Awesome - this is right up my alley (even though I'm not a hobo). I'm there!

Sweet. All those Magnet films hit netflix.
The DUNGEON MASTERS GUIDE City of Brass cover is good and bad at the same time. While its very representational of a high level adventure, it sends a clear message to the dumb: Satan is going to cornhole Miss USA with a big red member and theres nothing science or the military can do about it. - Gene Weigel

Good to know he's not dead. Always liked Rutgar ever since Night Hawks.

I used to work with a guy who was friends with Roger Avary and got to meet Rutger Hauer during the filming of Mr. Stitch -- said he was utterly crazy and totally awesome :)

Rutgar aged terribly (he must have stopped working out). He actually looks better in this hobo movie then I've seen in a while.

Incredibly twisted, enjoy with extreme caution - and hide your women and children first! :twisted:

This movie title makes me think of games like Wabbit Wampage and The Creature That Ate Shebuygan (sp?).

Working at a homeless shelter makes this movie even more hilarious and a must see in my book.
I want to hear what you did in the dungeon, not the voting booth. Politics and rules minutia both bore me in my opinion.
