I'm not sure if I have plans to go to AR yet. But I do think I'll be going to AE. Also most of the ARC's anime activities have been moved to a new club: SFU Anime Club. You might find more information there.

yeah the book was called "Rule 34". I had the idea since before I found out about the book. But the book encouraged me to step up and develop the idea.

Inbetween semesters I may be able to run a one-shot/multi-shot (2-4 sessions).

I was thinking of the following and I'd like to know what people are interested in.

Pathfinder:

- Spelljammers. Based on the 2nd ed DnD campaign about giant vessels that can move between planets, the party would be passengers on a fantasy vehicle (giant whales, squids, shells) that fly through space.

- Journey to the Moon. This would be a continuation of my monster steampunk saga where a team of explorers take a steam rocket to the moon to obtain moon rocks for a mad scientist. You don't have to know anything about my previous campaigns, just that it takes place in a steampunkish victorian world where magic and myth is thought to be extinct (but is actually hidden). 


Feng Shui:

- Cybercops. The world authorities are unable to handle new digital threats to global security and police departments are building new cybercrimes departments dedicated to fighting cybersex crimes, piracy and terrorism. The players are random experts assembled to combat evil online and off. They're given a crash course on nettiquette, a license to kill, and all the authority they need to bring internet wrongdoers to justice.

Holy shit you're going to burning man? Every year I say I'll go and I never do. If this is the year then I'll see you on the playa.

hahah I wish. Have fun. It's probably going to be b-b-bumping. Some of my friends are going. I guess I can pass you their FB contacts if you want to chill with random cool people (they're really good guys though.) I'll be having a wild fun time of my own working and toiling in obscurity. Hahah.

Come on guys. It's like a 10 dollar minimum to join. All you have to do is walk. Considering the high sugar diets and heavy exposure to computer screens that many people in the arc live with, it's very likely that most of you will get cancer soon. When you're dying on your deathbed and thinking of all the things you didn't get to do, remember this post as you shed your final tear.

I usually go solo in the mornings (11-ish) but I'm trying to go earlier (7:00 am). I don't mind going with other people, but my weekly schedule is unstable. I'm trying for monday-thursday consistently, but I'll rarely get all four days in a row.

The ARC has had some pretty good female gamers and despite the love of sausage festivals the club members for the most part have grown beyond a lot of the stereotypes and the stereotypes about making stereotypes.

Woah. Dude. C64. I was a kid when I got to play with one so I didn't get too into it, but I remember the days when 64K was a whole universe of possibilities. FF6 is by far one of my favorite games. I've sort of taken a break from gaming over the last ten years, but I'll still occasionally replay FF6 or one of the hacks like Awful Fantasy.

I actually met some all-ages events promoters (a husband and wife couple) awhile ago. I could give your their contacts if you're interested in talking to them. They actually have a show coming up soon that I've been meaning to check out, I can forward you the info if you're interested. Or just message me on FB if you do that:

I'm tarek, I run a writing workshop every semester and I used to be involved with some old poetry and zine initiatives on campus. It's been awhile since SFU has had a really good creative or cultural publication so I'm naturally interested in your academic focus, haha.

Also flash gordon for obvious reasons including but not limited to queen.

Also DEAD/ALIVE aka braindead

Also I was looking up criterionpic for possible things for a public screening. It would probably have to be something more popular and accessible. Although zardoz and barbarella are on the criterionpic list movies like that won't be a big draw. I remember the old cinemaSFSS nearly getting shitcanned because they kept playing weird stuff like that and no one was showing up to advertised screenings. It may be better to play classic stuff with general appeal like iron giant, ferngully (avatar 1.0), or I'm even thinking top gun for some reason. Some reason being DANGER ZONE.

Also there's a ten minute, obligatory, 70's style , mirror room, psychedelic sequence for no real reason. It's like enter the dragon just came out so everyone had to had mirror maze sequences.

sean connery's worst movie or best movie? I thought it was sweet. I really like john boorman movies even when critics and society pan them or declare them to be horrible. The story is such:

The world is broken up into a hidden dystopia and a brutal outland. Sean connery lives in the brutal outland where they worship guns ... literally. He hijacks a giant flying head and flies it to the hidden dystopia filled with babes. They use psychic power to make him obey, but ultimately he's sean connery and has sex with them all and kills everyone. In the dystopia they live forever and got rid of violence, but without violence no one can get a boner so people stopped having sex (again this is spelled out very literally). The end result is that the advanced people eventually just lose all motivation and are content to sit around doing nothing forever like vegetables. But when sean connery starts killing and screwing people, it wakes them up. At first, they try to kill him, but ultimately declare him their new god. He then has everyone killed and runs off to go live in the giant head and raise kids with one of the women he screwed. Basically it's just a dramatized metaphor for what sean connery spends all his time doing anyways.

technically danger 5 is a miniseries, but still it could be watched episodically. It's really spectacular and perfect for group viewings.

Hey guys. Apparently in the future, ARC screenings will focus more on sci-fi, fantasy, cult, classic, or forgotten gems. I'd like to open up a thread to get people talking about the kind of stuff they'd like to see. I'm all about retro weird stuff including cultish or so-bad-it's-good animation, exploitation and action genres. Some of it can be painful to watch at parts (a lot of the movies have large segments of filler or just plain shitty cinema), so I think that whoever's in charge of screenings should balance non-boringness, with the unpalatable nature of retro asthetics with MSTability. Anyways here's some that I'm interested in:


Robot Jox. In the future, warfare is settled through giant robot deathsports. It's like live-action gundam that failed hard and ruined america's future in giant robot movies for close to 3 decades. As is the norm for 80's movies the russians are the bad guys and the cold war was expected to carry on post-2000.

Zardoz. A dystopian sci-fi where sean connery kills and has sex with everyone, thus saving humanity. Also he wears a speedo for much of the movie. This trailer really won't explain anything.

Barbarella. 60's jane fonda is a space secret agent that saves the universe by having sex with everyone including angels and machines.

Barbarella (1968) Trailer

Toxic Avenger 4. I don't know where to start. There's an abortion fight and someone dies of AIDS as part of a finisher move. A bit of trivia: lloyd kaufman/troma is the guy who gave the south park guys their start in the entertainment industry.

And one that people should very seriously consider is...

Danger 5:
