[QUOTE="Undrave, post: 7863898, member: 7015698"] But everybody loves Boblin! Honestly, my fear is that the movie takes itself TOO seriously and gets so far up its own lore's ass that the movie is filled with PONDEROUS exposition about SERIOUS BUSINESS dealings of gods nobody cares about and bores the audience. A D&D movie SHOULD be closer to Guardians of the Galaxy and less Lord of the Rings. It's a weird world with tons of weird races and weird monsters (They MUST include a Mimic and an Owlbear!) with murder hobo naughty words going on a quest and cracking jokes at each other's expense. If there was an in-universe way to quote Monty Python's Holy Grail it should even be in there... Any of you ever watched the two The Hero Yoshihiko TV series? It's a low budget (official) hommage to Dragon Quest but it's a hilarious inspiration for this sort of nonsense. [MEDIA=youtube]ZUqRHU_ECk4[/MEDIA] Playing D&D is a load of fun... the movie should be too. [/QUOTE]
