Ok, this is interesting:

I didn't expect that.

Cool crossover. Who'd of thunk it?

That is pretty cool. Nice to see the advertising.
BTW did anyone else like the D&D commercials on SciFi during the D&D movie ?
They weren't too bad.

This is a good crossover, and I think that with the ad on the SciFi Channel, it may mark the start of a more intensive advertising campaign for D&D.

There are many people who might have little idea of what D&D is, and I think the ads should help. I do not have cable television, but I would hope that this ad campaign has a strong web presence as well. (Did the commercial on the SciFi channel mention the wizards website?)

as long as they keep that commercial that has been running on G4 off it

so, what exactly is this about? just advertising or are we getting a History of D&D program anytime soon?

I thought the commercials were better than the movie.

Its supposed to be promoting some upcoming History Channel thing on the Crusades. Something that is looking to be very, very interesting.
