Ever notice how MOST big actors never do any voice but their own? Sean Connery sounded exactly the same, never did an American or Australian accent, or even just a different guy. Tommy Lee Jones...Always the exact same voice & speaking style. Samuel Jackson is just an actual crackhead terrorist they hired right off the street, no joke.
Ah ha ha ha. I wish the technical jargon to prevent Hanks' suicide went on for another ten minutes: "You told me last time I had to points and spells to fly! You're railroading this experience, man!"
I remember when this Mazes and Monsters TV movie when it came out - I was in jr. high. All us D&D geeks were appalled at the way they tried to make the kids with the highest GPAs in school look like gullible idiots. It took nearly another 10 years before I could take Tom Hanks seriously.
Tom Hanks owes all us Satanic Panic survivors an apology. Wouldn't mind getting reimbursed for having to re-buy all those D&D books I had to replace years later, either. Man, that wasn't cheap! /shakes fist at Tom Hanks haha
The funniest part is that so many D&D players turned into commie terrorist skits o'frenix, cosplaying as furries or whatever. And Tom Hanks is friends w/100s of child rapists. Definite poopy-dicker.
The fake tears were more real than real tears. I can't believe they didn't elect him President Of Acting after this. I still cry today when I think of this legendary scene.
For anyone looking for context as to the intent of this movie. It was a movie meant to insight fear about table top games like Dungeon and Dragons. While Tom Hank's character does have mental problems, it's not the movies reason for WHY he is the only one that loses it. It's because the game literally warped his ability to tell fantasy from reality. However, this was made my people who only feared D&D, they had no idea HOW the game worked or WHY one would play it. It was based/inspired by a comic series made by "christians" that was intended to scare the literal HELL out of people from playing, where DM's were not only cult leaders, but they also had batman style secret doors in their parents houses leading to underground labyrinths where they did CULTY things. You don't go into a room with only sparse candle lighting, you can't see what you're rolling. Playing the game isn't a archaic method of group therapy, you play for the same reason "normal" people watch the football game. You play to hang out with your friends and unwind. Not all people who play are dysfunctional misfits. If your character dies, it doesn't take that long to literally "roll" up another character of the same level. OR you can pull a long lost twin sibling and keep the same character sheet. But even if you did start over at level one, you WILL get mad experience points quickly because of what everyone else is doing. They start by playing a table top game, they end LARPING! there is a difference! LARPING is the dark side of the force and a destroyer of ones wallet. Standard Tabletop, I got my dice and paper and pencil and that's all i need. I only spend what i need to. My character, here this quarter sized washer with a small print out of a face on top of it is my character.
As a Christian it will always amaze me that anyone ever took D&D that seriously. I know the satanic panic existed and all, but I've never met one religious person who legitimately believed it was a gateway to the devil. Played it with lots of religious people, though.
@@LuxAeterna22878 Depends your age. My parents bought in (amusingly, they had no problem with playing the exact same type of games on the Nintendo - they did not see the correlation). My wife's parents still believe it's a gateway to evil (not unlike Yoga). The Media is largely to blame here - as in most things in modern times. They are financially incentivized to play into hysteria and outrage.
@@Sakyosha Fair enough! I grew up in a pretty liberal Christian home so they didn't care. At least a quarter of the people I played with were Christian. By "the same exact type of games on Nintendo", I assume you mean rpgs? That's a fair a point about the media. God knows that that they'll completely ignore the reasonable and tolerant people that make up any demographic and focus on the crazy ones. There a few sites like the Good News Network that only publish positive stories, but they don't get the attention they deserve.
@@LuxAeterna22878 My mother was an avid player of games like Dragon Quest (Dragon Warrior in the US), which if you are unfamiliar is about as pen & paper D&D as you can get for an 8 bit video game system. There was never correlation. Between The Legend of Zelda, Dragon Warrior, and Final Fantasy - to games like D&D and Magic: The Gathering (which she had a problem with too). She literally could not see the forest from the trees. Same time, I wasn't allowed really to listen to anything post 1970s - insisting every lyric must be pored over before I was allowed to listen to anything (so long, Metallica/Megadeth, or really anything else). Nowadays, she's not really religious (where as I have become more so). She has some pretty sad views on the world and God, but doesn't really cop to buying into the 80's hysteria - or putting it off as "everyone was". Wife's parents are Lutherans in a very conservative church. They don't just look at modern media as being satanic, they look at innocuous things like "Leathercraft" as being somehow tainted with paganism. No idea. It's hard to pass onto the children that no, Christians don't have to be sour, miserable grumps in all things....
Dude guided a broken spacecraft back to Earth, got a Medal of Honor from Vietnam for saving people, and I also read he was a train guard and a cowboy at one point.
as a child of the 80's .. i was taught that this is what happens when you play D&D. I'm 46 and playing Divinity 2 right now and not jumping off buildings so....
Well to be fair to them, it was originally meant to BE an anti-D&D movie. This was based on the book based on the stories of kids killing themselves over D&D and stuff, and came out at a time when media and parents were in a frenzy about the 'dangers' of it.
Also a stupid line: Robbie realizes he's a "Holy Man" class of character so he shouldn't have a girlfriend, so he breaks up with her. "A Holy Man walks alone!" thunders the Great Hall, a mysterious figure in a ball of light, chiding Robbie and the Dungeons & Dragons-players of the world for even presuming they should have girlfriends..."Play with your Dragon, instead!" thunders the Great Hall. No, just kidding about the last part.
Most friends would have left them in the dirt despite his mental illness… but these friends actually care and utilize the tools that he is familiar with to help bring him back to reality. There is so many statistical moves in DND or any tabletop game. It’s crazy but I still like listening to it and watching it.
"Con...Controller?" Next level acting...The fake tears were more real than real tears! I can't believe they didn't elect him President Of Acting after this. I still cry today when I think of this legendary scene.
This was a big thing back then. I played D&D at school. They had this on as an after school special to *warn* parents how dangerous, devil worshipping blah blah blah it was. Same with heavy metal albums.
Right. I actually thought that the movie was far more critical of the police and Robbie's relatives, who were extremely quick to jump to outrageous conclusions about the game (and got nowhere) instead of dealing with the obvious truth: that Robbie was a deeply sad person. In the end I think the people who label this an "anti dnd" movie haven't really watched it.
I have watched it. It was supposed to be an anti-D&D movie, but the problem is the people who wrote it also tried to tell an actual story (see: tried), and they kind of ended up working against the point. It always felt like a clash of 'what we wanted to make' and 'what we were told to make.' And yes, I am replying to a 7 year old comment.
@@prince_nocturne --- it's comical to look back at the "Satanic Panic" bullshit going down in the 80's --- remember that 60 Minutes segment about D&D? They were trying to portray the game as some kind of serious psychological mind-fuck on vulnerable teens. Although I will admit that killing off some of my fav characters did mess with my head for a couple weeks back then LOL.
I can't believe this only has 3,000 hits. Usually something like this gets a million hits easy. It's short. It's embarrassing for Tom Hanks. It's all those perfect things.
This is my testimony as a hardcore übernerd and Fourth-Level Secret Master of Fandom. The only "supernatural" thing I ever saw about a Dungeons & Dragons game was that each player brought in about seven or eight 2-litre bottles of soft-drinks and by the end of the evening they were all drained. This I attest as true and correct. If you think I'm lying, no: I'm Neutral Good.
For more anti-D&D stuff that directly names the game, you could try the TV movies or mini-series "Honor Thy Mother" and "Cruel Doubt" which came within months of each other in 1992. "Cruel Doubt" had a young Gwyneth Paltrow in it. Both were based on the 1988 murder of Lieth Von Stein. It was said the son hired 2 friends to help him kill his father and mother for the inheritance, so they could all play D&D endlessly. They made fake pages from the D&D books and showed it on camera (unethical!)
