    100% agree. If you read his on writing book, that's basically the biggest takeaway, write such a believable character, place them in a situation, and the story should write itself. He claims he doesn't necessarily know what's going to happen, it just starts flowing. Little vignettes of such...

    I remember getting the CD audio version from the library at one point. I think that was the first time I had listened to it because I was going on a trip. I forget the name of the actor that narrated it but, and if I remember it's got a bunch of different people that narrate different...

    Man I haven't read that one in a long time. It is a really good book.

    Borderlands

    Almost as if a bunch of people that never played or know anything about the game are making a movie about it. Par for the course nowadays in Hollywood.

    The Fishing Thread

    I think it's probably still safe in most cases, just don't eat out of a body of water next to a major metropolitan area. I thought that the department of game and wildlife for most states will typically go out and do water testing on most bodies of water to see just what the state of the system...

    Kind of the same flavor. I use star anise in different things. My wife and I both really like that flavor and it lends itself well to certain dishes. When I do duck I typically use it in the poaching liquid if you want to call it that. The hot bath that you give it to tighten the skin up...

    For shame, a real cook ought to know what fennel looks like...😉 I say that though because it's actually a wonderful ingredient. I find I'm using a hell of a lot more even for things that aren't porchetta related.

    Alien: Romulus (2024)

    That's not really saying a lot as far as setting the bar for quality. How many horrible movies get greenlit for theaters nowadays? Most? I don't know maybe it's been a direct to streaming without having to do a bunch of advertising they could have made more money?

    Alien: Romulus (2024)

    Yeah that's pretty much my sentiments. That's why I'm saying are they out on a joy ride with their parents starship? It just seems so odd. I'm guessing it's probably a decision by the execs because more young people go to see crappy horror movies than any other demographic and they're trying...

    The D&D thread

    What's supposed to be the big difference with this Kickstarter and 5e? You probably know more about d&d than anybody else on the forum, and I have no early idea what this is supposed to be. I guess the point is I trust your opinion about it.

    Alien: Romulus (2024)

    I think it's supposed to be a space station not a ship. What if Michael fassbender be attached to it? If there was anything about the stupid movies Rideley that was noteworthy, it was fassbender's performance, and at least being a somewhat interesting character. I don't believe there's any...

    Never Let Go (2024)

    So it's evil white people that are coming after them, then maybe look like morlocks, but they also have thousands of feet of rope, hehe. Seems pretty God damn Goofy, but I'll probably watch it when it hits Shudder. I do like horror movies that are supposed to be a period historical deal.

    The Convert (2024)

    Reminds me of that Nick Nolte movie where he was a AWOL marine or something down in the Philippines during world war II, and ended up becoming king of some native tribe, and then they end up hunting down some rogue a Japanese battalion or whatever. Don't remember the name of it but it was a...

    Alien: Romulus (2024)

    Thank you pretty much hit the nail on the head, and that's what I was talking about earlier. I still wonder whether or not they're just going on a spring break tour around a star system with a giant spaceship. I know in the original film they're essentially space truckers, is this the...

    Alien: Romulus (2024)

    Was thinking about it and Aliens: Berserker could be a perfect movie. Where they're using convicts to go and clear out alien hives, but then they have that giant walking power armor, but it's not all it's cracked up to be. That was a really good series and I want to say I actually read that...

    Alien: Romulus (2024)

    Yeah there was a dark horse comic series on it but I think it's a little bit different then what you're describing as far as the novelization. It was a pretty good series. I want to say there was even a follow-up series to that story line.

    Alien: Romulus (2024)

    That's what I bitched about ad nauseam on multiple occasions on the forums anytime the Alien movies come up. You had such a wonderful universe that you could have converted into film, and you could have probably bought the rights easy peasy because they're cheap, great and stuff, but no I have...

    Do you think the android gets impregnated by a facehugger, and then suddenly there's a new alien that's a robot alien, and it's smarter and faster and can talk to you, and it does everything that fulfill the company's goals!?! Wouldn't that be a twist! Actually there was a dark horse comic...

    Alien: Romulus (2024)

    Alien 3 director cut is a good film. Yeah it's a different movie and kind of pigeon holed the franchise but I thought it was a good ending despite getting rid of hicks and newt. Was it what I wanted now but it's still a good film. Hell of a lot better then stupid Alien Resurrection.

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Guess a bunch of guys got a preview. I watched a little of this one and he's got it broken up in a chapters where you don't get spoiled by anything, but the first 5 minutesor so make it sound pretty promising. Just has a lot of previous footage that people have shown or seen already.

    I'll give it a shot when it comes to streaming, but it looks pretty terrible. Yeah it looks slick and updated and new, but why are there a bunch of kids flying a spaceship? Did they steal it from their parents and decide to go to the outer rim for the weekend? That guy's not a horrible...

    Trigger Warning (2024)

    That's an underrated movie that's pretty hilarious. When she's doing the prank call stuff it's still funny to this day. Probably the last movie I ever saw her in.

    How were the other two? Never watched the. That one looks okay to waste a couple hours on streaming.

    If she smokes, she pokes. Think my best friends dad told us that when we were in highschool. Cathleen Turner always had a sexy voice, probably one of the best. Unfortunately she aged like a wheel of bleu cheese.

    I think he's trained himself that anytime he has to take a dump one of their videos is getting posted. He just senses it. Maybe he and his wife had enchiladas earlier today, when those spiders since was tingling. It's like his useless superpower, no different than the man who can turn into...

    You fucker. I was watching something else and it was literally 2 minutes ago but that video popped up. I was like man 2 minutes surely I've got this one. Nope... You're still the fastest. Should at least be a pretty interesting video, I was wondering if some of their liberal tendencies...

    Yeah I guess that's the problem with trying to jar or can them or whatever just because they take up so much damn space. If you got 150 lb of potatoes that's going to be a whole closet or something. That's why I was wondering if you could actually stick them into a barrel or something and salt...

    You can brine / pickle them. I think that's big in South America. I wonder if you could throw them into a tub and salt them like you would do meat. Can't imagine that wouldn't work. Maybe another option would be to dehydrate them somehow after they've been sliced kind of like what you get...
