It’s Tough to Be a God (Movie Version)

[@millerashton1861]

This whole movie is basically when the bard and rogue ditch the party and have their own campaign.

[@themaddoctor5304]

I actually ran a one shot campaign like this. It was just two people (which is how I came up with this idea) and they were fairly new to dnd. Needless to say they had a blast, and actually managed to get a lot of gold out of it.

[@SollowP]

This movie is exactly why the bard and the rouge should not be let out of sight.

[@MutedCourier]

Holy shit. I can’t remember his name but what’s his face (the conquistador) is a Paladin who is either path of vengeance or Oathbroken.

[@CreeTheChroma]

@@MutedCourier Conquest is another paladin is a type he could be as well.

[@MutedCourier]

@@CreeTheChroma I completely forgot about that oath. Thanks.

I had this movie on VHS and I watched it constantly. The music was and still is catchy, the animation always grabbed my attention, and I still love it. As an adult, I can pick up on more of the jokes, and that just makes me love it even more.

This was one of those songs that you could’ve sworn was a Disney song but it turns out it was made by another studio

[@jakegodofmischief3691]

So fun fact: Elton John and Randy Newman are the lyricists for the song. Newman has done many songs for Disney especially songs found in Toy Story, Monster’s Inc., and a few more movies.

[@joezilla0250]

I hardly think I'm qualified To come across all sanctified I just don't cut it with the cherubim (Tulio, what are you talking about?) There again they're on their knees Being worshipped is a breeze Which rather suits us in the interim (The interim, the interim, that's me and him Oh my god!) It's Tough to Be a God Tread where mortals have not trod Be deified when really you're a sham Be an object of devotion Be the subject of psalms It's a rather touching notion All those prayers and those salaams And who am I to bridle if I'm forced to be an idol? If they say that I'm a god that's what I am! What's more, if we don't comply with the locals' wishes I can see us being sacrificed or stuffed (You have a point, that's very good thinking) So let's be gods, the perks are great! (Yeah!) El Dorado on a plate (Thank you) Local feeling should not be rebuffed Never rebuffed A-never rebuff a local feeling, no, my friend! It's Tough to Be a God But if you get the peoples' nod Count your blessings (Yeah!) Keep 'em sweet That's our advice (It's great advice!) Be a symbol of perfection Be a legend, be a cult Take their praise, take the collection As the multitudes exalt Don a supernatural habit We'd be crazy not to grab it! (You got it!) So sign up two new gods for paradise Paradise!

I cant listen to this song or even watch the movie anymore without thinking of Calvin Fischoeder from Bob’s Burgers and same with Bob’s Burgers, I can only hear Tulio, and sometimes I will think of Phoebus from The Hunchback of Notre Dame. Thanks Kevin Kline for being wonderful.

[@guntotingmonk]

Not the person who uploaded, but from what I can find researching there was a special cast and crew edition of the soundtrack that was never released to the public with the movie versions of the songs. However, it appears a few copies made their way to Amazon sometime in 2016. That might be where they got this, or from someone else who snagged one.

[@Noahmediacorner]

[@AdinaIspas]

Yeah except the Aztecs when they treated people like gods, it meant they were going to sacrifice them in the festival. 😅 The belief was that the gods sacrificed themselves so humans must continue the custom to maintain the cosmic order (aka social hierarchy, in layman's terms...).

Can't you see I won't relax If religious maniacs Tell me I'm all-powerful and sublime How can I be their belief When I'm lying through my teeth? Why don't we just say, "some other time"? It's tough to be a god But if you get the people's nod Count your blessings, keep them sweet is my advice Be nirvana, be salvation Be all things to all men Butter up your congregation Every Sunday score a ten The alternative is dire Simply frying pan to fire So sign on two new gods for paradise, paradise
