It's amazing how many people don't understand demographics.

Imjustafatkid May live in those states but I don’t think his demographic is the one your talking about.
It’s one of the dumbest arguments. You southerners are fat, stupid, poor, and have teenage pregnancy.
Every one of those accusations line up with the heavy black population of the south and exclusively votes blue.

So avoid this movie if you have kids or despise woke shite. Got it.

It is, super weird career.
He wrote SpiderMan homecoming too.
He goes onto explain that he liked making Chris Pine the sorta back row face of the party and making Michelle Rodriguez the barbarian.
Idk.
Generally don’t have super high hopes about and D&D movie.

I am going to trust the guys that wrote Game Night and both Horrible Bosses with the material. Though I know nothing about this nerdy game.
Call them what you wish, but they are good guys and very smart and talented. I art directed their directorial debut and to this day I maintain it was a great script. Just fell a little flat.
Either way ... it is going to print money worldwide and good for them. The rest of the world doesn't seem to get caught up in the politics of it all thankfully.

it flipped through my reels recently talking about Daley.
freaks and geeks (great,) bones (never saw, but he won an award for it,) vacation (terrible,) game night (awesome,) stuber (terrible,) spiderman: home coming (great,) and vacation friends (a nice raunchy comedy.)
very weird career.
i can handle some dumb woke stuff as long as i can roll my eyes and move on. if it's the whole movie, i'll be out.
i was a d&d nerd for a long while getting through puberty before i found girls and sports. some fun PC games in the 90s.

I thinj The big issue with D&D movies is that D&D is intentionally open to world building so those do you make it a D&D movie and not just a fantasy adventure movie with a D&D logo.

yeah. i do like that they're putting classes on there like paladin, mage, bard, thief, etc.
guessing they aren't messing with halfling, elf, half-elf, dwarf, lawful evil, chaotic good, etc.
as far as canon for ACTUAL D&D stories, something like Dragonlance or Forgotten Realms would be fun, but those would be "deep cuts" to say the least.

The writers of the movie say that is a bad take.
Yeah… before this article I just figured it was for comic relief, but now I will probably wait until I can watch it for free.
I would have probably seen it in the theaters if they had not said anything and if I had gotten that impression then they’d have my money, though I would have posted my thoughts on it and possibly steered a few other folks away.
Like I said, wouldn’t have gotten that impression from the trailer alone. The article lost them at least this ticket sale.

Does anyone else remember the 2000 D&D movie that had Marlon Wayans and Jeremy Irons. What a terrible movie that was.
Is that the one with the chick from American Beauty who showed her massive tits?

i'll probably fall on my sword and see it for those of us that don't like woke stuff and report back.
but i'm definitely seeing it in a matinee to stick it to them.

Sorry you are disappointed. I don't remember the boys in high school who spent Friday nights playing D&D as very masculine. Seems like a realistic portrayal
Maybe go see a movie about the football team instead if you would rather see dudes interested in things like sex or physical well being.

i played D&D and magic well into HS and was a football player and ran track.
not saying your stereotype isn't mostly correct.

…
By the 90s there were plenty of kids from across cliques at my school that played. Jocks, goths, nerds, etc… the only thing that looks different these days is that female players aren’t the super rare thing they were when I was younger.

to be fair, most of the current girls into video games and D&D are also showing their boobs on OnlyFans.
