It was a terrible movie full of the worst D&D cliches. I went to the first movie out of a sense of loyalty to the game I love. The only way I will see the second movie is if it can get a few good reviews by some critics in a couple of newspapers. I am no slave to critics and their opinions but at least in a critical review I can learn something about a movie outside the hype.The first D&D movie made the tremendously flawed Star Wars, The Phantom Menace look like Shakespear. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f641.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":(" title="Frown    :("  data-smilie="3"data-shortname=":(" />No matter how craptastic this movie turns out, I hope it makes a ton of money. I want the D&D brand to be ever increasing in value and to attract more players to the game. The fact is that I don't care if all the kiddies are inspired to play the most insipid types of campaigns imaginable, most of us started out being pretty craptastic as players and DMs ourselves. However the more popular the brand becomes, the more money the brand makes.....the more money poors into the coffers of publishers of D20 publishers in general. More games, supplements, modules, etc. are the result.Crappy movie or not I hope it draws all the starry eyed D&D newby kids in to fire up their munckiny little dreams, bless their little hearts. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />Chris</blockquote>
