Being able to meet Wall Street expectations during a period where discretionary spending will be significantly curtailed will be his ultimate test. But based on the last few years, its hard to argue against the successes he's brought to Hasbro.

It might be a feel-good fluff piece, but that doesn't mean its not based on some solid evidence.
 


Brian Goldner has done some fairly amazing things with Hasbro the last 2 years or so. They went from a company on the downward spiral that many viewed as a dying giant, to growing movie powerhouse.

Even before Goldner was CEO, the old top guy was very upfront about Goldner being responsible for the turn around both with the movies and on focusing Hasbro's core business.
 




Well if they got a decent author to write a book like maybe Greenwood, Hicks, Wies, etc and then found a good screenwriter that could understand the book and the game in general they would make a decent movie.

So far it seems the movie scripts were written for scene and just bad hack-jobs at trying to throw some of the rules into them.

They need to license the name to someone worthy of making movies, after getting the license back and then a good movie can come along after Courtney is removed from involvment and WotC/Hasbro as well.

I know I could have mentioned Salvatore, but lets face it humans couldn't even see in the Underdark to tell what was going on during his youth for a movie to even be made from it!

DragonLance suffered from mixed methods or it would have been the best movie, but someone saw fit to add CG and regular animation to screw it all up.

What was Hasbro's first toy movie anyway?
 

They should get these guys to do it:

Who apparently are now working at Blizzard. If they were to do a CGI D&D movie, Blizzard actually. If they made a distinctive style (so not their usual, semi-exaggerated) for a D&D movie be really neat. They are EXTREMELY good at their CGI.
