Well, I finally watched this movie yesterday, with 0 expectations and I actually enjoyed it. I’m surprised to learn it jas >90% score on Rotten Tomatoes as I wouldn’t rate it that high, but I found it very compelling; I was actually looking forward to how they would come out of those bad situations this time. Characters were strangely well developed with backstory that didn’t make my eyes roll. Sure, not original, but well told. I was expecting a Netflix movie type (dull and somewhat boring) and ended up with a good pic. Hoping for a sequel.
Sequel would be awesome. I once saw someone suggest the sequel should be same actors but playing different characters as a new campaign and I really really hope they do that (though unlikely)
They’ll never do that. What D&D needs for “maximum monetisation” is “franchise” and “strong character IP”. They need these characters to sell you more stuff.
Unfortunately a sequel seems unlikely. The film wasn’t a box office success, despite being a better film than most other movies released that year.
