[QUOTE="I'm A Banana, post: 6298305, member: 2067"] You're basically right, but I think if WotC is clever about this, they won't try to make a "D&D" movie per se. Rather, they'll make a [I]Dark Elf Trilogy[/I] series of movies. Or a [I]Prism Pentad[/I] trilogy. Or whatever. These will all be D&D movies, with the D&D logo on them somewhere, but they won't use D&D as the reference point, they'll use their own worlds. Like, "Dungeons & Dragons Presents: [I]Homeland[/I]" or, "[I]The War of the Lance[/I], a [I]Dungeons & Dragons[/I] series." And even without characters, they can pretty easily tap videogames, where you do often create your own character. They could take almost any adventure they publish for the TTRPG and swap it over to a videogame without changing much of it. ;) Then they can say something like, "The many worlds of D&D have infinite stories in them -- tell your own with the D&D RPG!" And if they're super DUPER smart, they'll let people sell things on some D&D marketplace and keep an eye on the biggest sellers and then snap THEM up for possible multimedia blitzkriegs as well. So Joe's Home Game, if it proves popular with the fans, might become one of the infinite worlds of D&D, too. [/QUOTE]
