After These Messages: Legend and D&D

Evan joined us to watch stuff related to Legend and D&D, since he played a lot of D&D around the time he also watched Legend as a teen.

First we watched Lily’s Song, which is one of the Jerry Goldsmith songs that didn’t end up in the US release of Legend, but which IS in the European release.

Next we watched the preview for Mazes and Monsters, a movie Julia had to watch and discuss in depth on The Skiffy and Fanty Show a few years back.

That preview is kind of goofy, but the movie is pretty depressing. Annnnd, we dove deeper into depressing territory with our next thing, a 60 Minutes segment about kids killing themselves and others allegedly because of D&D.

We don’t really recommend watching this one, because it’s a big downer. Also, content warning for this section. We don’t go into depth on suicide, but we do talk a little about viral challenges that have hurt and/or killed people in more recent years, like the cinnamon challenge and eyeball shots.

After all that we needed a palate cleanser, so we watched this Carnival Cruise line commercial.

This commercial showed up because Geoffrey was searching for Tom Cruise Commercial 1985, thinking he would get something to do with Tom Cruise. LOL nope.

This led Julia to talk about the experience of trying to become a travel agent in the beginning of 2020, the worst possible time.
