Is this Courtney Solomon's crappy homebrew city?
I'm not sure where Solomon got the idea for Izmer/Ismir, but I definitely think it was his "creation". Whether or not it was part of his homebrewed campaign setting, I can't say, as I don't know? However, Izmer/Ismir has gone beyond the realm of his complete control. (BTW, the city's name is Sumdall, while the land is called Izmer/Ismir.)
I'm surprised to hear that Courtney Solomon is an Executive Producer for this movie. There has been absolutely no mention of him being involved with D&D 2. (I guess it's not surprising considering how everyone crucifies hims for the "style" of the first D&D movie and the performances given by the actors.) Silver Pictures did a really good job keeping his status "under wraps".
IMDb lists Steve Richards (D&D: The Movie, Animatrix) and Wolfgang Esenwein (of Studio Hamburg WorldWide Pictures) as Producers and Cindi Rice (of Ravenloft fame) and John Frank Rosenblum (The Gamers) as Consulting Producers. Alexandra Bouillon (Luminal, Man to Man) is listed as an Associate Producer.
Obviously, Solomon learned that he shouldn't direct or it was decided for him by the powers-that-be at Silver Pictures.
