Is Valygar a secret child of Ben Stein?

Sir Kenyth · 09-18-2001, 10:16 AM

Poor Valygar. He's not a bad fella, just awfully dull. Between his pic and voice it kinda seems like Whoopi and Ben Stein had a love child

. Tell me I'm wrong?

Compare scripts.

Valygar
"Magic is foul. Magic is foul. Magic is foul."

Ben Stein
"Bueller, Bueller, Bueller"

------------
Ben Stein
"And has an ingredient to moisturize. Wow."

Valygar
"Here it is. The Sphere. Wow."

Heh,Heh!

Hmmmmm! Guess I'm the only one to find it funny. Maybe no one else knows who Ben Stein is? Doh!

Ben Stein was the guy who played the teacher in "Ferris Buellers Day Off". A classic popular movie from the eighties about high school kids skipping a day of school for mischeif and mayhem. He also does the "Clear Eyes" eye drop commercials. He also has a game show called "Win Ben Steins Money". His trademark is a droning monotone voice that no one else can get just right. Valygar came close though. Whoopi Goldberg of course, has the same hairstyle. If you're from another country you'll probably have a hard time recognizing these actors or the movie. I didn't think about that I guess.

yeah, he kinda resembles the strange offspring that would be produced in such a situation

i think he is the quiet existentialist type, thus his way of speach.

i have him in my party for the first time as a more or less "perminant" member. he seems to hold his own rather well. but he also has a ring of regeneration and the sword something-something The Drinker. So i'm not healing him every 10 seconds.

It's simple. Once the Planet is hurt, it gathers Spirit Energy to heal the injury. The amount of energy gathered depends on the size of the injury...What would happen if there was an injury that threatened the very life of the Planet? Think how much energy would be gathered! Ha, ha, ha. And at the center of that injury, wil be me. All that boundless energy will be mine. By merging with the energy of the Planet, I will be come a new life form, a new existence. Melding with the Planet, I will cease to exist as I am now. Only to be reborn as a 'God' to rule over every living soul.
