SPECIAL NOTICE
Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded). However, there is no direct evidence that any such activity occurred. REGARDLESS, BE SURE TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS. And as is good practice, remember to never use the same password on more than one site. While performing housekeeping, we also decided to upgrade the forums.
This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Just saw the trailer and it didn't suck, though it obviously takes huge liberties with the original story. However, TO ME the trailer feels like they got the core concept of the story. As always, please post your thoughts.  Of course, we will see what's what when the actual film hits the screen, but seeing Nick Cage with a shotgun makes me wonder if the writer or director might have played CoC.

Here's HP Lovecraft's original story as a comparison. It's short and among his best.

I am not a fan of Nick Cage. He looks like a human rodent hybrid and has the acting skills of a potato. I can't take any movie seriously with him as a major/lead character.
Which sucks because otherwise I'd be interested in this film.
The notion of an exclusionary and hostile RPG community is a fever dream of zealots who view all social dynamics through a narrow keyhole of structural oppression.

huh? I am surprised. That actually looks not bad really. Obviously takes some liberties to pad it out. But so have the other two notable movie adaptions. And I still rather like Die monster Die! even if it did take a few too many deviations.
