    So, the movie will just be about five fifth grade girls getting in to a fight while each one is forcing the triangle around trying to get it so say that one of the Jonas Brothers is their soul mate? Is that going to be the conflict in the movie? #tronlegacy

    I will always remember the -awesome- custom made Ouija boards I saw at the SD ComicCon in '07. Apparently, they are made using a lazer cutter/engraver/pyrographer via vector art... the artist made Star Wars, Star Trek themed boards, ect.
    Anyone know who this is? Awesome work, never got a business card... #tronlegacy

    Casting Alert!!

    Signed to play the part of "Board, Ouija" : Keanu Reeves.

    Said the director - "he has the perfect balance of star power and personality to really bring life to the board."

    I think Hollywood believes Jumanji can work with less interesting board games. And Jumanji wasn't even that fun when played in real life (I never got to play it, but thinking about it now, it would probably be pretty boring).

    The Monopoly film will only be good if the film ends with all the characters getting in a physical altercation and someone is sent to the hospital. #tronlegacy

    @Emily Bryan-Reeder: and a pretty sweet one at that. There was a post-movie game, though. I've played it, it was one of those co-operative us against the game type things. we never won because my friends are so competitive the teamwork aspect was lost on them. At least it was better than Zathura. that board game stank. #tronlegacy

    @Emily Bryan-Reeder: A picture book about a board game. Which essentially works out to the same idea.

    from wiki:
    "It has also been suggested that the word was inspired by the name of the Moroccan city Oujda."

    I've been there!...I wasn't bored, but being alone in eastern Morocco is can be kinds scary...

    I'm betting this will be about a bunch of hot teens using the board and then they all start getting killed in creative ways... #tronlegacy

    Man that would have made for an exciting game.

    I'm glad they never did the D&D movie (which did suck) based on the rules. 3 hours to get to the first dice roll for character creation. The movie ends with "Oh boy, I got 11 for strength!" #tronlegacy

    One of my best friends is Catholic and she will not even consider touching a Ouija board. Apparently the Pope says they're evil or something. It's strange how legitimately frightened she was by the Ouija board in Paranormal Activity - that was the part I thought was really not believable. As a kid I always just fucked with the person who brought it...foretelling that they'd marry Jimmy Carter or telling them they would die tomorrow or something. #tronlegacy

    @enderwiggin13: As a Catholic and stout follower of Pope Sidious the first, I say that these boards are the single most hilarious bit of card board I've ever seen. I don't avoid them because they're evil, I avoid the people who believe anything about them. #tronlegacy
