I took inspiration from The Goonies, Treasure Island and other pirate-y tales for my idea. And yeah, there was a specific reason why the puzzles and challenges were incorporated into this particular dungeon crawl. "The first challenge was to FIND th…

Oh, I _like_ that. I will incorporate that Uncharted puzzle into a dungeon someday. A few years back I created a puzzle-filled, pirate-booty themed dungeon that I was quite proud of, and that my players had a blast solving. There were tangram puz…

I can point to the specific head-splodey moment when Kingsman went full-on comedy. ;-) Ha ha, I didn't even consider The Martian (though it's an award-winning comedy). You're right, I should have thrown it in there just for fun.

Yeah, I'd agree that the embedded videos issue is still the #1 concern. Map improvements would be my #2, for totally personal reasons. I'd love to see the square map requirement removed, the zoom capabilities improved, and the customizable flags …

I tried out adding the imdb links to each individual movie in the previous set, but I think I'm going to scrap that. That was _really_ labor-intensive and time consuming. And in that last round came the first (but I'm sure it won't be the last) t…

If you haven't seen The Ice Pirates, I can highly recommend it. Sci-fi comedy schlock from the 80's, with a surprisingly good plot. ...and Space Herpes.

And yeah, I've heard rumblings about a Mallrats 2. I doubt they'll get Affleck back into Fashionable Men, but I'd think the rest of the cast should be up for it. Although after seeing Clerks 2, I'm not sure this is a good thing. ;-)
