision— I saw Ep1 twice. It was AWFUL. It takes more than flashy sword fights to make a good movie.

This is legit hilarious because he can literally not even run like this because he's so close to dying from old age. Like, not a tiger wouldn't even kill him because predator animals can tell when their prey is sick and will infect them with disease.

You can really tell that The Last Airbender was made before Tumblr while Korra was released when the site was at its height because the Avatar fandom will whole-ass say shit like "Korra is worse than Hitler and destroyed everything" even to today and not think its at all crazy.
‘Avatar’ creators Michael Dante DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko say much of the hate toward Korra stems from misogyny and homophobia, pointing out that fans blame her for losing the past lives but don’t hold Aang accountable for the Air Nomads’ extinction: “They hold Korra to a different standard. I think there's a lot of misogyny and homophobia. The idea we hate Korra is not true."

You can really tell that the Avatar shows were just baked in the oven of Tumblr because their fandom is just the fucking worst.
Avatar endings were usually my favorite part of the show. Hello, Paramount, WTF is this sound?? 😭

Just watched the first 3 episodes of Avatar: Seven Havens. Oh my god, the music! It's going all-in on a retro-futuristic soundscape, with synths and everything. Totally Vangelis sound! It's such an odd choice, and really gives the story a 'new, uncharted alien world' vibe!

Jackie Chan's use of physicality is not only excellent for martial arts and stunts, but his sense of timing and performance makes his comedic work just totally fantastic.
Nobody turns a clothesline into a high-stakes escape disguise like Jackie Chan.

The first 'proper' article on my #VampireTheMasquerade blog is now up, on my substack at cainitecommentary.substack.c… discussing the importance of music in classic World of Darkness; how song quotes in every chapter made this the go-to game of the alternative generation.

Several days ago I posted stating that I was receiving harassing DMs from Ryan King, owner of The Warp hobby/gaming store in Havant, England. I didn't give a lot of context to what was happening there, but I really feel like I need to. #Warhammer ㅤ #WarhammerCommunity

But what genuinely bothers me is how unnecessary all of this was and how genuinely disturbing the guy's behaviour became. So, 10/10 introduction to Warhammer. Would not recommend. That's, hopefully, barring him attempting to escalate the issue again, my last word on the topic.

I won't be accepting comments, please do not DM me about it. I'm making this post sharable if people want to, but as far as I'm concerned that's the end of the matter.
