Elen Page has a new movie about an all-girl gaming league where she plays a gamer girl trying to get over her traumatic gaming related memories from her past

Aka, Hollywood has finally provided a worse cause of PTSD than the chick from Gremlins

LOL

Back in the early 80s they tried to blame Dungeons and Dragons for violennce

There was even a movie with Tom Hanks where he went psycho from playing.

As Ive said before, Mazes and Monsters gave me the deep heebie jeebies when I watched it as a kid.

My mom bought me my first D&D books and I was affraid the movie would make her take them away

But she liked how it made me more social and improved my math skills

I was 15 when the movie came out

I am watching Svengoolie and the movie Them

Anyone watch Simon Pegg’s “The Truth Seekers”? On episode 2 and its fairly good

I have the series so far, haven't had the chance yet.

Its the kind of good cheeze youd expect from him

does any body know a good film about the Knights Templar or the crusades

Not off of the top of my head. But if you want a show Knightfall is a good one

There was this Christian audio drama that had two episodes about Dungeons and Dragons and it scared the crap out of me as a kid until I realized later that they had no idea what they were talking about

Adventures in Odyssey was a great show but they really dropped the ball there

I used to listen to the Adventures in Odyssey back in the day

I just watched this episode

She is 82 now

Is that Gilligan's island?

Yes

The best sitcom ever IMO

Watching Hamilton
Honestly, I like it but the casting *is* racist, no matter how much CNN denies it

It's a reminder that no matter what you do, your skin color makes you boring, undesirable, and evil if you are white and no, you cannot complain about it.

(Like straight up, this is general consensus online - having people color is superior to "old crusty white men.")

I understand reimaginings, but it does rub me wrong when people are treated as though they're lucky to be in a "POC role" when the inspiration was a white person

Honestly, Broadway is full of racism

So is Disney

I guess the only comparison would be The Magnificent Seven - it was based on a Japanese movie

In that sense, I'm okay with it

Then there are people complaining over Mandalorian episode 2.

Because of "mass gynecide"

What was A New Hope then?

Or Rogue One?

I find it a little funny that the same people who are pro-choice are complaining because Baby Yoda ate four eggs.

"But, but...Baby Yoda is PURE and GOOD, and not at all not a sparkling ray of sunshine and rainbows!!!"

I just love the irony of it
