    So, like 5 comments saying it’s a good movie, and not a single comments, nor the title of the post, or the post itself, mention the name of the movie.

    Wtf am I looking at?

      …it’s an okay movie: perfectly servicable Standard Hollywood TreatmentTM; competently written, directed, performed, and edited; genre trope in-jokes liberally sprinkled throughout…

      …i believe most positive reactions stem from defying expectations that it be a bad movie, rather than actually being good

        Absolutely not. I fucking loved this movie. It pivots between things a few times and they’re all interesting. It’s got humor too. It really captures what a d&d campaign feels like.

        How could anyone “figure that out” if they didn’t know the film? 😁🤣

          I’ll be honest: I’ve never seen the movie, but I have seen enough references to it and memes made from screenshots of it that I instantly guessed what it was. The fact that we’re in rpgmemes did help.
