Isn’t this like the 5th DnD movie? I mean the ones before were shockingly bad, but they still exist.
I hope they make a sequel. This was just flatout a fun movie.
It was excellent as a fantasy adventure movie, excellent as a D&D movie, and excellent as a Forgotten Realms movie. It could have been any one or two of those, but to hit all three angles so perfectly was just so spectacular. I really hope we get a sequel with the same creative team.
That was honestly one of the best movies I’ve seen in quite a long time, I’d definitely love another
Give me more dragons and let them have agency in the plotIt’s a simple adventure movie with likable characters, a good cast, a plot that captivates but is not unnecessarily complex, excellent humour and none of the many references to DnD feel forced at all.
Easy 9/10 imo.
I’m just afraid that Hollywood execs will take exactly the wrong lessons from it, as they usually do. They won’t see it as a successful fantasy adventure movie that underperformed because it came out between Mario and John Wick, but as a failure because it wasn’t mostly a carbon-copy of modern Marvel movies, and trusted its audience even a little bit.
It was such an enjoyable piece of cinema. So nice I saw it twice. Breaks my heart that Zack Snyder will be allowed to continue to make over-hyped flops while these folks are stuck in limbo.

That’s a bad-ass quote. Is it from something or an original?

I loved that movie, so like a good D&D campaign, of course it’s up in the air when it’s happening again.
One of the few good game adaptations
Wasn’t there speculation that the D&D “series” would switch casts and tell a different story every time?
