Lars and the real girl – The delusive love story

What a nice coincidence, after yesterday’s work my best friend and my girlfriend convinced me to join them in one of the local shopping malls… …after too much food, hot white chocolate drinks and a piece of apple-pie we met Dani and Sarah, who planned to attend the sneak preview…

Insurrection

The second part of six is done. Honestly I start to understand why I was not overly fond of the first part… Thomas M. Reid did a good job on the second one – this one is about the journey of a handful Menzoberranzanyr to Ched Nasad to find out…

And so the story began…

Friday was a special day – it all started with a communicative afternoon and turned into a fun(ny) night. Funny in the meaning of – (en)joyful and under the very words of “The lamb is heaven! The milk is the path!” Before you regard me as a lunatic madman and…

Dissolution

So I started with the War of the Spiderqueen Trilogy… I have to admit – it is not the book of choice – it is more like a few puzzle-pieces I would like to know the get the whole picture. But it did start quite nice… I’ve not been that…

Shadowbred and Shadowstorm

First and foremost: Happy new year – have a good start into 2008 and may you be more healthy than I currently am ;). Besides health I had a very good start into this year, having found my apetite for books again and very recently finished with the two available…

Tai Chi (Masters)

Finally a new film – I mean an old film but a new one for me to report on… Lately I had the possibility to watch Tai Chi Masters (in German this film is just called Tai Chi). And I really enjoyed it. The plot is quite straight-forward – of…

Bonsai Aquarium

Finally a new motivation for us (not primarily from my side) – since we have too few things to do and lack ideas ;). Ok enough sarcasm, we saw a very interesting book today – Bonsai Aquarium (Bede Verlag) which motivated Klaudia to take a look into it and buy…

Serenity

I’ve heard from this film a while ago – bought it via play.com and had it for several weeks (if not months) lying around. But yesterday I finally found some time after a quite tiring business-trip and it kept me awake – over a time even thrilled. Serenity is interesting…

Paycheck / A Scanner Darkly

Staying on the topic of cyberpunk – I recently acquired two new dvds… Paycheck is one of them and after watching Ben Affleck and Uma Thurman in quite creative roles, I have to admit this was one of the better science-fiction films lately. The film itself tells the story of…

DM Genie

Der sogenannte Dungeon Master’s Genie – ist für mich mittlerweile zum unersätzlichen Tool geworden. Während ich (noch?) Abstand davon nehme, das Tool wirklich für den Ablauf des Spieles heranzuziehen, mitunter aufgrund des Feedbacks meiner Spieler, dass zuviel vorlesen nicht positiv auffällt und die Stimmung mitunter darunter leidet. Dafür hat es…
