D&D Movie/TV Here's The D&D Movie Trailer!

"Who needs heroes when you have thieves?" The movie arrives March 3rd, 2023. Here's the trailer! When they said it was inspired by Guardians of the Galaxy, they weren't kidding! We have dragons, owlbears, mimics, gelatinous cubes, quips, and more!



There was also a clip shown at San Diego Comic Con where the party cast speak with dead, and got to ask five questions. Also, apparently, the D&D cartoon characters from the 80s have a cameo!

I am excited!

I love that they jump INTO the gelatinous cube to avoid the displacer beast.

Anyone else see a Red Wizard of Thay?

Yeah in a couple scenes. In the upside down unleashing the evil horn thing and they're fighting one at the end who teleports around the battlefield. (Maybe the same one)

Also speaking of that evil horn. Is it an existing piece of D&D lore?

I’m betting money that’s Hugh Grant’s character, with him foreshadowing earlier in the trailer by flipping a gold dragon coin

Looks like more like a copper dragon to me. Plus I'm pretty sure he's supposed to be a bad guy. I think they'll stay on brand for that.

Also anyone else notice the super chunky red dragon? Making me remember Out of the Abyss and Themberchaud now

Well they were in a cabe/mine that looked like a forge…

All I can say is HELL YES! Action, humor, Dungeons, Dragons! This looks like the filmmakers have nailed the feel of a session of D&D around the table. Can't wait for March!

This one appears to have advantages that the prior D&D movies didn't have. Like a budget. And actors. And a couple of studios that really, really, really want to have a new franchise to sell movies and TV shows under.

"Appears" is the important word here. Like others, I am cautiously optimistic...

Ok this looks genuinely fun!

Remember new brand is “Monsters without alignments” but I don’t disagree with your thought process here

 

[Mind of tempest]

I am lost on to why you see this as so good exactly?

Also jumping into a gelatinous cube is some hilarious on screen meta gaming. “Look I know I can survive a few rounds of being eating by acid”

 

[Chaosmancer]

I think that’s a statue…

I could see it being an animated statue, but it is clearly moving and acting like a dragon.

They have a sorcerer, could be an illusion

Earlier in the trailer we see a dragon statue that looks just like it…

Probably because (1) kids wanting to play the game is cool, (2) they think druids are cool, and (3) Kaijus are cool. It’s win win all around my friend!
