That’s my hope. I also understand that just because I like something doesn’t mean most people do. So ultimately I am sure I will be fine. I do really dislike the current Warlock and my work around is I just don’t play it.

Unlike most people I hate the current Warlock and much prefer the UA version.

If I had to give the movie a letter grade it would be a B but I hear some of your complaints. I agree the pacing was a little off and some times it felt like too much dialog and too little action. Some elements such as the Holga- halfling love story were too silly and also slowed the pacing...

Agreed. Yeah there is a lot of magical thinking that in someone else’s hands Star Wars would be better. Like most sprawling franchises it has its hits and misses but overall Disney has done well by it. In my opinion Lucas has lost his touch. The prequels were not very good. Some of the...

That is factored in. Believe what you want. The belief that with the movies, merchandise and other cotent they haven’t made the money back is magical thinking.

I believe they have indicated explicitly this is not the case.

Disney broke even or better on Star Wars by 2018. It is an incredibly profitable franchise. I have heard Lucas wants it back but Disney ain’t selling and the cost would probably be prohibitive. I would guess tens of billions at this point...

Yes. The prequels were shockingly bad. Bad writing, bad acting, shockingly dull at times.

This is false. Disney has made money on Star Wars. In addition to films and tv shows the licensing of merchandise is very lucrative.

Thank you. I am willing to concede that some of the people debating whether this is an edition change like 5th edition and not driven by animosity however I also see a lot of the usual characters who don't play 5th edition at this point and have been vocal in their nearly constant criticism of...

At this point I really wish that WoTC had retooled the DMG and MM and instead of updating the PHB had offered a book of optional rules like weapon masteries and things like that.

Not trying to be rude but I don’t understand what you are trying to communicate.

The real irony is few people are arguing that Tales of the Valiant is a new game but a lot of people argue that the updated rules from WoTC are. It may be a legitimate discussion as Morris indicates but it is clear it is driven in large part by animosity of some people on these threads towards...

Well there couldn’t be a sequel anytime soon with the WAG strike anyways. But I think this movie will end up making money and has potential to grow into a franchise. It’s not there yet but I think we will see other D&D media products either tv or movie in the relatively near future. i.e. the...

Yeah I was looking forward to some do the changes like weapon masteries and changes to the Warlock but am concerned they will be dropped.

This. I was never really confused about the plan and I have never been concerned about mix and matching the old subclasses and new.

I don’t use alignment in my games but this would be chaotic or neutral good not lawful evil.

Neither a hit nor a flop. Not everything is binary. I would say a modest success but not quite as solid as other more established franchises. But from what I read a lot of movies are disappointing this summer with the exception of just a few well established franchises which supports HAT as...

That would be awesome.

Yeah it is way too expensive. None of the eBay copies are ever gone when I look because they are priced more than the market will bare.
