[QUOTE="johnsemlak, post: 2748278, member: 7233"] I have little knowledge of such things, but I am going to guess offhand that a Harry Potter license might be a tad expensive for Mongoose, right now. It must be one of the most valuable properties in the world at the moment. I would think it would have to be handled by a 'big' RPG publisher (i.e. most likely WotC/Hasbro). Plus, I think the bigger publishers would be crazy to let HP get snagged by a significantly smaller publisher (unless the big boys simply determined that a HP license wasn't worth the hassle or costs, in which case I'd predict that the result would be no HP RPG, for the near future). Monty Python is a good guess considering hte 'Holy Grail' clue, but my question is, how much material is there in the film for an RPG? It gets quoted extensively at RPG tables, but it's not an RPG world really. I can''t imagine it being anything but a one-off parody RPG release (which woudl be a big release admittedly, and could work that way). I think Indiana Jones is as good a guess as any, as is Dune.
