White Noise. You could rip its plot off verbatim, if you wanted, replacing the main character with the group's street sam. Why the street sam? Because that way, he'll get all the more freaked out when he discovers a way to talk to the dead (indirectly). :rotfl:

I think Potter is a tad on the fun side for MIT&T, they would be much more serious I assume, though magic would be soo much better if they had teachers like Dumbledor and Hagrid.

Ok, so noone shoot me for this, but I have to say it...
For a good insight of what it is like to grow up as a dragon... Puff, the Magic Dragon. Imagine what its like being so powerful that all u do is bring harm to your metahuman friends... :-( |

Pulp Fiction! Life should be more like Pulp Fiction, with random acts of gruesome violence that are hilarious in their frequency and unpredictability!

...and miles to go before I sleep Vladimir, miles to go before I sleep. As to Big Trouble., I agree, not really Cyber but it is a good plot for a team heavy with shamans & adepts. I'm planning doing an adaptation of it fairly soon. ------- "I want a Winnebago, with Burgundy Leather Seats..." "I want World Peace." "We can't do that, We're the US Government." "I want her phone number" |

No matter how hard we want to.
Actually, the first two weren't that bad. The third one zigged when it should have zagged. |

I finally got around to watching 'Foolproof' starring Ryan Reynolds. It's a great look at Running.

Bring me the Head of Alfredo Garcia Not only can the movie be easily adapted to Shadowrun, but a reference was made to in Prime Runners. |

Ah, this is obviously some strange usage of the word 'old' that I was not previously aware of.
