Another childhood story RUINED FOREVER
« on: March 03, 2012, 09:41:56 pm »

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snow_White_and_the_Huntsman

Yeah, it stars Kristen Stewart, with Thor as the Huntsman... and Snow White becomes a skilled warrior and leads small army of battle-hardened dwarves. Which is kinda kickass actually.

But... Eight dwarves. EIGHT DWARVES?!

Thank you, guy who produced Alice in Wonderland, for messing with my childhood memories.

And now I have to delete all my Dwarf Fortresses because they HAVE BECOME A LIE with their 7 dwarves. Only 7 dwarves, that's so old fashioned. We need 8 dwarves like we need sparkly vampires!

Gaahhhhh!!! *stroke*

But yeah if they can pull it off better than that King Arthur movie maybe it won't suck balls.

Wrong forum?

probably.
But i went and read the plot summary anyway and i must say it sounds like the creation of a tenth generation sibling inbred.

Crap, I triple-checked that I was in General Discussion.

How can I notify someone to move it?

You're deleting dwarf fortress because a movie said Snow White had 8 dwarves?  Did Twilight retroactively make Dracula sparkly?

'Course he did. He called it Frankie Jr. and gave the remote control to a kid who used it for fun and to help people as a superhero.

Everybody knows that.

To put it simply, Dwarf Fortress is the Black Metal of video games.

But... Eight dwarves. EIGHT DWARVES?!
Cue heartwarming story of redemption for the lost 8th dwarf, who as so callously written out of the Grimm's story.

Maybe he left them before they were famous because of artistic disagreements?

King Arthur didn't suck for me because I just switched off my logic centres and went into autopilot. Beep boop trebuchet click click whirrrr.
The ice lake scene was cool though.
