Taking friends to see DISCLOSURE DAY Saturday night, but I’d be fucking up my geek status if I didn’t figure out how to squeeze in another screening of THE FURIOUS. Can’t let that go without seeing it again.
I’d be curious to know if the Krynn/Dragonlance saga has any legs if anyone were to adapt those books/adventures for movies or streaming. If you’ve been into D&D for a minute, you’re probably aware of it, right? Would they be successful or just get cult status? Or the Drizzt stories?
I told y'all this a few months back, but seriously, get in on the ground floor of this. Be the one telling your friends. So many of your favorite creators are going to walk out of this movie screaming this:
Can you fly, Bobby?
Welp, I knew this would be the case but it turns out getting our AC replaced is more expensive this year than last year & now we’re looking at $2160 all-in ($1800+ last yr). Anyway, if anyone wants to help a writer to keep going, paid subs are appreciated: from-the-desk-of-the-horror-chick.ghost.io
I bought the Ravenloft book, maps, screen, and cards. (They release this stuff a week early in game/comic stores.)
I’ve loved Ravenloft since the Tracy and Laura Hickman module in the 1980s. I still think it’s probably the best written module of D&D ever. Interviewed Tracy Hickman once.
*Krynn, not Keynote. Damn autocorrect.
I have things to say about the last 15 minutes of DISCLOSURE DAY but gonna wait till more eyes get on it. But there’s purpose in what Spielberg’s doing, and why he’s choosing to show what he shows in that way. There’s multi-level stuff going on, and I’ll leave it at that.
I also love the Dragonlance books/world. Creating the best horror module, the Desert Trilogy (which fucking rules), and then Keynote? Tracy Hickman isn’t given enough credit. He was a pretty great fantasist. (I haven’t followed much in recent years.)
E.T. was released 44 years ago today, and JURASSIC PARK 33 years ago today. Now we have a new Steven Spielberg blockbuster opening today, and it’s great. Read my review of DISCLOSURE DAY at @vitalthrills.com: www.vitalthrills.com/disclosure-d...
