D&D II: Wrath of the Dragon God

Anybody planning on watching this on Sci Fi tomorrow night?

My expectations aren't high, so I figure I'll give it a chance to exceed them.

We are!

The first one was one of the worst atrocities I've ever seen, why in the hell are they associating a new one with it?

No idea it was being made though, and knowing now my expectations couldn't possibly be lower, so that's a good sign for it.

yeah, there's no way I can devote any part of my life to a follow up on what I think may be the most disappointing movie ever made.

"I got my twelve-sided die and I’m ready to roll
With a Wizard and my Goblin crew
My friends are comin over to my mom’s basement
bringin funions and Mountain Dew
I got a big broad sword made outa cardboard
And the stereo’s a pumpin Zeppelin
Its that time of the night we turn on the black light
Let the Dungeons and a Dragons Begin!

It's D&Deeeee!
Fighting with the legends of yore!
It's D&Deeeee!
Never kissed a lady before.
Nope!"

Wow. My highschool years in verse.

Well, I'm sure that everybody wanted to know about this movie, so I figured that I'd share my experience. Here's a quick summary:

Decent plotline + poorly developed characters + bad acting + time contstraints = Bad Movie.

Like I said I didn't have high expectations for this movie. My expectations were barely met.

I thought it was on par with the typical Sci-Fi Channel Original movie. The story and acting were poor, but that's pretty much what you get in every movie they put out. I thought it was much better than the first one, but that speaks more of the first one than this one. About what I expected...

jander · 10-10-2005, 10:02 AM

Not bad, alot better than the original. I do agree the acting was pretty cheesy, but that's what happens when you have a budget of 6mil compared the the original's 30mil. Alot of things were good, the spell use was great (lightning bolt, teleport, etc), the elf running out of power and needing rest. What the heck was the cleric running out to fight a dragon on his own for, lol. Good way to get your party killed (they didn't see the D&D commercial, did they?), and I thought their wisdom was high.

I will buy it on DVD, hope they do another one and maybe raise the budget slightly. I didn't expect too much with a limited budget, but looking at it that way I think they did well with what they had.
