Well this sure confirms they are going for the “fun” version of D&D. Definitely less interested now.

When will you all learn? Any movie made to milk our nostalgia titties is going to end up leaving us disappointed and angry.
Every single time.
Every single time.

Hi two years ago, Vecna is suddenly relevant and I had no idea it was a real D&D thing!

Tons of potential, but given how woke-garbage D&D(WotC) is nowadays, I don't expect anything but woke garbage as a result.

Same thoughts. Almost the same plot about stealing some shit and fighting a dragon. Just different cast and no Jeremy Irons.

it looks like they tried to fit every familiar/common DND trope/monster/plot/character all into 1 movie. looks like an absolute mess.
I felt cringe watching the trailer, like can't they make a DND movie that doesnt feel like a video game. The trailer narration where they basically explain the plot didn't help.
What are the bets the term "dungeons and dragons" is uttered in the movie at least once. Just in case people didn't know.

I liked the Owl Bear.
Honestly wish they would not cram so much into a movie. This kind of thing would work so much better as a series, that would slowly flesh out the characters to a point of coming together for the good of existence. The other major issue is that Game of Thrones did this much better to a point. Magic stops being magical if it is everywhere. Magic should be a thing of wonder and not displayed as often is one can see clouds in the sky.
This will fail.

23 seconds into the preview.. black dragon spews acid, the ground is steaming from it but horse and people run though it without any problem or reaction.
Instantly self neutralizing acid? or mildly warm steaming water on a cold day?
I know, insert "neeeeerd! .jpg" here
But it bugged me enough to unlurk a moment. Thumbs down, but maybe they will suprise with a good movie anyways even though they have no D&D nerd consultant on the production team.

Show me where in the monster manual it says anything about the breath weapon of a black dragon leaving behind a persistent ground effect?23 seconds into the preview.. black dragon spews acid, the ground is steaming from it but horse and people run though it without any problem or reaction.
