Dungeons & Dragons: Wrath of the Dragon God! (Updated: Oct 09/05) Spoiler Free Thread

You sure he wasn't talking about D&D 2...?

 

[Fast Learner]

Seeing as how he quoted Dagger saying, "As I have stated before the first Dungeons and Dragons movie is not as bad as you all make out to be," I'm pretty sure he was talking about the first.

That said, everything I said about the first is true of the second: it is by no means one of the worst films ever. I even liked it, unlike D&D1.

I guess I'll wait and see when it comes to Sci Fi.

FWIW, Amazon.com says they'll be selling the DVD for $18.73.

It's not on Amazon.co.uk yet.

Clemency Burton-Hill, who plays one of the main characters, appeared in La Femme Musketeer, a made-for-TV movie. I thought she was pretty good in that and wished she had had a bigger role. YMMV.

Hey all!

Having seen the...ehh..."film"...I can say the only thing worth looking at is the actress Ellie Chidzley (who plays....snicker..."Lux the barbarian"). She's got gorgeous eyes and nice legs. Sadly, she can't act to save her life, nor did she get naked at all--which might have saved it--but you can't have everything.

So are you saying she only gets by on her 'lux'?

...sorry.

Hey Zander mate!

I swear the Rogue, Nim, from the movie has exactly the same voice as you Zander.

I'll probably get the dvd when it comes out (for the special features...I already have the movie).

If she is the one playing the human wizard, then she was okay, although it was the Barbarian girl who put a spell on me.

Should make impressions easy then.

I was planning on getting it too both for the film (which I haven't seen) and for the bonus features. The version they have on Amazon.com is region 1, i.e. North America. My DVD player can play disks from anywhere so if you can make it for Dragonmeet in December, you're welcome to come over and watch the extras.

If she is the one playing the human wizard, then she was okay...

She plays Malora. I'm not sure what class she is as I haven't seen the film yet. There's a pic of her on this page.

...although it was the Barbarian girl who put a spell on me.

You mean you're smitten by the barbarian; barbarians don't cast spells. You should know that.

I'm no fan of the D&D1, but man, if that's your view, I can only guess that you just haven't seen very many movies

I would rank D&D1 as MUCH better than Kris Kristoffersen's Knights or The Creeping Terror.

Trust me- I'd watch the D&D movie on late night TV before either one of those.

I'd watch infomercials before either one of those.

Damn! Are you trying too hard to prove that D&D film is not the worst?

I may not like Knights or The Creeping Terror but I definitely know I didn't like D&D: The Movie ... except for Zoe.

 

[JVisgaitis]

For the record, I was talking about the first movie.

I'm no fan of the D&D1, but man, if that's your view, I can only guess that you just haven't seen very many movies.

I have a catalog of over 800 DVDs so I've see my share of movies. Yeah, worst movie of all time is pretty exaggerated, but that doesn't mean that D&D doesn't suck hardcore. I'll tell you what, looking at other films in the fantasy genre, D&D is definitely at the bottom of the list. Its just really sad when you can't take a big property and make it cooler then Hercules and Xena when you have a better budget and a great actor like Jeremy Irons. Hell, the logo even sucks. Bottom line there is no saving that movie and there are a dozen other B fantasy movies I'd rather watch.

Hey! Don't make me do a point to point comparison of the awfulness of The Creeping Terror as compared to D&D1!

I'll do it! I mean it!
