Of course I can argue that the Avengers was crap. I think it was. The CGI was terrible. Just because it made a lot of money only proves too many people have no taste! 200pts. Just messing…Eve and Ernie love those movies and Ernie collects Superhero stuff. Whatever floats your boats.
@limburger – the best they can come up with for ‘aliens’ is a few raised eyebrows? Sexy though! 500pts. I have a thing for women in chairs…
Have you seen a Netflix show called ‘Love, Sex, and Robots’? The first episode is excellent apart from the lezzie stuff. Now there is something I thought I would never say! It is only 15 minutes long and is the story of two big monsters fighting in an arena. They are bio-engineered and they are controlled through a ‘link’ with their computers. The fight scene is brilliant.
Star Trek: TNG ruined it. From then on they didn’t have a writer with an idea of where he was taking the series, but they would just take storylines/scripts from anyone. They show all the weiros and what they send in ‘Trekkies’. Another must see if you like that sort of thing. ‘Dungeonmaster’ is the same. If you watch the DM movie you will walk away feeling like the gaming version of God.
@doctorether – I was hoping to get a few more things that a some movies! -20pts. (a small frown, but not towards yourself). I really, really like you. Hammer, Quatermass…I might have let you date my daughter! I was watching the Quatermass TV version of QatP last night. Stuck in hospital in a room with no TV, but the nurse let me use her Table/iPad and I know it is on YT. Quatermass is real horror. The film ‘Night of the Demon’ is like that. Tense, but it is all in your own head. That is why thick people don’t like it. Same with Prog music. 500pts.
What are your favourite Hammer movies? Mine: ‘Taste the Blood of Dracula’ which is so well acted by Ralph Bates, ‘Countess Dracula’ (the first titties I ever saw), and ‘The Creeping Flesh’ starring Mr. Cushing. I saw that wehen I was 11 and it scared the life out of me. One of the original staff members of GW in Newcastle used to go to a boarding school when he was a boy. One night, when he was 7, the older boys made him and some other boys stay up and watch Quatermass and the Pit. He wet himself during the final scenes and when I mentioned the movie to him (25 years later) he went white. Then he told me why.
I just downloaded ‘Dr. Jekyll and Sister Hyde’ to watch. Very topical! 200pts.
All the modern horror movies are rubbish. It’s all been done and these movies do it worse. I was told to try a movie called ‘Baskin’ so gave it a whirl. Turkish (I think), but they just tried too hard. I turned it off after 30 minutes as it was just foul. Watching some Police freak out in some ‘house of horrors’ might have been interesting, but this was just an exercise in being revolting. Not even in a “horror movie” way. Avoid it.
B-movies rule. ‘Them’ or ‘The Day the Earth Caught Fire’ blow away any blockbuster. I tried that new ‘Mummy’ movie, but it had to go off when it turned out the Russell Crowe is suppused to be Dr. Jekyll. That is just taking the piss out of me. It is supposed to be a willing suspension of disbelief and not me trying to avoid the “urge to kill rising” sensation.
2. I am still not buying this. You are just as bad as everyone else…I know it! Confess. You’ll feel better.
You should also go out more and take in all the heavenly glory. Not in a religious way, but in the style of Bruce Lee in ‘Enter the Dragon’.
3. Doesn’t Venice honk? I would like to see some of the buildings and art, but not is it is humming.
You didn’t mention you were married! How long? What is he called? 200pts. I couldn’t resist that. You have to show us a wedding picture, I bet you were all dressed up? I would have loved to do a goth wedding, but I had to get married in uniform. I did look very dashing in my polished drill boots and maroon beret.
A very nice paintjob on the Warcry minis. Again, not my thing, but I do know a good bit of painting when I see it. 500pts. The standard ‘EM paint style just bores the piss out of me.
What are the things that look like Harpies? Awesome painting on the wings!
You painted those in 4 hours? If you did then I am VERY impressed. Impressing me is not easy. I will have to get some badges made and we can have a club.
The Iron Golems are nice. I love the ‘banner’ guy. 200pts. Would look nice in a Mordheim Warband! I found a few old minis when I was looking for something in the caravan…
I am sure someone will know what the sword guys is. I can’t remember the name of the ‘set’, but it was something like ‘Romeo’s Vendetta’. I thought it was a nice duellist for Mordheim. The Ninja is a really old Dixon Miniatures Ninja. I used to use Dixon Samurai as Chaos Samurai for WFB 1st/2nd edition. They also made some really stunning Wild West and ACW minis too.
I would love to do a Wild West skirmish game.
@mage – those Assault Marines look really cool. Any chance of some other pics? Pretty please!
What you talkin’ about, Willis? Drybrushing is circular…when did this happen?
Nice work on the metallic bits. Especially around the raised ‘rivet’ bits. Cool. 200pts.
@rayzryr – YES! I got it right without looking. 200pts to me.
1. I didn’t say just TV! Dave told me to watch ‘Stranger Things’ and we gave it a go. After 3 episodes I was bored to death and told Dave. He then told me that it gets going in the 2nd series and you just have to stick with it. I told him where to stick it. Good job it was by text…seen the size of his neck? How would I choke him out.? You would need to use a car to knock him out!
I have brought my ‘Millennium’ DVD’s upstairs to watch. Well, just the first series. ‘Upstairs, Downstairs’ too. I think that maybe the best TV series ever written. No kidding. My grandmother used to watch it every week when I was 8-9-10 and the very idea of it bored the pants off me. However, when I was still in Sheffield my friends sister was over and asked if she could watch it. I said “of course” and sat to watch it with her. I wanted to watch Jeremy Kyle, but I was being polite. I was fascinated from the start. Hooked instantly.
‘Lost’ – I thought that was a joke series? The guy who was in the wheelchair is also in ‘Millennium’. His character was also in the X-Files.
I prefer the cinema your lot make. ‘The Odd Angry Shot’, ‘Razorback’, ‘The Cars that Ate Paris’, ‘The Last Wave’, and ‘Picnic at Hanging Rock’ to name a few. Aussie films lack any ambition to be Hollywood like. Our BBC2 used to show them on a sunday night when I was a young teenager. I couldn’t get enough. Then I discovered, ‘Prisoner: Cell Block H’. Could you forgive me?
Star Trek: TNG was great for the actors not having any feeling in their performance. Riker could get my ire working by just hearing his name. What was wrong with his bloody neck? He was clearly the gay character that had not yet come-out. Even to himself. Kirk would have fed Riker to a Gorn just for spite. The rest of that crew must have been terrible if Riker was 2nd best. Wit a choob. He couldn’t have gotten sexually assaulted in a bar full of foreign sailors. My Uncle Jack used to say that. You can forgive him as he was (shudder) in the RAF. Famous club organist too.
What was with all the episodes about Troy’s mother? Was there not enough strange new worlds to explore? How come when they did go to strange new worlds there was always someone there?
I got that line for a real Star Trek comedian! There is a great scene in a series called ‘Extras’ where Patrick Stewart is talking to Ricky Gervais about being in Star Trek. Just in case…

What was the last good cinema comedy? Oh, what /who goes to see a f**king Rom-Com? Unless you are trying to winch a lassie than you have no excuse for stooping so low.
2. I know what you mean. The cost thing doesn’t really bother me as I don’t buy that much stuff now that I don’t play GW games. I bought some 20mm SASR – 12 minis and some extra backpacks and it only cost £12. A 20mm vehicle is only £10-£15, but you can just use plastic kits. Force-on-Force is not a ‘vehicle’ game. More than 2 vehicles is too much!
I suppose that is the one “good thing” about having a stroke was that my work knew it was initially their fault and the insurances I had payed out. We never really had lots of debt apart from a mortgage and two growing children!
3. Your own games room! 500pts. I can dig that. I keep all my gaming stuff in a caravan. I want to convert it into a “gaming room”, but just haven’t got around to it.
Electronic music? If it is not Numan or a bit of Darkwave then you can keep it. I do have a few Aussie New-Wave albums that are pretty awesome. John Peel used to play some now-and-again.
‘Crop Dusting’ – I love it. I should send it to Viz magazine. If I do i’ll put your name on it. “Stepping on a Toad” is awesome. It’s like “Walking the Duck”…when you let out a quacking fart with every step. Four is my record. As they usually go down in volume it is like a family of little ducks following mummy. “Bubbly Duck” is a ‘work of art’ that sounds like an really aggitated Malard being drowned in a bucket of custard.
We only get smaller Toads here. Our first Jack Russell liked to eat dead, and dried, Toads when she found them. Moles too.
You would want to be firing towards your target if he is in a car. The drain shot (from the X-Files) is an interesting idea, but the GK is the best position for a team of shooters. Then again, the idea of the driver being the final shooter is a great idea. 500pts. Oswarld, high behind and firing three shots through foliage with a really badly made bold-action rifle is not a very plausible story. All US Marines are qualified as an expert rifleman when they finish training, but even that is stretching things a bit far.
Never played D&D or AD&D! Glad to hear you had a great time with your daughter. Daughters rule. 5000pts. Your next job as a responsible father is to encourage her into a high paying occupation…so for Father’s Day she can buy you minis! That is what I did.
@limburger – anyone else would have been banned for choosing DS9 over B5. Heresay. They did that here from 1700hrs to 2200hrs! This was pre-internet at home so you had to go out and buy the series on VHS at 2 episodes a time. Download it if you haven’t seen it all. That is the best thing about B5…it has a storyline that covers the 5 years of the series. You have to ignore the episode he wrote while ill and off his gourd on cough-medicine.
Well, I thought I was a bit of a B5 geek, but I have no idea what you mean. She is good. I remember what Marcus said the first time he saw her. The spelling will be terrible, “Noosan falani in alay medrun.” Well, it sounded like that. Bits like that made it so powerful.
@ceppie – roger that. Is it the weather?
I hope @oriskany is dug-in well and doing good.
