Our panel consisted of Dan, Chris, Delk and Mosley for this top 20 of 2017 show.
I hope everyone enjoys it.
I had some problems at the very end with the system and there is a little bit of buzz during the interview. I think I have figured some of it out but I am STILL trying to make sure the guests and myself sound good with no buzz. Which is a WiP.
Thanks For listening!

As the title and many warnings state this is part of our “spoiler alert” series in which we review, spoil and discuss movies.
So that’s your final warning!
Myself Kirkman and Riddle have a blast just talking all things Last Jedi and all things Star Wars.
I hope everyone enjoys the show.
And as I say on the show, we don’t care if you love it or hate it, have your opinions we love to talk junk and have opinions too so please respect everyone else and don’t pick fights.
That being said we all get a little (well maybe me more) ranty at times in the show so just sit back and enjoy don’t take em personal if you don’t agree.
And for pete’s sake let’s get some discussion going on the topics!!
Tonight Dan and Chris have a half news and half gaming show.
This also includes spirited discussion about Super Hero movies and the formulaic nature of them, (including the recent Thor Release).
Then we touch on a bunch of other Trailers which arrived this week, and upcoming news on TV and other Movies.
Then the second half is all about Games Played!
These include Flamme Rouge, Alien Artifacts, Merlin, Clank, Quartex, and much much more! Thanks for Listening and Happy Holidays!

Thor Talk– Terrible “movie” but boy is it fun!
Next Point– People don’t really want Comic book super hero movies. They want regular movies with some people dressed as super heroes who occasionally do something maybe once or twice,that’s “super”=== See Winter Soldier or Arguably Ant- man or Civil War.
Dan’s 10 things that make up a (non back story) Hero Movie (seen it 10000 times)
See hero fight minor villain, use some fun powers but pretty easy fight
Show Villain quick back story on how they become a villain
Super hero back at the real world “fitting in” or love life etc.
Villain has his coming out party maybe or maybe not thwarted at 1st by hero
Hero Struggles with something other then villain
Hero fights villain 1st time or 2nd usually to villain getting upper hand or getting away
Villain then devises the ultimate plan (taking advantage of innocents or finding weakness in hero)
Hero once again in real world seeing how villain or hero actions affecting world
Big fight Starts off with villain plan working, but ultimately Hero figures something out and wins the fight and villain is defeated
Epilogue === After effects of fight, all is well set up next villain or hero or just leave that for post credit scene.

(From Wiki)– A dungeon crawl is a type of scenario in fantasyrole-playing games in which heroes navigate a labyrinthine environment (a “dungeon“), battling various monsters, and looting any treasure they may find. Because of its simplicity, a dungeon crawl can be easier for a gamemaster to run than more complex adventures, and the “hack and slash” style of play is appreciated by players who focus on action and combat
What would we change in the definition?

Campaign Vs Stand Alone
Fantasy vs Not
