D&D Movie/TV Do you think the D&D Movie will be good?

[schneeland]

I expect it to be solid entertainment and better than everything we got before, but probably not exactly a movie you will remember for years.
I might actually go and see it in the cinema, though convenience will probably win if Paramount manages to finally provide 4k, HDR and Atmos sound for Paramount+ over here.

My gaming group is planning an outing to watch it. This is significant because we switched to online gaming with the pandemic and have not really switched back to in-person since.

I wish there was an option of "I'm not sure" and "I'm not sure I can judge that in regards to it's target audience."

Because to me this is going to be a complex adaption to pull off and not fall into the trap of being too much like a Guardians of the Galaxy spinoff or too like other offerings. But also, if they're going into the mainstream and want to keep that mainstream while giving them an option to explore further, they have to be careful about how much lore and background they pack in, and what potential obscure things they do.

I don't think I am the target audience though. My relationship with fantasy is weird... and I really am not a huge fan of films. There's obviously ones I love and enjoy but I find that for such a wide world and concept, they would be better going down a longer paced type of media, like television, as they quite obviously plan to have a number of sequels to this further down the line. I'd be much more likely to watch it then.

My gaming group will be going to see it, all five of us. Maybe not on opening weekend, but soon thereafter, no doubt.

I don't think it will be bad. I don't think it will be good either. Unfortunately, this poll has no 'meh' option, so no vote from me.

My current gut feeling is that it will be enjoyable and worth watching again for fantasy fans from time to time but not strictly good enough for an equally resourced sequel.

Is it possible that you're an agent of Neutrality?

It doesn’t say ‘bad’. It says good or not good. Your answer is ‘not good’.

I like a bit more stratification to 'not good' apparently. But sure, if I had to choose between the two, 'not good'.

We need a middle option, because my answer is "maybe, but I'll definitely see it in the theatre unless the initial reviews are appalling."

What I've seen so far looks like B tier Marvel. Which is a mostly good time.
