Get a role in the new D&D movie!

[smetzger]

This is a bad thing. Another movie by the same people means it's just that much longer before we can get this series rebooted. And that is the only hope I see of us ever getting a good D&D movie. Assuming we don't count "Your Highness", of course.

Yeah what the heck, they have some great IP. Why not do a trilogy of 1st rate Drizzt movies?

Klaus could play Drizzt. I mean, it's impossible to tell male and female elves apart anyway.

Dungeons & Dragons' Third Entry

Nerds, rejoice: new info on the third film has arrived.

November 10, 2010
by David McCutcheon

All of you D&D nerds out there will love this heads up: the third Dungeons & Dragons motion picture is in the works.

Not much is currently known about the soon-to-be-in-production Dungeons & Dragons entry, but new info has suddenly surfaced regarding the returning director from the second film in the series, Gerry Lively, being penciled in to helm the project in Baton Rouge, where filming will begin in mid-January, 2011. Brian Rudnick, one of the three writers for Dungeons & Dragons: Wrath of the Dragon God, is set to write the screenplay, according to IMDb.

The first grumblings from the depths of the Internet cavern regarding the third film in the series, titled Dungeons & Dragons III: The Book of Vile Darkness, came from the festering pit of depravity known as Twitter, thanks to the folks at Production Weekly. The particular tweet of interest reads, "Dungeons & Dragons III: The Book Of Vile Darkness is scheduled to begin filming January 17th in Baton Rouge, Gerry Lively returns to direct."

We'll be reporting more info on this upcoming release as soon as it arrives. Stay tuned to IGN DVD for more information about this and other upcoming releases!

Not impossible, but you do have to roll them over and squeeze them in the right spot.

Whats the rolling for?

Whats the rolling for?

Loosens 'em up a bit.
Kinda like softening cold play-doh.

Wow, do I sense desperation. This sounds like direct-to-dvd fail surpassing the horror that was The Dragonlance cartoon. Based on the Book of Vile Darkness, filmed in Lousiana, gotta use the flawed online builder and going to let untested talent be the "main" bad guy?

Sounds to me like a stunt just to try and promote DDI...

You're probably right....

Dungeons & Dragons' Third Entry - DVD News at IGN

Is is correct for me to interpret what I see at this site-- IGN's DVD news-- that this is, in fact, a straight-to-DVD movie?

I was interested until the point where it was mentioned that I had to use the character builder.

For some reason I feel that this is destined for epic fail. Maybe it has something to do with WotC's recent track record.
