[QUOTE="AdmundfortGeographer, post: 2531685, member: 4682"] Gonna try and keep this serious, although all of the funny ones put any criticism of the D&D movies (1st or 2nd) into new perspective. :) 1 [b]Tanglefoot bags[/b]: Oh yeah. Just way too many possibilities. 2 [b]Deck of Many Things[/b]: I once had a DM who began every campaign he ran with a[i]deck of many things[/i] before the players. 3 [b]Rod of Lordly Might[/b]: With all of the options built into this thing? Way too much cinematic fun. 4 [b]High level druids[/b]: Wild shaping all over the place into elementals or dire animals, plus having a big dire tiger or dire bear around at the druid's command. 5 [b]Flame Strike[/b]: Cleric of druid, don't matter. 6 [b]Stoneskin[/b]: (bounce!) 7 [b]Bigby's (anything)[/b]: Any of these spells would be fun. 8 [b]A paladin laying on hands[/b]: Very archetypal of a D&D class. 9 [b]Roper[/b]: Gotta have a cave encounter! 10 [b]Golem, preferrably an Iron Golem[/b]: Watch a wizard's prepared spell's bounce! And a bonus, [b]a Metamagic Feat[/b]: Something like Widen would be nifty! Some irreverant ones: A rogue surviving the full direct force of a breath weapon unscathed (he made his save!), while the rest of the party smolders. A monk flying around the battlefield 3 times faster than anything else. A bard singing in the middle of life or death combat. A wizard's familiar getting toasted and the wizard immediately losing the spell he was about to cast because he lost a level. A spell cast at a target successfully, but the very next round SR suddenly worked making a second casting of the spell strangely not function the next time. A character taking cover behind a Tower Shield and being invulnerable to everything from all directions at once (pre errata movie!) An orc double axe. Come on! Gelatenous Cube. Could anyone take them seriously in a movie? [/QUOTE]
