[QUOTE="Silverblade The Ench, post: 5245995, member: 19083"] Well, the answer is easy! a) WOTC wants to hit it big and make D&D movies and games, thus getting lots of new players and $$$! but b) Hollywood is so stupid, idiotic, riddled with bean counting talentless, souless drones who can take a fantastic story and turn it into a day time soap opera of mind numbing PAP!!! that Hollywood must therefor surely be the site of Cthulhu's excretory orifice. yes folks, you heard me! Hollywood is the Elder Gods way of turning you all into mindless dumb zombies by pooping out their brain-altering twisted views of reality! As evidence of Hollywood being the "salem's Lot" of the zeitgeist: -U571...ah huh, so it [I]wasn't [/I]Polish agents and the British Royal Navy who got the Enigma machines first? -Clash of the Titans 2, a [I]sequel[/I], WTH?! -Just because a woman has good...[I]body parts [/I]and looks, and maybe the director's beau, doens't mean she's an "actress". -Nor is making an androgenous twerp firing a bow while skating on a shield and making the dwarf a damn [I]joke[/I], acceptable to us bearded folk!!! Damn bloody elves cannot out drink us either, poncy-faced bloody leaf-fondling hobbit-humpers!! *grumbles* So, WOTC is playing up to the Evil Elder Gods by giving them lots of parts in the soon to be D&D movies and games!! Makes a lot of sense when you think about it, and whatch a lot of recent films, doens't it? :confused: :p [/QUOTE]
