The next person will recommend it to me and will tell me thoroughly why I should watch. They will also tell me if the movie is available on Netflix, and also if it is a Netflix Original.
The Expanse is a series, and I've just finished watching the first season on Netflix, and mightily enjoyed it.
It's space opera, and although the overarching plot could be better the series is done well enough for this not too matter. The acting is generally good, enough has been spent on the special effects to make sure they don't jar the viewer's overall experience , and although your almost certainly not going to see anything you havn't seen before, if you liked that you saw before you'll like this too!
Their are space stations, huge industrial ice cube grabbing space ships, Earth government intrigue, space cops with funny hair styles, and an actor who delivers his lines in an accent that has to be heard to be believed, and which I still can't quite decide was either genius or the actor having a larf!
Ah yes, fighting fantasy. I remember a rain soaked family holiday on the Isle of Skye, and me sulking about absolutely everything, until I discovered a shop in Portree selling tourist nic nacs and, inexplicably, a small upright circular display stand packed with Fighting Fantasy books.
I seem to recall my fav's were Forest of Doom and City of Thieves.
The next poster has fond memories of Fighting Fantasy books too.
Yes. Even if I could find a supposed flaw in that sentence, I've never been a grammar nazi. As long as a sentence's meaning is clear, it doesn't matter.
Much of spoken English, after all, is in sentence fragments.
False. I will probably have been wondering about when will be the first time I can play PST:EE, how much my food weighed (I eat a lot, so I measure it in weight rather than calories etc) and if anyone will notice tomorrow that I went to a barber shop for my beard today and comment on it. Working on letting out my inner dwarf, I've grown a fairly decent beard recently and for some reason I've noticed people always comment on it. And I mean that literally, EVERYONE has commented on my beard. 100% of my colleagues. It's interesting.
True. Especially Spartacus. And on an ever so slightly related subject, my copy of Peekskill signed by Howard Fast is one of my most prized possessions.
The next poster has a book signed by the author that is one of their most treasured possessions.
Timber? It's only use here is to make a good asado. And chainsaws are largely useless as well, they make for a terrible weapon—no reach, requires either fuel or electricity, besides being really heavy, usually expensive and you can't hide it.
The next poster is going to tell us what their ideal weapon is.
Interestingly enough, there are D&D 3.5 stats for macuahuitls... because, you know, it is entirely possible a Mesoamerican warrior will step through a portal and wind up in whatever campaign you're running.
The next poster will share their favorite ridiculous weapon or item that, for no discernible reason, someone added to D&D.
I'm afraid I lost the link to it, but supposedly, an imaginative player rigged up several bags of holding and a crossbow to create a full auto, infinite ammo, delivery system of death. They even included a blueprint for its construction.
