D&D Documentary Set for 40th Anniversary

Looks like there's a D&D documentary in the works, set to debut in 2013 on the history of the game. From the Examiner:
Dungeons & Dragons: A Documentary will be a definitive look at the game Dungeons & Dragons, its history, appeal and effect. A game like no other, with influences far-reaching and subtle. A feature length film, shot on HD video. 
There's not much more info at this point--including whether or not this is an official project of Wizards (it doesn't look like it). That may be a strong point since they'd likely provide a more balanced look. However, a solely independent project could possibly have issues getting access. I wonder if they'll be able to incorporate any interviews from Gary or Dave before they passed. Stay tuned on this one.

And here I thought Chevski was writing a book, not producing a documentary...

;D

If I were doing as many things sub rosa as are attributed to me, I'd have to have several clones toiling away just to keep up.

Oh, I've said too much ...

@Paladin, the fact that you utter his name and he appears is some kind of crazy internet magic! You should come around and do that more often.

@James, I would have assumed Grognardia is the book. It's just not the paper kind. ;)
