A place to talk about movies--Old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

I played v:tm because it was the only rpg we ever saw the ladies buying. Oddly enough, this did not help a whole lot when I was 12/13.

Mostly we used it to take out our anger on policemen - we'll show them for making us leave move along! We'll kill every cop in imaginary Chicago!

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

I played V:tM a little bit because it was pretty innovative to people who were only experienced with D&D and Shadowrun. A friend of ours got introduced to it in college and started running a game when he came home for the summer. The White Wolf game the ended up truly hooking me, though, was Mage. V:tM more or less got dropped by our group once it came out. That and most of the other V:tM players we ran into were rather pretentious, so it kind of soured the game for us.

What's amusing to me about Kindred: the Embraced, though, is for all their dry exposition involving stuff from the game, they also changed a lot of the stuff from the game for no apparent reason. (Well, the reason for the addition of vampires having sex was pretty obvious, if not artistic.)

I was irritated by the changes in kindred: the embraced, until I realized the show was not very good, and if I complained to anyone they would know I watched it.

Which is something I learned complaining about movies, making this the closest to on topic I have ever been.

Well I survived K:TE intact.

Warmed to it slightly by the end. Then tried to remember where I'd seen Mark Frankel before and wondered why I hadn't seen his gorgeousness since.

Imdbed and discovered that he is dead. Car accident. Kind of made my heart go clunk.

I'm at that age where people I admire are turning out to be younger than me and dead. Weird feeling. Who would have thought that 45 was old? Scratch that. I remember when I thought 45 was old. t /codgering

My memory is tickled by something I can't quite remember...maybe it was a miniseries very similar to Kindred...earlier, maybe 80s. Cop vampire (not Forever Knight) or other. I imdb Masquerade but I can't find it. Did I dream it?

t snerk I actually had a friend who loved the show (we worry about her sometimes. She also thought Twister was the best movie ever the summer it came out. I love her dearly but I will never understand her taste in entertainment) and was incredibly disappointed when she actually tried to play the game that it didn't work like the show.
