That sounds fun. I like the Harry Potter books. I just don't like the movies. Yeah co-op games are fun. The kiddo and I play co-op video games pretty frequently too.

Re: How do you approach adaptations?

An interesting sidebar (maybe); I've always hated Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings films since they came out when I was curious to see them. I did not read Hobbit until 2022 and the meaty Lord of...

Tonight I'm going to try to watch Attack the Gas Station! (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0262246/?ref_=wl_t_7). It'll be easier to find time tonight than it was last night, although I am unsure if the...

Re: No-Spend February - Part Deux!

Is it bad I ordered a cleaning gel for my computer? The keyboard is all gunky and I've tried other cleaning methods, and they aren't working, so I want to see if that gel works. It wasn't much and it...

I have begun to question the need to adapt a book into a film when there about sixteen thousand things that'll be missed in the translation, and since I almost always end up preferring the book no...

Yikes. Sucks he died. Yeah I'm in a consistent D&D group put together by the local library, which I thought was cool they do that. I think there are three game D&D groups that meet every week. I...

Those sound fun too. I do enjoy board games as well. I just prefer the table top games.

Re: Things You Just Found Out/Learned Recently?

I learned that George A Romero wanted to remake Season of the Witch because, as he stated, the cast and crew couldn't do a lot with what they had money-wise, and he felt it was lacking the oomph he...

I was thinking of watching an Italian horror film; either Bird with the Crystal Plumage or Cat O' Nine Tails. Oddly enough today would have been George Romero's 84th birthday if he were still alive,...

Re: Rate The Last Movie You Saw

I watched The Train 1964. It was kind of disappointing. Not because it's bad; because it isn't great. I like the movie. I just hoped for more. The film just didn't resonate with me. Burt Lancaster...
