    That part at the end where he's talking about spell-casting having a language and using ASL signs is a pretty good summary of what Vocal and Somatic spell components are.

    Saw the movie last night I actually thought it was really good, as someone who's never played a game of d&d, but is aware of a decent amount of a mechanics in the lore lol. I love Hector's excitement and everything he does, perfect person to interview these people!

    I saw it - excellently done. Funny, plot twists and lots of easter eggs for D&D enthusiasts. My wife and daughter also enjoyed it and my wife had no background understanding of the game. I would also watch it again!

    Just saw it, it was good. Not great, not spectacular, but a solid piece of popcorn entertainment, which is a big step up from anything Dnd has managed on the big screen before. Conservative but lovable, heavily reminiscent of the first Guardians of the Galaxy, but it successfully captured the feel and joy of a chaotic campaign of Dnd in all the best ways. Plans were made and failed and backup plans were bodged together, dumb lovable barbarians annoyed bumbling wizards, a paladin showed up to be too pure for this wicked world but too tough to die, and plenty of time was made for banter and conversation and interpersonal stuff, which is the real point of Dnd. Saw it with my group I’ve been playing with for over a decade; the real dnd is the friends we make along the way.

    I haven’t felt this great after seeing a movie in a long time. Just loved it!

    I am so unbelievably happy with this movie. Also I did not realize that Sweets was one of the directors. Makes me love it even more now.

    I don't know if someone did it intentionally but come on Simon the Sorcerer. That is a point and click adventure game from the 1990s.

    Doing some work and someone gave me an interesting advice for my Dragonborn Paladin receiving a weapon that was made by the grief of a Lawful Neutral Blue Dragon since my character’s father was this Dragon’s friend and when this Dragonborn died, the Blue Dragon’s mourning and vengeance towards the creature that murdered her friend shaped the sapphire given to her by her friend into a Draconic Weapon fitted for a Dragonborn Paladin which has parts of the Dead Dragonborn’s lingering power as well as some of the Blue Dragon’s power absorbed into it

    Viendo a los actores ya se podía intuir que la cosa iba bastante bien, me alegro de que hayan hecho una buena película inspirada en D&D. ¡¡Gracias!!

    I myself can't wait to see this movie. It looks awesome. I feel sad for any haters.

  • @brandonlyons5664

    I think it would have been a funny nod if at a random pivot moment it froze and you had the actors hectically talking about a plan, it unfreezes, they try the plan, then it just all goes wrong. Just like a real game.

    I love justice

    Hector saying he's played a few times... I know it's not exactly dnd, but don't act like you're not everyone's favourite cat alien children throwing person

    It’s too bad this movie was hot, wet garbage.
