[QUOTE="Zardnaar, post: 7540173, member: 6716779"] Sometimes its not what you say but how you say it. I didn't go see Ghostbusters because I don't watch a lot of movies and I like the originals. If you want to make something new that is diverse etc make it original and make it good (Like Orange is the New Black). If I made something with Drizzt in it the Drow would hardly be in it except for Drizzt. You would know the Drow are evil due to exposition, the 1st evil ones would be something like a pair of glowing eyes in a dark cave with ominous music. It would also be animated and I would be after a Drow Cersei Lannister rather than some bwa ha ha evil matriarchal cartoon. Or a female Grand Admiral Thrawn from Star Wars. I would build up to it rather than fo with something liek Homeland (the Drizzt book). The Drow are a problem you basically have to CGI it like Green Lantern, animate it or use something that is close to ye olde blackface. Drizzt books are also young adults, I tried rereading them and the old ones are better than the new but they're not that great, other D&D books have aged better such as the Lynn Abbey Darksun books, anything by Elaine Cunningham, or even something like the Iron Throne an old Birthright novel.
