[QUOTE="painted_klown, post: 7657213, member: 6785485"] I think smiteworks has a good idea with the animated series. I feel that if there were to be a well made D&D movie (I would like to see live action ala LOTR), and if it were to be well received, then that would certainly open the floodgates for an animated series that could tell the further exploits of the group introduced in the theatrical film version. Have the same party/main characters introduced in the movie be the focus of the animated series. Hasbro could do very will with a toy line, and this would provide a (IMO) a very high level of exposure for D&D that they are not currently getting. If D&D were to become part of current "pop culture" so-to-speak, then that alone will help propel D&D to what could be a never before seen level of popularity. People become emotionally invested in well written characters, and that sentiment can keep viewers tuned in...as well as purchasing product, and talking to their friends about it. This would (hopefully) lead to new players starting up, and get old players to return to the game. I must admit, one of the biggest influences in me choosing to DM 5E over Pathfinder (I play in a PF game as well, but didn't buy the core rulebook) was that 5E was so well received, and a lot of the word of mouth about 5E was that it was a nice combination of older editions (for the old school feel) wrapped up in a modern game package. Additionally, the brand name of D&D influenced me as well. If D&D could become part of the mainstream pop-culture, I think many people would find 5E to be an inviting, and FUN game to play. This should lead to books selling well, and 5E having a long and enjoyable lifespan. :) All IMO, of course. [/QUOTE]
