RED came out today and it was AWESOME! absolutely hillarious, and well done. Great action, and some great comedic moments by a cast that was perfectly picked and worked brilliantly today.
The scene at the end was priceless. -
Clarks highschool Reuinion reunites him withan old foe.

Saw the trailer for this and for me It looked like just plain fun.

A friend GMing Mutants and Masterminds game. The game is a future based legacy game,some 25 years into the future of the marvel universe. My Character is a legacy of Namor. Prince Mako of Atlantis. Super strong as all get out, amphibious, etc, he also has an ability to control water based on a water bending concept. ((basically Aquaman without the suck))
the group of which im playing runs into a mystery and in the course of the investigation we run into 3 super villains. Crusher Creel the Absorbing man, a Tiger shark variant, and a speedy martial artist villain.
Prince Mako enjoying a good fight but cunning enough to know that even as strong and as tough as he is, that hes out gunned uses trickery to thin thin the numbers a bit.
He uses his water bending to cause a snowball to hit crusher creel on the back of the head. Behind crusher creel is Tiger Shark. Crusher rolls his notice check and fails. Badly The GM rolls a natural 1. Creel turns and Promptly Clobbers Tiger Shark aftyer a brief argument knocking the powerful villain out cold. This is all the distraction Mako needs and with a maxed all out/ power attack haymaker the last thing the Absorbing man sees is Prince Makos freight train of a fist heading for his chin.
KAPOW!! Creel is not only knocked clean out after a failed toughness save but hes also sent several hundred feet airborne.
deciding to press the advantage I tell the Gm that I use my move action to Intimidate the Speedy little martial arts villain whos just witnessed the most powerful member of the three get cold cocked in one punch by yours trully.
I roll intimidation, and she rolls a will save.
She fails
horribly.
She turns tail and runs as fast as she can.
Unfortunately for her Mako is much faster having the speed power, and is easilly able to suddenly appear in front of her and demand her surrender.
she chose option 1, as option 2 involved broken bones and a hospital stay. -

Tonight biblical plagues, and Cas returns **Gleeeeeeeeee!!*

Starwars D20 and 4 words. Wookie in the closet.
the combination equals a rodian thug scared so badly that he went from puke green to snow white and nearly had a heart attack.
It also equals 4 players and gm roll in on the floor laughing hysterically for 15 minutes before resuming gaming. -

Shapeshifters what form will you take?
Sam and Dean take care of teh baby and a potent enemy chases them down.
and next week.
Cas!!! Gleeee!! -
well to be fair the mayans have another 2 years to go.
-
I agree with nightphall. Rangers cna spec two weapon fighting style early and have everything youd need to be a scout and roll into wildrunner.
Asto the rest styalisticlly an elfen Zulu style warrior would seem to be a spring type fighter highly mobile and agile using the spear as the prime weapon and switching off to a short curved sword as needed to dart opast an opponetns guard. -
Captain America gallery
5 photos the first 3 show Evans buffed up so no worries about him being too small for the role. And the last two well ill let you decide whether to WOOT WOOT!! -
Season 6 begins tonight
Dean tries to live a normal life and gets an unexpected visitor. -
meh.
same as before, as long as Snakes and Scarlett are together Ill watch. if they arent forget it. -
Rooster Cogburn or True Grit both John Wayne classics.
The Secret of N.I.M.H. an animation classic from the Bluth Studios and well worth discussion.
Water Ship Down Another animation classic, while not as extensive as the novel it actually follows the novel pretty closely comparatively to others nowadays.
The Matrix This ones a cinema lovers dream.
First Blood. the original was a compelling tale of the disconnect Vietnam vets felt returning home, especially when combiend with the action of the movie. Stallones emotional crack up at the end is one of his best pieces of acting ever.
The Last Unicorn again an animated classic, some slight variation from the novel but with some exellent voice acting and a compelling and tear jerking story. -
Hmmm
Statesman: Travis Willingham ((Roy Mustang full metal Alchemist perfect deep hero voice)) or Adam Baldwin ((Chuck))
Back Alley Brawler: Kevin Michael Richardson or Phil Lamar
Synapse: Michael Rosenbaum
Positron: Ioan Gruffud ((Mr. Fantastic))
Ms. Liberty: Kate Higgins ((Sakura Haruno, and many others))
Siege: Carl Lumbly or Keith David
Manticore: Johnny Young Bosch
Sister Psyche: Jennifer Hale or Olivia D'Abo
Infernal: Ron Perlman
Numina: Also Kate Higgins ((Retsu Unohana Bleach))
Swan: Colleen O'Shaunnessey
Valkyrie: Maria Canals
Mirror Spirit: Lauren Tom
Lord Recluse: Dave Lodge ((Jiraiya, Kenpachi))
Black Scorpion: Michael Dorn
Captain Mako: Frank Welker
Scirroco: Corey Burton
Ghost Widow: Grey Delise
Best I can put together off the top of my head. -
A lock of his hair is used to power the Paragon city Reactor. This is the true reason for the attacks by the Rikti, Freakshow and Sky Raiders.
The respec task force is so people can bask in the glow of his awesomeness. it enables them to change their powers.
The Crystal titan is the end result of Hamidon getting a hold of one of his toenail clippings.
Malta Sapper guns use the light of his smile to drain you of the will to fight.
The Ghost Ship came back because the crew wanted to meet him.
Unfortunately he no longer broadcasts looking for teams any more. because his message box gets overloaded and hed hate to disappoint someone by not responding to them.
Fortunately there's enough of him to go around so he regularly does 25 man radio missions. In three different zones. At the same time.
Architect Entertainment was an attempt to allow players to duplicate his many adventures. So far only a few have come close.
He doesnt Taunt, instead he asks villains to discuss their issues rationally. They always do. -
When he uses a sniper blast hes never Interrupted, because it would be rude.
He doesnt use the medical machine to heal someone, he just pats you on the head and makes it better.
He can activate all 4 leadership powers at full power for everyone in the zone by just saying "Follow me!"
He regularly uses teleport team to port large groups to Pocket D for dance time.
He is the new Party Pack.
He uses Group fly by smiling. it lifts everyones spirits and they fly. -
He doesnt have an evil doppleganger. because two of him would be just too much for the multiverse to take.
He once caught Captain Mako while fishing. After taking a picture Mako asked him to autograph it.
Lusca popped up in the ocean because she wanted to shake his hand and hand and hand and hand and hand...
When he accompanies you on a cave map, the caves dont seem so bad.
Paragon protectors are an attempt to match the aswesomeness of his pinky finger. Its not working.
Circle of thorn mages explode just from his presence. This dissapoints him because hed really like to get to know them.
Mirror spirit looks at his reflection in the mirror. who can blame her?
A little known secret of Paragon is that Positrons original energy state was caused by trying to absord his awesomeness. The armor was made because one man who is not him cannot contain that much awesome.
Siege is the end result of trying to use technology to be like him and mass produce the results.
Adamastor is the necromantic equivalent of the same attempt.
