That... That's just WRONG.

I wonder if they know they got the definition of the term "grandiose" wrong...

I think I've figured out a way to defeat the second one, though... you apparently can't get hit points back if you can't read... Hmm...

I'm gonna go wash my eyes now.

The movie actually sounds like a blast...JC as action hero is a side of the Savior I don't think gets nearly enough attention. (Though Jack Chick's The Sissy is a shining exception. "It'd be like fighting the Bionic Man!")

The second one, though...dear God. I wonder if this is actually getting played by anyone? Let's hope not. If it *is* being played, I want to write the Gurkha Supplement. If you want to kill brown people, try starting with them. I'll send flowers to your funeral, if there's anything left to bury.

Really, aside from the fact the lead looked WAY too much like Brian Benben when shaved, it was okay. For an X budget film, where X is less than the catering budget on Pluto Nash.

Some of the role-playing boards I hang out on are in hysterics about the game. Did you note there are no guns in the game? A well balanced team of opponents could decimate the Mighty White Power Rangers in one round of combat.

Did you ever hear the joke German soldiers told about how to determine what nationality your were facing? It starts with "We fire a shot and..." then describes the responses from various allied forces. one of them is "if they are suddenly in the trench with you, they're Gurkhas."

The American line is: " they fire a few rounds, miss, and ten minutes later artillery hits us
