Don’t mess with perfection

I had this ex who was deep into D&D and really keen on similar movies to The Princess Bride from the same era, but hadn't seen it. I suggested it for a movie night while we were sharing movies that were a big part of our childhood and got "it looks stupid, I'm not watching that". Unironically might have been the straw that broke the back of that relationship, I ended things not long after.

Straw? That's like dropping a boulder on your back.

Yeah, but there were a lot of boulders already being carried 🙃

No mention of the only Robin Hood who speaks with an English accent.

Mel Brooks dun goofed.

Probably not since Patrick Stewart plays King Richard in Men in Tights. Mel Brooks probably added it for the absurdity.

Nah, he said "unlike some other Robin Hoods..." emphasis added.

Oh no, I've been bamboozled by inaccurate parent comments.

I was genuinely hoping it would be "the gamers: dorkness rising" but princess Bride is okay.

Yeah, exactly my thinking! THIS is the real D&D party!

You poor soul. To think there's people out there that don't know a Dungeons and Dragons existed since the year 2000.

No, I saw that movie in the theaters when it came out, but it was so bad. I guess I just blocked most of it out of my memory. What I mainly remember is being mad. I skipped school and got grounded to see it.

Yeah this one of those movies that is like designed to be memory holed. I remember it being the subject of a bad movie night with friends, but all I remember is Jeremy Irons hamming it the fuck up. Literally nothing else about the movie.

If you think this one's bad, you should check out the other D&D movies. I watched them all in release order once. I was impressed how much worse each subsequent movie could be, until we get to the breath of fresh air that is the most recent film.

The Honor Among Thieves DnD movie that came out last year I think. I liked it, a fun movie that actually got some laughs out of me

What the other comment said. It was surprisingly entertaining and worth watching.
