You should never support the scumbags at Hasbro/WOTC if you are into tabletop games

You can borrow the DVD from the library or buy it second-hand if you don't want Hasbro/WoC to get your money. Even if you've moved on to Pathfinder or something else, it's still a lot of fun.

I mean, borrowing the DVD from the library will make it unavailable for someone else who might want to watch it, which might incentivize them to buy a copy. Also, if it's always checked out and unavailable when people go to try to check it out, it may increase hype/enthusiasm about it. Buying it second-hand would have similar consequences.

I might pirate it if I can get a chance. Doing so a) wouldn't reduce supply of copies of it in ways that might incentivize others to purchase a copy or stream it on Paramount+ or whatever and b) kindof feels like a slap in the face of Hasbro of the sort I don't mind delivering.

I'm fully aware of how petty this all comes across, but, man, thoroughly fuck Hasbro. What a shitty company. Don't underestimate just how much I hate them. Lol.

No, it doesn't sound petty to spend your money carefully. I hope things get better with D&D.
