Such an unexpectedly good movie. You should definitely watch.
And oh my God do I love that fat dragon more than anything...
-
I have a plush of him! I love it!
-
Really reminds me of my parents cat
-
If I ever have a fat orange cat, I'm calling him Themberchaud, the Wyrmsmith of Gracklstugh.

It's really a very good movie. The best thing about it is feels like an actual session being filmed. You can almost tell when the rolled a 0 and when they rolled a 20.
-
The best scene was where one character was in handcuffs and kept rolling too low to get out and the camera kept switching from one character who was doing awesome stunts back to them doing nothing useful the whole fight.
-
The best part about that scene is that while he's fumbling his escape rolls, Edgin's still churning out Bardic Inspiration so Holga can continue kicking ass.
"OH, we got 'em now!"

Yep, and at some point the DM lost his patience with the group and introduced a friendly OP NPC (the paladin) to get the story rolling already.

If someone rolled a 0 they're in big trouble

It's a fun movie. Maybe not a great movie, but fun to watch. My family doesn't play TTRPGs, but they liked it too.
-
There are scenes where you can very much see the rolls being made and how the "players" are dealing with them. And I like that a lot about it.
-
I haven't stopped to verify, but in the battle at the end, they apparently all attack in initiative order each lasting about six seconds. It's those little attention to detail bits that make it fun for players, on top of being enjoyable for non-players as a fantasy action movie.
-
And also the parts where the GM is going "this would make the scene better even though it doesn't work that way" like the scene in the graveyard.

Dungeons and Dragons: Honor Among Thieves

Surprisingly good movie, and accurate to the source material

For a second I thought this was some brainrot BG3 mod that makes Withers look Balenciaga-style
-
What a fantastic idea!

So, like 5 comments saying it's a good movie, and not a single comments, nor the title of the post, or the post itself, mention the name of the movie.
Wtf am I looking at?
Dungeons and Dragons Honor Among Thieves. If you haven't figured it out already, that is.
How could anyone "figure that out" if they didn't know the film? 😁🤣
DnD of course
...it's an okay movie: perfectly servicable Standard Hollywood TreatmentTM; competently written, directed, performed, and edited; genre trope in-jokes liberally sprinkled throughout...
...i believe most positive reactions stem from defying expectations that it be a bad movie, rather than actually being good...
Absolutely not. I fucking loved this movie. It pivots between things a few times and they're all interesting. It's got humor too. It really captures what a d&d campaign feels like.
