While there is a surprising amount of money to be made in the field, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't in it mainly for the guns, girls, glory and the particularly savory Greek ganache or grenadine. |

But that was the point, wasn't it.
Clue, Murder by Death, Student Bodies, all sucked, but rocked as well. |

PBTHHHHT: I love that Tourism Board thing, and have been sharing it with friends. Now, however, they want me to quote sources (my fault a bunch of my friends are librarians). I looked, but can't find it on the current Australian Tourism Board website. To get them off my back, could you tell me where and when you got it (and a url, if possible, my friends love details).
Many thanks. |

any time. You just gave me the most wonderful idea for a shadowrun actually.
I've been tossing around the idea of running a BS run (as in bull shit, not Brainscan) using completely random characters, like the troll w/ Int 1, the color blind incompetent-flaw-wielding demolitions 'specialists', the Face w/ short term memory problems (ala Dory from Finding Nemo), and the gnome albino otaku of course. Problem was I didn't have a run for them... until now... Extraction: Famous improv star... probably w/ ADD Now if I could just figure out how to work a drop bear into it.... maybe doing an appearance on a 'Letterman-ish' show, where some crazy 'Crocodile-man' has one..... excelleentt *Mr. Burns Fingers* (we need a smiley for that) |

Somehow, it doesn't seem like that group would be complete without a vehicle rigger with a highly recognizable face and Phobia:right turns. Former stockcar driver who only tried to turn right once in his life while on his way to the Renraku Arcology mall. His wife died in the resulting crash.

And then he got caught in the Arcology, where Deus was experimenting with Drop Bear/Human hybrids? Or Drop Bear otaku? Which he was forced to race against in a circuit full of only right turns? |

We talking about the animals or the cars? Because really, either one would be interesting. |

Okay, see now I have this image of a Drop Bear spirit possessed VW Bug (a la Herbie) careening down the road.. Why have the rigger when you can just have the car itself? Though this does lead to the whole clown car scenario when the team tries to all get out of the car... they would just have to tie the troll to the roof. On second thought, tie the Troll to the roof, give him an assault cannon and call it "anti-vehicular weaponry". Problem Solved. ... I really need to stop thinking about this.

Hey Plan B stole the screenplay for a new movie I was working, “Herbie Does Seattle”. *Flips to page 52 in screenplay* look here, “The team ties the Troll (played by Matt Daemon) w/ an assault rifle to the roof of the possessed VW (voice acted by Fran Drescher), while his dwarf sidekick (played by Tom Hanks) shouts ‘Its go time baby!’”. I don’t know where you get your information from but I’m beefing up my security. It’s a romance/buddy comedy with a surprise twist at the end. We should start filming as soon as Steven Spielberg contacts me back; it’s taking him a long time for some reason. |

Umm, what part is Ben Affleck playing?
I only ask because neither him nor Matt Daemon can take a piss without the other one zipping him up, Bourne movies aside. |

Here's the pitch: Matt Damon and Ben Affleck as DROP BEAR HUNTERS! *cue the banjo song from Deliverance* JLo can play the tragic love interest killed in the first 5 minutes of the film (Jersey Girl, anyone?)
Scene One: JLo: Oh, what a cute little koala. Come here cute little koala. Awww, he's snuggling my neck..wait, that tickles...AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! -Fade to Black- |

Have her play a lesbian who discovers her feelings for Ben's character after a long and painful process of self realization, only to have her die shortly afterwords.

If you are going to go that far, you might as well randomly throw in Jay and Silent Bob, too. They could be Alanis Morissette shamantic magician's way bongsaber (lawsuit by George Lucas pending) adepts of some sort.

Ben Affleck is going to play the Troll’s assault rifle; I just haven’t worked out how yet. J-Lo sprayed mace in my eyes when I tried to give her a script so I guess she’s out, she must be busy with something else. Jay’s going to play the crazy scientist that builds a super nuke laser to destroy the drop-bear possessed car, but Silent Bob has been strangely mute on the whole issue. Maybe I should call Kevin Costner, this sounds like a movie he would like to direct. PS: you shouldn’t joke about George Lucas, Drop-bears are scary but his lawyers are truly terrifying ;).

It's only fair. After all, all but his last Star Wars movies were a bad joke that he inflicted on us. Turn about's fair play.
Not counting Oceans' 11 then? |

Thought Ocean's 11 had been made when Ben was flirting around with JLo? Sure he wasn't allowed to join his best buddy. ;)

Plan B: That song, BTW, is called "Dueling Banjos". Even though one of the banjos used--at least in the original performance from the film--was actually a specially-tuned guitar. According to The Internet Movie Database, the musicians were Steve Mandel (guitar) and Eric Weissberg (banjo). --Foreigner |

I can't tell if this thread is alive, or undead. Hmm, it is about drop bears.
