984 A.D.

Yes and it is something Peter Jackson would put to even greater use for the very lenghty production of LOTR. Rob Cohen do seem to take credit for things he wasn't THAT responsible for.

Uhm what? Chamber of secrets and prisoner of Azkaban are amazing films.

@@kadeb3184 the first two movies were great representations of the first two books. Unless we count the time in Philosophers Stone when they made Ron freaking out about the devils snare and Hermione being calm, which is the exact opposite in the books. Also the time in the Chamber of Secrets movie when they made Hermione know what a mudblood is, but not Ron, which is the opposite in the books. However, the Prisoner of Azkaban movie wasn’t good like the book was. It was very mid, honestly, the characterization and fights between Ron and Hermione were shit, and they made Harry the blandest character I’ve ever seen. They left out the Marauders backstory (and as a huge marauders fan, it hurt to see that they only give a shit about the Golden trio), and they didn’t show much of Draco’s talent of bullying much. He’s a very innovative character if you haven’t noticed, but in the movies they made him the typical, boring, blonde, heartthrob bully that everyone already knows. I think JK Rowling’s books started to change a lot when Kloves started to become part of the making of the franchise, and it started around The Goblet of Fire, when both the books and movies started to became too much and too little.

@@rCLXWit’s because after chamber of secrets they kept having a change of directors/direction I think that’s what made jk Rowling wanted it to be over with once they finally got David Yates & then the final film! I’m planning on re reading the series because I haven’t read them since high school lol I’m 30 now so I’m definitely ready to re read

@@nenej12 Lmao yeah, you’re prob right. Hope the new tv series is gonna be a more accurate representation of the books 😭 good luck with your re read!

@nenej12 Learn the difference between a Screenwriter and a Director, dumbass. The director doesn't matter. Only the screenwriting

I never thought I'd say this to another person in my life, but friend, you are smoking entirely too much reefer...

Most probably.

Ross thiscwas my first expure tomdungrons and dragond did t know abut dungeons andvdragons lerdud until I sfger I sa this move onndvd when I was a kid like in ver rdpynsupected that this movie was big flop but it felt Tom like it wascsime movie body had herd kf of they did they wre like what hsppend yo thst movie or wasnt thst movie like not so very muliked at all

Well, that’s just not correct at all. The hate for this film is understandable: terrible and nonsensical plot, terrible acting, terrible CGI, poor design, bad cinematography and direction, the list goes on. It’s an insult to DnD fans.

@@TBHJR But like all DnD sessions, the question is...did you have fun watching it?

Tim Redbeard the plot is pretty simplistic, but never thought of it as “nonsensical.” Acting was hammy, but the performers had fun and infectious chemistry and I think Marlon Wayans and Bruce Payne were genuinely great. I don’t know how you can hate the visuals, the art direction for the races, classes, monsters, weapons and armor, that’s all straight out of a 3rd edition book. I find the CGI charming and I think it had a lot more personality than anything in the MCU movies. Cinematography is an odd complaint, I can remember several really outstanding shots here, like when Snails gets cornered at a dead end and we get a wide shot of the castle and can really feel how hopeless he is. As a D&D fan, I thought it was really good. Excited for the new movie though!

Nope. You wrong bro

@@Gorvar100 hey, my wife cheated on me. But did you have fun marrying her? See the logic?

it's just a movie

The flying carriage scene, the implication I got from that is that the mage council kept an iron grip on magic. The girl thought magic was a science that could only be understood and used through intense study, because the mage council wanted everyone to believe that. So any kind of bard or sorcerer or warlock they'd mind wipe. It's a bit of a logical leap but it fits well enough.

In-universe? Which one as the D&D world is a multiverse? The Empire (or Kingdom as it came to be later) of Izmir is apparently located in the Mystara world but that is a bit of a retcon as it was probably added after this film was released.

@@AbelMcTalisker You know WotC was salivating at all the books and minis and crap merchandise there were planning on selling after this was a huge massive hit at the box office! This would've been their new de-facto campaign setting and they would've milked it for all its worth. Dodged a bullet there. Eberron was picked in 2004 so they could try to move away from the OG settings and their creators (Greyhawk, Forgotten Realms, etc.)

@@LuiJoD316 The origins for this actually pre-date WotC`s buyout of TSR as Gary Gygax spent several years in Hollywood trying to get various D&D Film and TV projects going, Gary even has a brief cameo in this and and he was involved in the earlier attempt that was the old animated series which WotC appears to be referencing in the current PR for the new rulebooks. The truth is both WotC and TSR before them have been trying for years to get a big blockbuster success on-screen with various degrees of success. This actually got a sort of sequel in "Wrath of the Dragon God", there was "The Book of Vile Darkness", a Dragonlance animated movie, and now "Honor Among Thieves".

I guess so, but there are so many other things that would have been perfect in this movie but are not there. I would really like to see the knighting ceremony which available nowhere.

@@gerLtfrva if you look into the making of the film it had licencing issues for over 10 years the writer was forced to use a older script that had previously been dismissed and he was also made to direct which he had never done before. It was plagued with things going wrong and unfortunately that shows in the quality of the film

@@markevayne Yeah I've seen it, I've posted it on this channel actually. And it really was a mess to make this movie, since he didn't even want to direct the movie but at the same time he didn't trust better directors like Coppola or James Cameron... He's not very consistent in some of his stories...

I'm pretty sure the alternate ending here is the ending of the movie I saw on VHS. Remembering thinking it weird they left the movie with Snails killed off.

@@pferreira1983 Well pretty sure everyone was happy he stayed dead... he was the most annoying character in the movie. The party probably went "nope we are not paying for that resurrection spell" :D
