Have you watched "Honor Among Thieves", what do you think?

[Oh My God! It's Jason Bourne!]

I personally found it very funny and entertaining. Does anyone know what do they call those panthers with tentacles?

Not getting a sequel...

Strangely enough, the movie was liked by critics and moviegoers and from what I have heard, more than enough people watched the movie.
Oh well, 150 million is a really high budget. Here's hoping that the movie catches on when it releases on Blueray/ via streaming.

In a chalice. You know... that chalice.

You shouldn’t be embarrassed, it was a good movie and it was based on a game we all love. There were fun call backs and Easter eggs, it was light hearted and funny, and the production was 10x any other D&D movie ever.

People talking bad about it are just trying to virtue signal their Nerd superiority. It’s real immature.

No, not at all.

It was an average movie, which is leagues above every other D&D based movie before it.

That's a low bar to cross.

Some of us were hoping it might get something like the Peter Jackson/LotR treatment - an epic, emotional journey into the heart of darkness.

The fourth wall breaking and constant reminders that "this is a game" prevented that. I actually hated every time the movie made a reference to game mechanics, because it was immersion breaking in a bad way.

Honor Among Thieves didn't take itself seriously enough and ended up being just sort of an okay-ish movie.

I don't regret seeing it, but at the same time it's forgettable.

Fair enough.
As swim mentioned the difference here was expectations. I brought my gf expecting a light hearted fantasy action/comedy and was pleasantly surprised. My GF loved it.

You just had epic expectations and found it wanting. Which is understandable. It was never going to be an epic Lotr type movie

I brought my DnD campaign with me, and everybody loved it.

It was fun. Hopefully the Tabaxi race shows up in this game like it randomly did in the movie. Having some fantastical race aside from the 'Yanki would be ace. Djinassi, Changeling, something for variety. Goliath interactions would be great too.

I've never seen Genasi written as "Djinassi", and the name makes so much more sense to me now.
