Fun fact: the Paladin walking away in a straight line and over the boulder, as well as the other characters' reactions, are all improvised. The director decided not to say cut just to see what would happen and how they'd handle it, and Regé-Jean Page just kept on walking and straight over the rock like he's a video game NPC because he thought that's what Xenk would do in character.

[@davidshorb7453]

The pudgy dragon, the failed illusion and "Oh, Jarnathan!" actually made me burst out laughing, which is extremely rare for a movie to do. It is a shame this probably won't get a sequel, this is prime cinematic universe material, which I know studio execs love to hear. A sequel could have an entirely new cast made of different class characters than this one and then in the third movie both squads team up against Tam. That's a solid trilogy imo. There's literally no end to possible movie ideas with this property, just keep making new campaigns!

[@JKSSubstandard]

Fun fact. Fat dragon is featured in one of the 5e adventures. Hes fat because he powered the forges of an underground duergar (dwarf) city. They kept him fat and rich in exchange for his power. But as the dragon gets older, they can no longer control it, so they kill it and replace it with a baby for another hundred years. In the adventure you can warn the dragon about that plan, thus why he would be in this random abandoned ruin.

This really is what it feels like to play D&D, also the whole asking corpses questions scene, exactly how it would go when playing. You give a group of players a limit on something be it number of questions you can ask, or a word limit on a sending spell (long distance communication) it's like they immediately lost all ability to process thoughts.

The portal staff feels like a makeshift solution the GM had to come up with after the characters frak up the planned puzzle.

[@exclusiveextremo5799]

The prisonbreak in the beginning where they had already been pardoned is also something that happens but it depends on the players and the DM, like they had to roll a charisma check, they don't know how much they need to roll, but they roll 14 and think "14 won't do it, time for plan B", but the DM is like "14 does make it, but I will stay silent"

Saw this twice in theaters and enjoyed the hell out of it. Like you guys said, it was really refreshing to watch a movie that focused on being fun, enjoyable and ultimately lighthearted while still having dramatic moments that hit hard when they needed to. All of the actors did a great job, especially Chris Pine and Michelle Rodriguez. Really nice to see Rodriguez have a chance to flex her comedic timing, especially. Definitely one of my favorites from this year. And I'm glad you guys got as much of a kick out of Jarnathan as I did; he's an absolute legend. Cheers!

[@JKSSubstandard]

[@TF2CrunchyFrog]

Holga did say she took the "walking stick" from a wizard's lair years ago. But only Simon with his arcane knowledge could identify it. Yeah, it's basically a Portal Gun from _Portal._ But the spell Dimension Door exists in D&D, it works slightly different (it doesnt need surfaces and the exit can be somewhere out of line of sight, but has a maximum range), but the Hither-Thither staff is much more useful esp when it's not restricted in charges per day.

The funniest part of the intellect devourers ignoring them is kind of a meta joke. In the game, Intelligence is a dump stat for every one of their character classes (barbarian, bard, sorcerer, druid, paladin).

[@tofu_golem]

This feels like a real game. Like the hither-thither staff just showing up after the sorcerer ruined the bridge trap. You could almost hear the DM swearing under his breath. Or the super powerful paladin conveniently showing up to help them get the artifact, then going away. Michelle Rodriguez is playing a barbarian. They wear less armor but have a lot of strength. Chris Pine is playing a bard. They have minor spellcasting abilities, but mostly they use music to buff the party. Wizards memorize spells. They have to declare which spells at the beginning of the day and can only cast those spells that day. Sorcerers use magic in a less formal, more intuitive way. They have far fewer spells, but the spells are more flexible and there are no casting limits. Druids cast nature-related spells and can turn into animals.

[@exclusiveextremo5799]

The Speak With Dead spell also was really well depicted, the party ALWAYS messes it up, if they had included the Long Distance Communication spell, I think they would need to do it like, 20 times because they keep exceding the limit of how many words can be said

[@Heiryuu]

The best part about the hither-thither staff? I can see the DM going “this can’t possibly be misused.” Then the party uses it to cheese both the heist and the final encounter.

The Dwarven city they mentioned before is famous for the weapons and armor they make, and to insure they have a CONSTANT supply of SUPER hot fire for thier forges, they employ a CERTAIN Red Dragon. So, all he does all day and night is sit around being waited on hand and talon, huffing and puffing and feasting like Henry the 8th!

[@kiedragerl8119]

This was done so well. I loved the use of practical effects on the Tabaxi (cat folk), the Aarakocra (Jarnathon), fish, and dragonborn (the other guy on the jury). I had so much fun watching this because I play alot of dungeons and dragons and kept whispering the spells to my husband in the theater (annoying for sure but I couldn't help it). I'm kinda sad because I guessed the end due to 1. the necklace of invisibility 2. they hung a *little* too long on that shot of the anti magic bracelets when they were getting their stuff back after the gelatinous cube. But overall super fun and the audience was packed on opening weekend and loved it. I don't know how it didn't make more money because, with audiences, it's pretty well regarded. It's probably the protest due to the Wizards of the Coast debacle that happened right before this movie came out. They kind of shot themselves in the foot.

Simon had to overcome his own self doubt and grow confidence in himself in order to attune, because in D&D Sorcerers use Charisma as the stat that makes them a better Spellcaster. A fantastic way to lead to a Sorcerer's arc of improvement, they literally just need to believe in themselves enough to cast better magic. (Wizards use Intelligence, so they study and understand magic like math or computer programming. Sorcerers are kinda a cheat as they are born with a connection to magic and can just make it happen by willing it.)

42:45 Only noticed this because of a tiktok, but this fight sequence actually mimics the tabletop version of combat. It's so quick its hard to track, but they attack in order twice through, Bard, Barb, Sorc, Druid, Boss. Mechanically in DnD, each "round" is calculated as 6 seconds, and that sequence is 12 seconds of runtime.

This was such a great and fun movie. It's a shame it didn't do well at the box office.

[@morgancason7156]

Well it was released at the same time as the John wick movie and the Mario movie also there was kind of a boycott because of what wizards of the coast did.

Between this, Vox Machina and the ever growing popularity of Critical Role and Dimension 20, it's a good time to be a D&D fan

[@lorettabes4553]

33:01 It's called not rolling high enough in dnd. Whenever someone trips, falls, takes too long to do something, hits something, it's all the characters trying to do an action like 'get my foot out of this hole' and then not rolling high enough with the die.

As someone who’s been playing D&D and other similar games for years, this movie really captures the essence of what playing D&D is really like. It’s got comedy and drama with sometimes conflicting tones but great timing.

[@MrDarkSidius]

Especially prison break. Players made plan for a half of session, and they gonna follow it, no matter what happened, even if it makes everything even more bad for them

[@trevorboeije9520]

Loved the reaction. I was so hyped for this movie and i am glad it delivered! Thanks for reacting and keep it going

[@lordmorklen5166]

Nobody would be happier if Fast movies were actually set in the DnD Universe than Vin Diesel.

The hither tither Staff is THE DM emergency Item, after the Group f'd up the puzzle he worked so hard on 😂

[@Cordelia53]

This Movie was all one big Dungeons and Dragons game...lol. Then of course, you have Thumberchaud the chonky boi. I love Thumberchaud!! Great reaction ya'll!!

[@ShortyLongstrokin]

Bruh, the Ice JJ Fish references had me rolling.

[@housebased7]

Unexpected Ice JJ Fish cameo

[@OP-1505]

Finally Roshi dropped the Reaction in this Masterpiece

[@isbammoi3358]

I was holding my breath in vigorous anticipation for yall to watch this. When I got the notif I was ecstatic! LOVE absolutely LOVED this film, and yall are the best reactors out there. Made my evening

[@JerkingtheGerk]

It does suck that this movie didn’t do great in the box office, but I like to imagine that, even if they don’t green light a sequel, the main cast would get together and record a campaign as their movie characters for KZbin.

[@jlmhamedia]

I just finished watched D&D and it was a fun movie to watch. Love the casts members, the storyline, the action, the adventure, the comedy and the music choice.

[@transyuri4534]

The tablet of reawakening is a high rarity magic item so it takes like, years of concentrated work to make one.

[@docdirtymrclean3610]

This movie is what i always wished a D&D movie would be. Fun and a good time at the movies.

[@ten7prime179]

They really took it to heart that players tend to do erratic wtf things.

[@mattixender3016]

47:30 Crowshi fuckin killed me

[@donp3857]

Those Ice JJ fish parts got me choking on my drink. Love the content! Much love from Belize 🇧🇿 ❤️

[@aftahshak7706]

This movie was so fun. Glad they did the D&D universe justice.

[@kagato23]

So yeah, in universe, this wizard who clearly never matured mentally thought combining things was cool and made some owlbears. Turns out they could reproduce! A few hundred years later and owlbears are a PROBLEM. Think the angriest bear you’ve ever seen and it thinks humans smell delicious to begin with. You see an actual one out in the wild, you run like hell.

[@leonard_y32]

"She did found a new family, with Dom! Fast movies is actually D&D!" Bruh, that so genius it's almost frightening.

[@LateCambrian]

Liked for JJ FISH reference, OMG

[@blupengu]

i'm SO happy y'all reacted to this movie!! it was such an unexpected delight, and everyone's "wtf is that bradley cooper?" reaction is hilarious lmao

[@WERNUTZ]

This was exactly as advertised. A Live Action Adaptation of A Typical Dungeons & Dragons Short game. Made by Fans-Players of D&D for other fans-players of D&D.

[@jaeearly-e4v]

lol dude when he said 65, the confusion that washed over your face was priceless

[@Phoenixfede1989]

When Simon say´s to Doric "Quiet the date" under the arena, you can see her smile, signaling that she starts to see the charismatic side of him what he should have as a sorcerer. And i think thats the point she becomes interested in him and considerin to try it again with him if he is still willed to try courting her.

[@jediburrito]

Shout outs to Sheera the plot understander bringing these Peasants to understand the main point of the let the mom go metaphor.
