True D&D style movies, comics and anime!

[tecnodemon]

Let me rephase my oriignal question.
Take all the elements from the core D&D books, like the PHB, DMG and MM 1&2 and which movie that has been made be close or similar to earlier statement.
Lets say if there was a fantasy movie out there be american live action, american animated or anime that had all the elements from the d&D 3 core books which title would you pick?

Disregard Record or Lodoss War series and movies and Lord of the Rings.

Well... Elfquest is great. It's not QUITE "standard" DnD... Actualy, it's not even all that close... But it is kind of DnD-ish, and it's great fun... And elves (of a sort) are the main characters.

Why Krull, out of curiosity?

 

[tecnodemon]

D&D the movie is a given, I should have said disregard that too.

RE: tecnodemon

I guess Krull just hasa fantasy feel, but looking back, it really doesn't fit. Heck, I think the whole point of this thread is to realize that there isn't any movie following D&D rules.

yeah only a select few are out there.

I have heard rumors that there coming out with the old campaigns to movies/tv show soon.
Greyhawk - movie or series
Dragonlance - minieseries maybe
Forgotten Realms - live action show
Planescape - animated

But I still like to see non official D&D worlds, but still use the rules and concept be a movie, tv show, games or comics.

No I think it just made it clear that we all see D&D and role playing games differently. My idea of a typical D&D game is different than Krunchfrogg's, Tysr and all the other posters. To me 13th Warrior is a D&D game. Braveheart is not. Not all my D&D games have elves, clerics or oddness. What may be odd to you may happen everyday in my game and visa versa.

So I guess there is no typical D&D move.

To tell the truth, I think the first thing a "D&D" style movie must have is a "party." If it focuses too much on a single character, it loses too much of the feel.

Although my memories of it are vague, one that seemed to fit the bill was "Hawk the Slayer." Very cheesy, but very fun. It had a party with each member having it's own speciality.

Can't believe no one mentioned this:

Sojourn - comic published by CrossGen, starring Arwyn, a former Royal Archer. After her family is slain by the troll army of a conquering undead tyrant, she sets off on a quest to find an artifact that can bring back the legendary hero that stopped the same undead tyrant before he was undead. She is accompanied by her faithful, non-speaking dog Kreeg, and Gareth the Bowman, an infamous one-eyed archer. As an extra help, a mysterious woman named Neven hads her the Bow of Ayden (that's the legendary hero), a mighty weapon that only Arwyn can wield. And after squaring off against a red dragon, Gareth was able to get himself a bane (dragons) longsword.

Can you GET more DnD?
