Viewing Party/Character Creation…..

OK, folks — here’s my idea.

I’d like to get together and walk through making characters for the forthcoming Dragon Fist playtest, and while we’re doing so, watch some wuxia films for inspiration.

I figure it will be an afternoon-into-night kinda deal. We can grab some Chinese take-out, etc.

Let me know which of these days works better for you:

Saturday, April 29th

Sunday, April 30th

Saturday, May 6th

Sunday, May 7th

Saturday, May 13th

Sunday, May 14th

I’ve got a bunch of wuxia film on VHS, a few more on DVD….., I’m sure you’ve got some as well.

Anyway — respond in comments.

New K-9 Series

So, the BBC passed on a K-9 spin-off, because they want to concentrate on the new Torchwood spin-off.

However, the European children’s TV station, Jetix Europe, will be producing a new K-9 series, which will be a mix of live-action and CGI.

Here’s how K-9 will appear in next week’s episode of Doctor Who:

and here’s how he will appear in the new series:

I have to admit the design is pretty cool. But I’m an old fuddy-duddy, and have a soft spot for the old version….and I’m guessing that Sarah Jane probably won’t be in the new kids series, either. Ah well.
