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.

Have the Drow been ruined?

Quote from: Sigmund;614189LOL! My childhood movie episode needing to be worked out through therapy was my parents, for some crazy reason, taking me to see The Godfather at the drive-in. To this day the horse head in the bed scene and the toll booth scene both give me the willies :D

I too watched The Godfather when I was a kid, and it didn't scare me very much. But the horse head scene was Alien-level for me too :D

Strangely enough, my parents got all miffed when my cousin brought me to see "Saturday Night Fever" (I was 11, he was 21). Not only I enjoyed it a lot, but I found it, even at that age, an heart-wrenching drama. Even today not many people realize how SNF isn't a musical at all - more a modern version of La Dolce Vita.
For every idiot who denounces Ayn Rand as "intellectualism" there is an excellent DM who creates a "Bioshock" adventure.

I saw Jaws in the theater when it came out too, but oddly enough it didn't bother me near as much as the horse head scene.

I saw Jaws in the theatre, too, and between that and reading Blue Water White Death, I was afraid to get in the shower.
