It falls in the cautiously optimistic.   Especially if Bioware could do to Star Wars what it did with Mass Effect.  Maybe they could take up the reigns of Star Wars 1313.

Iron Man 3 notes

Am I the only one that thinks "Trevor" is just an act and he's just playing a clown to get others to let their guard down ... via the whole theatrics and deception thing. However, it was a good play by Black and his co-writer. It was one of the best scenes in the movie and it was very enjoyable by those in my group that didn't follow comic books at all.

Additionally... Paltrow is stunningly beautiful and there's no mistake that my main character in Star Trek Online bares some resemblance to Pepper. However, her abs were a bit distracting in the later part of the film. I found myself focusing more on her abs than what was going on.

I don't think so, Trevor was being Trevor before he knew Tony was there.

In 2 weeks is both Star Trek Into Darkness and Fast & Furious 6. From the rumblings I've heard, I'll catch the latter in the theatre first and wait for the jury on the former.

Agree on the Star Trek assessment. I've caught a couple reviews from the overseas launches, I'll wait to see how things fallout here. 

I've been playing Neverwinter since the early beta, and it's... alright. If you liked D&D 4th ed. or are a fan of the Forgotten Realms setting you should give it a try, but if you're looking for a well-polished and engaging MMO... it wouldn't have much to offer you, IMO.

I play with friends on Dragon. Its enjoyable, for a F2P title, it's a time killer like most others have been.

Johnny Mnemonic TV Series

Could be interesting depending who they have writing it from the Stargate franchise.

A question on Virtues of Command:

Does the sentence "The hero’s Class Level is also considered 2 higher when determining the effects of the chosen class’ abilities" mean that together with the abilities a mage or a priest would also get an increased caster level?

No, the next line in the description says: 
This does not grant other class benefits, such as class features or table modifiers.

Caster Level is a Class Feature.

Alan Arbus, M.A.S.H. and so much more

Goodnight Sidney, Say Hello to Sigmund.  *sigh*  His were the best episodes on MASH

I have a player that would love these.

Chrissy Amphlett, lead sunger of The Divinyls, dead at 53

Damn, she will be remembered well.

Nuts... Well, I'm going to watch that video again.

And touch yourself?   *ducks*

Oblivion, Rolling Stones review with Peter Travers

I never want this guy to review a Sci Fi movie ever again.  OMG, how out of touch can you get.  His comments about Tron Legacy.  *facepalm*

Likewise; I bought Mistborn not because I had any particular interest in the setting, but purely to throw you guys some well-deserved money.

Same here, haven't read it or the books, but I bought it.

Here's to Pat getting the time needed to knock Spellbound out of the park.

My bad, I read that and missed the equal part.

Per the RAW, it depends on your roll.
If you have Spellcasting DC of 13 and the target has a SD of 15.  You need to roll a 16 or higher to cast and hit the target.
