It flopped for no reason. This was genuinely a very good fantasy flick.
>This was genuinely a very good fantasy flick.lol
>>220418048We all know you’re a Sophia waifu fag
flopped because it needed more Sophia
>>220418048I wouldn't call it good but it was entertaining and that scene where Pine's double starts to glitch out is funny.
Dungeons and Dragons is now being played by bunch of normies.
>>220418048Remember that schizo who would always hang out in threads about this movie? I wonder if he finally killed himself.
If this had been released after BG3, it would have made a killing. As it stands, I don't think it actually did that bad.
>>220418048Muttslop: the movie
I wish the intellect devourer consumed Sophia's Lillis's paltry 8 intelligence in a brief moment of existential terror as her mind is utterly consumed by the alien creature and left as a blank empty shell. And next the doglike brain beast would grow an alien erection. He would waddle his dog brain body over to Sophia Lillis's mindless, blank, slack jawed face and mount it. The Intellect Devourer doggy humps all over Sophia Lillis's facial orifices and seems to cum. He cums all over her and the magic cum seeps into her mindless mouth and into her nose and eyes. The goop runs and flows into her face and the strange brain creature seems to be getting smaller. He spasms and jerks and emits psychic doggy pleasure as he cums and shrinks and seems to cum himself inside her face. And the intellect devourer floods into her skull, digesting her physical brain, breaking all her physical matter down, repurposing it for the alien mind flayer's will. It reforms itself having assimilated Sophia Lillis's very essence. It acts as her new brain and slowly takes control of her beautiful body. It imitates her so well that even she forgets that she is a simple, mindless, brainless puppet under the complete control of the intellect devourer. She pulls up her trousers and looks down, unaware that that was the last shit she would ever take as a free willed human. She leaves to rejoin her friends, unaware that this was the secret twist revealed in the very real and very canonical D&D movie sequel where the intellect devourer piloted Sophia Lillis will spill all of Sophia Lillis's secrets to her mind flayer master and then shit out the scatified remains of her mind, consiousness will and personality. Onscreen. Onscreen for everyone, and, most importantly, me, to see.The End
>>220418048Surprisingly wholesome comedy kino. It felt like a script straight out of the 90s (which is probably when it was first drafted)
>>220418109Cute elf!
>>220418048I skipped because of that mutt. I was concerned they would try to commit miscegenation with Sophia, so I avoided at all costs. Seems like I was not alone.
it was released in the "hate woke" era. you could maybe say it was just released too soon, they were ahead of the curve in a world that wasn't ready
>>220418531Didn't really feel like a woke movie despite having a "colorful" cast.
>>220418312it made 200m on a 150m budget so it was a flopit is really weird that they didn't release it around when bg3 came out that year
>>220418048I want sophia lillis to morph into a gerbal and crawl up my ass
>>220418048do you think financial success usually has something to do with quality
I just didn't like that they clearly wanted Ryan Reynolds and settled for Chris Pine and just told Chris Pine to pretend to be Ryan Reynolds. It was very distracting
>>220418048Dungeons and Dragons: Cloaca Gentium
>>220418048>We were trying to emasculate our male leadsI would probably have watched it in the cinema and even brought my sister or something, if not for that one line. Good job you fucks.The funny thing is, I enjoyed it when I watched it on a streaming platform. Probably because I'm mindbroken and got used to all the anti-white, anti-male shit I see on the daily, but still.
Did it flop?I remember liking it and plenty of people talking about it
>directed by that one kid from Freaks and Geeksthat guy has had such a weird career
>>220418048It was too safe for a fantasy movie, some jokes were funny but some were meh, and there was no sense of worldbuilding. Just like 99% of people who watched that movie, I too watched it because tiefling Sophia Lilis was cute and hot in that fantasy outfit of hers and I wish she was my wife
>>220418048Well said, reddit.
>>220418719you're genuinely sad
>>220418929I don't have the mental fortitude to walk through life raging at every indicator of the poor state of our civilization. At some point you just have to shut off your mind and take life as it is.
>>220418048Fuck paramount and fuck you
>>220418048It was a goofy cartoon movie
>>220418048Even my sister, who doesn't know a thing about D&D liked it.
>>220418048>It flopped for no reasonIt was strategically released against big titles like John Wick and Mario to flop to get the tax write off. If a movie starts with this message, it's doing so to cover its ass.
>>220418312Yep. But WotC will still try to cash in by making an animated movie that's a sequel to BG3 and bring back all the voice actors. And it will be terrible.
>>220418207>Dungeons and Dragons is now being played by bunch of normies.>now
>>220418048it was mediocre and passively woke. a level of wokeness that is easily forgivable if the film were much better, but this film wasn’t good enough for that.
I wanted to fuck the evil witch
>>220418048Too many swear words meant parents couldn't take their kids.
>>220419368>. But WotC will still try to cash in by making an animated movie that's a sequel to BG3 and bring back all the voice actors.I've heard a well-placed talk that the VAs are slated for walk-on roles in the HBO show as their characters.
>>220418394>I was concerned they would try to commit miscegenation with Sophia, so I avoided at all costs.They unironically died. I watched it because one of the posters here claimed she rejected him, which is true in the middle of the movie, but they get together at the end of the movie after he proves himself. Never trust a shill.
>>220419869Giles from Buffy's daughter
>>220418048>for no reasonon to the next flop
>>220419368that sounds incredibly dumbbg3's story is pretty self contained and it ends with all the characters going their separate ways
This got made instead of another Trek. That is my primary thought about it.
>>220418109If I was a Druid I would wild shape into a pin worm so I could live inside Sophia’s ass
>>220418366Ego excretion is such a bizarre fetish and it seems to be everywhere these days.Fully expect it to pop up in a mainstream movie within the next couple of years.
>>220418048I can see three reasons on the movie poster alone.
Fun movie overall. Wouldn't mind sequel but I doubt it happens
>>220418048It was the most plebbit garbage shit out about d&d. I'm honestly surprised it bombed. I expected hordes of critical role theater fags to make it a grand blockbuster.
>>220418109I await the inevitable Doric spinoff.
>>220422428she must be so stinky in that leather outfit
>>220422428imagine how much more femininely she would be dressed if this film came out even just 10-15 years earlier, much less several decades ago.
>>220422557She’d be like 5 though.
>>220419888ugh. i forgot about a bg hbo show
>>220422805kek
>>220418287hopefully lol>>220418312it made more than it cost, and they're already planning a sequel
>>220423195>Planning a sequelUhh...its been like 4 years. The whole draw was cute tiefling, and she would be an old hag now.
>>220423409>and she would be an old hag now.No she’s only getting cuter, somehow.
>>220418048>Justice Smithno buy, sorry I'm not paying to see that charismatic black hole industry plant
>>220422805Inquisitive monke.
>>220422805out of ten
>>220418048Should have just done a live action version of the cartoon Not that the cartoon was super popular but the appeal of DnD is regular friends in the modern day getting to act out their fantasies.
>>220424559>the appeal of DnD is regular friends in the modern day getting to act out their fantasies.No it isn't. You've never played d&d.
>>220418048I liked it far more than I thought I would, didn't like how mutted the world was and the black wizard guy was just terribleIn fact going off the poster alone, remove the two black guys and it's a better film
>>220418207You mean failed theater kids, cosplayers, streamers, vtubers, and gay people.
marvel dialogue, plot writing
>>220418048> browns not fantasy, it's zogchow.
I watched it once and don't remember much other than it was a quipfest and was multi-culti all the way through.It clearly resonates with the nu-dnd which was coopted by the lgbt+ and "allies".It wasn't bad, but it also suffers from clearly being made by a committee. Just soulless.
>>220418109The only time she ever looked cute because she doesn't have a dyke haircut.
>>220424918Said nobody ever.
>>220418048And surprisingly upbeat, too.
>>220418048>It flopped for no reason.It was a stupid kiddy comedy, which is the only way Hollywood sees Dungeons & Dragons. Shame, because there are dozens of existing cool script outlines that could be adapted but Hollywood simply refuses to make a serious adaption.>>220418109>flopped because it needed more SophiaThat too.
>>220418048>Zesty black mutt with a monotone voice >Cringe "I'm a le heckin tough and strong womeme" bitch Nah trash fuck off
>>220418048The paladin was great. Loved how he was actually completely benevolent and never took the bait when the bard tried to mess with him.
>>220418048No it wasn't you mentally ill faggot.
>>220418109She's dyke as fuck. Get better standards you retarded jeet.
>>220418929Not as sad as TDS dykes who needed to scapegoat men in the media.
>>220418048Looks like a lot of negroes in the cast. Is it possible that had anything to do with it?
>>220418048it was ok, lot of crap in the mix though. should have played it safer with some elves or some shit instead of a literal demon character.
>>220418048Weirdly enough even though this movie is total slop with two good jokes in the entire run time it is a bit of a comfort movie for me. It reminds me of 90s-00s adventure films back before the matrixification and then eventually the marvelification of Hollywood. However it still has a bunch of problems with the writing>complete farce>every character is quirk chungus>things just sort of happen for the whole runtime without any real stakesIronically because of this it does capture modern DnD, just a bunch of annoying quirkslop characters competing to see who can throw out the most bazingas.
>>220418048Yup it was great.I think the markets were too saturated with flops that no one was willing to give this a try.That being said, it's become a bit of a cult classic so any sequel would definitely sell.Watch Game Night by the same directors, another stealth kino.The directors know what they're doing.
does he still post here?
Seek help, loserYou've been doing it for years
>>220418048It's multicam greenscreen sloppa.
It's possible the main reason it failed is being DnD related. It is genuinely clever, not only with the humor but with the action, which was also really well done and not pointless flashy shit, it all served a purpose. I didn't go see it in the theater though because I wasn't interested in some lame cash grab for a licensed game.
>>220418091>sofina Fixed that for ya.
>>220418378>tiefling
>>220422494There's literally vents under her armpits. Are you blind?
I liked the little half black daughter a lot.
>>220418048>TRUST ME, THIS WOKE GARBAGE IS ACHTUALLY GOOD!!!!!Yeah right, OP.
>>220430571Same thing happening with the new Mortal Kombat movie. It's the same thing where they emasculate the white male lead and bait and switch replace him with girlboss women.
>>220418109She looks like a healthy Kurt Cobane.
>>220418378She's a tiefling, which means one or more of her ancestors dealt with literal demons and her bloodline still carries the taint.
>>220430611Nice Youtuber opinion.
>>220418048I found the humor to be cringeworthy and the characters to be extremely weak.It's weird how much it relies on spectacle, but at the same time, it feels like it is embarrassed of itself.
>>220418048>genuinely a very good fantasy flick.
>>220430631>sell soul for a donut>the next seven generations of your family are cursed to be half-demon spawnmagic curses are a bitch
>>220418048D&D isn't fantasy. It's paste.
>>220424717so the usual crowd that's played D&D
I enjoyed it, but felt the middle was very weak.
>>220418048It flopped because it was woke, bad and millennialdeal with it
>>220418048I turned this off like 5 minutes in when I saw a black dude playing an elf. Immersion ruined
>>220418048Danhausen was in that shit? How did Tony fumble that guy! He must be full retard.
It was another 'white man silly and dumb, womxn strong and component' movie.
>>220418048>no reasonSorry, the multi-racial cast put me off watching it.
>>220422428>armpit slits
>>220430446I want to make her happy
Someone said it was woke and reddit
>>220418639>50m profit on a somewhat obscure ipI dunno I'd consider that a success
>>220418048I dislike it because it's a redditors idea of playing D&D. No seriousness, nothing. It's MCU Dungeons and Dragons. That said, I only dislike it because there are no serious D&D movies at all. If I judge it standing on its own as a simple fantasy comedy then I would say it's pretty fun.
>>220418048Did it flop? I enjoyed it.
>>220432840The budget figures you see typically only include expenses related to the production of the film itself. Most movies spend at least 50% of their stated budget in addition on marketing the thing. Then there's the theater cuts and all the other expenses that aren't captured in the stated production budget. For the current way movies are produced it's commonly held that a hollywood movie needs to gross double its budget to actually get into profit territory. It's obviously more complicated than that because studios have contracts with fx houses and all kinds of other things that change the calculus on a movie by movie basis but most people consider 2x budget as the breakeven point a pretty good estimate.
>>220432920Get some new material autist
>>220418048>several dindus and a mexican on a fantasy film posterYeah no.
>>220418048It was an okay comedy.Horrible fantasy movie though.
>>220430755Not really, it used to be computer engineers and Metal fans.
>>220418048It was far better than it had any right to be but personally I could've done without all the blacks and Mexicans in what was ostensibly a Medieval fantasy setting.
>>220432959Rude :(
>>220432840You're forgetting marketing, and the fact that others get a share of that pie first.
>>220418048>woke as fuck>tie in to the most woke fantasy series>looks gay and retardedlolalso it was shit
>>220423195Yay! Glad to hear a sequel’s coming.
Its too bad we don't have the post counter anymore. I wonder who paid how much to remove that. Now waifags can samefag their tread x infinity and all we have to go on is experience from you going that literally 100x in the last year
>>220418048That poster is vomit inducing. That's a reason.
>>220432889D&D and all this geek Faggot shit is inherently reddit
>>220418048I haven't seen the movie, but I'm guessing there is a black elf. No one wants to see that in a fantasy setting. I note Michelle Rodriguez is on the poster, too, so I'd imagine ''women empowerment'' will likely raise its head at some point. Again, nobody wants to see it. No wonder it flopped.
>>220418048It was only good by contemporary standards. Serviceable but not memorable or iconic in the least. A good adventure movie requires both, the protagonist and antagonist to stand out, it requires a certain chemistry between them too, a strong personal relationship. It also require events to be meaningful and often a good stylized cinematography that enhances emotional intent. If you ask me this movie is unfocused on it´s approach and is full of unnecessary forgettable elements. As consequence the characters end up underdeveloped and shallow and are unable to properly handle the dramatic weight of the arc´s climax and the subsequent payoff. The idea itself is not bad and it comes through but that´s all.
>>220418048>GotG but DnD>main guy has to be a bard who fumbles around>black elf>all the chivalrous brave competent people are niggers or women>mid make-up and effects>nu-DnD>look bros, it's the fat dragon from DnD lore, isn't that funny? Lololol I am such a narwal baconer!It's complete dogshit and you have to be retarded to think otherwise.
>>220418048Blame Wizards for making the production a fucking nightmare to work on ensuring the budget was both inflated, the marketing was shit, and that nobody would want to work on a sequel.
>>220433423That was really a defining moment in shit getting worse here
It's simple, anon.It's a fantasy movie, based on European folklore.No one wants a diverse cast when seeing a retelling of European folklore.People can tolerate a token diverse supporting/background character, but not the main cast being filled with diversity.This isn't because of racism. But because race and culture creates mythos.Same reason why Odysseus will fail. It's retarded and no amount of pandering to minorities will fix it, because they themselves don't feel identified with the tales that are being told.
>>220418207Which is a bad thing
>>220424582whats the appeal then?
>>220418048I see plenty of reasons from that poster alone
>>220430611ok Drinker
>>220434505He's not wrong.
>>220418207>>220418137>>220418109>>220418091>>220418062don't feed the people that hate you.
>>220435753 just a lmao hey your back I thought you killed yourself just a reminder this movie was fun
>>220418048it was the superior GOTG one of the most honest films from 2024 same about "light" effects in he fillm was really funny.
>>220418048It released near Mario. And no one has really liked Chris Pratt since Princess Diaries 2.
>>220418048it flopped because of a WotC protest at the time, boycotting, the company because they were trying to tank the open gaming license that makes the entire dnd ecosystem thriveliterally the dungeons and dragons company sabotaged their own movie by attempting a corporate greed licensing nuke during the movies release window, obliterating any good will the company had at the time, and causing their main competitor to branch off and creating their own open license for the industry to pivot on, and greatly reduced DnDs stranglehold on the tabletop market.
>>220438262bg3 made them too cocky
>>220438262how many people in the general moviegoing public do you think had any idea that was happening? the film flopped because it was mediocre and woke.
>>220438398lol you are making the same mistake all studios do, disregarding the core fanbase, never realizing that they are the reason these things exist, no the normie audience didn't know but that isn't the point, without the real fans supporting and encouraging friends relatives etc to go see it never fucking works
>>220438502my point is even without the ogl controversy the true fans wouldn’t have supported this film because it’s nowhere near fun enough to make up for how woke it is.
>>220438753nah it really isn't woke at all, its classic dnd but wotc were really pissing everyone off at the time
Good riddance.
>>220418048>for no reason.It had a retarded budget that meant it needed to do marvel money to break even. I liked it well enough, felt like a throwback 90's fantasy flick, if only it had half the budget and realistic expectations.
>>220418048movies aren't in theaters long enough anymore for word of mouth to save kinos that didn't have a perfect opening weekend
>>220438398100% of dnd content creators took up arms in the protest, it was a very big movement to the point that it forced WotC to walk back their entire 10 year plan for the next decade and caused them to cancel several multimillion dollar projectsit was big
>>220438900fucking retard, its same thing Joss did with "emasculating" Mal in firefly its not remotely what you think you idiot
>>220435753We must return to tradition. Greenwood-sama... please save us....
>>220434244>European folklore>DnDForgotten Realms is a kitchen sink fantasy setting. Everything is in there. You're thinking of Greyhawk. The OG rpg setting by grognards for grognards.
>>220439226They made Greyhawk woke in 5.5e. :(
>>220439297Disgusting.
>>220418048Woke trash
>>220418048wokeslop for the reddit crowd, pirated it and even then felt scammed
>>220439375trash post
>>220439329Thankfully nobody plays 5.5e except retarded theater kids, so nobody knows that they made Bigby a nigger gnome or that the female member of the Circle of Eight is actually the only heckin good and wholesome one unlike the rest of the members. Honestly though, most grognards feel that Greyhawk was given a disservice as far back as 3rd edition with the Living Greyhawk Gazetteer, so it's nothing new.
>>220439191Simmer down, pedo groomer.
>>220439518stop being a stupid faggot
>>220438900Reminder: these guys are writing-directing the next Star Trek movie
>>220439623there is no new star trek movie what are you talking about?
>>220439685It was one of the first things announced when Skydance took over Paramount
>>220439733yea thats not happening
3.5 Player's Handbook is all anyone needs to make any fantasy setting work. It's so solid that you can transfer any other game setting using the core mechanics. It's so solid in it's worth that it's better than a deck of cards, although larger. It's all anyone really needs for core mechanics and creativity. Nothing have ever come close.
>>220439187this film would not have been a hit if the ogl protest hadn’t happened. it’s a mediocre, woke film that deserved the box office numbers it got.
>>220418048>generic capeshit film with an unlikeable castD&D 2000 was unironically better.
>>220439226Forgotten Realms started in the Sword Coast which is basically a pastiche of western Europe and to this day that's the only part of Faerun people care about.
>>220437334What with shills saying "honest film" about shit woke films? I've seen it three times already just today. Is this the new talking point from HR?
>>220440124Absolutely not. You aren't going to revise that rancid history.
>>220439623>>220439733Awesome, it will flop and fans already hate nuTrek including Andy Weir.
>>220440124Lol no
>>220439940Well yea 3.5 is the perfect rule book nothing will ever be better
>>220439375Indeed.>directed by GOLDSTEIN>mixed race couples EVERYWHERE>holy shit why is there a cute redhead in such a jewish movie?>oh right, so she can kiss a nigger>OH SHIT A GROUP OF WHITE MEN, ITS THE VILLAINS>constant male emasculation>everyone is ugly except the nigger kissing white woman>directed by GOLDSTEIN
>>220440830Also female barbarian because male warriors are problematic and toxic
>>220434244>It's a fantasy movie, based on European folklore.Biggest retard on this board right now.
>>220440124that entire shitty movie is worth it for the 6 seconds of Jeremy Irons hamming it up.
>>220440830
it flopped because wotc has tarnished their own brand and now the sort of people everyone thinks to ask "is this movie good" are no longer guaranteed to shill it for free
