Such an unexpectedly good movie. You should definitely watch.
And oh my God do I love that fat dragon more than anything...

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.
If someone rolled a 0 they're in big trouble
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? 😁🤣
I'll be honest: I've never seen the movie, but I have seen enough references to it and memes made from screenshots of it that I instantly guessed what it was. The fact that we're in rpgmemes did help.
DnD of course
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.
Yep, and you can tell what spells they're using pretty often (obviously adapted for screen) without someone yelling "Your Maximillion's Earthen Grasp is no match for my Bigby's Hand!" so it's fun as a player to see that as well.
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.
Soooo, what movie is this?

As another Lemmite mentioned elsewhere.
Yeah, as a reply right above you an hour before you replied.
Surprisingly good movie, and accurate to the source material
I also like Hugh Grant as a sleezy rouge - his latest non-heartthrob roles are great.
"I like turtles."
For a second I thought this was some brainrot BG3 mod that makes Withers look Balenciaga-style
What a fantastic idea!
I can fix her
