@JasonC still waiting.... ;)

Derpy

@ShadowWizard Had D&D in the title. I was expecting something noteworthy. Didn't live the expectation.

Still, it was better than the Dragonlance animated movie.....

Stijn

Last weekend, me and some friends got drunk and tried watching Sharknado 3. Nobody could make any sense of it. Imho Birdemic was a better movie, and Birdemic is terrible.

Shadow Wizard

@Derpy hehe... didn't see that one. And what about Final Fantasy the movie?

Derpy

@ShadowWizard you said "The movie", so I assume you mean "Spirit Within" - usually people referring to "Advent Children" say "Final Fantasy 7 movie"

First - thank you for reminding that movie exist. Didn't need to. Next time, please fell free to avoid it.

Second: see point one

anyway, as a "thank you", please let me point out that they also had multiple anime based on FF.

Shadow Wizard

@Derpy lol

Final Fantasy: Legend of the Crystals

Final Fantasy: Legend of the Crystals (ファイナルファンタジー, Fainaru Fantajī) is an anime OVA based on the Final Fantasy series of role-playing video games. It was released in Japan in 1994 and distributed by Urban Vision in 1997 in North America on VHS. Urban Vision have since lost the distribution license and to date the series hasn't been released in any other format, such as DVD, following its initial video release. Legend of the Crystals takes place 200 years after the events of Final Fantasy V. It is divided into four thirty-minute OVA episodes spanning two VHS tapes. == Plot == The story takes place...

have fun. I would avoid it like pestilence.... but If you feel brave enough...

the fact they never had a dvd release should tell enough...

Shadow Wizard

think I'll skip this one ;)

Derpy

@ShadowWizard back then, a friend of mine got the first VHS without ever playing a FF game before. We had to convince him that the anime didn't exactly reflect the quality of the games.

@ShadowWizard Complications

Derpy

It is probably on the same level of the infamous Super Mario movie

They had to tell me it was supposed to be a sequel to FF5. I didn't manage to recognize the characters.

>8-( has only ever been used once in here, ever. Now twice.

Derpy

@ShadowWizard I can tell you this:
You still didn't ever use the specific wag chain that would trigger the "Wizard" spell to be awarded.

For anyone who knows me, and is empathetic with me. I made it for my new job! Hooray!

Derpy

@πάνταῥεῖ "New"? Can "advertising a coffee brand in a 20's vintage advertisement" be considered new?

Wait - probably the avatar isn't related to your work.

Bart

@πάνταῥεῖ I have no idea who you are, and I couldn't care less ... :p HOORAY!!!

Derpy

Anyway, congrats.

@Derpy My avatar is highly relevant to my work! That's why I'm wearing it You've gotta find the right balance between what's your experience consuming drugs and what's the real technical relevance of your work. THX for the congrats though.

Derpy

I only consume muffins. And time.

@Derpy I'm pretty sure that isn't actually a vintage advertisement, but just a good joke. Even 20 years ago, the advertisment designers won't have laid such stupid thing ;-)

It misses smileys that are not preceded by spaces, which there aren't enough of to warrant anything special (e.g. when somebody types "hi:)").

I suppose I could add them lemme see if there's any obvious false positives.

No it adds too much noise.
