This is a question for... Culture 20!
Do you know if I'm full of crap about that lisp thing? I did a google search and didn't come up with much... Wikipedia wasn't much help either.

Hmm, you might be right, I vaguely remember hearing about this somewhere. And yes, it would be very Raistlinish to put on a show like that.
In certain areas in Europe it is considered sophisticated and royal to use the guttural or French R even if it wouldn't normally belong to the language. I'm glad Mr Sutherland didn't go there for inspiration. Would sound rather... painful.

A cough drop? 
Based on this clip, I'm happy with Kiefer's performance. He sounds almost exactly like I imagined Raistlin would sound.
The occasional lisp is an interesting touch.

Thanks, I was having trouble with the sound on this clip the first time a downloaded it, the second time it was louder, but he had the lisp. I wasn't sure if it was my computer or Kiefer. THANKS!

Bupu, you have been a good and true friend to me. You saved my life and the lives of those I care about. Now you will do one last thing for me, little one. Go back. I must travel roads that will be dark and dangerous before the end of my long journey. I cannot ask you to go with me. |

The interview was pretty entertaining. |

Lamassu, try right clicking on it (I am asuming you have a PC) and save the file to your desk top, or whereever on your coputer and try it from there.

That was an awesome article! Looking at the stills of Raistlin actually lifts my spirits about how good the animation will be. Yeah, I know it's not going to be very innovative or cutting edge, but like I said in an earlier post, once we get past that and take in the movie as a whole, I'm sure we'll enjoy it and get all giddy like school girls (I will at least  ). My only gripe is for some reason I can't seem to play any quicktime movies (before anyone asks, yes I have the program application) from these articles that Shane's posting. Bah! I waited this long, I guess I can wait another 6 days. Ooooooooooo, this is better than christmas!

Alright, roll to see if you hit the dragon with the staff. A 1! You rolled a 1! MWAHAHAHA! Ok, you take a swing, but the rope has you spinning, so you miss and hit the wall, which causes you to drop the staff. What? No you can't roll to see if you were able to catch it; the dragon just ate you!"
...LMAO!!! Yep, sounds quite familiar...

Ummm, is the sound quality on my laptop bad, or does Raistlin have a lisp(sp?). It's funny that I can't speel that word. LOL
Back to the interview, I can just picture that game session. That DM sounds like on of my old DMs. "Ooops, roll to see if you knocked a rock off into the well, oh, too bad, you did. Alright, roll to see if you hit the dragon with the staff. A 1! You rolled a 1! MWAHAHAHA! Ok, you take a swing, but the rope has you spinning, so you miss and hit the wall, which causes you to drop the staff. What? No you can't roll to see if you were able to catch it; the dragon just ate you!"
LMAO! That must have been awesome! LOL
Great job, Shane!
