Dungeons And Dragons Honor Among Thieves - Tumblr Posts
as soon as Kira saw that Holga was stabbed, I knew that they were going to use the resurrection tablet on her instead of Edgin's wife, but the movie just let the scene happen without saying "Ugh, bringing her back was so obvious/cliche, right?" It let the moment be sincere, Kira and Edgin singing with Holga as she died was sad and sweet, then bringing her back felt sincere. It doesn't "no homo" the moment, and I really appreciate that.
I loved that the D&D movie really felt like a campaign. Doing a bunch of backstory at the beginning establishing how the characters know each other like in a session zero, overpowered DMPC that has to leave the story because they’d be too helpful, finding important information at a tavern, etc. They don’t reference gameplay and yet you know exactly how it’s the game.
I watched Dungeons and Dragons: Honor among thieves yesterday, and one of my many thoughts and things I liked is that Xenk, the paladin, has to be autistic.
He values morals, and studies have shown autistic people tend to do that more than allistics. He doesn't get irony or, at least, doesn't like it. He's serious most of the time. He doesn't joke. The main cast is thankful he's on their side because, if he were an antagonist, the movie would be much, much shorter (okay maybe not that one but... d&d equivalent of a savant?).
I love him.

A lot of people like my lips. What people? Uh, they’re out there. Do they like your eyebrows too? What’s wrong with my eyebrows?

How am I supposed to enjoy the Dungeons & Dragons movie when all I'm going to be thinking when I see Hugh Grant on screen being the bad guy (?) is, "Oh dip, Benoit Blanc's husband is in this."
make me choose @jodieliker asked: Xenk when he’s hot/badass or Xenk when he’s funny/literal/overly serious
