Dragonlance the movie, staring Lucy Lawless

[WayAbvPar]

Can't I choose Truth instead?

[Ironwood]

Yeah, this went odd places.

Again.


Someone post Lucy's Boobs and bring balance to the Force.

[WayAbvPar]

Or we can go back to mocking Salvatore again. That seriously never gets old. At least for me  :-D

[Samwise]

Easy choice.

[Signe]

This is when she was "glowing."

[Samwise]

You keep using that word.  I do not think it means what you think it does.

[Lt.Dan]

Oh great, a Dragonlance movie is surely going to spawn a whole new line of MMO wannabees. 

[Taaslehoff]: Rouge LFG
[DavidTasslehoff]: Rouge with 3s stun lfg
[Tasslehoof]: lfg to farm Stockades

I only wish there were a decent Dragonlance MMOG.

Don't ruin that tiny spark of a childhood dream.

Arctic was a lot of fun, though that was/is a text MUD -- I was very sad when it closed the first time around. A lot of people wandered over to Sojourn for their D&D MUD fix but it seriously sucked in comparison, at least initially.

[Margalis]

What about that game with the "Sun" in the title. I remember that was online and D&D, was that dragonlance or something else.

I want to say Golden Sun but I know that isn't it. Dark Sun?

I'm not a huge D&D nerd so I never really got what Dragonlance even is? Is it just some setting that uses the D&D rules? (And presumably has dragons and/or lances in it?)

Yes Dark Sun Online on TEN.

Yup that's pretty much it.

[Ironwood]

Easy choice.

I'm tempted to ask 'who's the unattractive skinny bitch with the fake titties?' but the picture is telling me that's Ms Lawless.  Surely not.  I've NEVER seen her that ugly.

[stray]

Looks good to me...

Dungeons and Dragons takes place in numerous "worlds" with differing moods and themes to them.  Dragonlance, Greyhawk, Forgotten Realms, Ravenloft, Dark Sun (I believe), Planescape (sorta), and Eberron are all examples of this.

Each has some unique twist, or is supposed to.  Eberron and their technology, Forgotten Realms and all the gods and elves they have (seriously, they have like 50 kinds of elves, even I think that's excessive), Dark Sun and its focus on psionics and desert landscape... I'm going to say etc here because I don't know the others except Ravenloft which is basically gothic D&D.

[Ironwood]

Looks good to me...

Not to me. I've just goggled Ms Lawless and trawled through the first ten pages of a google image search.

1 - I can't find that picture yet and don't really want to.  She just looks awful there.  It looks totally photoshopped.
2 - The woman is goddamn hawt.  Really hawt.  God, there wasn't a single bad picture amongst them.  HAWT.

[Merusk]

That picture is from a Maxim magazine spread a few years ago.  I seem to recall at the time Maxim was given a hard time for using 'distorting' lenses on fuller-figured women because they like featuring 'skinny bitches with fake titties.'    I agree with your assessment of the Pic, Ironwood.

Greyhawk was generic D&D land.  It was the first 'world' and one in which anything in the AD&D ruleset could happen.  Planescape was Gods & Demigods and other-planar beings.  Pretty much what you saw in the CRPG.   Dragonlance is the "romantic" fantasy setting (thus the melodrama, I suppose) and included Dragons & Dragon-mounted "Lances" for aireal jousting..   There were no Gods in Dragonlance, as the gods had withdrawn.  There was something about the moons and mages, too.

MY ANACONDA DON'T WANT NONE UNLESS YOU GOT BUNS, HON!

[Signe]

She never looked like that in that extremely silly show she was in.  She was big and muscley and a sort of studly looking woman with a somewhat pleasant face.  I thought the picture of her pregnant was even better than that piece of dramatic crap picture... at least she looked happy and well fed.  I like her face, usually... she's very normal looking.

[Ironwood]

Yeah, what the Crazy Lady said.

So you're saying you enjoy it when your women look like little boys instead of having hips and an ass?  Ok, Father Gallo.  :-D

I was expressing agreement with Ironwood's position, quoting an eloquent passage from the definitive work on the subject.

[bhodi]

he likes large posteriors and cannot prevaricate.

[Samwise]

I think I was Googling "Lucy Lawless cleavage".  FOR YOU.  You bastard. 

(edit) and apparently none of the other pictures of her anywhere are hotlinkable.  Boo.

Ahh.. see by quoting me, I took it as mockery and gave an appropriate snarky reply.  Ah well, such is the wonder of internet miscommunication.

[El Gallo]

Yeah, I probably should have quoted Ironwood instead, but I was so excited to go all Mix-a-Lot on everyone I clicked the first quote button I could find.

[Trippy]

Voice cast for movie.

Casing for the movie has now been completed with Kiefer Sutherland assuming voicing duties for Raistlin Majere. Sutherland is of course best known as Jack Bauer from TV`s "24", however he also has a string of acclaimed movie roles to his credit. Sutherland joins a voice cast which includes Lucy Lawless ("Xena: Warrior Princess") as Goldmoon, Michael Rosenbaum ("Smallville") as Tanis Half-Elven, and Michelle Trachtenberg ("Buffy the Vampire Slayer") as Tika Waylan, for the animated movie adaptation of "Dragons of Autumn Twilight".

Other significant roles in the film include:

Fred Tatasciore (Flint Fireforge)
Rino Romano (Caramon Majere)
Jason Marsden (Tasslehoff Burrfoot)
Mark Worden (Sturm Brightblade)

[WindupAtheist]

Drowschwitz.

EDIT:  I just googled "drowschwitz".  The only results were me here on F13, and some guy who said it elsewhere in like 2002.  I'm crushed.  I almost invented a word, but one guy in the world thought of it before me.  I must find that guy and kill him.

[Ironwood]

Hmmm.

Strangely, Sutherland will really, really work for me as Raistlin.  I'm thinking the voice that he used in Dark City or possibly Flatliners.

Cool.


Dragonlance still sucks ass.

[Xerapis]

Yeah, I actually like Sutherland for Raistlin too.  Although I always liked Dalamar far more than Raistlin ^^

Not so into the idea of Buffy's little sister voicing Tika, though.

Cleric's Quintet was far superior to any of the Drizzt dreck.

Oh, and because I am that big of a dork...Lord Soth FTW!

That is all.

[Ironwood]

Don't worry about Buffy's sister.  She'll do fine.

I'd worry about the Jamaican bloke from Futurama being Riverwind instead.

[Tebonas]

Its been many many years since I read Dragonlance, but wasn't Tika Waylan just a barmaid in Dragonlance Chronicles? Regardless of how horrible the voice acting could be, she should appear only twice for the viewer to endure. (Bonus points if she tells somebody to 'Get out' of the inn, I guess).

[Merusk]

She was the Barmaid-turned-adventurer.  She got to go along and be Cameron's source of sexual frustration later, after they removed Goldmoon/ Riverwind from the Angst equation.  There was a groping/ heavy-breathing scene somewhere between the two of them where she gets him all worked up then says "oh wait, we can't." (1)

But since they're only doing the first book at this point, I think you're correct.  She'll show-up in the bar, shake her bottom and dissapear from the story.

1)   See, that's why Kitiara was evil. She WOULD do you six ways from Sunday then wander off without getting all Emo about it. Good girls don't!

[Ironwood]

I believe I already covered Kitiara's 'badness' in another thread.

Stupid, stupid, stupid lazy writing.

We need a baddy.  We need a female baddy.  Give her dark hair and a sexual appetite.  That'll do.

Fucking clownshoes.

It was only later on that they actually did any characterisation of her and even then it sucked.  She's bad because her Daddy was naughty at her or some such shit.

Seriously, don't get me started again.  It's bad, bad, bad writing.

NO.  NO. NO.

You have this wrong.  It was Caramon who said 'We can't' when she was ready to do it.  Because he had to look after his brother.

Fucking clownshoes.


(Tho you may have been thinking of the very first encounter when Caramon attempted to Rape Tika and she ran off.  At which point, Goldmoon stepped in and, rather than power-word stunning the horny fucker, gave him a speech about despite Tika's minge being gaping and her tits full, she wasn't ready for full on anal.  It was only later, in the underwater caverns when she teased herself apart and screamed TAKE ME YOU BIG WARRIOR LEVEL 9 that Caramon said 'I'm thinking about Raistlin.)


zomg spoilers.

And crap plot.

[Merusk]

I only read the books once, and remembered someone saying "zomg no we can't!"  Given the nature of most of the other women and the aforementioned cockblocking I remembered it being Tika. 

I stand corrected, and pity the clarity with which you can recall these crappy Emo novels.  :-D
