The beach scene was one of those lucky ad libs. The actor didn't hear the director yell CUT and he just kept walking, right over that boulder and down the beach. One of the funniest bits in the movie.
Holga's class is barbarian. So she's very strong and has the ability to rage like Grog from vox machina. She just doesn't yell it out in this movie. And yes dnd has different species and classes. So keyleth and the red haired girl aren't the same species but they are both druids who can use wild shape to change into animals. Nice reaction guys!
If they didn't ride Jarnathan in the beginning, the villain guy would've escaped in the end 😂
Facts! It was for the greater good😂. -Brandon
naw, I don't think the con artist would have thought of the escaping with Jarnathan without the previous story... ...but he was wise enough to at least listen till the verdict was called. 🤣
"Baby in a bar?"
*laughs in 70s/80s children* I practically grew up in bars.
😂 I feel ya! Just as long as you don't tell me the bartender was putting something other than apple juice or milk in your bottle I'll stop feeling as concerned.
-Adison
nah, that was my grandpa.... splash of rum in the bottle puts baby right to sleep. 80s were wild. @@edn
The fun thing about the Intellect Devourers, was that none of these classes in the group had Intelligence as a main stat. Sorcerers, Paladins and Bards use charisma, druids have wisdom and Barbarians have strength.
I think this movie did a great job at adding little nods to the game specifically for players! This was one of the funniest! 😂
"chunky the magic dragon" had me dead. 😂😂
In this world, there is fair evidence even for common people that the souls of the departed reach their gods. This is what Xenk (the Paladin) meant about Edgin depriving his wife of a new life.
Holga and Edgin have a great platonic friendship, even though both support Kira essentially as parents. I really appreciate the depiction in the movie and that there wasn't any kind of romance forced between them.
If I was in Edgin's position, I think I would also have brought Holga back.
Yea shipping those two was a hopeless take.
The cemetery scene legit happened to my party during a campaign. We did a party watch of this movie once we could rent it and all died laughing when that scene hit. 🤣❤️
"That's cheatin."
No. That's a Displacer Beast. OG DnD moster going back to 1977. I would love seeing you guys play the actual game.
Like you said, Holga was more of a mother to her, so definitely have to bring her back
Exactly this. Edgin had to come to the realization that he wasn't bringing "your mom" back, but "my wife." That *could* be a perfectly fine thing to want to do, but he'd been rationalizing the "I did it for you" narrative for so long that maybe for a while he started to believe he really was rather than doing it for himself.
For his daughter, Holga was the only mom she really ever knew. Her birth mom was important, but the emotional heart for his daughter was Holga. Edgin took that second step of not just realizing that he had been holding onto that chance for himself, but then also deciding to let it go and really-for-real give his daughter back the mom she almost lost.
It was honestly kind of a beautiful and unexpected moment.
But guys, Holga *clearly* has a type and Edgin is NOT IT. :D
'How did you get from there to there?' "That's a long swim."
"School of Michael Phelps."
😂😂😂
Y'all crack me up!
I love this movie. It captures the vibe of actually playing D&D so well, it really feels like there’s people sitting around a table off camera and what we’re seeing on screen is what they’re seeing in their heads. Like, the portal staff is a classic example of the players screwing up the DM’s carefully laid out plans, and the DM having to improvise some BS to move the story forward, only for the players to find creative ways to use and abuse the improvised tool later in the game.
I would've revived Holga. She was the only mom Kira knew.
They use practical effects where ever they could. Yes, there was a lot of CGI, but some of it was actually practical. The sinking into the quicksand floor? That was practical. I forgot now they did it, but so goooood.
And, for those of us who are DnD and RPG fans, this movie made us so damn happy! Every inch of it was a true Dungeons and Dragons experience. (Right down to the paladin who came in, helped, then peaced out by walking proudly into the distance.) Spouse and I were giggling with delight every second of this movie! I swear you can FEEL the fun the people who made this movie had!
Also, there was a cameo appearance of some characters from the 80s DnD cartoon that briefly aired. They did throwbacks all across the generations.
If you inject air into sand it behaves like a liquid. I'd bet that's how they did it
And the cartoon guys were a place with Maces and Monsters. I want to believe that was a wink to that Tom Hanks movie from 1983 during the Satanic Panic where d&d was the same as doing heroine
“That’s a catfish!” and then the immediate laughter in reaction to the pan to the Tabaxi (the cat looking lady) got me giggling so much! 😂 loving this reaction, guys!
Doric and Keyleth from Vox Machina are both Druids. Druids in D&D are spellcasters that draw on the powers of nature (though Doric in this movie doesn't really use any magic), they also have an ability called Wild Shape, which allows them to temporarily transform into animals.
No Mini Cooper jokes? C'mon comments.
😂😂😂
-Adison
That was hilarious
That's Bradley Cooper, he did play in The Hangover
And he's Rocket Racoon.
Otherwise known as a “mini” cooper
@@chaosreigns8462 omg yes 🤣🤣🤣
I was disappointed that you were prepared for the pudgy dragon, but at least the Mini Cooper was still a surprise.
While none of the Critical Role characters (particularly Vox Machina) are in this movie, when we meet the sorcerer while he’s trying to steal people’s valuables during his magic show, he makes a Fresh Cut Grass joke which is referencing one of the characters from Critical Role’s current campaign! Specifically Sam’s character, the guy who plays Scanlan in TLOVM!
Also, D&D characters from a 80s-90s animated series (teens who got isekai’s into the realm) were the group or competitors that made it to the cage in the arena games.
Y'all calling that man Miguel is taking me out! 😂
lol for real though they must be related!
-Adison
Another great movie and another great reaction. EDN is so responsive to their fans. Poor Jarnathon.
My man! Much love!!!!
-Adison
So yeah, apparently the fat dragon Themberchaud was improvised by Gary Gygax (creator of D&D) when his cat jumped onto the table they were using to play a session of D&D.
Ooooo I love playing D&D, so glad you decided to react to this!
I'm so glad you guys did this one!
🙏🏾
-Adison
*Old Bay mentioned*
Marylander sense activated.
Merlin-da
There's a little bit of a WoT connection here, as the same composer, Lorne Balfe, did the music for both. It's most noticeable during Holga's big fight in the armory towards the end. There's a lot of similarity in the sound for that particular piece.
Nice! I didn't know. Love that!
Mr. Balfe has been staying busy and I love that for him and for my listening!
He cremated his wife, so I'm not sure how resurrection works at that point. Not really sure there is a not horrifying result in raising ashes. That being said: RAISE HOLGA!
I don't play D&D so am not familiar with the specifics but I believe the rule of thumb goes something like:
1 - "Raise" = brings a person back from death, but only if their body is still generally intact and the cause of death was recent (e.g. a mortal injury)
2 - "Resurrect" = Calls a person back from death, requiring only that the caster has access to their remains (which are used as material to construct their resurrected body)
3 - "True resurrect" = Calls a person back from death with "no questions asked", requiring only knowledge of the individual to be revived; it will create a new body for them if needed
There are some technicalities and finer points, most notably that the deceased person is able to refuse being resurrected and remain in their afterlife.
OMG I'm so excited for this! I didn't know you guys were doing this 😍
Yep yep!!! Good to hear from you by the way! I already know you probably are a big fan of this movie!
-Adison

28:47 yea man, crazy plan is how most D&D games go. that transition was pretty sick though.
So great to see you guys do this movie! I really enjoyed your earlier WoT reactions, so it's good to see you guys doing this one.
I appreciate you! This movie has been on my to-do list for a while because so many people were telling me how good it was. I just wished we had checked it out earlier.

-Adison
‘He can’t smell nothin’ 💀💀💀💀
Please review Percy Jackson and the Olympians..... it's so good and the books are amazing
One of the things I love about this movie is that it's accessible to non-D&D players. That the story stands on it's own. I love that it foreshadowed the Holga resurrection moment well enough that you knew what he was facing when it came up. But it bothers me that you so wanted the Bard and Holga to be in a romantic relationship. ...I mean, they could have written it that way. It might have made a tighter story arc... ...but I think it would have made it feel more like a normal story and not a D&D story. Because romance isn't simple in a D&D story.
The thing is, when a group is playing D&D, it's a table of friends and often some of them have real life familial relationships. And the group is playing an assortment of characters that may or may not be related to/have previous relationships with each other. So, play acting a romantic relationship between player characters can be dicey and possibly very uncomfortable, depending on who the players of the characters are. So a lot of times, even when a normal story would do a romantic arc between two characters, it's not fun to play that in a D&D campaign. I know there are some romance arcs in Vox Machina, but those players are professional actors/voice actors. They have practice and the willingness lean into the crazy. Where armature players are more easily made uncomfortable. Which kills the fun.
And on a certain level, I'm rather insulted that you aren't OK with a woman being able to be good, reliable "I've got your back" type friend with a guy without it having to be sexy. =/ I mean really? As if that's the only way women are allowed to interact with men. 🙄I mean, Holga didn't ask to be resurrected. She died a great barbarian death. Much glory. Very cool. Saving her friends. Time for the player to design their next character. It was the Bard's decision, and he made it for his daughter's sake. And that was a great character moment for him as a dad, because he hadn't been putting his daughter's interests first. I don't see why such a lovely father/daughter/friend moment should be trivialized by trying to insist that Holga is obligated no to find the guy sexy. =/
Great stuff - WOT is a bit DnD - just saying
Wife.
