There is a new D&D documentary movie in the works scheduled for release in 2013. They're looking for anyone that may have some insights, stories, etc. Sounds like they could have saved some time and just sat down for a few hours at GaryCon. I'm sure there are a number of users here that could help make the movie fantastic, fun and most importantly accurate. http://www.examiner.com/rpg-in-national/dungeons-dragons-a-documentary#ixzz1RPyW5eBi
It could/should be interesting. Seems like the makers are serious and passionate. Maybe someone can arrange an advance screening for Gary Con 2013... The foreword was written in Nov 1973, so that must be the basis for the anniversary date.
