Interesting that this film no longer seems to be available in any format, anywhere.I had this on my Amazon queue to watch at some point, but never got around to it. Oops. The hyperbolic marketing put me off, "Everything you know about the history of D&D IS WRONG!" No, most of what I know about D&D history is correct, thank you very much.Dave Arneson's contribution to the genesis of D&D, the focus of this documentary, is often overlooked in the hobby, but it's hardly unknown, especially to long-time, hardcore fans. The marketing materials for this film give the impression that Arneson is solely responsible for D&D's creation, and that this "secret" has been suppressed for years . . . . whatever.If and when this documentary becomes available again, if the price is reasonable . . . I'll probably watch it. Hopefully the documentary is better than it's marketing materials suggest.</blockquote>
