    Story-wise, I think the only thing about that movie that I actally liked was that whole stage-by-stage alien progression, especially since you can tell the end stage in the movie isn't anywhere near complete, and only has further to go. I really thought they did a good job with that. And the music. And... eh... Michael Fassbender?

    I've been looking at a lot of spaceship pics for a possible Stars Without Number game and keep coming back to the Prometheus and stills from the movie. It's beautiful. The story is okay, the characters, really stupid people who've never seen a horror movie. But the effects and the art design...

    The worst thing is that if it wasn't Ridley Scott, I would have found it to be a perfectly serviceable sci-fi horror film. As it is, I kind of hate it.

    I love way too many terrible horror films for me to consider my dislike of this film fair at all.

    If I gave an artsy, pretentious name to this still, it would be Hubris.

    If I had to give a name to this still, it would be "touch of alien creature gives moron scientist ability to survive indefinitely without air."

    Because her spacesuit ran out of air immediately before this scene, and she ran back outside immediately after.

    Hypersleep gives humans brain damage. It obviously wasn't perfected yet. It is the only logical explanation.

Tonight, my "Lethal Damage" 13th Age campaign draws to a close.

Originally shared by Jonathan Tweet Tonight, my "Lethal Damage" 13th Age campaign draws to a close. Meanwhile, the guys are work have talked me into running a couple D&D sessions for them. That was the day 13th Age was announced, and they're happy to play 13th Age instead. That will be my "Great Center" campaign, based in the imperial capital of Axis, the center of the world. It's my opportunity to explore the setting from yet another perspective.

From Voyageurs National Park on FB: Called “Catamaran” by locals, Bert Upton is among the strangest of historical characters on area waters. He lived in a hut built over a dug-out at Squirrel Narrows. Found frozen to death in the 1930s by Kettle Falls pioneer Oliver Knox; Upton was perched lifeless in the snow just a half-mile from his home. Shunning civilization, Upton defined the word hermit. First spotted rowing his crude log raft on Namakan, no one knows how he got there. Upton’s accent implied an English heritage but any personal inquiries brought a stony silence. Some suspected him a man fleeing the law; others saw a bizarre outcast; everyone knew he was peculiar. Just five feet tall and wildly unkempt, Catamaran wore hacked-off pants and walked barefoot with a stick. Winter demanded shoes but no socks, a cast-off Mackinaw, and a trailing cap made from the leg of old underwear. He was oddly religious, and suspicious of being poisoned. Surviving on snared rabbits and fish, he ofte...
