Send us a textGrab your d20s and prepare for adventure as we dive into Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves, the 2023 film that captured the heart and soul of D&D while delivering one of the most entertaining fantasy adventures in recent years.This episode feels like a natural critical hit as we explore what made this Chris Pine and Michelle Rodriguez-led romp so special, despite it not achieving the box office success it deserved. Rich, our resident D&D newcomer, shares his unbridled enthusiasm for the film, comparing his experience to watching the first Pirates of the Caribbean. Meanwhile, Dakota and Anthony offer the perspective of active D&D players, pointing out how perfectly the film captures the experience of a tabletop campaign, from critical failures to unexpected solutions.We break down the stellar cast performances, with Hugh Grant's deliciously self-serving Forge Fitzwilliam and the scene-stealing appearances by a pint-sized Bradley Cooper deserving special mention. The hosts dissect memorable sequences like Doric's shapeshifting escape, the speaking-with-dead cemetery scene, and that hilariously literal straight-line-walking paladin Xenk. For D&D players, the film offers delightful references to game mechanics and lore, while newcomers get a perfectly accessible fantasy adventure that stands on its own.The conversation expands to how the film has influenced official D&D materials, with items and locations from the movie becoming part of the game's canon. We also touch on upcoming D&D media projects, including a Netflix series being produced by Stranger Things' Sean Levy.Whether you're a seasoned Dungeon Master or someone who's never rolled a saving throw in your life, our discussion celebrates why Honor Among Thieves deserves your attention and the sequel that fans are desperately hoping for.

Was it's highly praised rich imagery (a man burns off his own dick with a red hot robot hand so...) and non linear narrative worth it? Did we find it though provoking or rage inducing?

Upon arrival, Kelvin encounters strange phenomena, including the appearance of his deceased wife, Rheya, played by Natascha McElhone. As Kelvin grapples with his own guilt and grief over Rheya's death, he confronts the enigmatic forces at play on the station and on the planet itself.

Soderbergh's "Solaris" is a contemplative and visually striking adaptation of Lem's novel, known for its introspective tone and minimalist style.Did we like it or were we just in it for nude scenes?

So when Mike finds himself mysteriously thrust into a war-ravaged far future, occupying the body of a hapless highschool girl with no knowledge or understanding of the world around him, he does what he always does— turns lemons into lemonade.Mike flees from the utopia of his causal nose into the dystopia of the world around him. He adopts the identity of his new body in perverse defiance of the mystery it poses. He enlists in the future-military to pilot a giant mech against the bug-monsters and the killer robots. He befriends the friends of the highschooler whose life he usurped, and uses them as the brick and mortar of a fate which he architects unknowingly. He's unhinged. He's sociopathic.
