Life of Pi... hmm, though he only lived a scant 3.14 years it seemed to go on forever...:cool:

Hmm... 5: Dungeons & Dragons... the one done on Sci-Fi was much better. 4: Wing Commander... Projectile weapons in space? really?? 3: Ishtar... Why oh why did I ever watch this pile of Shtako? 2: Treasure of the 4 Crowns... 1: ANYTHING with Kristin Stewart in it. Now, I didn't...

Thanks for the feedback... Yeah, it's not a problem per se... where as I'm building the world from a particular location outward it's just a question of how much is too much I suppose. Though your advice is quite useful in the fact that there are always unknowns that need explination. Odds...
