    The D&D thread

    I'm a player in a Strahd campaign that has just started. First time we are using Foundry while in person, DM is using resources from this guy you might know of. https://www.patreon.com/BeneosBattlemaps Even when we don't have a battlemap up, just an image for the current location is helping...

    Bosch

    Taken as a regular season, this was ok, not great not terrible territory. Taken as a series finale - Was really hoping for more out of those last few episodes as a proper send off. Main actor has a willingness to continue in some form, we'll see if anything comes of it beyond his credited...

    The Long Walk (2025)

    The Life of Chuck gets wide release June 13 The Long Walk releases September 12 The Running Man on November 7 I am quietly hoping they are all great adaptions, since each director has been carrying a torch for their movie (or so they say in interviews).

    Bad Monkey

    Glad I gave this one a go. I thought it was decent after 1 ep but ended up liking it more and more as it unfolded. Good writing, payoffs, call backs. Bring on season 2.

    The Bondsman

    Agree with all the above. There's enough here to like, but a whole lot that could be done better. It's also the kind of show where in the middle of watching it, I became aware I was doing it wrong by giving it my full attention. It's like they expect you to be on your phone the whole time, and...

    The Pitt

    Well I'm glad I ended up being wrong about shooter stuff, I'll put it down to being conditioned by other shows convenient writing. You're right, they slowed it right down and were practically talking to the audience through the Slowmo doctor being amped up then crashing out. I thought it added...

    Megalopolis

    He’s taken risks before and had it pay off, I’ll give it a shot. For anyone that has never seen the doco on making Apocalypse Now it is just as interesting as the movie. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0102015/?ref_=ext_shr_lnk

    Lion King = Hamlet, but with lions Mufasa = Godfather Pt II, but with gay lions You heard it here first folks.

    The Iron Claw

    This was well done and deserving of praise. It keeps the fights interesting by making you question if people are hurt for real or just acting hurt for the routine. As a drama first and a wrestling movie second it holds your attention with a deft touch. I needed tissues twice towards the end...
