So?

[Ouch!]

I'm with Araciel on this. Also straight from the camel's mouth, so to speak... R. A. Salvatore has no control over whether or not Drizzt ever sees the big screen. As a result, him desiring to see Drizzt there has no bearing on whether or not it'll ever happen.

They made a Dragonlance movie. An incredibly poorly animated Dragonlance movie, but a Dragonlance movie nonetheless. It's a possibility, at least. Faerun is one of the most profitable campaign settings in the D&D universe, and Drizzt is one of if not the most popular characters IN the setting. If this starts stirring up fan anticipation, they might give it a shot.

[Araciel]

Fanticipation (sorry) has been high for a Drizzt movie for at least a decade, but we all know that the fans are at least 90% fanboys, and any such film would be torn asunder both by critics and those people on the internet.

While I myself don't mind Drizzt, I'd much rather see a more general FR movie with cameos by such characters.

Lawl @ the cutting edge CG in DL movie.

[Gilghamut]

I haven't seen the DL movie, but it isn't worse then say, that *twitches* Dungeons and Dragons......*gasps, twitches* thought I was gonna faint there from the horrid memories. It's not worse than that movie is it?

But, I wouldn't mind seeing a Drizzt movie, the action will definitely be top notched I would think. I would find it awesome to watch a live-action movie with a dark elf ranger slicing and dicing his way through hordes of Orcs and Demons with Icingdeath and Twinkle.
