11 Things We Want to See in the Dungeons & Dragons Sequel

Blue for magic (which Edgin does little to none of in the film), and red to represent art. Blue is also a sneaky color in MTG, so maybe this does fit.

Honor Among Thieves Leaves Us Wanting More, on Purpose

In spite of a rocky first third, Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves is a delightful, if slightly unsurprising, swords and sorcery film that balances the goofball antics of playing tabletop role-playing games and focused storytelling without sacrificing approachability. It follows a rag-tag group of adventurers who spend a little too long on their traumatic backstories as they attempt to right the wrongs of their past. Sort of. That’s kind of incidental, really.

A New Dungeons & Dragons Movie Clip Works the Graveyard Shift

With every single video that comes out for this film, I am more and more convinced that Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves is just an amalgamation of the most common pitfalls in any given D&D campaign. Is it as funny watching it on screen as it is when you’re playing it out with friends? That remains to be seen. But for now, enjoy Chris Pine’s Bard making a fool of himself in a graveyard.Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves | Questions For A Corpse Clip (2023 Movie)Oh, Edgin, you beautiful dumb-dumb.
