I wasn't too interested at first (the posters do look quite cornball) but the preview changed my mind.  I got several chuckles and one full belly laugh (from the "Strength Testing" scene) just from the trailer.  Hopefully it will live up to the potential.

No point to the post, just curious to see if anyone besides me was playing.

If not, you should check it out.  Its a surprisingly fun (and easy) game to pick up.

Table-Top Games / Anyone playing Heroscape?

Besides myself and a few others, anyone playing Heroscape by Hasbro?

I picked it up a couple of weeks ago, and got a huge kick out of it.  

According to the story line, the final battle between Good and Evil is starting.  To this end, heroes and villians from all different times and realities have been summoned to Valhalla to duke it out.

The game comes with a HUGE assortment of interlocking terrain tiles (water, grass, sand, etc.) that fit together like building blocks so you can arrange them in countless ways.  The instruction book includes about a dozen scenarios (complete with battlefield layouts.)

The main set comes with 30 different pre-painted minis, and they run the gamut of styles.  Futuristic robots, Samurai, Viking Berserkers, Matrix looking "Agents", Orcs, Demons, and even a Dragon.  Each unti has its own strengths and weaknesses, so play is pretty balanced.

Supposedly, even though they have no director, the studio says "The movie is still right on schedule for its planned May 26, 2006 release".  (Hutch Parker, president of 20th Century Fox)

Former director Vaughan did not want to move his family from London, so he opted to depart the production.  

Wonder if this will be like the next Superman movie? 6 directors before they finally get one.
