Yes, I remember it was a shoggoth (I can see how you love them ;o)

I guess it would be very tempting... :-)) Though, typically, not seeing in plain light the thing is often an interesting choice (and it may be closer to the original spirit). But I doubt they would resist the temptation of showing it fully. Let's hope that they would resist the temptation of adding a love story and some "good vs evil" things ;o)

I'll approach it with the same attitude I'm approaching Tron: Legacy with. I know someone is probably going to dissapoint me but I can still hope.

Yes, when they see it, the protagonist thinks of the Underground for how fast it is moving through the tunnel. H.P. also mentions proto-eyes and gelatinous substance in its desciption

Quoting del Toro:

"ATMOM is a delicate project to push through a studio: no love interest, no female characters, no happy ending...

BUt i believe its time to resurrect the BIG TENTPOLE horror movie. The EVENT HORROR movie. Like THE EXORCIST was or THE SHINING or ALIEN or JAWS in their time..."

Woohoo! At least he got the love interest and happy ending out of the way!

Plus:

"Ron Perlman may play the role of "Larson" "

Double woohoo!

You just made my day Too bad the movie is not going to happen before 2013..

Now that this movie is pretty much solidified, it sure would be a good time to start working on a Mountains of Madness expansion. Might as well tie in to all the movie excitement! Of course, it will hopefully come out before the movie does, 2-3 years is too long to wait.

Ashecan Pete just always looks like Bruce Campbell when ever i look at his picture.

Also, this thread is what a gate burst must look like.

But... I *like* Tolkien's goblins ;.( I NEED CONSOLATION!

I think Nick Nolte for Ashcan Pete would be good.

(man I really would have like to seen that deleted message. I bet it held the clue for the whole Arkham Horror game. Darn AO and their devouring everything in site)

Frik ding durn frak had I known it was already brought up here I wouldn't have reposted about the movie.

Curse you FFG Moderators for taking away our Off Topic. Bring it back now or be prepared to only succeed on rolls of 6 from now on.

I still need consolation for the Return of the King. I don't need them making another movie I'll need consolation for.

Oh God, I know.

Did I just see Elder Things in the promo for the new season of South Park? I can't find stills or video evidence, but I swear I saw three of them: eyestalks, wings, radial feet, the whole nine yards. Did anyone else see that, or do I have to roll a die for my Sanity?

you mean devoured?

Cripes, now I have to figure out which episode. Not sure if I should thank you for this or not.

(enters stuff in Google)

Yup, in the epsidoe "A Bicyclops Built for Two." It was one of Alcazar's brides. Pretty blantant two, kinda like the Rust Monster and Beholders in their world. Gotta love a show written by gaming geeks.

No, apparently it had another gate burst.

On the positive side, it is easily identifiable as the new Off Topic thread.
