Knights of the Dinner Table!
 
Ah yes... this sounds like an episode of Dork Tower waiting to happen. Everything was set up: the character sheets were filled up properly,  snacks were bought from mini stop, core rule books and magazine supplements were made ready...but one thing was missing. The frickin adventure. Yes I left the dungeon magazine at the shop.
 
and so a nice quiet evening of gaming was wasted.
 
At least Carding managed to watch Turn Right Turn Left. (he cried like a baby...the wimp)
 
Oh and Takeshi Kaneshiro just outed himself recently. (sorry girls)

Just watched King Arthur with Tin and I really recommend this for all gamers. ( I watched this without any expectations whatsoever so I wasn't at all disappointed with the story) It's got kick ass action scenes ---my favorite: 8 knights versus 200 saxons!! woooot!!
 
Don't even bother to analyze the story or characterization, just admire the quiet beauty of Keira Knightly and her equally gorgeous co-stars (tristan was rather striking)
 
story wise: gaping plot holes as big as the moon. don't even think about it.
 
verdict: Fun to watch (definitely nothing cerebral!) A great way to waste 2 hours. Nothing to write home about...gamers might want to get their own copy just for the battle scenes but that's about it. Not worth getting this on pirated dvd. (just rent it)
