OUR EDITOR RECOMMENDS
To quickly review, Hasbro filed the lawsuit first upon word thatSweetpea -- producer of a 2000 D&D film -- was working with Warner Bros. on another D&D movie based on Chainmail, aboard game from Dungeons & Dragons designer Gary Gygax. In response, Sweetpea brought counterclaims, arguing that it still retained rights from a 1994 deal and that Hasbro couldn't license Universal Pictures to make a D&D film. In August, a judge denied Sweetpea's summary judgment motion, saying it was "premature" to settle the score at an early juncture.
