[QUOTE="Inez Hull, post: 1667079, member: 5114"] Came across an interview with Vin Diesel for The Chronicles of Riddick in The Drum Media which is a Sydney street press - mainly music but some film. I don't know if it is a transcript of another interview but it seems to be a one-off and as such will be unread by about 99.99% of roleplayers out there. Thought people might me interested to read his comments on D&D. [I]This is a man who was brought up on a world of fantasy, and, like a grown-up child, sparkles at the very mention of one of his primary influences: Dungeons and Dragons. Or, perhaps, one questions, it was just a rumour that Dungeons has spoken to the child within for some two decades. He rolls back on his chair and merely smiles. "I never play D&D," he begins with mock seriousness. "For some reason, they thought that I played D&D for 20 years. They thought that I spent years playing Barbarians, Witch Hunters and the Arcanum. They thought I still played D&D back in the 70's when it's just the basic D&D set. They thought I continued to play D&D when it became Advanced Dungeons and Dragons. They thought I played D&D when there were only three books - the player's handbook, and the DM's guide. They thought that I played D&D as it continued onto the Unearthed Arcanum, Oriental Adventures, Sea Adventures, and Wilderness Adventures. They thought I played D&D at the time when Deities and Demigods was the brand new book. They thought I played D&D when I used to get up to a place called The Complete Strategist in New York." We get the point as he smilingly mouths: I'm into D&D a lot, "It was a training ground for a lot of my adventures."[/I] Please note that spelling mistakes are from the article, attribute any mistakes to Vin Diesel or the interviewer as you please. ;) [/QUOTE]
