Dungeons and Dragons 2

All I can say is ...

**twitch twitch**

I mean, look at the first film. Jeremy Irons is known as a highly restrained actor, yet in this film he was chewing the scenery worse than William Shatner

Will the second be any better?

I sincerely doubt it

I, for one, enjoy watching a good train wreck. This should be fuuuun. We ripped the first one apart in the theater and I plan on doing it one better this time.

I think we should organize "EN D&D2 parties" throughout the land, and all go see the movie on opening night. Well, maybe during the opening week--which will probably be its only week in the theaters.

I don't know if "train wreck" is adequte to describe what we will end up seeing. But, with a former cinematographer for a director, hopefully the film will at least *look* nice.

Well, if it is anything like the first I think it is being generous. Usually a train wreck is so bad that you can't help but look away. I wish the D&D movie was that captivating. Hey, at least no one died filming it.

I hate to be the optimist in the group, but let's not count our "Plan 9" parties just yet. I want to see the budget neighborhood, and I definitely want to know if someone's got a darned script that will actually get filmed like it was written.

The first movie was not good, but then again to hear the cast and crew talk, it sounds like the picture was cursed from the beginning and was a miracle to be made at all.

Where does the line start? :\

At the door to the suicide booth.

They could've at least called it Dungeons & Dragons Second Edition. Man.

 

[Welverin]

No, Advanced Dungeons & Dragons would be the right title for the sequel.

 

[NiTessine]

Well, for once we'll be getting a sequel that cannot help but be better than the first part.

Apparently, it's hardly even a sequel. From what I've heard, they're trying to distance themselves from the first movie in terms of story, characters, events... probably the setting as well. Who knows, they might end up making something watchable. Me, I am optimistic.
