Masters of Fantasy - TSR: The Fantasy Factory - A Docu-Promo For TSR (1997)



I'm willing to give credit where credit is due - I found this link thanks to ENworld.

It's a nice little piece put together by the Sci-Fi network.

I find it interesting that Lorraine Williams is dressed in black with a mostly black background, so you can't clearly see how "Jabba the Hut" like she is.

There is nothing hard hitting here, but it an interesting view of the hobby from 16 years ago and quite entertaining. 23 minutes, so just long enough.

Damn, I own the bad CGI DVD they keep showing pieces off...

  1. 1997 - I'm guessing WoTC actually bought TSR while this show was in production? Hence Lorraine Williams' prominent role, I can't imagine they'd have bothered to interview her if she hadn't been the current CEO when they started. And they were still in Lake Geneva.

    Erm, why is her size worth mentioning? I'm curious - if she were a man, do you think you would have found it as 'interesting'?
