Yes, Red Dawn and the Cabin in the Woods were both shot then put on hold when MgM went bankrupt. It also stalled the latest Bond flick. But now that they got it sorted out, Cabin was already released, Bond set to do so next month and Dawn a bit later, if not into next year. My step father is in the industry so I keep up with the trades so I have superficial yet somewhat insightful knowledge when I ring the house on occasion to check on him.

Wishing everyone on the east coast the best. IT-Guy stupidly flew into Richmond yesterday for a business trip he thinks he's going to complete there, DC and NY. I told him to scrap it and go next week but noooo, someone had to be a professional. Now he's trapped and I can watch my DVRed General Hospital without the color commentary. "Oh look, it's the hospital...that is general." This girl loves her soap. Just the one. I used to watch it every afternoon with my mother when I was little and never stopped. Made the mistake of watching the Walking Dead yesterday evening and freaked myself the hell out all alone in the house. Slept with the bedroom door locked. IT-Guy teased that I'm less scared of zombies than I am of someone setting my closet on fire. True. *sigh I love that man.

Hes not going to NYC. That place is utterly devastated. No transit service, 3 mil people without power, half of manhattan is under water, a dam break and levi breaches, and currently queens is burning to the ground and both airports are under water.

No, you cant get into NYC right now.

However, did anyone get any info on the building that collapsed? I heard about it last night, now nothing?

Edit: As of 6:32am est time the director of FEMA has warned everyone to stay away from NYC and New Jersey, it will take days if not weeks to get things up and running again.

Edit Edit: All plane and train service into DC is suspended as well, so he's not going there either, lol.

Edit Edit Edit: Yeah, not sure if anyone wants to know this one but the New Jersey Oyster Creek Nuclear Power Facility has issued an alert due to its pumps being submerged by storm surge. If anyone is in that area, might be a good time to get out before it ends up another Fukashima.

All clear in Virginia.

Richmond should be safe for IT-guy, it's literally a city on a hill, so all the water runs into the James River sooner or later. Richmond has some great restaurants so if he's stuck there and likes food, Urbanspoon it!

Now, imagine a zombie breaking into your home and he sets your closet on fire!

full story, apparently Disney is aiming for one new SW movie per 2-3yrs after launching Ep 7 in 2015.

http://money.cnn.com/2012/10/30/technology/disney-buys-lucasfilm/index.html?hpt=hp_t3

i dunno.  how much worse than EP I could any SW film get?

There were those 2 Ewok/Endor oriented movies that I think were in co op with Disney, at least they aired on Disney infrequently anyways.

Ep 7, THE RETURN OF CINDEL

Heya Dem, in regards to the Eriadu populace... its not like we just base delta zero'd the planet lmao. Its a targeted bombardment of a military installation, so unless Eriadu is one of those massive planet cities, I highly doubt we are "setting communities ablaze with their indiscriminate fire." My men have better aim then that hahaha!

On a side note, this shit is great. We need to figure a way to institute propaganda bonus's or something. Perhaps maybe Hale just take a more "action/consequence" position on SLs. Do like a real D&D DM and be like: "Ok, realistically that BMIC would be located inside a city. You just basically blew it off the earth, imperials on the planet are broadcasting it planetwide (or at least assumed from his SL) and as such a consequence happens." Could be anything from mission objectives now take longer time to complete. Or perhaps the people are so angered by it a small militia raises up added to the defense. Any number of things really, would be at GMs discretion.

We would just have to make a gentlemens agreement that, if we go this route, the GMs consequence rulings are UNCHALLENGEABLE. You may whine about it lightly, but you may not argue against it, ask for a ruling against it, or do anything other then cry like a beat child if you get fucked up. Cause lets face it, watching a person cry about getting fucked up is mildly amusing. Not to mention it would put a solid emphasis on storylining with our posts. Any SL could reward or punish you due to your actions, or lack there of. Thoughts?

The Ewok Adventure... the prosecution rests. And yes, that was the Disney one. Oh... I sense disturbance in the force. A darkness on the horizon. As if an entire galaxy cried out at once, and was suddenly... disgusted...

Umm, im not sure what you know about complex SLs Hale but it will take me that long just to chapter out him discovering his powers...

And I apologize for my absence as of late, IRL problems and halloween there limited my availability. With all due respect, my children are more important then a game lol.
