[QUOTE="Urriak Uruk, post: 8604151, member: 7015558"] I'm fairly certain that D&D/Hasbro have a pretty good, concrete contract with Paramount Pictures, and I doubt either party is interested in changing that. Streaming is always possible, but it'd go to Paramount+. Eh, maybe. Thing is a matter of tone to me. The box, and images, look mostly like standard 5E "slay the monster" fare. The tv show is... much less violent? Like there's violence, but it's a bit more PG than PG-13 like most D&D is. And the adventure itself, plus the image of the dragons fighting, looks more like generic D&D like Phandelver than the cartoon. If Venger was on the cover I'd be more inclined to agree, but this doesn't seem like more than an homage to me. The other stuff just seems like easy branding for the D&D social media and merchandise team to leverage. I'm surprised they weren't using it years ago (and they kind of were). [/QUOTE]
