Do they even have the legal rights to do a D&D movie or could this end up in the courts? I mean I can't see Warner Bros. Being okay with this or Hasbro if they aren't getting a cut of the money.

They don't have to use the D&D name, hell they could make the characters OGL and base it off Pathfinder.

Mostly I think they will do their own thing and file the edges off so the name D&D doesn't appear anywhere. The cartoon can just be about the adventurers doing whatever.

I’d be surprised if they weren’t talking to WotC to make the whole thing work. Licensed material included or not.

Considering WotC is promoting the Kickstarter on the official D&D twitter account, I'm guessing one way or another, all legal & copyright issues are taken care of.

I'm really excited for this! Plus, several of the stretch goals are some really interesting one-shots, so that's extra bonus to tide us over for the year and half it'll take to make however many episodes get funded.

At 1.95 Million now. That counter is just churning.

Edit: Wow okay. From the time it took me to look at the time, and then read through to the second page and type in my comment, it had made another 10k.

$2M incoming! This is hypnotic to watch! I need to tear my eyes away! Looks like Matt Colville's record is about to be broken.
