Vondy Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 Re: A Thread for Random Musings So... there I was looking for something to watch. Its been a hard day. I can't concentrate. I thought, maybe I can find a watchable horror film with no depressing themes (easier said that done). I skipped through a bunch of titles. Lesbian vampire killers was right out. Too many enticing jiggly bits promised there. A lack of interest in nazi zombies ruining people's ski vacations didn't do it for me. Thus, Dead Snow was out. Amateur Porn Star Killer3 sounded base. Feast 3: The Happy Finish could have used a more creative name, especially since it was marketing as horror-comedy. I mean, why not Feast 3: The Final Course. The list of badly titled movies with low budgets and horrible premised began to mount. Just when I thought it couldn't get any worse I run across... drum roll please... TERROR AT BLOOD FART LAKE I kid you not. One more time for posterity: Terror at Blood Fart Lake. Its a real movie: http://www.watch-movies-online.tv/movies/terror_at_blood_fart_lake/ I howled with laughter just reading the title. Here's the description someone posted: The Legend of Blood Fart lake is...well...legendary! When a group of college kids head off to their friend's cabin for a little high octane sex weekend they will get more than they bargained for in the form of the evil Scarecrow killer, Jimmy Van Brunt! Seems like no body is safe at spooky cabins in the woods by the lake these days. Experience characters that make you want to howl with laughter and constipation! Witness deaths the likes of which you have never seen before! One part Friday the 13th, One part Ernest Goes To Camp and 3 parts Cream Cheese, wonder aloud who will be still be alive by the end of this Terror At Blood Fart Lake?! I mean, are there people actually making money with these films? And if so, why am I working for a living? Go figure: I decided to try another category.

Narf the Mouse Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 Re: A Thread for Random Musings The number "15.384615384615384615384615384615", multiplied by 13, results in exactly 200 (If the calculator doesn't lie) How did I find that out? Well, when making equipment, I use Active Points * Real Points = Cost; a rather effective shortcut. However, Charges requires its own rule - Using that equation, the resulting cost of a potion (1 NR Charge) tends to be within 1/3 to 1/5 of the total cost. Obviously, this is far too high - So I divide the AP by the Charges limitation alone. So, I was calculating for the Potion of Giant-Size (Growth, Enormous), which lasts one hour. 50 / 3.25 * 13... ...Checked three times, same answer. Cool.

tkdguy Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 Re: A Thread for Random Musings I just had this weird idea for a movie. It's basically a modern-day film noir story set in an alternate universe. It's the current date, but with lots of anachronisms. People dress much more formally, like they did in the mid-20th century. The music is more like swing and big band, even modern-day songs (see that video I posted in the Random Videos thread). Zeppelins would be more common. I'm sure this would work great as an rpg setting. How well would it go over as a movie? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lemming Posted December 17, 2009 Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 Re: A Thread for Random Musings Been out of work for six weeks now. Everyone at the ex-work got a weeks pay as a bonus and I still didn't regret my decision at all. And I've made some money with photography already that I'm just throwing right back into it, but I've been happier now than I have been for near two years.
