[QUOTE="Nebulous, post: 4406503, member: 31465"] Funny you should ask. i've been thinking a lot recently about a D&D movie, although i never thought of it in terms of 4e. My thoughts? (and this is a pipe dream i realize, but what the hey) [B][SIZE=3][COLOR=DarkRed]Saga of Old City[/COLOR][/SIZE][/B] by Gary Gygax. His first novel, followed by Artifact of Evil and then Sea of Death (with a few others after those that i never cared for). D&D should go back to its roots. I cut my gaming teeth on Gygax's early books, and to me they still embody the essence of D&D. Sexy elves, brutal violence, and big ursine animal companions for bald druids named Curly. As an amateur screenwriter i've frequently thought about cracking out these three old, old novels and adapting it into a trilogy. It would need considerable work, but it would be fun regardless. They would easily be PG-13 movies, R-rated preferably, but that would hurt a theatrical release. Yeah, you can tell i've thought about this! Anyways, it will probably never happen. I don't know who owns the rights to those novels, or what it would take for a production company to buy the rights to make it into a film. Still, Saga of Old City, man! Greyhawk Adventures!
