"Magic is what makes fantasy fantastic," someone says, "you can't apply rules to them or else it loses wonder!" I respond, "Sure, but if you want to write them you will certainly want to know how they work." Writing is all about execution, and I find applying some basic laws of physics to magic systems make them more understandable and realistic. Here, I'm going to outline my basic method for developing a magic system.

I am guessing that he flipped the wheelbarrow upside down. Now the bottom of the wheelbarrow was in the sun and would warm up. this would in turn destory the bond between the ice and the wheelbarrow freeing the wheelbarrow from the ice quicker then it would be to melt all of the ice

Movies and TV / Re: The efficacy of Hollywood's choice in content
« on: August 23, 2005, 12:41:49 PM »
True but with R rated movies you need to rent and build sets, lighting (a lot more then with animation) location, permits, zoneing laws, lawers to do a lot of legal issues, Special Effects, and trying them into a live actor. Multiple takes, and so on. So I am not sure but I would think that Real movies might end up costing a whole bunch more in the long run, because in animation is more of a fixed cost not a lot of hidden costs that come up.
