This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

I enjoyed it. I don't find anything pathetic about being able to laugh at oneself- quite the opposite in fact.

I liked it that the girls where just as psycho as the guys are.

EDIT: There´s some underlying critique and mocking of general human traits going on in those films. It´s a testament to the reflexion and smartness of the RPG Hobby that it´s produced by us. Skaterboiz don´t have such a movie, nor do the bowling clubs produce one.

I love how white box DnD is proudly displayed in the gamer den...I think that's in the first one. Top little films.

On a related note, has anyone seen "Fellowship of the Dice"? I've not seen any discussion...did it come out?

I thought episode II started slow but considerably picked up once the female gamers were on board. The second one (the actress) was hilarious, I thought.

I love the approach, too, when he's going to the game store. It's clear he's a pariah even among his own kind.

That's because he's an elite dungeon master.

Mere hobbyists like us can't even comprehend Doug's level of commitment to the game.

Quote from: flyingmiceI don't see anything sinister in it, just something... pathetic. Like how many gamers hide that they are gamers. If gamers are ashamed of gaming and think of themselves as socially maladjusted dorks, what hope does this hobby have of flourishing, of attracting anyone but those who think of themselves as maladjusted dorks?

Most of the gamers I know are cool people. There are a few wierdos, but no more than any other hobby. Look at some other fandoms someday!

I know I'm alone in this. I've been talking about this subject for years. Most gamers enjoy putting themselves down. I think it's just an excuse for not trying. Set your goals low enough and success is almost guaranteed.

It's just for laughs, mate. If you want view to it as symptomatic of something deeper and darker then by all means do so, but be aware that virtually every adult-orientated comedy in human history becomes problematic when deconstructed.

I don't want to start any kind of internet row or anything, but what the fuck does this mean? An excuse for not trying what?

IME, it's the gamers (and I don't mean clash here, he seems to have some other sort of issue) that have no real life aspirations that tend to take gaming way too seriously and get upset about this sort of thing.

IMHO, it's not as funny as the first.
