Red Sonja didn't do what it could have, but it's not worse than the old movie so there's that. It seemed like they wasted money on fantastic monsters we didn't need, and should have spent it on better costumes and sets. Although I haven't read the Dynamite comic books so maybe it's a thing there that I don't know about. They brought out her old costume to poke fun at it, and really laid it on thick for too long, which was silly since the replacement costume is hardly better. Hey, Hollywood: The way to fix "sexism" in armor is not to change the armor, it's to give men the same treatment. You'll lose the sensual barbarian physicality of the world if you try to modernize it, and that's kindof the soul of characters like this. It's rated R, but there's barely reason for it. They cut away from most violence, there no nudity, and it's certainly not dark enough. But there's one scene where animals were left to die that had their horns cut off, like poachers taking Rhino horns, and that one scene is probably all that did it. Overall, glad I saw it, probably won't watch it again. 5/10

Finally got back to Castles & Crusades! I am unreasonably excited about this development.

@WhittersRichard Absolutely. Some guys like reading game books for their own sake, but that isn't me. The game is played at the table with my friends, anything I have to do away from the table is just like reading the instructions to a boardgame. It's the boring part I only do because I have to.

My random thought today… when looking at adventures, they often feel like you need to do “homework” to run them. We’re trying to make an adventure that’s fun for the game master to run… GMs should have fun too! I think that’s often missed in many games. Your thoughts?

@jpmccarthyjr But only if it's parents are not US citizens... citizens are just a clump of cells.

@DamndestMovies The thing is, we've never had a good Red Sonja movie, so it's not like it has a high bar to meet. But I thought Bassett did well with Solomon Kane! I'm keeping my expectations low, with luck it'll be fun, if the gods get really crazy maybe get close to another Solomon Kane.

The damndest movies you ever watched!
So. Millennium films will finally release Red Sonja after wrapping photography 2.5 years ago. Bassett, a solid director both before and after gender transitioning, leans left on social and environmental causes. But Basset has no writing credit. Lutz, lead actress...

I've been pretty absent from X for a month or two dealing with some things, and coming back to the TTRPG discourse is a little jarring. The negativity is kind of a drag when you've been out of it for a while.

@DungeonNoir I never had this book until just a few months ago, when I read it cover-to-cover for the very first time. Wish I got a chance to play it back in the day!

Man, I love Oriental Adventures! I was too young when reading it at a friend's house and didn't understand much.. course, I was already a 11 year old ninja by that point.

@WizardGoesBoom I love Alien RPG, but I definitely felt like it was over-produced. It is beautiful but just a little overboard. It was also weird having the paperback books fall apart, with the cover coming unglued from the binding very easily, when the rest of the quality was so high.

Can we agree that some TTRPGs are over-presented? Or am in the minority? I don’t want to pay for filler text and filler art of hundreds of pages. I want an RPG to get the point and give me charts, tables, and calculations. It doesn’t need to be fancy. Just give me the meat 🥩

I gotta rant a little. @AppleTV is the jankiest streaming service I've ever used. As long as you're a single person logging in on a laptop you're probably good, but it just doesn't work on some TVs because of weird codecs, it doesn't support separate profiles on some TVs, it gets stuck in two-factor login loops that never finish, logins can get to a Continue button that does nothing, sometimes it will make you verify the security code on your credit card just to login, or default your phone country code to "+1 American Somoa" and fail to recognize a valid phone number even though +1 is the same country code as United States, and so on. Every streaming service occasionally has a technical issue in playback, but only Apple has user-hostile processes with their own issues. Being from Apple I expect it to "just work". I'd think with all the money they're pumping into creating new content they could maybe spend just a little bit to clean up the mess.

@DungeonNoir Love Conan: Exiles! My daughter plays D&D with her friends on a heavily-modded Conan server, which is wild to me. I bought a 10-year old machine at the local university surplus for $25 bucks and put a cheap GPU in it, and it ran a great dedicated server from home for years.

@YoDanno On a rotary phone I can make a call by tapping the hook switch the count of each digit in the phone number, instead of turning the knob. There's a ninja move I used to be pretty proud of, try telling that to kids today.
