Sheer AWESOMENESS!
Guys (and gals), I just had to share about this so cool documentary? I just watched on my newly discovered favorite free movie site, Tubi. The movie is called Eye of the Beholder: the Art of D & D. just awesome! I remember enjoying all these great artworks as a kid and their still so badass now!
Here's the webpage for it..

but here are some other great ones..
I probably was a fan of the art more and read lots of the books (mostly DraglonLance), but there was my first year of college when I was a heavy player of AD&D. I still remember my first character.. a big, dumb, but oh so badass human warrior. I tricked a dragon into fighting me hand to hand.. in human form.. and proceeded to roll a 20 followed by a 20 with my first hit of my 2 handed sword! :) good times.
I also remember TSR back in the day. did u know they were bought by wizards now? cool! no wonder magic the gathering is so just like D&D was..
