Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded).

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.

Saw Interstellar at the movie theater yesterday as part of the 10 year anniversary. Still an absolute beauty to watch.

Yes. Very CoC sort of adventure really building up to the end.

Quote from: Thornhammer on December 05, 2024, 10:43:51 PMWatched Alien: Romulus.

They did some weird shit I'm not quite 100% on board with, but in the grand scheme of things I was damned pleased with the movie.

The first ~30 minutes of that movie was fantastic. The dystopian corporate mining colony, the plucky crew, the abandoned station.

Once the aliens popped out it was ...fine, I enjoyed it. But until it had to put aliens in the alien movie I thought it was brilliant. Maybe there's room for a no-alien story in that universe? With the penguin show being so well received I think there might.

I'm a big fan of Alien, Romulus was my least favourite of the 7 movies.
I was afraid it was going to be kids-in-space ...& it was.
I found all the characters annoying & I was hoping they would die soon so i didnt have to listen to them much longer.

I realise im in a minority as most people seem to think it was OK. & most people dislike Prometheus & Covenant: I like those a lot.

Now Disney has it, "game over man, game over!"

Awesome. That's my favorite movie to have someone watch without warning them what they're getting into. I've used some ideas from it when I ran a Lampton/Dhampton Worm adventure in my Dragon Warriors campaign, but not a direct adaptation.

EDIT: It's very loosely based on a Bram Stoker novel of the same name. I tried the book once, but it's kinda boring.
