  1. I ultimately used the criteria of how often I'd played the game; ie games I came back to again and again. Still had around~30 games though so then had to make some hard choices.
  2. I'm not sure its the "worst" version mentioned earlier (IIRC Kitt's version is the original), but I couldn't resist. Its Chekov's gun in internet form - you mention it on the first page it has to happen on the second. I actually don't like Santa Baby as a Christmas song, to be honest. Its not a bad song, but not a good Christmas song.

  5. I can't stick to songs, gotta have some music compositions as well (eg The Dance of the Sugar-Plum Fairy).
  6. I was reading reaction to the 'Arrow-verse' crossover Crisis on Earth-X (which personally I thought was a lot of fun) and found myself weirdly bugged when a poster made the statement that the original Freedom Fighters characters were purchased at the same time as DC bought Fawcett Comics characters. 'Busy' Arnold sold his Quality Comics stable to DC in 1956; DC continued publishing GI Combat, Blackhawks, Heart Throbs and The Three Musketeers. They revived Plastic Man in the 60s and then The Ray, Black Condor, Phantom Lady, the Human Bomb, and Uncle Sam in the early 70s for CRISIS ON EARTH-X, one of the annual Justice Society - Justice League cross-overs as the Freedom Fighters (which then led to a short-lived late eponymous 70s comic). Also in the 1970s they brought back Quality's Kid Eternity and then in the 1980s they revived Quality's Midnight, The Red Bee, Manhunter, Firebrand, The Jester, Magno, Miss America, Neon the Unknown and The Invisible Hood. The 1980s also saw the end of the longest surviving Quality Comic, GI Combat. By contrast, DC didn't purchase the Fawcett Comics characters until around 1994 or so (from IIRC then owner Ballentine). Any appearance prior to that date was from a license DC had. The only connection between the two companies or their characters was that in the 1970s a DC story made their licensed version of Fawcett's Captain Marvel, Jr. the brother of Quality Comics character Kid Eternity (who had, prior to that point, not had a name and no relations outside of a grandfather killed by Nazis). And then I realized it was weird to be bugged by somebody getting such minutiae wrong, and probably weirder that I know all of this **** to begin with.
  7. I guess its more than the dice that's haunted...ooooOOOOOOO0000000OOOOOOOOOoooooo
  8. Have the same thing on this end as well.
  9. Its not aerodynamic enough to serve as an airplane, and not tasty enough to serve as food?
  10. Can't you take a screenshot of your character and turn it into a portrait I'd you really want this?
  11. John Horne's A Year in Fiji indicates there were some form of firefly there in ~1876. Now, or not, I dunno.

  13. Perhaps I'm wrong (and its probably been suggested before as I only skimmed the thread) but it seems to me that perhaps the idea is that if your PoE was picking a lot of "fighting" talents for your druid, you were already creating a Fighter-Druid multiclass and that idea is being codified into the multiclass system.
  14. Speaking of 2nd half collapses, the Georgia Dome is demolished - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VvfuPqsv36E
  15. Mel Tillis, who had a 60 year career in Country music (as well as film and TV work). Earl Hyman stage actor (nominated for a Tony in 1980 for his work in THE LADY FROM DUBUQUE), tv actor (was Grandfather Huxtable on THE COSBY SHOW) and voice over actor (Panthro on THUNDERCATS)
  16. Justice League - Its structurally sloppy, but its heart seems to finally been in the place as the characters feel closer to what I'd expect they should be. I'd disagree with Kermode that the characters aren't given enough to do, I thought they did a decent job actually with that. I'd agree with him the story is a mess but I think a lot of his snark is just snark for snarks sake.
  17. 1. Captain America: Death Too Soon (1979) TV Movie 2. Captain America (1979) TV Movie 3. The Incredible Hulk Returns (1988) TV Movie 4. Exo-Man (1977) TV Movie (based on a story by Martin "Cyborg/Six Million Dollar Man" Caiden)
  18. I loved the game and would love to see a movie adaption of it. But by all appearances this isn't really an adaption of the game, but slapping the name of the game on a movie about giant animals because it has name recognition.
  19. The Hanging Tree with a Chainsaw.
