<font color="gold">Yesterday, I noticed a movie called 'Dungeons and Dragons'.
Has this something to do with the classic books and stuff?</font>

Exxon, according to everything I've heard seeing it would be the worst form of mental torture you could inflict on yourself.

It's almost blasphemy against D&D I've heard said [img]tongue.gif[/img]

The fact that The RPG world let such a piece of crap ever get made. Leads me to believe that corporate scum now controls the RPG world. What ever happended to the old slogan Games for Gamers by Gamers. A movie made by gamers would have not been so cheesy and sad. That movie set DnD's acceptance in the everyday life back about 20 years.

No, no... by far the worst thing about the D&D movie is that it was, in fact, made by D&D fans BUT THEY STILL GOT IT VERY WRONG.

Crap. Abousloute crap. Why would anyone make such a crappy film? I mean that wasnt just crappy for a DND moive that would have been cappy for any moive.

And yes the fact that it was made by dnd fans makes it even worse. They could have done so much beter. Pure crap.

Exxon you "noitced" it? I guess it wasnt all that commericaly succsesfull where you live huh? Wish it could have been just as quite over here. Hehe.

It was definatly one of the worst movies I ever saw. About 48% of the people that went to see it have killed themself, the other 62% have become insane(I already was crazy so I am immune for that ) .

On the opposite viewpoint from the rest...I will say that the movie did at least have some good graphics...that was a pretty convincing Beholder...and the dragons kicked some ass...
The movie at least tried to capture some D&D elements.
I am not a huge critic, and usually enjoy any movie as good entertainment...yet, I have not bought this movie, as it is not worth the price right nop for me. Maybe if I found it for like $5, I would get it...maybe...</font>

Biggest pile of flaming crap I've ever seen. The acting was horrendous, just garbage. The Dragons looked cool, If you could stay awake during the rest of the borefest. Sorry, but 2 dicethrows, I wouldn't waste the throw.......
