They have asked about other fantasy franchises, even "Bright", the Netflix version of Urban Arcana.
Good point, maybe part of this is to figure out their marketing angle.They have asked about other fantasy franchises, even "Bright", the Netflix version of Urban Arcana.
Another good point. Guerilla marketing aimed at D&D nerds.Seems to me this survey is all about building speculation about what might be in the movie. It is certainly too late to influence what is actually in the movie (except maybe for some easter eggs that have already been filmed).
Campy can be great if done right and played up - Xena and Hercules are fine examples. Where it goes wrong is when something campy tries to take itself seriously.I can't tell if these are all elements in the film, or they're considering for further films, or just kind of random.
My main worries are:
- Too campy. I'm ok with MCU, but it might be a bit jarring if in a fantasy world.
I dunno - if the D&D movie is anywhere near as humourous as GotG they'll have a hit on their hands for sure.And GotG is too much.
Yes, this would be terrible.- D&D game terms in the dialogue. Please no "I'm a high level paladin!" Or "He's going into his berserker rage!" Focus on making a good fantasy film that uses D&D lore - not endless easter eggs that take away from immersion within the story.
I think the guerrilla marketing campaign angle makes the most sense. Rile up the hardcore fans without stating anything...I think these are actually a list of locations visited in the movie, I think there is somekind of prison break in Icewind Dale for example and we know Red Wizards are in it so Szass Tam and Thay make sense too.
But its weird that they have specific locations like Longsaddle, but then listed Faerun, given ALL the other locations are on or in Faerun.
They did ask what age group you are in and then list exact ages rather than groups.Well, they don't say "during" they say "around." I started with 3rd, but I was aware of D&D broadly speaking since the late 90's as a kid, through video games and magazines..
