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.

Really bad movies that would make a fun RPG setting?

I love those old Segal films too bad he became such a self-parody.

Iron Sky would make an awesome RPG.

Actually I enjoyed the hell out of that one, but apparently some people consider it a "bad movie" for some reason.

I quite enjoyed it as well. According to the IMDB they are making a sequel that takes place twenty years after and involves the Hollow Earth and Lizard People.

Has anyone nominated Blood of Heroes yet?

I remember seeing this on VHS...a super hero musical with Alan Arkin vs. Christopher Lee...I seem to recall the composer of Rocky Horror did the songs! I have the DVD...must watch again!

S'mon

The songs were great!

I am really looking forward to that one. Turns out there's also an Iron Sky RPG in the works!

Speaking of 1980's fantasy movies, what about the Heavy Metal cartoon? That has a number of interesting sci-fi/fantasy settings within it.

It's mostly saved by seeing Christopher Lee wear this, interact with the muppet creature and sing about how great and evil alcohol is [ATTACH=CONFIG]1915[/ATTACH]

I know about it only because Terry Pratchett referenced it as a guilty pleasure of his.

It's just unbelievable this isn't better known.

Hidden caves, tunnels and ancient ruins
A giant dragon/snake thing
A cult of snake/vampire people who worship the Worm and carry out human sacrifice

Jesus Fucking Christ, is this guy honestly that goddamned stupid? He can\'t understand the plot of a Star Wars film? We\'re not talking about "Rashomon" here, for fuck\'s sake. The plot is as linear as they come. If anything, the film tries too hard to fill in all the gaps. This guy must be a flaming retard.  --Mike Wong on Red Letter Moron\'s review of The Phantom Menace
