[QUOTE="Tonguez, post: 7862992, member: 1125"] None of those elements are particularly outlandish, [LIST] [*]Faerun - generic fantasy setting No# 43 [*]The Eye of Vecna - ghoulish artifact (like that other giant eye in a well known movie) [*]Vecna - a powerful dead scorceror (like in that other well klnown movie) [*]A gold dragon - spends most of movie invisible or in human form, cool transformation scene later in movie [*]Gnomes - midget comedic releif [*]Drow - we’ve seen Dark Elf villains in Thor, so the plebs know what to expect [*]Torm, Tyr, Ilmater - background details for a group of cool armoured Knights/Paladins [*]Half-dragons - big monstrous tank for the party [*]Tieflings - a sexy devil girl villain [/LIST] Most of those things we’ve seen in other fantasy movies before, but for some reason DnD movies just fail to capture the allure of other fantasy movies, although other than Lord of the Rings and Narnia, what are the the big fantasy epics of the past decade or so? So if I can hazard a guess at a synopsis: a party of angsty fighter, midget comic releif, monstrous tank and mysterious masked ‘ninja’ are on a quest to recover a ghoulish artifact associated with a death god before Malekith, Kurse and hot devil girl use it for badness. The heroes are assisted by an elite band of Knights Paladin lead by a powerful elder warrior with a wonderous secret... [/QUOTE]
