D&D The Movie
2 years ago
Well do you remember the clusterfuck they did in 2000 ? No ? Good for you.
Now they tryed their hands again at D&D and it looks like they actually took the rulebooks and read through them first.
I don´t know how they wrote the skript but somehow I have the impression they made some chars and just played a round and then wrote everything down because the movie has strongly these feeling. You can see when someone rolled good or bad.
While the plot in itself is more on the simple side (most twists can be seen a mile away) Some things made me just giggle (Holgas Husband or the talking to the dead scenes)
The Monsters where really great animated (Displacer beast and the Mimic)
I was a bit disapointed by the Tabaxi (CatPeople) in the movie The looked like fursuiters in cheap way to big suits.
Nerverless the Dragon was cool and totally done right.
Now I know you should never take such movies to serious and that is the whole point of the movie.
Have fun do stupid stuff and laugh afterwards.
Well my 2 cents are this is a good solid fun movie from gamers to gamers.

And when the GM messes with them
In my opinion they did make one mistake in the advertising. They should have dropped something in the first trailer that made it clear that it was taking place in the Forgotten Realms.
Epecially after that 2000's clusterfuck.
I get the feeling that the people that make the trailers often don't really know what they are doing or know their movie very well.
They only get an overview nothing more and most times they just don´t care
it just wants to be a fun movie for D&D players and normalos
