I could run Sifu as far as the combat actions are concerned and you run him as an NPC all other times until Eol returns. You'd just need go over his character with me and let me know what his mindset is so to speak. With Wolf off at the Atmo would give me a way to be in the possible upcoming action.

Topic: White House Down... What did you Think? Subject: White House Down... What did you Think?
Just got back from seeing White House Down and I have to say I liked it a little better then Olympus Has Fallen for one main reason. The pairing of Jamie Foxx as the president and Channing Tatum as his rescuer. The two together on screen while still playing on the seriousness of the situation still managed to effectively add a comedic element that Olympus has Fallen did not have.
The premise once again is terrorist mercenary’s take over the White House. However the way the bad guys in this movie, highly trained former soldiers along with radical homegrown militia, do so is more stealthy and still somewhat bloody it’s no where near the level as they did in Olympus.
Honestly, though Olympus had way more action and explosions and Gerald Butler makes a much more believable hard ass good guy then Tatum, there was just that chemistry between Foxx and Tatum that brought out a good feeling watching it. Oh and lets not forget Tatum’s young daughter, though used as every other family member from Die Hard, to Taken, to most good guy vs. bad guy family on site flicks, she has a spunk all her own when the time comes.
So if you’re looking for a good action picture with just the right amount of humor here is hopefully a good choice. As with all my movie threads feel free to post your reviews but as always please no spoilers.

Topic: Man of Steel… What did you think? Subject: Man of Steel… What did you think?
Overall I thought the Movie was good and was believable in most ways but for 1 as discussed below. I liked how they flashbacked with Kevin Costner and continued to use Russell Crow even though as Superman’s Dad he does die in the beginning.
Michael Shannon as General Zod did a good job though there were a few moments in the film where he, I don’t know what, seemed to lack something. I do hope the next Superman movie, there are at least 2 more planned, continue to move the story forward. Though I prefer Marvel I am looking forward to a possible Justice League movie to see how it compares to the Avengers and I hope Henry Cavill will continue the roll of the Man of Steel.
However there was one thing that I did not like and that was the level of destruction caused to ‘Metropolis’ If it had been a real city the death toll would have been worse then anything in real life. Yes it’s a movie but is it not supposed to be believable in some ways? Well all I can say is go see it and feel free to post your thoughts here, but as always no spoilers allowed.

Topic: Treasure Seekers Subject: Battles End
The battle over and the healing begun Crow sat cleaning the dust off the pommels of his swords. His quick thinking to use the pommels as blunt weapons instead of the blades had proven successful against the skeleton pirates. As he cleaned and kept an eye out for danger he could not help but watch as Tohmaz began to prep for something he called a ’Rain Dance’.
This dance was supposed to act as a mass healing spell for those wounded who joined it once started. Crow having not been wounded in the brief fight had no need of it and in truth was wary of it. Being an Elf he had never heard of such healing and though not scared of such magic he was unsure of it.
For now he would clean ‘Twinkle Twinkle‘ and ‘Little Star‘, watch this rain dance, and as the bard Elyra keep an eye out for more enemies..........

Topic: Voyages of Rocinante - Serenity/Firefly RPG Subject: There be Ghosts here Cap'n
As Wolf led and John followed to the personal lifters directly above the main doorways they both could easily see the panels powering them were clearly without power. Having no choice but to climb the iron bar ladder built into the shaft beside the lifts the two men were about too when an eerie voice was heard by both above them.
A quick look at one another with the same question - did you just hear that? Wolf put his finger to his mouth to stop any talking between the two of them. Trading the assault rifle for the shotgun he signaled to John to place himself in a covering position. Then Wolf slowly proceeded up the iron ladder alone.
(OOC: Gonna be real cautious and on alert. John is hopefully in a coving position with the AR.)

Topic: Treasure Seekers QnA Subject: Finally a game post from me :)
Ok per the map am moving to the East to rejoin the rest of the group.
Also as no one has told him about wearing the eye patch in his pocket he will not put it on. With him being away from the party per the map he would not have heard the yell about doing so being fixated on the Undead pirates.
Honestly I never thought of that till the last few Q/A posts so I will not use player knowledge in game.

Topic: Treasure Seekers Subject: A run to the East
Well this is not good thought Crow as he first saw the horde of Undead headed the groups way. Of all the things to face Undead were more of a problem then most. With only swords to fight with, the sharp edges not made for destroying Undead, his ability at doing damage to them would be reduced.
Thinking quickly he drew both his longsword ‘Twinkle Twinkle’ and his shortsword ‘Little Star’ and reversed them in his gloved hands intending to use the pommels as blunt weapons. Moving quickly he yelled to Amur to follow him as he attempted to rejoin with the rest of the party in their charge to the East.

Topic: Treasure Seekers QnA Subject: Back
Ok here’s my two cents. I agree that we continue to charge East, hit those skeletons in front of us and break through. However I say we do not stop to fight them.
I think it would be much better that once past them we continue to run until we meet up with the crew of The Toothless Dragon. Per one of Hammer’s early posts stated they are set up in prepared positions to help us if we get in trouble. Well I think this qualifies as trouble. Once we reach them THEN we stand and fight with better numbers and from a defensible position.
