Tasty Dungeon Eats

Does it taste like chicken? Using the popular anime Delicious in Dungeon as inspiration, we delve into the depths of the D&D Monster Manual and discuss the tantalizing question: How would each beast taste, and what's the best way to prepare them? From succulent dragon steaks to crispy owlbear drumsticks, we'll use our culinary imaginations to envision the flavors and textures of fantasy creatures.

Sequel or Reboot?

When properties like Bill & Ted, the Matrix, or Ghostbusters are redone, it ain't always a straight-on sequel. Is this process truly creative? Are such films inspired riffs or cynical milkings of the fanbase? What's going on? Are we running out of movies?
