No idea if anyone ever really watched this, but I was (still am) a massive fan of the series. Anyway, I've been sent the script of the last, unmade episode and found it pretty cool. Shame they never made it.

There was a series?

I've just got in contact with a few friends from about 7 years ago that I used to game with. We're gonna do deadlands and d&d. I'm excited since I've not played paper/pencil rpgs in a fuck of a lot time.

Man I don't know if you're in for a treat or not. It's one of those 80's things where you'd probably love seeing it again or will hate it for the fact that it is so cheesey. This can't have been released only in the UK can it??

:heart: D&D. Along with several kids from my preschool, I had an immense crush on the wizard when I was like 3. Thanks Stay :)

Anyway, D&D didn't make it in the states cuz the religious right fundamentalists said it was satan worshipping. OMG! NOZ!!!

I watched it. And I live in TN.

I heard all the Satan stories. I would even take my dungeon books to work to freak the old ladies out. (and read)

I miss my old D&D group. We had fun.

I hate when they tell you the ending, but they don't tell you the ending like that!

Big surprise on Venger (not), but reading the screen play definitely brought back some memories. I could see it all with 80s washed out cartoon coloring.

This is the ultimate nerdom. Congrats you have all achieved a level of nerdiness previously unattained and envied by anti-socialites everywhere.

I figured kids born in the 90's wouldn't remember it.

Oh man, I loved that cartoon. I don't remember a thing about it other than them going through the amusement park rollercoaster to transform or whatever and what they looked like and wielded.

Is there a site to watch all the old episodes? I wouldn't mind reliving a fit of nostalgia.

You can buy them on DVD or download them.

Kinda weird that I don't remember the cartoon. I was big into Transformers when it came out in 86.

I'll give it a look though.

I was born in '83 kthx and yes I remember the cartoon, It was lame. I was merely referring to people being that obsessed that they'd relish the thought of reading a screenplay of the final episode.

Somehow I doubt it. Unless you're some fucking medical retard of course.

OMG I remember that cartoon!!! Just barely, but I remember it.

I am trying to figure out whether I should be excited or horrified right now.

I remember the cartoon. it was decent if not predictable

I vaguely recall watching the series as a kid. I think the lame ass DnD movie killed any chance the cartoon had at a revival along with its Transformer and G.I Joe counterparts.

That movie was SO VERY BAD.

This is a pretty pathetic insult Stray. I figured you to be better than that. Oh well.


Now, if you were trying to imply that I'd be too young to remember the cartoon then I guess you've never heard of the concept of "Rerun".

I guess they don't do such things across the pond.

No they don't.

They do do repeats (r) though.

Pathetic? Coming from some random motherfucker on the internet who can't do anything but critisize randomly and anonomously? Yeah I know who the pathetic one is douchebag.

Nifty Stay with the UK link. I may buy them all (the ones I have on VHS are quite old and have those grey lines running through them).

The D&D movie, btw, had nothing to do with the series. I was disappointed too when my ex brought it home one day, talk about namedropping.

You mean the movie with actual people? I saw it on TV the other day and it held my interest for all of 15 seconds. It was pretty dumb.
