Well, you will soon get a chance to watch the movie (I couldn't find a release date). I wonder if Will Smith will be in it?

    I always play as RED, when we're done, it looks like the world has the measles! I love Risk, I used to love Axis & Allies more, but when I grew up and stopped doing drugs, I could never find the time for it... Risk allows similar world domination thrills in far more manageable time chunks.
    Edit: I really don't see the point of making a movie... maybe I should script/film a game of Monopoly with my family since Hollywood seems to REALLY be out of ideas.

    Never played it might have to give it a chance with a friend of mine. I sort of have gotten tired of beating him 6 times in a row in monopoly

    I know the feeling. We had many games that lasted overnight. It's a great game.
