Me, too. But I think it's more of a 2000AD film than a Traveller film.Originally posted by Casey:

Hey if that works for you, more power to you, your time and money. To me those weren't misfits. They were walking cliches who knew exactly what to do except when bound by said cliches. In a movie based on the "everyone except our exceptional heroes are stupid chumps" premise. As seen in Alien 3 and other sup-par B horror movies.Originally posted by kafka47:
Ok, maybe, I can retract a few of my words, perhaps Armageddon is the ultimate premise for many of my Traveller adventures where a bunch of misfits get called in to do something the "experts" be they Military, Paramilitary, Merchant, Noble or Other cannot accomplish.
I made it through the movie I think as some sort of unspoken game of chicken with the friend I went to see it. It just kept on piling cliche and telegraphed sleepwritten lines. Really needs the MSTie treatment.Originally posted by Liam Devlin:
Don't hold back Casey, you don't have to sugar coat it for us Tell us how you really feel about that film.
Even at TL 15, there has to be someone who has to take out the garbage and kick the dog. Never let a TL be an excuse for shiny gadgets and hard work.Originally posted by Casey:
Just view it as not being in a high TL area, which I tend to in my Traveller games anyway. TL15 is too close to Star Trek and has less of a hands-on/need for player character direct action for my liking.
He has written a few more issues of the Serenity comic oversees the Serenity RPG line (just checking if it conforms to his vision), if that accounts for SF activity.Originally posted by Berg:
Is Joss Whedon up to any Sci-Fi stuff lately/soon...?
Love to see more stuff by him
