I'd always wondered why Nethack had a Tourist character class, and now I know. I suppose if I read more books, then more parts of Nethack will make sense, in the same way that popular music started to make more sense once I'd started dating, and had my heart broken a few times.
And all through it, I kept thinking that there was no way they could make a movie from it. But it got a bit confusing towards the end, and I figured I'd better Google a plot summary online, and holy shit it's on British premium TV. Sean Astin is in it.
No mention of a US release, which means I'm perfectly morally justified in what I just told my computer to do.
