You want recruiting? Take a look at the trailer. I'm sold.

I can't decide if this will be a good or bad thing....

I was being very, very sarcastic. Personally, I think it won't have a noticeable impact on our sport in either direction, but mostly I'm just amused as hell.

There was a thread about this a while back. Those are actually Edhellen weapons.

Yeah, Galin was telling me about that. Apparently he had to fill this huge order in some ridiculously short time frame. Hilarity ensued (at least from my perspective, he seemed somewhat less amused). I just finally found the movie 'site, so I figured I'd throw it up here. It's actually a very different kind of movie than I had been told. Meh. I'm probably going to go see it, just 'cause I'm really that bored on a regular basis.

I wonder if it'll say something about Edhellen in the credits?

That actually looks pretty funny, I am sure it is all heartfelt and stuff, but the beatdowns will be worth it.

They had a pre-screening today in my town. I got a couple free tickets from a bar last week-end and took my wife to it tonight. I thought it was freaking hilarious!!! Laughed the whole time!

As far as the fighting goes, its super choreographed, and the game they play is a super cheeze LARP. Bad medievaly accents, references to lamely named spells, etc. But over all it was still cool....I suppose that if you were trying to get someone to come to Bele, and they saw this movie, it might turn them off...idk...

My .02 for now. Time to go horizontal for me.
