    [​IMG]Tonight we've got an article from the Los Angeles Times, an interview with the director of the new movie Iron Man, Jon Favreau. Here's a bit of what he said on his experience of Dungeons and Dragons as a child:

    D&D background

    Some filmmakers get their start making shaky home movies, others catch the bug in a high school drama class or maybe through an art institute where they put paint to canvas. Favreau has more of an eight-sided education.

    "It was Dungeons & Dragons, but I wouldn't have owned up so quickly a few years ago," Favreau said sheepishly.

    "It's rough. It's one of the few groups that even comic-book fans look down on. But it gave me a really strong background in imagination, storytelling, understanding how to create tone and a sense of balance. You're creating this modular, mythic environment where people can play in it.
